How Long Does New Car Maintenance Take?

[Kinsley]

New cars require maintenance every 6 months or 5,000 kilometers. Even if the 5,000-kilometer mark isn't reached within 6 months, maintenance is still necessary. Below is an introduction to new car maintenance: 1. First Maintenance: The timing for the first maintenance of a new car is specified in the car maintenance manual, varying by model. However, it is generally set within the range of 5,000 kilometers/6 months or 10,000 kilometers/1 year. Do not delay or replace parts on your own. 2. Replacements: For the first maintenance of a new car, replace the oil filter, change the oil, and replace the air filter. The oil filter can be considered the car's 'lungs,' helping the car obtain cleaner oil to protect the engine and extend the car's lifespan. 3. Break-in Period: The first 1,500 kilometers is the break-in period for a new car. During this time, it is recommended not to overload the car, as this can cause wear to the engine, transmission, and other components. Additionally, use high-quality, low-viscosity lubricating oil to reduce the degree of wear on mechanical parts.
