Default Re: taking '06 FEH for service - anything I should ask for

You might consider flushing the brake fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic and over time it will absorb mositure and start a corrosion in the brake system. It will also lower the boiling point of the brake fluid, this could be an issue in the mountains. Make sure they use the full synthetic 5w20 engine oil, they make a semi-sythetic also for the non-hybrids. You didnt state where you live so I dont know what else to recomend
