Is the first maintenance of Binyue free?
3 Answers
The first maintenance of Binyue is free. The items included in the first maintenance are: 1. Replace engine oil, oil filter, clean the air filter, and check whether the generator belt and wiper blades are damaged; 2. Check whether the levels of various fluids are normal; 3. Check whether the tire pressure is normal and whether the tires have uneven wear, bulges, or damage; 4. Inspect the car chassis, including the brake pads, brake discs, connecting rods, ball joints, and CV joints for scratches; 5. Check whether all switches and lights in the car are working properly. Taking the 2020 Binyue as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4330mm, width 1800mm, height 1609mm, wheelbase 2600mm, and fuel tank capacity 45l.
I've checked the maintenance manual for Geely cars, and the first maintenance for the Binyue is indeed free. When purchasing the car, the 4S dealership will provide you with a first maintenance card. Just bring the card when you reach 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, otherwise it will expire. Remember to also bring your vehicle license and maintenance manual, as the system needs to register the vehicle information. The first maintenance includes basic items: oil and oil filter replacement, full vehicle circuit inspection, tire pressure adjustment, etc. If they recommend cleaning the throttle body or adding fuel additives, those will incur additional charges. It's advisable to make an appointment in advance, as weekends are busy and the wait can be long. This policy is uniform nationwide and can be performed at authorized dealerships in cities at the county level or above.
I just accompanied my friend for the first maintenance of the Binyue, and indeed, it was free. However, pay attention to the time frame—don't exceed six months or 5,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. The free services mainly include an oil change and routine inspection, with semi-synthetic oil used for the change. If you've modified the car lights or exhaust system, make sure to mention it in advance, as some modifications can affect the warranty. The entire maintenance process takes about 40 minutes, and I recommend keeping an eye on the technician's work. I've seen apprentices spill oil in the engine bay. Keep the maintenance record book safe; it's an important document when selling the car in the future.
