change oil and filter, check and/or replace the air filter, change tranny fluid, check brakes, check all fluids. Its not nothing major.

isn't the tranny fluid suppose to go for 40k on the factory stuff, then 20k every change after that? I forget

Personally I think 20k is kind of quick for a new set of brakes, but I guess if you drive in the city, you might run them down that quick.

if you have an auto, change tranny fluid every 10k.

Ahhh... I see thanks. But does the intial factory fluid stay in for 20k?

hmm, in the owners manual it also says i need to inspect the suspension components. what should i be looking out for?

i guess my manual is misprinted because it says you replace transmission fluid (manual) at 120k miles. hmm..

oh btw, i'm confused...so there's an air filter and dust/pollen filter under the hood? or are they the same?

The dust/pollen filter is behind the glovebox.

no it's not a misprint, that 120 is for those of us who drive on government controlled conditions test tracks at constant rates of speed.

ok seriously how do you check the suspension because the scheduled maintenance in the owner's manual says to do so at 20 miles....

nothing to check really. i'm at 40k and no problems. all they do is nothing. if you get a good mechanic they will make sure the bolts and stuff are tight.
