Do any of you guys do your own maintenance on your cars? I want to do it mine but I need a little bit of help. I will provide the beer in return for services provided. Actually a maintenance meet sounds pretty awesome.

I work on my own cars. I was going to do my fluids at the beginning of Spring, how soon where you wanting to do it? I have a garage and tools and I live in Lake Stevens. I would definitely be down to show you a few things, keep the beer and bring something a little more medical... But seriously, where you wanting to do it right away or are you open to waiting?

^ Ditto. I do all the maintenance on my vehicles unless it's some mandatory dealership service. If you need help, just hit me up.

I know the brake fluid and oil are due. I have like i have over 60k so i know power steering,transmission and diff could probably do a change also.

The best time for me, would be mid January, which is kind of far away but I'm going back home to the east coast and won't be back til around then. I realized another issue though, and that's the fact I forgot I've been borrowing tools to help my friends work on their cars. It'll take me some time before I can assemble a decent set of tools for myself out here. Bmwonderful's offer looks like it'll be ur ticket, if he doesn't mind hosting

I'm sure someone in the PNW takes an interest in coding and knows how to. I'm tied up with other projects right now, and I couldn't even look into coding if I wanted to.

I feel like I'm working on 3 cars instead of just one sometimes.
