What Work Is Done for 95,000-Mile Maintenance?

Have you had a tuneup recently?

A 95,000-mile maintenance is a minor service usually; it may also be used as a chance to do any maintenance that was not done on the major service typically done at 90,000 miles.

Recommendations

It is recommended that you replace your car's oil and transmission fueled at 95,000 miles. You should also inspect the car's battery, filters, power steering fluids, and drive shafts for basic wear and tear. You should also have your mechanic do an inspection of belts and hoses and check for any fluid leaks.

Tires

Inspection and maintenance of your car's tires is very important to continue not only at 95,000 miles but every 15,000 miles. At 95,000 miles, you should have your mechanic balance and rotate your tires, as well as perform a visual inspection for wear and tear on the tread, particularly at the end of hot seasons, which are rough on tire tread.

Maintenance List

If you didn't have a 90,000-mile tuneup, the 95,000-mile maintenance is a good time to catch up. This involves having all your fluids and filters replaced, as well as having the timing belt inspected and your spark plugs changed. You may need your hoses and belts replaced; have your mechanic inspect your motor mounts and suspension bushings for wear as well.
