Just picked up an '03 GPW AP1
So I just picked up an '03 AP1 with about 87k miles, was pretty much from a dealership, so not much of a history of maintenance or things like that.
I've gone from two Miata's, so this is probably my first S2000 I've owned myself, other then my buddy's ap1's.
I'm definitely looking to swap out all the fluids and do a complete tune up, but just wondering if there's anything else to look out for. There isn't clutch buzz, but a slight whine on the diff.
Fluids
-Tranny
-Rear Differential
-Coolant
-Power Steering
-Engine Oil
-Bleed Brakes (if necessary)
I'll do a bit of searching in a bit, but what's the recommended fluids for the above maintenance items?
I'm looking forward to be on these forums and owning a gpw ap1!

Welcome to the boards. Lots of great resources here. I see you're from Chicago, where abouts? I'm in the burbs near northbrook. You should check out the upper midwest forums, good local crew. Congrats on the car.
