Do your oil change, most of the checking that isnt invasive should be free or cost very little. Taking off the wheels and then checking suspension and brakes will be costly. You could pay the deal to do it if your really unsure of the condition of your brakes. You will likely be needing to change your pads soon so you should think about doing a full brake service.

For now check your tranny or do your tranny flush. I recommend going with a Synthetic fluid for your CVT so you no longer have to change at the severe schedule. The dealer may force you to change your cvt fluid now. If you have a manual I think this is around the time you have to do it anyway.
