    30K, what needs to be done?

    Hey,

    Will be approaching 30,000 miles and what do you suggest needs to be changed, replaced, upgraded or drained.

    Thanks in advance.

    Search and you’ll find several posts on this but here is the short list - see manual for more info.

    5 qts Dexron III for the tranny
    3 qts Dexron III for the transfer/TOD
    6 qts. 75-140w for the diffs
    Tranny gasket and filter for 4L30
    Front inner bearing seals
    Wheel bearing grease synthetic
    2 gals antifreeze
    Radiator flush additive
    Fuel filter

    Dealers around here charge around $800 for this - dropping the pan on the tranny and refilling it are the worst parts but doable with a good jack, jack stands, impact wrench and fluid pump.

    Hey all, along these lines ive been searching for a complete maintenance schedule by milage, but havent had any luck. I recently picked up a 99' ebony with 59k on the clock, no books though. Though its practically showroom condition, im not assuming the proper maintenance was done and need to get on it as soon as i can, especially since i just replaced the serpentine belt 200 miles from home.though i was pleasently surprised the vx just didnt up and croak when it snapped, and made it 15 miles with no over heating or noticable power loss even with the headlights on.
    Anyhow, im looking for a proper schedule, including fluids and timing belt replacement intervals, etc.. and dont want to wait until i can find a book..
    So if anyone can point me to a link, or advise me what i should be doing for this, id appreciate it...my searches havent been very fruitfull...
    thanks in advance, this site is awesome!!

    I've seen Vijay's ride in person, it is "hot to death"
    It even matches the color of his VX.
