I've had my car for 4 years, and driven 55,000 miles (total 114,000 miles). I have changed the radiator coolant, auto trans fluid, timing belt, other belts, air filter, spark plugs, but I have NEVER changed the power steering, brake fuild, or fuel filter.
Anyone know the interval for this changes and is a fuel system flush needed? I use fuel system cleaner, and injector cleaner every 3000 miles. Thanks exx This post has been edited by exxtractor: Oct 26, 2004 - 11:22 PM |

If your power steering fluid looks like slightly watered-down chili, it's time to change it. Until then you're not going to kill anything. If you really love your car, change it before it gets that thick.
Fuel filter I think is recommended every 10k miles. So do it now. --------------------  |
