I just bought a 2000 S40. It has 36000 miles. What maintenance should I do now? What can I expet from this car. I love the 95 850 GLT I bought 18 months ago. Thanks.

    ......Jerry, the previous owner should have had the plugs changed at 30k,ditto the air filter. It wouldn't hurt to have the brake fluid changed if not already done! Most Bricksters are doing Syn oil changes anywhere between3-6k and regular oil usu at 3k. Cabin filter gets changed at 15k intervals +-depending on what kind of junk they drive thru.....check the manual and you can see what you may or may not be able to do yourself........oh yeah take a peak at the brake pads.........hope this helps, Bill

      Thanks Bill. I will register the car this week. It was serviced at a local dealer. I will get an oil change and ask him about the service records. The previous owner didn't seem to handy. I can do some simple jobs and restore its appearance.
