How many kilometers does the Lavida need for maintenance?
1 Answers
The Lavida requires maintenance every 7,500 kilometers. Additionally, Volkswagen provides a warranty period of 3 years or 100,000 kilometers for the Lavida, and the three-guarantee service is valid for 2 years or 50,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. Engine Oil Replacement: Engine oil (mineral oil, semi-synthetic, fully synthetic) replacement is the primary task at 40,000 kilometers. Regular car maintenance (every 7,000-10,000 kilometers) also requires oil changes, and at 40,000 kilometers, it is necessary to replace the oil again. There are three types of engine oil: mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and fully synthetic oil, with quality increasing in that order. Transmission Fluid Replacement: Most car maintenance manuals specify that transmission fluid should be replaced every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers. Transmission fluid is typically replaced during major maintenance services. The transmission is the link between the clutch and the drive shaft, with internal gears being very precise. Frequent gear shifting can easily cause the transmission fluid to deteriorate, which then fails to provide cooling and lubrication. Coolant Replacement: The replacement interval for car coolant is generally 2 years, which aligns well with the major maintenance cycle at 40,000 kilometers. Coolant usually comes in two colors: pink and blue. The cost of coolant is relatively low, so it is recommended to replace it according to the car's maintenance manual. Typically, coolant needs to be replenished after driving 40,000 kilometers.
