Brake fluid, power steering fluid.

Front wheel bearings on an AU are sealed for life.

When was the last time it had a wheel alignment?

you could use a lot more trans fluid if you were to do a proper flush by taking the cooler pipe off for the trans and putting the car in drive to use the trans pump to remove the fluid, then fill with fresh fluid and pump it out again until fresh fluid comes out of the cooler lines, as the trans cooler and torque convertor will still have old fluid in it if you just drop the pan on the trans and change the filter and fill the trans
