My C3Aircross will be 5 years old this June and wondered if anyone does their own maintenance.

Have had it serviced every year (Covid exempt for 1 year) at a main dealership here in Spain but they are over an hour away.

The coolant is looking a little dirty now and thought about replacing it myself. Just not sure whether it’s a vacuum fill though. Could also do an oil change too

Apparently this 5year service is also plugs so could do those to to keep the costs down and just take it in for the year the cam belt is due.

Only done about 30,000km (18,000miles) so brakes are fine.

Any links to a service manual would be welcomed.
TIA
C3 Aircross Shine 130 in White, Black Roof with Silver Bars

Brake fluid is due a change every 2 years, so don't forget that.

On this engine the coolant should be checked at 120000 Km / 4 year(s) Then every 20000 Km / 1 year(s), but is long life, so doesn't get changed until 180000km or 10 years. Ignore the colour as it changes.
