Hi All,
Im a new owner of a 2014 s cab with 38k miles - I was planning on giving it a full servicing at home.
Oil, Oil Filter, 2 cabin Filters, Engine Air Filter, Serpentine Belt, and spark plugs. (All of them look to be easy to do once the bumper is off. There have been great links here and on YouTube. I've purchased all parts from my local dealer. )
Please suggest any other things I should take care of while I have it open.

Currently there are no service lights showing on the dashboard and Im assuming a light will turn on at 40k miles ... ?
When does the light turn on?

Should I wait for the service light -- or -- do it now?

I have records showing the last service was done at 29k miles. (Oil, Oil Filter, Cabin Filters)

Thanks!

Do now. Congrats on the new car. And BIGGER congrats on your DIY skills.

The light might turn on at the 4 year mark.

Brake fluid replacement/flush. Required every 20k miles or every two years.

First thing I do and every car or bike I buy (preowned) is replace all fluids and get a Blackstone report. Like to know it was done and done write, and set a base line.

Enjoy the new ride.

Thanks - this is all easy. I watched a video on doing the plenum and that seems hard due to having to drop the engine but still a doable DIY job.

So - no light will come on at 40K miles?

As for breaks it was done recently - with pads / rotors / fluid as per the paperwork i got with the car.

Thanks --

Would it help in addition to the dealership records I have?
I have the dealership records of services and the invoices for when the car was taken in?

Service reminder will come on for the 4 yr/40,000 mile service. Also the MFD will show you how many more miles/time until your next 1yr/10K ("Oil Change"), 2yr/20k ("Interm. service"), or 4yr/40k service ("Service").
