1000 mile oil change questions
Just hit 1k on my as ls3 and want to change the oil in her just to get those shavings out as I've been breaking her in somewhat hard. Other than new oil filter and fresh oil is there any other fluids or anything else maintainance wise I should tak care of at 1000 miles? Thanks

I'd also do the rear differential. It's easy and only takes 1 qt. I used Royal Purple that includes the limited slip stuff. I was surprised how crudy the rear diff lube looked after very few miles. I think the limited slip clutches really shed a lot of material as they are breaking in.
