This is what I got as far as maintenance from the previous owner, he didn't have car very long, he bought it with 52k miles in April of 2010.
Its an 02 LS 6 speed.
Just hit 59100 miles, and changed the rear differential fluid to redline 75w90 today. Took a little less than a quart before it started coming out of the fill hole. Manual says its capacity is 1.1 qt, maybe some built up gunk inside? Glad I changed it cause the old stuff looked like chocolate milk. Little bit of sludge on the magnetic drain plug, but didn't see any large metal chunks.
Tomorrow planning on doing 2 quarts of redline mt-90 in the transmission, inner and outer shift boots, and racing beat dual muffler (shout out to william at track dog!). If I have time, will also be doing stoptech front pads and centric rotors (thanks tire rack), rotating tires, and shell rotella t 5w-40 synthetic oil change. Need a suggestion for oil filter, I assume mazda dealer is my best bet?
Am I forgetting anything else at 60k?
Thanks guys.
Mods can move this, just realized this is in FI miata tech instead of the regular one.
Did the muffler and transmission fluid today, still need to do the rest.
It took less than 2 quarts, so I may put the last little bit in when I do the shift boots during the week.
Got the front pads/rotors done last night, as well as the tire rotation. Not too bad.
Still have shift boots and oil change left to do. Shift boots before the auto-x sunday, oil change maybe after.
Sounds like you are making good progress!
