How often should a new Mondeo be serviced?
1 Answers
A new Mondeo should undergo routine maintenance every 5,000 kilometers or every six months, which typically includes changing the engine oil, oil filter, and air filter. Engine oil serves four main functions: cooling, lubrication, cleaning, and sealing, all of which are crucial for ensuring the proper operation of the engine. Its primary roles are lubrication, cleaning, and heat dissipation. After prolonged driving, the oil filter and fuel filter accumulate a significant amount of impurities, leading to incomplete fuel combustion, reduced fuel efficiency, and increased fuel consumption. Therefore, regular replacement is recommended. The air filter also collects dust and bacteria, and if not replaced, the contaminated air circulating inside the vehicle can negatively affect human health.
