How often should the Leiling Hybrid be serviced?
2 Answers
The Leiling Hybrid should be serviced approximately once a year or every 10,000 kilometers. Maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car maintenance. The Leiling Hybrid is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4640mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1455mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. The Leiling Hybrid features front-wheel drive, a front MacPherson independent suspension, and a rear E-type multi-link independent suspension, with tire specifications of 205/55R16.
I remember maintenance was quite crucial when driving the Leiling Hybrid. Generally, I go for maintenance every 10,000 kilometers or once a year, whichever comes first. This interval is based on Toyota's manual recommendations. I've been driving for five years without any issues, mainly commuting in city traffic with frequent engine starts, which makes the engine oil dirty faster. I usually check it at around 8,000 kilometers. The key is changing the engine oil and filter to keep the engine lubricated smoothly. The hybrid system saves fuel but also requires proper maintenance of the battery cooling system. Never skimp on maintenance or delay it. Last time, my friend delayed maintenance by two months and ended up paying over a thousand yuan to fix the air conditioning. I recommend going to the 4S dealership—they have specialized equipment to check high-voltage circuit safety. In short, regular maintenance ensures a longer-lasting car with fewer problems and saves fuel and money.
