Default Maintenance Questions

Hey guys,

I used to have a link to a page with all the maintenance specs for my car, butI lost it lol.. It's right around 45.5k now, and I feel like im forgetting some little things.. I got brand new pads and rotors at 30 or 33k and they're fine, and the tires and suspension are all good. I change the oil and filter myself with Mobil 1, and I also changed the fuel filterand tranny fluid at 30k. So pretty much am I only looking at coolant flush, spark plugs, maybe a belt and clutch in the future? If the moderator God feels that this isn't tech then move me please as I will be to lazy to retype it [8D]

Thanks,
Shawn

you pretty much have everything. Wouldn't hurt to change the power steering and Diff. fluids as well. Clutch is the one thing that isn't an 'easy' maintaince item, but there's people here with over 100k on a clutch.

+1 and as ya posted above...flush the radiator. If you have the iridium spark plugs...they are supposed to be good to 100K miles.
