Go on Ebay and buy an owners manual and the factory service manuals with the red covers for your car. And then READ the owners manual.

I thought the service manuals were available for down load on the forum at one time. Does anyone know if this correct?
Found it down the page.

Yeah, I saw some threads earlier where members gave instructions and recommendations on how to change all those fluids by an easy method. I'm not an expert on those things, but I know the ranger method has been discussed a lot. In a lot of cases, a Google search will find the thread quicker and refer you to the forum link. Sometimes using the forum search brings up a lot of extra stuff to weed through.

Here's what I got when I Googled C5 brake fluid change and looked for forum in the choices that came up:

It quotes from the service manual. It's pretty quick and easy to search the forum with Google and seems to narrow down the bs some.
With the low miles on your car, I don't think I'd do anything to the fluids. Others will have opposing views.
