Regular maintenance milestones

[whiteflamingo]

I just hit 50k miles in my T and have been wondering what the maintenance milestones are, and what parts wear out when.

Check your manual for more info, but basically at 50,000 inspect or replace your air filter, change automatic transmission fluid and filter, change transfer case fluid. Yours may be different than mine, depending on driving conditions and model.

I visually inspect for leaks, tears in boots and anything out of the ordinary (noises) on a regular basis. The front end is my concern. I changed my diff fluid at 30,000 miles. I changed my transfer case fluid more often than the manual says too, at 30,000 miles and I'll change my auto transmission fluid before 50,000 miles.

Since you're in the mid-west I would do what my uncles in MN do. Any bolt you MAY need to loosen in the next 10 years, do it now and spray WD-40 on everything.

I think they are right on target - diff, transfer case and transmission fluids.

If its an 06/07, its pushing 9-10 yrs old and you may want to think about age as well as mileage; brake fluid, coolant, belts, hoses.

Im going to hit 100,000 miles pretty soon and this is what I was going to do,
Oil change
Transmission fluid change
Both diffs fluid change
Transfer case fluid change
Change breaks
Change spark plugs

Anything else?

MAF and throttle body cleaning. Mine gets done about every 10,000 miles.

Replace the trans filter while the trans sump is off. I'd flush the cooling sys and brake fluid at 100K.
