My 65k maint was a VTSC. I think it is either a 60k or 75k check. You should look into it.

What kind of maintenence should I be doing? Oil change and filter is always done at 3K. Diff and Trans Fluid changed recently.
Cracking out Ye Olde Book...

At 45k, you should have replaced the coolant and brake fluid.

At 60k, you should...

* replace engine oil
* check tire inflation and condition
* replace engine oil filter
* inspect front and rear brakes
* check pads and discs for wear, damage, and cracks
* check calipers for damage, leaks, and tightness of mount bolts
* check parking brake adjustment. Should be fully applied withing 9 to 13 clicks.
* inspect tie-rod ends, steering gearbox, and boots
* check rack grease and steering linkage
* check boots for damage and leaking grease
* check fluid line for damage and leaks
* inspect suspension components
* check bolts for tightness
* check condition of ball joint boots for deterioration and damage
* inspect driveshaft boots. Check boots for cracks and boot bands for tightness
* inspect brake hoses and lines (including ABS). Check the master cylinder, proportioning control valve, and ABS modulator for damage and leakage
* check all fluid levels and condition of fluids; check for leaks. If necessary, add MTF, engine coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid.
* inspect cooling system hoses and connections
* check for damage, leaks, and deterioration
* check for proper fan operation
* inspect exhaust system. Check catalytic converter heat shield, exhaust pipe, and muffler for damage, leaks, and tightness
* inspect fuel lines and connections. Check for loose connections, cracks and deterioration; retighten loose connections and replace damaged parts
* replace air cleaner element
* inspect drive belts for cracks and damage. Alternator compressor belt: inspect auto tensioner indicator, needs no adjustment
* replace differential oil
* replace the air conditioning filter

Do the last one first, since no one EVER changes that thing and it probably looks like Dusty Death by now.
