2 Answers
The first maintenance period for the Lavida Plus is 5,000 kilometers or six months. The following are the basic maintenance items for the Lavida Plus's first maintenance: 1. Replace engine oil and oil filter: Improve oil quality for smoother power and extend engine life; enhance the ability to filter impurities and debris. 2. Fuel filter: Remove impurities and moisture from the fuel to allow the engine to perform at its best. 3. Spark plugs: Prevent ignition difficulties and insufficient engine power. 4. Brake fluid: Absorb moisture from the air to improve braking performance and ensure driving safety. 5. Brake pads: Replace severely worn brake pads to maintain stable handling performance and braking effectiveness.
I'm a veteran car enthusiast and have driven many Volkswagen models. The first maintenance for the Lavida Plus should generally be done around 6 months after taking delivery or upon reaching 5,000 kilometers. This is the manufacturer's recommended timeframe, aimed at ensuring critical components like the engine and transmission aren't damaged. During the first maintenance, they typically change the engine oil and oil filter for free, check tire pressure, lights, and the braking system—all to eliminate early wear risks. I've seen many friends delay their first maintenance, resulting in louder engine noise and even higher repair costs later. Remember, schedule a visit to the 4S store as soon as it's time; don't cut corners. It directly impacts your car's lifespan and driving safety. Regular maintenance saves you a lot of hassle and ensures smoother driving.
