70k miles. What should be done...
Hey ladies and gentlemen, my Camaro is creeping up on 70k miles. I do oil changes roughly every 3500-5000 miles. Full synthetic and ill also use one of those fuel system cleaners that you pour into the gas. But ive seen people say that other things should be changed. Ive checked the manual and everything seems fine but maybe you all could give me some reccomendations as to what you would do/reccomend. The brakes were already done, intake cleaned etc. im talking more along the lines of brake fluid and things like that. Should i change all the fluids or leave everything? It was inspected january of this year. Ive seen people on here say theyve already changed brake fluids and fuel lines and im just trying to get an idea of whats best to keep thr car running for life. Thanks everyone.
Also need spark plugs, whats best and why?

have you replaced all the fluids yet. if not there all very long over due. plugs wires might help. 100,000 is the interval but some have seen improvements buy replacing with same oem wires and plug at 70k.

Spark plugs (the OEM ones are good), cabin filter, I replaced my struts with coilovers.

I havent changed any fluids except for oil. So power steering fluid the cabin air filter and spark plugs should all be done. what brand spark plugs you all recommend? Any better than others? Or they all pretty much the same?

along with the rear differential only use OEM AC Delco. your ignition requires the plugs and wires to be within a certain resistance. Aftermarket do not have the same specs so they will work on many vehicles.

I just had my 75,000 mile service done. They recommend changing rear-diff fluid and cleaning fuel injectors, in addition to oil change.
