Tomorrow I drop off my 1 for walnut blasting and valve cover gasket. I have 71k on the odometer. When I get it back I'll be installing new plugs. I'm compliant with oil (every 4k, brake fluid was just flushed not too long ago, about 8 months ago.
I haven't touched the diff oil because they claim it's a lifetime fluid along with coolant. Brakes will tackled in a month once I get the hardware in. Am I missing anything else?

I recommend replacing the differential fluid and trans fluid as well as coolant.
You gotta remember most manufacturers see the lifetime as 120-150k miles. And even by then these fluids would be far gone...
