Maintenance for 3 year old vert
hello, everyone....
my vert just turned 3 years young w/ 28k miles on it....it's been trouble free 3 years w/ slight mods, and now i am thinking about giving her some new fluid injections....what fluids need to be changed? & what other things need to be checked?....it would be greatly helpful what types of fluids are recommended....
thanks in advance....happy motoring....

Radiator fluid - Dex-cool Prestone makes it easy with a prediluted jug.
Engine oil, but you should have done it several times already.
brakes system should be flushed. buy some speed bleeders, they turn it into a one person job. Valvoline Synpower DOT 3& DOT4
If a manual transmission change out the clutch fluid...(use the above brake fluid) use a turkey baster to suck out what is in the reservoir and replace it... every week, do it again until the contents of the reservoir look like the fresh fluid.
Transmission fluid and the rear diff oil do not need to be changed yet.
