Default Maintenance

Hello everyone just writing about my experience so far for anyone who is concerned about the maintenance of the f type. There’s a lot of threads on this subject but I wanted to create another. I recently had my car go in for a major service. I got the v3 euro amp aluminum coolant pipes and upgraded everything such as the water pump, and other pipes. The part that isn’t included is the part with the number C2Z18677 which you can only replace with the supercharger off. I have 58k miles on my car now and put 20k miles on it in two years. All the original pipes worked fine but they said one of the y pipes was starting to seep. While I was there I replaced the coupler with the solid coupler from Eaton. It is tan and not the ZZP coupler as people have had problems with those. I haven’t heated any problems with the Eaton coupler which is a tan coupler in case you would like to look for it. I also had the supercharger oil changed and the rear diff oil change along with the belts. I haven’t done spark plugs, transmission, and transfer case yet as I believe I don’t need to and because I’m gonna put it off because of how much I’m spending right now. All in with all the things I had done including parts it came out to $2000 which is not bad at all considering everything that was done. If anyone can tell me the cost for someone to change the transfer case, transmission oil it would be great too. And also what mileage would be recommended for changing it. Always keep up on maintenance before anything else and the car will treat you well. I haven’t had a single problem within the two years I’ve had the car (knock on wood) because I’ve done my research. I would recommend if anyone is looking to get new brakes to get porterfield r4s pads and r1 concept rotors. So much less brake dust and also a lot cheaper than going oem. Also find a trusted shop and I would not go to the dealer at all. I never have since I’ve had the car. I’ve done a lot of modifications such as adding an SVR front lip, carbon rear spoiler, macron side skirts, Kong diverge wheels, yellow calipers, rear diffuser extensions, full exhaust, 15% tints, chrome delete, and spacers along with all the upgrades with the aluminum coolant system and supercharger coupler. Just giving some insight to the maintenance and also asking some questions.
