30K service 850 1999

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N. on  Thu Feb 21 11:26 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Front brake pads should be checked -- they may be near end of life
at 30K and might need replacement.

Check the upper engine mount for cracking.

Dealer throws in a bottle of chevron fuel injector cleaner at 30K.
If you have been using mid-grade or premium you don't need it.

The throttle should be cleaned. Dirt and gunk builds up causing
throttle to stick a bit when it initially opens.

Oil filter gaskets often leak and a new one is $2.00.

The cover for the coolant overflow i probably a gray one. The
new blue ones don't crack as easily. Might consider replacing
it while doing the work with newer one.

Check the door hinge bolts and snug them up.
