I have an 06 BRM Sedan and have some stuttering when trying to accelerate hard. We have had it a year and It has a new timing belt and pulleys, new DMF and no major issues, also a good cam shaft. The car has 115k miles on it.

I just got the Fuel filter in the mail and will replace that before asking for more help with stuttering,

What are some other things to inspect on the car as preventative maintenance vs those that should be addressed when there is an issue preferably in the engine bay area? EGR, Turbo, Intercooler/intake buildup?

Appreciate any tips, and shout out if there are any guru's in the Baltimore area :)

Do any catchup maintenance then regular periodic maintenance then issues as they come up. Check the trusted mechanics thread for local mechanics if any.
