At what mileage should the Cadillac XT4 undergo its second maintenance?
2 Answers
Cadillac XT4's second maintenance is generally recommended at 15,000 kilometers. The maintenance intervals are typically 7,500 kilometers for minor services, primarily involving oil and oil filter changes. At 15,000 kilometers, a major service is performed, which includes replacing the three filters and windshield wipers during the oil change. Here are specific details about the Cadillac XT4: 1. In terms of exterior design, the XT4 adopts Cadillac's classic diamond-cut design language, featuring compact and masculine lines. For the first time, it introduces dual design themes—Luxury and Sport—to cater to different consumer preferences through subtle detailing. All models come standard with LED headlights, complemented by boomerang-shaped taillights. 2. The interior follows a new design language, continuing the extensive use of premium leather treatments. It incorporates various materials and colored trim panels to enhance a youthful and sporty ambiance, while also featuring ambient interior lighting to stay on-trend. 3. Under the hood, the XT4 is powered by a 2.0T turbocharged direct-injection engine with Start/Stop energy-saving technology, delivering instant power of 241 horsepower and 400Nm of torque. It is paired with a meticulously tuned 9-speed automatic transmission for seamless driving and improved fuel efficiency. The new 2.0T variable-cylinder turbocharged engine, based on the single-cylinder optimization concept, integrates advanced intelligent electrification technology. With Tripower variable valve management, it can monitor power output needs in real-time and switch among three driving modes: "4-cylinder high-performance mode," "4-cylinder economy mode," and "2-cylinder ultra-economy mode."
Last year, I bought a Cadillac XT4. As an ordinary office worker, the first maintenance was done around 5,000 kilometers as a free service. The 4S dealership reminded me at that time that the second maintenance should be performed around 10,000 kilometers. Now, I have driven up to 9,800 kilometers and am preparing to schedule the second maintenance, which mainly includes changing the engine oil and oil filter, and checking the brake system and tire wear. From personal experience, performing maintenance on time can avoid major repairs later on. A well-maintained Cadillac can last for many years. If you exceed the mileage without maintenance, the engine performance may decline, and fuel consumption may increase. I recommend everyone to refer to the owner's manual, which states that maintenance should be done every 7,500-10,000 kilometers or every six months for safety and peace of mind. New car owners shouldn't be lazy; developing good habits is very important.
