As per the title really. Car has now done 80k miles and am giving it an oil change next week.

As I am there I thought I could try and do the gearbox and diff oil too - is this relatively easy?

Also - is it recommended to give the engine a flush? If so what do people use?

MX5Parts used to sell a service pack which included everything you needed to do a proper oil change (fliter, drain plug, washer, air filter etc) but I can't find it on the website anymore - anyone know if I now need to buy all the parts separately?
