I've got 68K miles on my EL and I thought I better be doing some scheduled maintenance on things that are easily overlooked. I'm NOT talking about oil/filter changes, air filter, brakes, tires, fluids etc.. I'm talking about coolant, transmission, front & rear axle, transfer case ... kind of thing.
So I looked in my Owners Manual and to my surprise ... not sure I need to do anything. The first big item seems to be spark plugs at 97.5K. Engine coolant at 105K. Then at 150K ... ATF & filter, front & rear axle fluid, transfer case fluid, serpentine belt. I'm SHOCKED. Is this really true? Just drive & enjoy?
I seem to recall reading on here things like "holy crap you have 120K on your transmission and never changed the fluid .. its too late now dont touch it". Is that with older vehicles but not Gen 3?
