Default DIY Fluid and Regular Maintenance Change Posts?

Can we create a sticky for MTF, Differential, oil/filter, clutch and brake fluid changes? Unless I missed it/them, I don't see any yet. Hoping there will be some soon...Maybe that will encourage threads on it.

They're kind of all spread out. I can take the time to make a master thread... but...

Not sure if it's wanted or needed.

Thanks, I'm one of those that would rather DIY than trust the dealer who really doesn't care much about MY car (like I do). Its just another Corvette to them. I'd like to learn from those of us that have already done the work themselves.

Thanks again.

Can anyone else out there chime in if you would also find it helpful?

Here's what I'm hoping someone will do for the C7: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-z...-specific.html
