I swapped the cabin air filter, but is there an "engine air filter" that needs to be replaced often?
do you have a aftermarket intake on your car? if not and its stock just get a aftermarket setup....ull love it KnN is a good brand...get the pipe and the filter...not just the filter...

Check pulley, inspect/replace serpentine belt, flush coolant if you feel like it maybe could until 105k.

My clutch lasted about 175k before the throw out bearing exploded. Just don't ride/slip the clutch a lot and honestly, you shouldn't have a problem. Albeit most of my driving was highway, a large percent of driving was also done in SoCal traffic.
