How many liters of transmission fluid does the Tiida require?

Tiida transmission fluid: manual transmission requires approximately 2 liters, while CVT (continuously variable transmission) requires around 4 liters. There are currently 4 models of Tiida available for sale, with the manual version equipped with a manual transmission and the others featuring CVT. Manual transmission fluid is generally recommended to be replaced every three years or approximately 100,000 kilometers, while CVT fluid is advised to be changed every two years or around 60,000 kilometers. Symptoms indicating the need for transmission fluid replacement include: vehicle shaking, gear shifting hesitation; transmission overheating warning appearing on the dashboard; engine stalling; unusual noises. Long-term neglect of transmission fluid replacement can lead to: damage to the transmission's shift control mechanism; abnormal wear of gears and clutch plates inside the transmission; impaired transmission operation, resulting in damage to the transmission valve body. Methods for replacing transmission fluid are as follows: Unscrew the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old fluid before refilling. Remove the transmission oil pan directly for draining and refilling: this method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities from the bottom of the oil pan. Use a circulation machine to replace automatic transmission fluid: dynamic fluid replacement with an intelligent circulation machine can filter and clean sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission.

What is the mileage for Toyota's first maintenance?

Toyota's first maintenance is at 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, whichever comes first. Below is the relevant information: 1. Toyota's first maintenance is free. In addition to replacing consumables, it also includes checking the fluid level of the brake and clutch, verifying that the power steering fluid level meets specifications, and inspecting all oil pipe interfaces in the system for any leaks. 2. The period before the first maintenance is generally referred to as the break-in period. During this time, since the gears of the engine, transmission, etc., have not yet fully broken in smoothly, it is generally advised not to drive too fast. It's best not to exceed 80 mph, keep the speed below 100 mph, and avoid engine speeds exceeding 3,000 rpm. Otherwise, it may negatively affect the engine's break-in. If a new car is properly broken in during this period, there will be fewer issues in the future, and the car will be more fuel-efficient.
