tim john Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 I have a 04 ES with 70000miles. Great car, warranty runs out in march 2010, want to take into dealer and have it checked over good, what should I ask them to look for, I'm thinking of some sort of service done so they don't charge me up the butt to give the car a once over. Never had the battery changed, thinking of doing that, got a decent price on that. Any elp would be great. thanks. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbhrps Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Tim, I've read both of your posts and its obvious that you're pretty excited with your new purchase. My wife and I love her ES just as much. But I would suggest that you don't spend any money that you don't need to. Personally, unless the battery is hinting at giving you a problem, why change it before you need to? Nine times out of ten it'll telegraph when its about to go south. The one you have now could last for years. As far as what things to have the dealership check over, it would be wise to check the suggested maintenance schedule in your owner's manual. Previous service records will tell you what's been done and up to date. If that isn't available it may be wise to flush the brake system, the cooling system, and the transmission as well. Check the schedule for the spark plugs and the timing belt, and check the condition of the belts, hoses, and CV joint boots. Everything else should have been checked when the car was safetied. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
