Nope, Keep the oil changed and ""full"" and keep an eye on the water pump (You don't want coolant in the oil do you?), and water outlet. My 2.4 is at 130k and still gets rev to 5500 at lease one a day. My 01 grand am had a hard life since i got it at 32k.

It has way less things to go wrong, unlike the 3400. But you can fix everything on the side of the road on a 3400 with a $9 socket set.
