Also how often should the breaks be flushed? I had it done 8,000 miles ago and the dealership is suggesting that (based on a look at the fluid) it should be flushed again.
Hi,

Spark Plugs are part of the 30k Maintenance, as is an Oil Change (if you wait that long, which you shouldn't), Air Filter, Cabin Filter. The rest of the 30k Mi. Maintenance consists various visual inspections of Hoses, Fluids, Radiators, Brakes, etc. and to R&R as needed. Prices on this Service will vary quite a lot I find.

Brake Fluid is not mileage dependent, rather it should be flushed and changed every two years regardless of mileage. Additionally, you will also need to change your Engine Drive Belt as the change interval is 60k mi. or every 4 years. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
