Hello everybody. Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I did have an account here several years ago, but it timed out, got deleted, forgot U.N., password, whatev. I have a 2004 with 99k on it. I used to drive it back in college while my parents owned it and just recently bought it from them outright. My Parents/I have had it since 36k miles. (somewhere around there i think) Its been a great vehicle and haven't had any problems with it. I got the lowerball joint replaced after the recall. The thing is still stock but not for long now that it is entirely in my possession. My first line of business is to get it sound mechanically. It needs an oil change in like 500 miles and i am thinking about changing fluids.
What fluids need to be replaced? Trans? Differential? others?
Is it worth going to full synthetic or a high mileage oil?
Tires will also need to be replaced before too long. Need to do some more research to decide which way i want to go with those.
Also, my brother has an 05 CRD and lives in the same apt as i do. Kinda fun to park next to each other.
thank you for any info you can lend. i will try to be around as much as possible to learn as much as possible
