    For your 6 speed manual transmission V8:

    - change engine oil
    - change oil filter
    - change brake fluid if 2 years since last change
    = change clutch fluid if 2 years since last change
    - change radiator coolant if 2 years since last change
    - check Pwr/steering fluid level (this fluid should be renewed at least every 18 months to keep it reasonably fresh but renewal is not a listed item )
    - remove wheels and check rotors and brake pads for wear
    - check all coolant hoses
    - check all brake lines, fuel lines and Pwr/steering hoses
    - check gear box and diff for leaks.
    - inspect suspension and steering components
    - inspect all CV joints and propshaft rubber couplings
    - check exhaust system
    - check the condition of the engine drive belt (serpentine belt) and replace as necessary. If unsure - replace it with a new item.

    Also worth consideration:
    - It's not a listed item but if you have not ever changed the manual gearbox oil I would change it soon.
    - If the oil in the Limited Slip Diff has never been changed (it probably has not) I would change it soon. Use Castrol SAF-XA 80w-140 LSD oil (fully synthetic).(Again, not a listed item).
    - Check the condition of the air filter element. It should have been replaced at 90000 kms but if it's looking a bit dirty change it. Very simple to do and inexpensive.

    These are the main items. Obviously the more frequently oils and fluids are replaced the better rather than letting them run out to the maximum change period.

    Hope this helps some. Cheers
