These 7 Car Parts And Fluids Typically Need Attention And Replacement By 100,000 Miles - Jalopnik

Passing 100,000 miles often means more than an oil change, as several critical car parts and fluids require replacement or refresh. The maintenance cadence varies by brand, with Honda recommending brake-fluid changes at 45,000 and 90,000 miles, while Ford specifies a brake-fluid change every 3 years for the F-150. Severe driving conditions and towing can accelerate wear, affecting oil changes and cooling-system service as well. Spark plugs, timing belt, water pump, radiator and hoses, brake fluid, dampers, and automatic transmission fluid are among the parts most likely to degrade and need replacing at six figures, depending on upkeep.
