Change Your Fluids Peroidically
Posted by: Michael Morin | Car Information, Maintenance
Replace ALL the fluids in the car at least every 30,000 miles or every two years.
This would include transmission fluid, coolant, brake and clutch fluid, and differential and transfer case fluids if applicable. If your car is a Saab or another car or truck with an especially expensive or vulnerable transmission, we recommend changing the fluid once a year. We recommend a complete transmission fluid exchange in the case of automatics (see "equipment"). If the car sits for long periods of time, we recommend replacing the coolant every year.
