Default Any Recommendations/Suggestions?

I just turned 10,000 miles on my 2018 F-Type, V-6, 8-speed automatic.
Other than having my oil changed (twice now), is there anything I should be changing, replacing, or having looked at for this vehicle as it turns over 10K miles that you guys would HIGHLY RECOMMEND??
Thanks Very Much

I would "think" with the age and mileage of your car that should be all you need. It is people like me with older models and similar miles that may need extra work done. I have a 2016 with 13k.

At that age, a brake fluid flush seems called for. I don't have the maintenance schedule in front of me, but that's the only thing that immediately comes to mind.

Well, I'm crossing the same milestone with a 2016. Have an appointment for brake and coolant flush. Probably should have done both sooner since mine is a couple years older.

Since the OP is asking the question...I am puzzled as to your response of "Obviously not...!" If it were "obvious" to all, they probably wouldn't have asked the question. Forgive me if I have misinterpreted you intent.

I looked it up: Brake fluid service interval is three years, coolant is ten years, and I just remembered that the supercharger belt is six years.

Blowing out leafs stuck by heat exchanger, Intake Air filters could be changed as well. A forum member had recommended every 10k miles for the filters

Engine air filters are due for renewal every four years or 64k miles, whichever comes first.
I replaced mine (second replacement) at around three years and 15k miles after the previous replacement and then again after another 10k or so (fitted the Mina Gallery intake kit) and both times they still looked like new, so 10k is overkill unless you drive in extremely dusty conditions a lot. Especially as its a PITA to do.
And when I replaced the front "splitter" (damaged by road debris) at around two years old and 20k miles I noticed that the heat exchanger (in front of the main radiator directly behind that front splitter) was packed with leaves and debris and I cleaned it out so good call on that!
