Members have also said that 30K is when you change out your tranny fluid too.

those S, E, B indicators, seem to mean these services MUST be performed to keep warranty intact, if so, that's pretty dirty pool, unless they allow the inspection to be done by outside shops.

you don't neccessarily have to change out any fluids at any interval (except engine oil), but they do need to be inspected. as long as the fluids look/feel/smell fine then you don't really need to replace them

i like to check my fluids every other oil change. very easy to just pop the lids and look at the fluids (except the tranny fluid). fluids should be clear and not have anything floating in it, at the proper levels, nothing should smell burnt, if you get some on your fingers it should not feel gritty, etc.

i changed my tranny fluid at about 20k give or take. i change my oil and filter every 3k. Im assuming change the plugs, check the breaks, power steering and coolant and call it a day? Lubricate doors? lol...they open just fine.
