At 60,000 miles (96,000km) it's essentially a huge inspect (look for problems) list:
--Looking for problems-- Inspect air filter element Inspect ball joints Inspect brake calipers and wheel cylinders Inspect brake lines and hoses Inspect brake linings/drums and brake pads/discs Inspect brake pad/shoe thickness Inspect chassis nuts and bolts for looseness or damage Inspect coolant, brake & washer fluid levels Inspect drive belt for damage, adjust tension if required Inspect drive shaft boots Inspect dust covers Inspect engine coolant Inspect engine valve clearance (auditably) Inspect exhaust pipes and mountings Inspect fuel lines and connections, fuel tank band and fuel tank vapor vent system hoses Inspect fuel tank cap gasket Inspect lights, horn & wipers for proper function Inspect radiator, condenser and/or intercooler Inspect shock absorbers for looseness, damage, or leakage Inspect steering gear box Inspect steering linkage and boots Inspect tires & adjust pressure as required, including spare Inspect transmission fluid or oil Lubricate locks, latches, and hinges Rotate tires = Dealer cost: $210? or $0 DIY cost --Actual replacement-- Replace cabin air filter ($10 DIY/$30 dealer) Replace engine oil and oil filter ($20 DIY/$40 dealer) Replace transmission fluid ($40 DIY/$120 dealer) = $190 dealer replacement costs or $70 DIY cost |
