Default 60k tune up

i have an 02 rex thats just over 60k now. as far as preventitive maintnence i've drained and refilled the coolant, changed spark plugs,oil change, and cleaned my air filter. Is there anything else i should do to keep my baby running good? would it be a good idea to change out all of the fluids in the car? like tranny,brake, clutch, and power steering? any kind of suggestions would be appreciated.

thanks

There is no such thing as a "tune up" for your car.

Everything they said.

60K on an 02 thats some low miles. That also equals a lot of laps around the igloo

By "cleaned my air filter," I hope you mean "replaced."

Prolly an oiled air filter.
Is this a seasonal only car (summer or winter only)?

That's actually a little on the high side.
I have an '02 with 40k miles now.
The average yearly accumulated mileage is around 10k...so 50k is average for an '02...and 40k is on the lower side like mine.

Actually 12k is what dealerships use and 15k is the general norm... so it should be at no more than 60k for a dealership trade in or 75k as the standard...

10k... where is that from

i was about to say the same thing... 10k/year is low mileage. 15k/year is what the average american vehicle drives.
