2nd year service?

Just about time for me to bring my car in for it's second year service and state inspection. Anyone know what's included on the second one? Aside from my yearly oil change? -thanks

It's in your manual buddy. But from memory, if this is your 2nd service AFTER The 1,200-mile one, you should get new diff and tranny fluid, on top of your engine oil. I'd assume engine air filter too, and possibly the microfilters (A/C ones). And check your wipers; you can ask for replacement at this time as well, I believe. All dealers pretty much follow what's in your manual. Good luck.

That all assumes it's second full service, not counting any low-mileage oil change, etc.

I guess it would be my third service then... Already had my one year, which was after my 1,200 mile one.

I'm figuring just oil, and filters....
