How many kilometers does the X-Trail need for its first maintenance?

The X-Trail requires its first maintenance at around 3,000 kilometers. The main tasks for the first maintenance are changing the engine oil and the oil filter. The X-Trail is a compact SUV from Dongfeng Nissan, with exterior dimensions of 4675 mm in length, 1820 mm in width, and 1722 mm in height. It has a wheelbase of 2706 mm, front track of 1575 mm, rear track of 1570 mm, minimum ground clearance of 208 mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 65 liters. The X-Trail is equipped with a 2.0L L4 engine, producing a maximum horsepower of 151 hp, maximum power of 111 kW at 6000 rpm, maximum torque of 194 Nm at 4400 rpm.

I asked the same question when I first bought my car. The X-Trail's first maintenance is recommended at 5,000 kilometers or three months, whichever comes first. Personally, I followed this guideline and went for the first maintenance as soon as the mileage hit 5,000. The main tasks included changing the engine oil and oil filter, cleaning out dust, and checking the brake pads and lighting system. The engine is breaking in during the first few thousand kilometers, so the first maintenance is crucial to prevent minor issues. If you delay the mileage, any problems during the warranty period might not be covered—my neighbor learned this the hard way. Also, keep an eye on fuel consumption changes during daily driving; it usually stabilizes after the first maintenance. In short, just follow the manual and don’t stress too much, but don’t postpone it either. Developing good habits can help your car last longer and be more reliable.

As a family car, I'm quite familiar with the X-Trail, with its first service at 5,000 km. I often travel with my kids, so safety comes first, which is why I made sure to get the first service done right at 5,000 km. The process was straightforward—oil change and chassis inspection, along with a quick check on the lights and braking system. The first service for a new car is often free or comes with significant discounts, so don't miss the opportunity. Regular maintenance helps prevent major issues, giving peace of mind during long road trips like ours. I also recommend using an app to track mileage and set reminders—if you drive aggressively, consider scheduling service a bit earlier. Keeping an eye on your car's condition saves money and ensures family safety. Getting the first service done reduces problems later and saves big on future costs.
