Question about 4runner service now at 35,000 miles

[swiss_seth]

I have a 2015 SR5 and I am approaching 35k miles. I change the oil about every 9-10k and rotate each 6k.

Other than having my mechanic give a visual inspection on the coolant and brake fluid etc. to see if it needs changed are there any other items that should be done at 35k?

I am mainly asking about greasing joints and under the chassis items etc.?


Thanks for any help!

If it hasn't been done, hit any grease fitting (driveshaft/U-joints). I try to do that every, or every other oil change.

WASH IT, you are in salt territory, clean the under carriage!

You can't change the oil too often, 9-10k seems a little light. I do mine within every 5k, which is a step back from every 3k that I used to do. I run a 3rd gen, FWIW.

Look into the differential and transfer case fluids. I forgot when they are supposed to be changed, but just to keep it on your radar. Not sure if you're 4x4.

I do have the 4x4 model. I will get my mechanic to look over all the fluids and grease you guys mentioned and he can fix it up.

I definitely dont want any undue wear and tear. I follow the manual and use my 4x4 on wet roads or dirt for about 10 miles a month to give all the fluids moving. Other than the odd big snow storm or blizzard in Western PA I dont really use 4x4 so hopefully the fluids are okay.
