Hi everyone,
Just picked up a 2005 Lotus Elise this past weekend and am getting ready to do the 45,000 mile service on it. The dealer did not have any service history on it so I will be replacing all fluids (clutch, brake, coolant, transmission - except oil, that was done before it was picked up), replace air filter, replace accessory belt (anyone know the size for a bone stock 111R, I found two different sizes searching on the board here).
In addition, I will be taking the cover off and inspecting the cam for wear (can I reuse the gasket here or do you usually suggest using a new one).
If there anything else that I should do? Anything I should be aware of before going into this, tips/suggestions?
-Steve
