my wife's car is about 75 K right now after 2.5 years old, she drives about 1.5 hours to work 3 times a week, oil is synthetic and changer regularly

I thinking its getting close to change the coolant and the trans fluid

I just did a trans fluid change on our Ram 1500 and it wasn't that hard, is there a tutorial on front wheel drive caliber ??

 

It uses a very expensive fluid and you need a StarScan tool to check the fluid. I would have the dealer do the trans fluid change. Last I checked the fluid was $29 a qt!!!!!

 

any idea if it needs changed now or wait a little longer ??

what kind of coolant, dex-cool....I thought that stuff was good for 100,000 miles at least ??

thanks

 

check your owners manual it has all your service intervals in it. if it has cvt trans the dealer scans the trans and it tells you when to change it, it is really intended to be a dealer only service

 

The Mopar antifreeze is a bit different than the crappy GM dexi-rot. I'm not sure what the interval is on the coolant. 100K is about right though.
