Is the first maintenance at 3,000 kilometers or 5,000 kilometers?
1 Answers
The first maintenance should be done at 5,000 kilometers or six months, whichever comes first. This means the first maintenance can be performed within 5,000 kilometers. If there are special instructions in the vehicle's manual, follow the time specified in the manual. Relevant information is introduced as follows: 1. Key items of the first maintenance: The key items of the first maintenance include changing the engine oil and oil filter, as well as a full vehicle system inspection, such as tightening nuts, checking the chassis, tire inspection, and system computer diagnostics. 2. Reasons for changing the engine oil and oil filter: The main focus of the first maintenance is changing the engine oil and oil filter because the period before the first maintenance is the vehicle's break-in period. During this time, the gradually breaking-in engine will introduce mechanical impurities such as dust, metal wear, and carbon deposits into the engine oil. This is also why driving at high speeds during the break-in period is not recommended, as the engine oil contains too many impurities, which can lead to abnormal engine wear if driven at high speeds.
