The 101 freeway is pretty awful, but I guess, in exchange for a good service, it's worth the drive! 
I'm open to any suggestions in keeping this car running great for years to come...... |
Just follow his recommended oil change interval and have the car looked over by him when you bring it in. He knows what to do.
Furthermore, all of the maintenance on your car is performed in mileage increments, with two exceptions, which are performed in time intervals. Both are important:
1. radiator coolant - needs to be replaced every three (3) years.
2. brake fluid - needs to be replaced every two (2) years.
