Ref's asked, travel plans, Coupe, 200qw



Trying to get some service accomplished quickly to prepare Coupe for trip
south towing small trailer and 200qw for trip south via CA.

Coupe:
Front brakes, pads & rotors.
Blau: ATE rotors, Remza pads (European made)   ..... $149
Any alternatives I should consider?

200qw:
72k miles
plugs, air filter last replaced at 30k
no record of fuel filter, OXS, cap, or rotor replacement.
no record of cooling or brake systems flush.
Rear brake pads, rotors replaced at 55k.  Ticket shows 1 unit of brake fluid

What is change interval on plugs, cap, rotor, OXS, fuel & air filters?
Pulled plugs last night; 3 weren't tight.  Looked funky (design) but good.
I think I may go whole hog just so I know what's in there.
Blau: plugs $15.95, OX sensor $119
Already have some new Castrol LMA waiting to go in.
Any better prices available on plugs and OXS?

TIA very much  :)

BTW.  I will take the Coupe down to Greenville next week (Thursday).
Then fly back and take the 200 out to CA and back to Greenville to arrive
by May 15.  Plan on passing thru Denver, Durango, Flagstaff, Phoenix, then
Dallas, and Jackson, MS.  

Bruce (MannLaw):  Would love a ride in the wagon if you're gonna be around.
:-)

On the road again...
