What should be carried out when giving your car a good at home service?

Plug Change
Oil Change
Oil Filter Change
Gaskets
Fluids
HT Leads
Air filter
Belts(what belts)

What else or what isnt really needed.

Fuel filter, power steering fluid, brake pads/discs...

The list is endless mate. Get u'reself a Haynes manual (Not a Max Crapper either) and look in there for the corasponding mileage. Did mine myself and it works top notch. Only took me 3 hours for a standard service on the driveway.

dont think your car will have HT leads

what gaskets you dont need to change any really unless there is problems with them

you will need a copper washer for the sump plug though

no need to change any belts unless the cambelt is due a change or the altenator 1 is nakered

eveything you have listed will be enough
