Once you can do your own oil and brakes a lot of the other stuff you would need to replace is a piece of cake Congrats

Cabin air filter next! most you can just drop your glovebox usually just held in place by two tabs you push in and then just slide it out and replace it. I did oil changes and tires for a few years and 80% of them were nasty and full of leaves

Exactly this, most of it is just about becoming comfortable taking your car apart and working with dirty metal components and such, once you get comfortable with it mechanics is just legos but dirtier and rougher, whatever you don’t know you can just google
