Do you know what I need to check follwing to the preventive maintenance schedule? On my way to the dealer to change oil($25), I plan to ask them to do preventive maintenance. I am worried to be overcharged.

The regular maintenance on our car is high priced. If you want to drive your car for over 200k miles keep on the maintenance DUH. What'd you expect when you bought a foreign sports car...?

I'll try to remember to look up the recommended maint. at work tomo and post it.

You can do couple of flushes, like, radiator, brake fluid, power steering fluid... etc. No major belts or transmission flush needed at all. read your service manual
