Nissan Sylphy's first maintenance is at 1,000 kilometers. The primary tasks during the first maintenance include changing the engine oil and oil filter. Engine oil, which is the lubricant for engine operation, plays a crucial role in lubricating, cleaning, cooling, and sealing the engine. It significantly reduces wear and tear on engine components and extends their service life. During engine operation, the oil filter removes metal particles generated by friction between parts and oil oxides from the air. The Nissan Sylphy is a new strategic model launched globally by Nissan. The vehicle measures 4,631 mm in length, 1,760 mm in width, and 1,503 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,700 mm.

I remember when I drove my new Nissan Sylphy, the first maintenance was scheduled at 5,000 kilometers, which the salesperson emphasized during delivery—don’t overlook it. The engine is still in the break-in period during the first few thousand kilometers, accumulating metal debris and impurities. The first oil change helps remove these and prolongs engine life. I made sure to visit the 4S shop right at 5,000 km—they performed a full inspection, including oil filter, tires, and lights, all either free or very affordable, taking about an hour. After that, regular maintenance is every 10,000 km, but the first service is especially critical. Delaying it might affect the warranty or even lead to higher fuel consumption or reduced power. I’d advise new car owners to book an appointment at the manual’s designated location in advance to avoid peak-hour queues.

As a Sylphy owner, I checked the manual and confirmed the first maintenance is at 5,000 kilometers, which is common for most Japanese cars. The reason is simple: new engine components are just breaking in, and the first service can prevent minor issues from becoming serious. When I went, it included an oil change and basic inspection, which was quite hassle-free. It's advisable to bring the maintenance card and driver's license, and don't delay the mileage. Subsequent maintenance should be done every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers depending on the car's condition, and doing it on time can save on repair costs. During daily driving, pay attention to not revving the engine too high during the break-in period, for example, don't exceed 120 km/h on highways, to protect the car. This mileage marker is very important; a friend of mine forgot once, and the engine noise became noticeably louder.

From an automotive perspective, the first maintenance for the Sylphy is typically at the 5,000-kilometer mark. This is based on engine lubrication needs: metal particles generated during the initial phase of a new car can contaminate the engine oil, and the first oil change can optimize performance. During actual maintenance, it also includes filter replacement and data reading, which doesn’t take long. Remember this mileage to avoid delays, as delayed maintenance can lead to carbon buildup or increased wear, making repairs more expensive later. Subsequent minor checks are recommended every 5,000 kilometers, and regular maintenance ensures smoother driving. During the break-in period of a new car, drive at moderate speeds and avoid excessively high engine temperatures to help extend the overall lifespan.

I've been driving a Sylphy for many years, and the first maintenance was done at 5,000 kilometers. This distance is easy to forget, so I recommend setting a phone reminder. During that stage, the engine of a new car is still adapting, and during maintenance, the technician checks the oil circuit and cooling system to detect early hidden dangers. Protecting a family car like this can save both trouble and money. I've experienced the consequences of delay: increased noise and even affected warranty terms. Subsequent routine services should be done every six months or 10,000 kilometers, and booking in advance can help avoid queues. Remember, after the first oil change, short trips become smoother, and long-distance driving becomes more reassuring.
