Engine oil & filter7,500 mi / 12 moEngineFull-synthetic-era interval for a naturally aspirated engine.
Engine air filter30,000 mi / 36 moFiltersReplace sooner if you regularly drive on dusty or unpaved roads.
Spark plugs100,000 miEngineIridium and platinum plugs typically last 100,000 miles; copper plugs need replacing around 30,000.
Engine coolant100,000 mi / 120 moFluidsLong-life coolant on the first service, then roughly every 50,000 miles or 5 years afterwards.
Fuel filterAs neededFiltersMost modern gasoline vehicles use a lifetime in-tank filter that is only replaced with the fuel pump.
Serpentine / accessory belt90,000 miEngineInspect at every oil change for cracking, glazing, or missing ribs.
Hybrid battery cooling filter30,000 mi / 36 moElectricalHybrid packs are air-cooled through a cabin intake — a clogged filter is the most common cause of hybrid battery overheating.
Tire rotation7,500 mi / 6 moTires & BrakesRotate with every oil change to even out wear; check pressures monthly against the door-jamb placard.
Brake pad & rotor inspection15,000 mi / 12 moTires & BrakesRegenerative braking greatly extends pad life, but rotors can corrode from light use — inspect regularly.
Brake fluid30,000 mi / 36 moFluidsBrake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point — replace on time even at low mileage.
Cabin air filter15,000 mi / 12 moFiltersA cheap DIY item on most vehicles; replace more often in pollen-heavy or urban areas.
Wiper bladesAs needed / 12 moElectricalReplace annually or as soon as they streak.
12V battery testAs needed / 12 moElectricalMost 12V batteries last three to five years; have it load-tested each year after year three.
Automatic transmission fluid60,000 miDrivetrainSo-called "lifetime" automatic fluid still degrades — a drain-and-fill every 60,000 miles is the widely recommended practice.

What the Ferrari 296 Speciale schedule costs to follow

Calculated from this vehicle's own interval list above — not a generic average. Following it to 100,000 miles means 51 service events across 14 distinct items, of which 13 are oil and filter changes at the 7,500 mi interval. At independent-shop rates that works out to roughly $2,050–$5,000 over 100,000 miles, or about $205–$500 per 10,000 miles driven. The item that comes around most often is engine oil & filter every 7,500 mi, so that is the visit to build the rest of the schedule around.

Service history

Schedule generated from this vehicle's powertrain, transmission, and drivetrain (fueleconomy.gov / U.S. Department of Energy) using mainstream manufacturer service practice for its model year. Your owner's manual is the authority — follow its severe-duty schedule if you tow, idle a lot, or drive mostly short trips.

Ferrari 296 Speciale data analysis

How to read this Ferrari 296 Speciale data

This page lists every 2026 Ferrari 296 Speciale record we hold for this measurement — 1 row in total, one per configuration and model year rather than a single headline figure. Figures are published as the source agency records them: we do not round, average or interpolate missing years, and a year that is absent from the table is a year with no published measurement rather than a zero. Where a manufacturer offered several drivetrains or body styles in the same year, each appears on its own row, because those variants rarely share the same numbers.

Where these Ferrari 296 Speciale figures come from

Every value on this page is loaded from federal open data — EPA fuel economy submissions, NHTSA vehicle and crash-test records, and manufacturer specification filings — rather than dealer listings or copied editorial content. The Ferrari 296 Speciale record refreshes as the agencies publish, which typically means new model-year rows appear in the autumn and crash-test results follow through the model year as vehicles are tested. Because certification data is filed per configuration, treat any single headline number for this vehicle with caution: the figure that applies to a specific car depends on its engine, drivetrain, body style and model year, all of which are listed separately above. If a number here disagrees with a brochure, the brochure is usually quoting the best available configuration rather than the one being sold.
