15,000 Mile Service List ->1999 GTS ACR

[Irid]

I just purchased a '99 ACR with right around 15k miles. I don't have the owners manual yet (oversight, being mailed to me) but I have some downtime during the holidays and I'd like to go through the 15k service. Searching on yahoo produced the following results, but I'm wondering if they are right ;-) It doesn't seem like much!

Otherwise, it's black with silver stripes and I'm having a ball with it.

Perform the Following at 15000 Miles:
Replace Engine Oil
Replace Engine Oil Filter
Lubricate Chassis
Rotate Tires
Check All Fluid Levels
Inspect Drive Axle Seals
Inspect Exhaust System and Heat Shields
Inspect Steering Operation and Linkage
Inspect Brake Pads, Linings, Rotors and Drums
Inspect Air Cleaner Filter
Inspect and Adjust Drive Belts
Inspect and/or Repack Wheel Bearings
Inspect Battery
Inspect Engine Cooling System

That seems like PLENTY to me.

I would change EVERY fluid to establish a clean baseline. Although the mileage isn't much it is 4 years or 5 model years out.

That's what I did on mine and I do it with every used car I have ever bought.

I would do the following:

Rear axle - Mopar High Performance Synthetic Axle Lube SAE 75 W/140 (MS-8985) Rear Axle Additive Mopar Gear Additive
(Mopar #4318060AB)

Tranny - Castrol Syntorque LT (Mopar #4874459)

Clutch fluid flush - DOT 4 conforming Mopar DOT 4
Brake/Clutch Fluid #4549625

Brake fluid flush - DOT 4 conforming Mopar DOT 4 Brake/Clutch Fluid #4549625

Coolant

Power steering - Mopar Power Steering Fluid Mopar PSF "All Climate" (#5010304AA)

Chassis Grease - "MOPAR" Wheel Bearing Grease #5083149AA

Plugs - #RC12LYC (what’s in there from Mopar)

Good luck

Rotate the tires? For real?

...and, you might want to add new plug wires.

Maybe he meant to change out the summer air and put in winter air....
