Hello Can anyone tell what the 60k mile maintinece does? my dealer jut replace the heads and valves because of a broken timing belt, my car has 58k miles i would like to know if i should pay an extra $500 and do the 60k maintinace or just do it somewhere else. Thanks.



Geezus Joe - you were just at the dealer - why didn't you ask that question then?

Your owner's manual will tell you all the maintenance requirements for your vehicle. Each dealer puts different things in their maintenance services, so you'll have to ask the individual dealer for a list of items serviced. You shouldn't need to have the coolant changed. Hopefully, the dealer that put the heads on offered to (or did replace) the spark plugs for the price of the parts since you were so close to 60k and they already had them out of the car. If not, you'll still need to do that.

What year/model/engine? Consider yourself lucky that it didn't happen with a couple thousand more miles on car. bill
