Approaching 100k (Maintenance)

Just wanted to know what I should do for the 100k maintenance.

I change my oil every 3k with Royal Purple 5W30.
Just did some FI cleaner.
Had the brake fluid changed.
Changed the rear diff fluid at 60k
Belts changed at 60k
had the tranny flushed at 75k

Debating on changing
coolant
PS fluid
coolant hoses


Am I missing anything?

THx

I've attached the maintenance schedule from the service manual (see attached)

From the above list it seems like you might really be lacking in maintenance. "Changed rear diff fluid at 60k" .. that fluid is supposed to be replaced at 30k.

I would advise checking the oil analysis over on my350z. The RP 5w-30 tested to be one of the worst tested oils so far. There are much better performing oils for similar or less money. Have you done the plugs yet? If you are at 100k and not done that or fuel filter then I would definetely put those at the top of the list.

I bought the car with 50k on it and I changed the plugs then. As for the rear diff fluid it was nice and clean at 60k. I put synthetic fluid in there. I have used seafoam twice already I do it about every 10k. I suck it up through the PCV into the throttle and then she smokes like all hell. As for the oil I was not aware of the RP being bad. Will look into that.

Thx
