The owner's manual addresses maintenance items primarily based on mileage not age of vehicle.

After about six years and 26,000 on my 2005 I have been thinking it may be time to change the fuel filter. What do you think? Where is it located?

Also, are there any other maintenance items that a low mileage aging C6 should have done to it?

Other than the GM TSB's I have only changed the oil as required, new tires, a battery, air filter, wiper blades and a cabin filter, That is about it.

there is no fuel filter in a C6, there is a very fine SS screen in the tank, that needs no maint.

R&L's C6

I changed the coolant, brake fluid and air filters on my 05 this year with 14K miles on it.Also put a bottle of Techron in it.

That explains why I can't find a reference to a fuel filter in the maintenace schedule! Thanks for that!

Unless you use very "dirty" fuel, I would wait to change that '05 part, whether it is a screen, filter, or whatever. If it is running well..........

Put a bottle of Techron in it once or twice a year.

change the coolant, brake fluid, clutch fluid, check air filters, and check all other fluids. grease all grease zerks. take a nice long slow look around at everything see if anything is worn-out,broken,or unusal.

Replacing the coolant after five years is a factory recommendation.

And that may be high. By the 6 year mark my Vette would have had the tranny, axle and brake fluid changed also. Brake fluid is neglected in the US but we don't use our brakes like the Europeans do. Condensation (humidity also) is a killer for brake fluid. Wheel alignment is also extremely important on a C6.
