bringing new(used) car up to scratch
Ive had my 07 mps 3 for 10 days now. Its got 53xxx and was last serviced a year ago at 41xxx. It was the 2.5 year or 50k service.(got the logbook).
The maintenance schedule thread shows that the 40k service completed about 2 years ago includes brake fluid and gearbox oil so they should be ok, but given my car is over 7 years old I think I should prolly do both a radiator flush/refill and the plugs even tho they not due till 80 and 100xxx respectivly correct?
The air filter is due to be replaced too but im keen on an SRI anyway. Other than that there doesnt seem to be any more parts or fluid required untill "body fuel pump" at 150xxx or 7.5 years-should i do that now too?
I cant find any mention of a fuel filter at all! whats the go there? And no mention of timing chain either, surely that is part of scheduled maintenance ussualy around 100xxx?
While im still getting used to driving it, i feel theres a good chance one or more of my engine mounts are stuffed as i seem to get the odd clunk when changing gear especially 1st-2nd. Also the front brake discs are quite badly lipped on the edges so likely they can go too. Wheel balance and alignment wouldnt hurt either.
Anything ive missed?
