Hi,

I do not want to be cheated. What are the must haves in an 85,000 mile maintenance for my Beetle? It is running fine.

Thanks!

Have you ever had your transmission fluid changed at 50,00 miles? if not it is way over due. Also if you did not have your spark plugs done at 40,000 or 80,000 miles they need to be changed also. Have you ever had your water pump roller and belts done? If not those should be inspected usually by 80,000 miles the rollers are worn pretty good.
