    At 60k I'd change the air filter as well - they are cheap.

    If it's the 6 speed conventional Auto I'd still change the fluid (and there's probably a filter hiding somewhere too).

    Nobody has mentioned the F + R diff oil or the haldex + filter - They have to be done too don't they?

    Yeah, conventional auto needs its filter and pan gasket replaced.

    Haldex is.also due at 60K for <MY10 models. >MY10 is every 3 years.

    No service interval for diff and bevel box, but the oil in the bevel box cops a bit of a hammering. Although most of them will have had the oil done at some point when the output shaft seal has blown.

    My attitude is that if i'm going to do A, B & C then i may as well do D unless it's crazy expensive. It gets the car back to a known baseline

    Not everyone has your attitude, which is unfortunate for the likes of me

    I didn't say I was paying anyone to do it!

    I still have the skillz - it just takes me twice as long these days & I have to self-medicate with alcohol afterwards.
