car is in for 45k mile service.

anything else i should do besides the regular maintenance?

diff/trans fluid were changed at 32k miles. don't think they will do them again included....although i asked them to look into it.

could be the last time the car gets serviced before the warranty ends :/

How are your brakes looking? Due for a replacement?

I guess that means you should be spending the next 5k miles with quite a heavy foot on the brakes.

One good track day will take care of those pesky brake pads (& maybe rotors too!).
