How often does the Baojun 530 require its first maintenance?
2 Answers
Baojun 530's first maintenance is due at 3 months or 5,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. The first maintenance for a new car generally includes the following items: 1. Check tire wear condition and determine if pressure adjustment is necessary; 2. Inspect the entire lighting system: headlights, indicators, emergency signal lights, trunk light, cabin lights, glove box light, dashboard warning lights; 3. Check the operation of the windshield wipers, their positioning, and wear condition; 4. Inspect the exterior of the body, underbody protective components, pipes, and rubber parts; 5. Check the condition of various control belts; 6. Inspect and adjust the handbrake travel; 7. Tighten chassis screws, as driving may cause unavoidable impacts, leading to loosened screws.
I remember clearly that the first maintenance for the Baojun 530 is usually at 5,000 kilometers or around six months after taking delivery of the car, whichever comes first. Back then, when my new car reached 4,800 kilometers, I went to the 4S shop for the first maintenance. The receptionist directly checked the VIN and started the service. The first maintenance mainly involves changing the engine oil and oil filter, checking the tires and brake pads, and updating the system data for you. Don’t delay it for too long because the engine break-in process generates some metal debris, and changing the oil early is good for the car. If you exceed the specified period, some 4S shops may cancel the free first maintenance policy, which would be a big loss.
