At how many kilometers does a Nissan Sylphy require a major maintenance?

[StAbigail]

Nissan Sylphy requires a major maintenance every 40,000 kilometers. The 40,000-kilometer maintenance mainly includes the replacement of engine oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin air filter, brake fluid, spark plugs, and transmission oil. Below are additional items that may be required during a major maintenance: Throttle body cleaning: If the car is often idled or used in harsh climates such as hot and humid conditions, it is recommended to clean the throttle body. If the driving conditions are good, this can be postponed. Fuel filter replacement: During major maintenance, 4S shops will inspect the fuel lines. If replacement is needed, it should be done along with fuel injector cleaning. It is also recommended to replace the fuel filter.

My Sylphy has been driven for over four years, and a major service is generally recommended around 100,000 kilometers. Key tasks include changing the engine oil and filters, such as the air filter and oil filter, as well as checking wear-prone components like brake fluid and spark plugs. According to the Nissan manual, standard maintenance involves a minor service at 60,000 kilometers and a major service at the 100,000-kilometer mark, aimed at preventing engine carbon buildup or system failures. If you frequently drive on highways, it might be advisable to schedule the service slightly earlier. It's best to regularly visit a 4S shop to assess the vehicle's condition—don’t wait for warning lights to appear before taking action, as safety comes first. Additionally, while the cost of a major service isn’t low, it can save on repair expenses in the long run and extend the car’s lifespan.

As a Sylphy owner with over ten years of driving experience, I believe major maintenance is typically required between 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers, depending on driving habits. My car underwent a major service at 90,000 kilometers, including replacing filters and spark plugs, as well as adjusting the transmission fluid. Nissan recommends following the manual, generally conducting a comprehensive inspection every 100,000 kilometers, covering wear-prone components like the cooling system and belts. Remember, if you frequently drive in congested urban conditions, it's safer to schedule maintenance at 75,000 kilometers to prevent aging of critical components. Regular maintenance ensures stable and durable performance—I've never experienced a breakdown. Sharing this in hopes of helping others.

Newbie's perspective on driving a Sylphy: Major maintenance is recommended at 100,000 kilometers, which is the standard interval. The core tasks include changing the engine oil, filters, and other basic components, as well as checking the battery and tire conditions. When I first bought it last year, I asked the technician, who said that skipping maintenance for too long could affect performance, so it's best to stick to the schedule. To put it simply, don't exceed 105,000 kilometers—safe driving relies on proper maintenance.
