baci Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 No clue if 30k maintenance was done or not. Are there things I can check to see if it was done? When I had the oil changed they said my other fluids "looked clean". Im wondering if I should get my spark plugs(that seems like a 60k thing?) and other fluids changed. I have to take it in to get my tires rotated and have my alignment checked(front drivers side is wearing on the outer edge fast) was wondering if I should have them do more. What does everyone think? It has 47k on it now. Im not a huge car tech, so for time and sanities sake I like to have someone else do the repairs unless its as simple as a oil change(which i usually dont do lol).

careercadaver Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I'd wait till 60K for the spark plugs unless they are suspect. What else is involved in the 30K service? Might be able to check the carfax and see if it was reported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdzowner Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 or you could buy it and do the service for piece of mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemingway Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 You bought it used, right? Do you know where it was first purchased (dealership)? If so, it was likely under warranty at the time and performed by the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooslick Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 See if the brake fluid looks new. If it looks like its been changed, there's a good chance the 30k service was performed. Looking to see if the air filter is clean is another tipoff. TS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZP Installs Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Whenever you pickup a new to you car, assume none of the major maintenances were done. That's the safest bet. -Mike Paisan http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/91072632.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/145749898/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/paisan/image/133406601.jpg http://www.whiteline.com.au/images/logos/perf1.jpg 11+ Years Maintaining, Modifying and Educating TriState Subaru Enthusiasts.
