Fluids

I hate to keep posting new threads. But you guys know what your talking about and I wanted to get your opinions.

I bought a 2006 TL (auto) I know I wanted a manual since that's all I have ever owned. But I couldn't find one.

Anyways, my car has 55k and the I got it from a reputable honda dealer and they told me the oil change was done before I bought it and I am going full synthetic when it's due. But what else should I get done? Trans fluid?

I would check the engine oil, tranny oil, coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc. Even if the dealer says it was done, I would at least take a look at the color of the fluids and their levels to see what should be done.

Yes you should definitely consider doing your transmission fluid as well.
