7.5 and 15 - change oil and filter

45K miles or 36 months
change oil and filter
inspect brake linings
change rear axle fluid
flush and replace engine coolant

other intervals in between include lubricating the front and rear suspension ball joints and tie rod ends, replacing air filter and spark plugs

bigger service at 4 years or 60K miles
includes some of the above plus inspecting/replacing if necessary auto tension drive belt and PVC orifice
(whatever that is)

60K service is:
change oil (2 tubs of Mobil 1) and fit new filter
replace air filters (there's 2 of them), spark plugs and leads
lubricate front and rear ball joint and tie end rods
inspect and replace if necessary auto tension drive belt and PVC orifice

this is for a 2000 GTS, gen1 should be very similar ask v1per (Baz) to check his manual

Always service mine myself just two tubs of Mobile 1 and a filter from US Automotive.

Plugs etc as necessary.

Don't forget to top up the fascia mounted bottle, search for burping on the us site.
