Default Question for everyone who bought a used S.

I bought my 01 (used of course) about a month and a half to two months ago. It had 24K miles on the odometer and I now have 27K. I have had absolutely no problems with it at all. I took it on a trip to the beach already and it ran fine. My question is, those of you who purchased your S used, did you automatically change all the fluids? Oil, diff., transmission, etc. As of right now I haven't done any of this yet, and I'm sure I should do this ASAP. Who knows if the diff. was ever changed. Anyway any advise would be great!

Greg

Haven't changed any of the fluids yet. The car had just had the oil changed and all the fluids checked before I purchased it, but it will be due for it's first oil change ( while I've owned it ) in 500 miles, so I'll be taking it to the dealership and having them change all of the fluids. Has anyone done this, and if so, how much was it? The car currently has 17K miles and it's an MY01.

if you bought it from a dealer then it probaly had most of the fluids changed or atleast checked.. they do that as a precautionary measure... but go ahead and change it all anyways... cant hurt anything

Thanks! I figured that the dealer would change all the fluids but I wasn't sure. I don;t think I'm gonna take it back to the dealer, to expensive. I know a great shop that I have been going to for a while now, I will be going to them for any maintenance.
