Just some quick advise please.

I serviced my ba xr6 turbo ute around 14 months ago / 12000kms ago, I replaced...

Ignition coils

Spark plugs

Oil

Oil filter

Fuel filter

Had the injectors removed and tested

Cleaned air filter

Didn't have the gearbox or diff done.

Im about to do oil filter/oil and run injector cleaner

My question is should I now bother replacing...

Fuel filter

Spark plugs

And at 136000kms should I replace diff oil and have the gearbox pumped. ??

Cheers guys.

Fuel filter every 2nd service. No need to do plugs for another 50-100k. Diff and transmission oil yes

Maybe change the oil a bit more regularly 14months and 12k is almost as bad as ford spec 15k which I'm sure is what costs people turbos go every 7.5k and your car will love it or 5k if your like me turbo cars hate old dirty oil and yeah do the diff its easy and cheap and when your has a few kays on that's the time to step up the servicing so stuff doesn't wear out so quickly

I normally do oil and filter every 12 months but fell behind this time. I always use good oil and it seems to keep clean and run well no mattethe kms (within reason) :)

I am pretty set on the diff as it hasnt been done in the last 30000kms, unsure before that. So I figured it was due.

Gearbox is my main goal (shame its so expensive, between $400-600, that's lines flushed with full synthetic)

Also this time im going to swap my k&n panel filter for a pod and see if I get any better economy over a long trip.
