Default Service time.. 135k.

Hi gunna get the AU serviced soon, wondering what needs to be replaced?

Current list:
Oxygen sensor (Crap fuel economy, exhaust smells rich)
Shocks and springs, not urgent, but still original.
Pads and rotors, brake shudder so bad it wants to change lanes at 110k's.
Brake fluid?
Coolant change?
Oil change.
Differential oil? It's clunking a bit as of late.

Have I missed anything? Also sometimes when braking heavily then stopping theres a bit of a clunk, sounds like you have something heavy in the boot slamming into the seat, but from the front. Engine mounts maybe?

Thanks.

i'd also add a trans fluid flush and change to that list, especially if you haven't had one done yet...as far as the clunk in the front end, i'd be checking out ball joints, as they wear out they start making clunking noises when turning and braking
