Preventative maintenance vs. foolish tinkering? 700

Hi folks,

Being a gearhead, but being new to vehicle ownership, I wanted to tap you all for some advice on how neurotic to be about maintenance.

My Volvo is in good mechanical shape (except for the starter, AC, and muffler mounts, from my prev. posts), and gets me where I want to go - and in style, too. :)

Do you folks recommend keeping a paper schedule and going by that? Do you do the 'sound and feel' schedule, only fixing things as they show signs of failure?

Thanks,

Ari
