Default C6 Service questions

Hi All,
I have a 2007 C6 coupe,manual Corsa Sport and Z51, with only 11k miles.
I know to change the oil yearly, will probably change tires to PS2 EMT also this year.
Car is stored in winter with CTEK charger.
What other service needs to be done? Brake fluid, coolant drain and fill? Anything else other than dealer look over?

Not married to the dealer, but feel at least they ought to know how to service properly.

Do you have an owners manual? All of that is in there.

Hello,

I bleed the brakes every 2 years (quick and easy)

Flush radiator every 5 years (Dexacool)

Load test battery every year

Change Cabin air filter every year

Change clutch master cylinder fluid every year (suck out with turkey baster)

Treat the interior with a good cleaner conditioner

Check level of all fluids

That should keep your Corvette reliable!
