Inflated Tires.

134,340 total miles.

The low tire pressure indicator came on this morning, and I think it's the first time I've ever seen it. Left rear tire pressure had fallen to 29 PSI.

I inflated all to 40 PSI. All reading were somewhat warm, as the car had recently been driven.

Added brake fluid.

132,389 total miles.

Got the low brake fluid warning again and had a fresh can of Johnsen's synthetic DOT-3 brake fluid handy. It didn't take the whole can, only about 8oz. Low brake fluid is common as the pads slowly wear.

Looks like I'm adding 8oz of brake fluid about every 10k miles lately, around once a year:
