Im having my tranny serviced and power steering flushed. I know it is costing a fortune but know that it will be for the best of the components. Ill be bringing it in on Thursday 12 FEB 09.

Bob - after 30K?

for 30k, you should really just be doing plugs, and checking your PCV valce which should be fine.

Nope, no plug changes needed on an SRT8, either. They have 100K mile Iridium plugs.

You can check your manual, and see which Maintenance schedule you fit into. But, you really don't have to do much with your MSRT8, unless you've really been hard on the car, or want to take extra precautions in a long-life of service. Just check your fluids (level and condition), check the front end over, especially your Tension Rod bushings. Then, look at the accessory belt for cracks, splitting, or excess wear. Do an oil change if needed. Check/change your air filter, cabin filter (if so equipped, SRT Opt Group I), fuel filter and PCV. Also, you can check over your brakes, if attention hasn't been given there before, or it's been a while.
