Changan Automobile's first maintenance regulation requires the first maintenance to be done within 5,000 kilometers or 90 days (whichever comes first). Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the car clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate hidden dangers, prevent failures, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life. First maintenance content: Replace engine oil and oil filter; check the operation of the braking system, such as the gap and wear of brake pads and discs; tighten the bolts of various systems; check and adjust the drive belt; check and adjust tire balance and alignment; check and replenish various fluids; check the operation of lights, battery, shock absorbers, and other components. First maintenance precautions: During the first maintenance of a new car, pay attention to the inspection of tire tread and pressure, which is related to driving safety. In addition, remove small stones and other debris stuck on the tires to ensure the front and rear tire pressure is uniformly inflated to 2.4 KG/CM2. At the same time, perform a four-wheel alignment check, inspect tire pressure and wear condition, and rotate the tires if necessary.
Changan Automobile's first maintenance policy stipulates that new vehicles should receive a free initial service within 5,000 kilometers or six months (whichever comes first), which I find quite convenient. As a new owner who just went through the first maintenance, I still remember that visit to the 4S dealership. The technician changed the engine oil and oil filter for free, and also conducted a comprehensive inspection of the braking system, tire pressure, lighting circuits, and suspension components to ensure everything was in order. The car runs much smoother now, especially with the engine noise noticeably reduced. I recommend not delaying after purchasing a new car—stick to the scheduled maintenance to avoid minor issues leading to major problems. It wouldn’t be cost-effective if you exceed the deadline and have to pay out of pocket. Keep an eye on the odometer and schedule an appointment before hitting 5,000 km—Changan's service attitude is quite good too. The first maintenance isn’t just a formality; it helps the new car break in smoothly, extends its lifespan, and saves money while giving peace of mind.
