Beauty about modern EFI engines, there isn't really any "tune up" anymore. You can change plugs, filters, oil but you aren't (can't) adjust timing, change wires, etc. Look in your owners manual at the maintenance schedule and see what it say for your mileage.

Ooh, ooh! I know lots of advice. Never lick a steak knife, when a toaster is orange inside, don't reach in with your fingers and don't fry bacon in the nude. Seriously, just routine maintenance is all you need to do. The old style tune up went out around 1973 when electronic ignition became standard across the board on Mopars. Change the spark plugs at about half of what the owners manual says and have a 4 wheel alignment

Spark plug interval on that engine should be 30,000 miles......16 spark plugs every 15k is gonna get expensive lol.
