Gen5 Gen 5 With 60k Miles...

2005 Camry with 60,000 miles on her. So far so good. At this point in her life span what would you say is the most important things to look out for?

coolant flush if you have a car with RED (02-03)...its not due to 100k if you have PINK (04-06)
trans flush
oil/filter change
check battery
check air filter
clean throttle body
check for leaks
check all hoses and wires etc

car should be running fine if youve done all maintenence

You think the power steering fluid and brake fluid needs to be changed at 60K miles?

Brake fliud should be flushed every 35k to avoid condensation,
once moisture gets in brake fluid it becomes a corrosive.
I always change/ exchange my power steering fluid
with the turkey baster method.. Easy to do.
