Change the oil. There, I just saved you 60 bucks!
I just got a notice from Town North that it's time to do a 10K mile preventative maintenance. Interestingly, they don't say what's included in the 10K service....
It got me to thinking... does anyone have a good preventative maintenance schedule to follow assuming moderate to light autocrossing for my '04?
Thanks!

OH, and the oil filter too!!!
That's a given, but thanks for pointing it out ( )Originally Posted by Majik
I bet they also "inspect fluid levels". That is $30 in labor all by itself!
While I thank everyone for their input... even Sammmmmm... the point ( ) of the post was the second part:

Change the oil. :P Flush your brake fluid once or twice a season. Change all your other fluids once a season. Keep brake pads on it.Originally Posted by Dave04
The short version of the miata.net plan as adopted by most of us seems to be:
Engine Oil changes: frequently
Brake fluid flush: yearly and as needed
Clutch fluid: flush whenever you do your brakes
Transmission/Diff: Yearly
Coolant: Every other year
Belts (especially timing) and hoses: Every 4 years
I suppose if you drive more than 15k miles, you might subsitute 15k miles for 1 year
Maybe 4 wheels aren't so bad after all... wickett.org
