What is the first maintenance mileage for the 2020 Boyue?
2 Answers
The first maintenance for the 2020 Boyue is at 5,000 kilometers or within 3 months, whichever comes first. The first maintenance items include: Oil and oil filter replacement, battery inspection, brake pedal and parking brake inspection, brake pads and brake disc inspection, brake fluid inspection, clutch fluid inspection, tire and tire pressure inspection, lights, horn, wipers and washer inspection, and onboard electronic system inspection, etc. Engine oil selection for first maintenance: The official first maintenance uses Shell semi-synthetic engine oil with a viscosity grade of 5W-40. Taking 0W-20 as an example: the 0W in 0W-20 indicates the cold start performance of the oil. Using oil with a lower number before W makes it easier to start the engine in cold weather. The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the oil's viscosity characteristics at high temperatures. Higher viscosity oil may be more suitable for high-speed driving or heavy-load vehicles.
I remember after driving for many years, the first maintenance for the 2020 Boyue is recommended at around 5,000 kilometers, which is particularly important for protecting the new car's engine. When a new car first leaves the factory, its parts need to break in. After 5,000 kilometers, metal shavings accumulate in the engine oil, and not changing the oil in time increases the risk of wear and tear, and may also affect subsequent warranty claims. Back when I bought my car, I made sure to take it to the 4S dealership for maintenance right at the 5,000-kilometer mark. The service included free oil and oil filter changes, as well as checks on the tires and lights. Delaying the first maintenance can easily lead to minor faults accumulating into major problems, such as increased engine noise or higher fuel consumption. Regular maintenance isn't just about saving money—it's a key factor in ensuring driving safety. I recommend all new car owners strictly follow the odometer readings.
