Get the service book out and check every service form zero to 130000 miles. get a note book and jot down any changes from form to form. 1000 mile may say oil change , enter this , 5000 mile service may say , oil change and oil filter , enter oil filter, do each form and you will have a factory list of what should have been done.
A tune up for sure, and a timing chain is past due,, valve adjustment , normal parts for a regular tune up ,, and an oil change and trans service would be suggested

i would have everything checked, the most important one would be the timing belt, this all depends on the engine in this car, with 113,000 miles the timing belt would be the first thing if it has one. the next thing would be an oil change and ****** fluid flush and the filter if its automatic, if standard shift then just the oil because this ****** has no filter. iwould tune it up and have the cabin filter changed, check tires and rotate them and an alignment, have the brakes checked and adjusted if needed, have the shocks and struts checked and the suspension checked,the coolant flushed and brake fluid and power ssteering fluid checked and flushed if needed. the car would and should be checked over completly, this is a good car but maintenance should be done, this will help the life of the car and also you just bought the car, you would like it to last. there are some people that never do anything and car lasts a while but when thing start to go it costs so much because of the lack of upkeep. hope this helps.good day.
