There isn't a thread that I know of that shows how/when these planes get maintenance. As for the types of mechanical issues there isn't much detail other than "Aircraft Servicing" that you see on flight status on United.com. I'm sure that when these aircraft do overnight there is a checklist of maintenance issues that are checked.
