What's your routine auto maintenance schedule?
Posted on 1/24/15 at 1:07 pm

Some folks follow the Manufacturers recommendations to the letter. Others perceive this as overkill.
Currently, I'm doing oil change every 5,000 miles, rotate tires every 10,000.
What about coolant?
transmission flush?
brake fluid
water pump, assorted belts
air filter?
Your thoughts?

I maintain all that myself except oil changes and tire rotations.
Oil changes every 3k
Tires rotates every other oil change

When I think about it 
Speaking of, my air filter does need replacing.

Oil/ oil filter: every 5 to 6,000 miles
Air filter: every 12,000 miles
Tire rotation: every 12,0000 miles
Spark plugs: every 45,000 miles
Will probably service the transmission at 80,000 per the owner's manual. Still on the original brake pads and rotors at 62,000 right now...that'll probably be my next big maintenance item.

I go by dealership schedule as not to void my extended warranty and to get the 2 sets of tires included with the purchase of my jeep.

Dealer recommended service at the dealer for me.
Depending on what you drive you should probably rotate tires more often especially on an SUV. Once tires cup they are done as far as ride quality goes.

I get free oil changes for life of car, so synthetic every 6 months, just bought a new set of tires and get free rotation every 10k miles, everything else I let the car tell me.

Transmission in my book is every 15k, sounds legit, so I do this....
Oil at 4-5k, tires 10k
Wax about 4 times a year!
I flush the brakes every brake job, prolly should be more

I bought a new Tahoe a few months ago. It is at 6000 miles and acording to the computer system oil life is still above 20%
