What is the first inspection mileage for the Avalon?
2 Answers
The first inspection for the Avalon is at 5,000 kilometers. During this inspection, only the wear-prone components such as engine oil, oil filter, tires, and lights need to be checked. It's important to note that the first inspection is different from the first maintenance. The first maintenance is performed at 10,000 kilometers or six months of driving. Below is an introduction to the content and precautions for the first maintenance: Content of the first maintenance: Tighten the engine compartment and inspect and tighten all mechanical connection points and nuts; check tire tread and pressure, and remove small stones or debris stuck in the tires; replace engine oil and oil filter; use software to inspect the vehicle's electronic systems, check and adjust all lights, and inspect the suspension and braking systems; add lubricants, check the hinges of front and rear doors, automatic opening and closing of doors and sunroof glass, and inspect the chassis condition. Precautions for the first maintenance: Before the first maintenance, record any issues the vehicle may have and inform the service staff at the 4S shop. Before maintenance, review the user manual to understand the general scope of the maintenance. Many 4S shops offer free services for the first maintenance of new cars. Secure or remove valuable items from the car, such as mobile phones or cash, and store them at home or carry them with you.
As a reliable family sedan, I often pay attention to the maintenance schedule of the Avalon. According to Toyota's standards, the first inspection is usually conducted around 5,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to a few months of driving for a new car. It mainly involves a free oil change and inspection of key components, including tire wear, brake system, and fluid levels. If you don't go on time, you might miss warranty conditions or cause premature engine wear. I recommend fellow car owners to note down the mileage and not delay until 6,000 kilometers to take action. Regular maintenance can save you both trouble and money. Having used the car for several years myself, I found that timely first inspection helps maintain better performance and stable fuel consumption. It's worth developing this habit—safety first.
