1 Answers
New car first maintenance is required between 3 to 5 months, with the first maintenance mileage ranging from 3,000 to 5,000 kilometers. Typically, whichever comes first between the mileage and the specified first maintenance time is followed. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. The first maintenance requires changing the engine oil and oil filter. The items for the first maintenance of a new car are as follows: 1. Check whether the level of the car's coolant meets the specified requirements. 2. Check the fluid levels of the brake and clutch. 3. Check whether the oil level in the power steering fluid reservoir meets the specified requirements and inspect all oil pipe interfaces in the system for any leaks. 4. Check the fluid levels of the battery and the windshield washer fluid reservoir. 5. Check the tension and aging of the belts for the generator, air conditioning, water pump, and power steering pump. 6. Check whether all front and rear lights of the car are complete (including headlights, width indicator lights, turn signals, brake lights, reverse lights, and fog lights). 7. Check the tire pressure and wear condition of the car's tires, tighten the tire bolts to the specified torque, replenish the tire pressure to the model's specified value, and rotate the tires based on wear conditions. 8. Check whether the car's exhaust emissions meet the standards.
