Is maintenance absolutely necessary at 10,000 kilometers?
1 Answers
This is not necessarily the case. Some vehicles require maintenance every 5,000 kilometers, while others require it every 7,500 kilometers. Below is an introduction to vehicle maintenance: 1. The interval for maintenance, whether measured in kilometers or time, depends on the usage environment, driving habits, and the type of engine oil used. Engine oil is often referred to as the lifeblood of the engine, serving functions such as lubrication, cleaning, sealing, heat dissipation, cushioning, and rust prevention. Without engine oil, the engine cannot operate properly. During each minor maintenance service, the most crucial task is changing the engine oil. 2. Engine oil needs to be replaced regularly as its lubricating properties degrade over time, which can lead to inadequate lubrication in the engine. Even if you drive infrequently, it's still important to replace the engine oil periodically because prolonged storage in the engine oil pan can cause oxidation and deterioration. To keep your vehicle in optimal condition, it's essential to perform regular maintenance and replace wear-and-tear parts on schedule. Always use genuine engine oil and parts when performing these replacements, as substandard products can harm your vehicle. For maintenance services, you can choose to visit either a 4S dealership or a professional repair shop.
