your owners manual has the maintenance schedule and the mileage they should be done at. Our engines are "designed" to go at least 100K without major service.
But there's always things you can do to help:
* Lube any chassis components that have grease 'certs'... (I'm not sure if we have any)
* Rotate tires at least once a year (maybe more if you're already at 60K
)
* Change oil every 6 months or if your oil life light goes to below a certain % you desire (for synthetic oil)
* Use synthetic oil...holds up better in extremes
* When starting a cold car, let the idles drop to ~1K. When 1st starting it'll be higher than that, I always let it drop naturally (not really maintenance, but good practice)
* Clean/replace your cabin air filter every oil change
* Wipers/replace every oil change if well used...or sooner
* Change engine air filter every oil change (if we're talking every 6 months)
* Belts and hoses, check them regularly
* Check battery terminals for any buildup of corrosive material (what's that white stuff called?)
* Brakes - when rotating tires, check pad thickness of the fronts. If you feel a pulsation on braking have your front rotors turned first... if that still persists, they can turn drums too. (The rear drums should last quite awhile, as the car does most braking with the front pads). But you can remove the drum cover (parking brake off
) and inspect/blow out the rear brake components
* The spark plugs and coil pack are designed to last at least 100K, and unless you're having rough idle issues or such I'd leave them till then. But you can pull the coil pack off and inspect the spark plug valley for any signs of oil seepage
* Doesn't hurt to have your fluids flushed at some point... I'd say coolant for now for sure if you've not done it. If you an automatic, check the dipstick for signs of a burnt smell...dark brown color. AT Fluid should be pink'ish when it's clean.
* Not really needed now, but a brake fluid flush at some future point will help too. Brake fluid will absorb H20 over time.... DOT 5 I don't think does as it's some weird formulation (not to use on our cars!)
Besides that I'll let the gang add their thoughts... I'm sure there's a lot!
I'd also use a good fuel system cleaner at least once a year and take a highway drive in 5th (higher rpms = more velocity of the airflow to help burn off and remove carbon deposits and varnishes)...for a 10-15 minute drive.
I'm only at 33K in my 2013. I've had the waterpump replaced, replaced the crappy OEM rear shocks, the oil pan gasket re-sealed, and I put a rubber gasket under the front of the rear hatch to solve an OEM air hiss noise....besides that...trouble free!
