Coming up to 65k miles and need to decide what services I want performed (2016 BMW 320xi)

I recently had the rear brakes replaced, oil changed and 4 new tires. I know I need the front rotors and pads replaced, I think I can get some more mileage out of the calipers. I’ll probably replace the air filter myself to save a few dollars since its one of the few things I feel comfortable doing and worth doing myself these days…

Differential fluid replacement?

Transmission fluid replacement?

Coolant replacement?

Really confused on what to do about the tranny fluid since I’ve heard many conflicting opinions.

TIA

    Thanks for the feedback. I agree on the brakes and coolant/fluids. I read somewhere calipers should last about 100k so I was thinking I would wait on those for now.

    So you’re adamant against a transmission fluid FLUSH, why is that? (Sorry if this is a dumb question)

    Also, if at this time you would suggest just the transmission fluid change, when if ever would you suggest the flush?

    A good time for all fluids - diff, trans, brake, coolant.

    Spark plugs - always a good bet on maintenance - the more frequent change the better.

    Belt and pulley usually last up to 100-130k, so you are all set there for now.
