Is it necessary to service the car after running 5,000 kilometers?
1 Answers
It is necessary to service the car after running 5,000 kilometers, as car maintenance is based on a cycle. Below are the specific details: 1. First service time: The first service for a car should be done within 3-5 months. 2. First service mileage: The first service mileage ranges from 3,000 kilometers to 5,000 kilometers, and for some cars, it can even extend up to 8,000 kilometers. Here are some other details: 1. Maintenance items: Apart from changing the engine oil and oil filter, the first car service includes a comprehensive inspection and diagnosis of the vehicle's condition and usage. Usually, the first service items are free. If the technician suggests performing items not included in the first service, the car owner must inquire whether there will be additional charges before deciding whether to proceed. 2. Purpose of maintenance: During the first service of a new car, the vehicle's information such as the chassis number and frame number will be registered and uploaded to the manufacturer's nationwide warranty system. Missing the first service may likely result in the loss of warranty coverage.
