recently just brought a 2000 AP1. it only has 11k on it. just wondering see what kind of maintance i should do at this point.
thanks in advance

Nishant

changing all fluids (oil, tranny, coolant, diff, brake) would be a start

check the air filter, replace if needed

check in cabin filter as well

check under the car for any rust or odd wear

chinkieboy

i don't think theres anythin rust..but i will check the rest. thanks. would it make any diff if i use full synth. 10w-30 engine oil??

Nishant

nope, go right ahead

chinkieboy

u sugguest using red line or royal purple??? or??? something else?

Nishant

amsoil, red line, royal purple, mobil 1, castrol...all good with amsoil rated #1 but quite expensive

i personally have been using mobil 1 syn since 22k miles, works great

LAS2K

chinkieboy

Engine: 10w30

Tranny: Honda MTF or GM Syncromesh Friction Modified

Differential: Almasol LE-607 (do not buy honda diff fluid, they do not carry the right one)

Brake and Clutch Fluid: Honda Dot 3 (if you track the car or plan on it, then ATE Superblue or Motul)

Coolant: Honda coolant
