Annual Service (3K miles annually)

bkniep · Mar 23, 2010

OK. I tried the search function and struck out. Can one of the experienced Ferrari mechanics on the board give us a run down of what processes should be done at an annual service. The belts were done last year and I drive 3-4K miles annually.
Obviously oil change. What else shouldn't be neglected?
Top up fluid resevoirs for top operation?
Gearbox Oil?
Brake fluids?

The car is driven strictly on the road and while the red line is used frequently, this is not nearly as hard driven a car as my 993 Turbo (track days etc).

Thanks
Bill

RTFM ? For example the 1998 US 355 handbook shows the service schedule in section N4 with all the mileages in miles

At the end it comments about minor servicing annually if the miles have not been covered

I saw Rifledriver recommend changing the engine oil and gearbox oil once a year, coolant every other year.

Not sure about the brake fluid, but I would suspect every other year also?

My Ferrari mech. said just oil and top off fluids one year and change every fluid the next! Kind of like a minor fluid and major fluid change! I put 7k to 8k a year on my 355..
