What is needed for a car's first maintenance?

For the first maintenance of a car, you need to bring your driver's license, maintenance manual, and warranty manual. During the first maintenance, the 4S shop will register the vehicle's information such as the chassis number and frame number into the computer system. This allows brand 4S shops nationwide to access the information, enabling nationwide warranty coverage for the car. Items included in the first maintenance of a car: 1. Replace the engine oil, oil filter, fuel filter, and air filter; 2. Check if the level of the car's coolant meets the specified requirements; 3. Check the level of the brake and clutch fluid; 4. Inspect the tension and aging of the belts for the generator, air conditioning, water pump, and power steering pump; 5. Check if all front and rear lights of the car are functioning; 6. Check the tire pressure and wear condition; 7. Check if the car's exhaust emissions meet the standards, etc.

Taking your car for its first maintenance is quite straightforward. I remember feeling a bit nervous during my first visit. The key is to bring the vehicle's warranty manual or service card, as this is the crucial proof for free maintenance at the 4S dealership—they need it to check the warranty status. Don’t forget the car keys, or the technician won’t be able to work on the car. I also recommend bringing your ID or driver’s license in case they need to verify your identity. The first maintenance is usually done within the first 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers, where they mainly change the engine oil and oil filter, along with checking safety components like tires and brakes. Booking an appointment and bringing the appointment slip will save time and reduce waiting. Additionally, clearing out any clutter in the car makes it easier for the technician to work. New car maintenance is often free, so there’s no need to stress. With these preparations, the whole process will go smoothly.

The first car maintenance isn't that complicated. Having driven multiple vehicles, I know the ropes. The key is to bring the warranty manual - it's the voucher for free services that dealerships love to see. Don't forget your car keys; it'd be troublesome if you can't start the engine. I recommend bringing a notebook to record maintenance details like the oil type changed, which helps future reference. The first maintenance mainly involves routine oil and filter changes, plus a general vehicle and system inspection. Bring your appointment confirmation if you've scheduled in advance for faster service. I always check my lights beforehand and report any abnormalities. Don't overthink it - just bring the essentials to get everything done efficiently and safely in one go.

The car key allows the technician to start the vehicle and inspect the powertrain. ID may be required for verification to prevent incorrect charges. Maintenance includes oil changes and safety inspections of components. Having these documents ready ensures a quick and hassle-free process, minimizing delays and worries.
