Time intervals for changing coolant, brake fluid, etc

[Vypr GT2]

The recommended time interval for oil changes for Vipers that accumulate only a thousand or so miles annually is one year, according to Viper Magazine.


How about brake fluid, coolant, transmission fluid? Is every 4-5 years for very-low-mileage Vipers that never see track use about right?

I disagree a bit, based on the input from Tom FLGoR. The impurities and moisture sitting around would have me on a 6-9 month crankcase cycle, even w/ low miles.

Coolant 3 years.

Brake fluid 4-5....Trans/rear fluids 4-5 fine.
