Default What do you do each oil change?

Hey guys,
So I know there are a lot of generic lists out there, but I thought it might be helpful to put together a list of things you should do/check every oil change.

At the moment, I grease my drive shaft every oil change. I also check coolant levels.

What are some of the things you do every oil change?

I usually just look around and check all the bushings/boots and the drive shafts for play.

Check t-case and tranny fluids.

Give a peace offering of burnt Rotella and green coolant to the Rover gods.

I use Shell Rotella & change oil every 5000

> Grease Front & rear drive shafts
> Rotate tires front to back and back to front. Check tire pressure
> Clean/wash/Re-Oil K&N filter every other oil change.
> Inspect brake lines, rear air bags while tires are off. Also rock tires up/down, side-to-side to check for play, ball joints, tie rod ends. Check brake lights
> I check oil level and coolant every week...just because its a land rover. Usually before I go out wheeling
