20k miles, haven't done any maintenance, what do you recommend?
Hey guys,
So I have an Evo X GSR 2010. Purchased jan 2011. I've gone through the maintenance schedule and to me it seems like I had to take the car in to the dealership every 5k miles. Well I haven't done so..... what do you guys recommend I get done? flush any fluids etc? My driving style is not aggressive. I drive speed limit and the car's been max revved about 6 times in its lifetime so far. I change the oil myself about 3-4k mile intervals. I changed the air filter to a stock sized K&N and just clean it every year. Been rotating the tires, still on my stock advans, they're almost bald will change the soon. Any input would be highly appreciated. Thank you. |
You should get an award for getting 20k miles on the stock advans. I'm like you, I don't drive my car very hard, but my stock tires had to be replaced after 14k miles.
How are your brake pads? Last month I had my rotors shaved and I had new brake pads installed. I'm at 21k miles right now. Edit to say: you posted this in the Evo 1-9 forum. Maybe the mods will be kind and move this for you... |
I would just suggest going through the recommended list for maintenance and inspections. Just go down the list and knock out each recommended thing.
Thread link for the EVO X found here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/mi...ads-index.html I myself just hit 19k miles on my 9 and did oil, transmission, transfer case, rear diff and coolant + sent all oils to Blackstone for analysis. I also had the annoying crank sensor blade issue, so while in there I replaced all belts with gates racing lineup and replaced all idlers & tensioners with OEM or Gates parts. Also did a standard visual inspection on everything else, brakes, suspension, tire wear etc etc |
