Regular Maintenance Advice for 75k, 82.5k mileage
 
I'm getting ready to perform the regular maintenance on my S80. Any suggestions for the 75k and 82.5k maintenance? I'm totally new to maintaining my own vehicle, so any advice is appreciated (especially where to get parts). Thanks!

the only major change should be spark plugs. That should be changed along with cabin and engine filters ( if its needs to)
And the rest are just the basics like oil and change, and making sure all the fluids are topped up and clean too. And while you are at it tire rotation should also be performed.
As for the parts dont go to the dealer . i know only 2 places. one is IPD USA .com and FCP.com
I got my oil tools from fcp.com and the people were very kind and helped me out with the right tools plus they gave me some dicount too.:).

what year is your S80

Plugs should have been done at 60,000 miles.

Pollen filter is due at 75,000 and so is a brake flush (recommended every two years or 37,500 miles).

Rotation should only be done if needed, as should the air filter.

Tranny fluid?

I asked about tranny fluid, and when my car was in for a oil change, I asked them to check the tranny fluid, it was recommended to change it- which I did, and wow what a difference.
