Would be nice to get a compilation of DIY maintenance items that you can do. I'm a newb at this stuff so I didn't know how to even do my first oil change.

I'm hoping other members will add to this thread as they begin to rack up the mileage and do the maintenance.

I'd like to see stuff like air filter, in cabin air filter, front seat air filter (for 2012's only), rear/front diff oil, transmission flush, brakes, etc...

I'll start with DIY engine oil and oil filter change.

Front & Rear Diff, T-case, and soon to be tranny fluid change (thanks to JTRATX):

Great idea Humvee21, I've been wanting to do some videos but no time.
Maybe when I swap out my brakes I'll make one.

I know haw to check the air in the tires that does not require any special tools other than an air gage the proper amount is specified on the inside of the drivers door
