as a daily driver, i would like to have general idea as to when i should change what........ just to keep my heads up
of course, everything is dependent on how you drive your car and the environment, but i am inquiring about general rule of thumb for daily drivers......perhaps, once in a while "peddle to the metal".............
this is what i have gathered so far from this forum in GENERAL......
1) Oil Change: based on synthetic - every 6-7,000 miles or 6 months
first oil change between 1,200 to 2,000 miles recommended
synthetic after 5,000 miles recommended
ester based oil is recommended but not required
2) tires (sports package)
15-20,000 miles
3) brake pads/fluid?
4) spark plugs?
5) transmission oil/other fluids?
6) light bulbs?
7) air filter?
etc.........
Once again, any input would be appreciated and please keep in mind that this is just rule of thumb for daily drivers............
if possible, i would like to know what is recommended vs what is realistically practical........
perhaps, it's too early to inquire about this kind of info, for i do not think there are many members with over 20k miles.....
just for the sake of compilation, i would appreciate if ppl add to the list i have on this page.
as always,
