What is the general mileage for a vehicle's first maintenance?
1 Answers
Vehicle first maintenance mileage generally requires attention to the following: 1. The period from when a new car is driven until its first maintenance is called the break-in period. During the break-in period, since the gears of the engine, transmission, etc. have not yet fully worn in smoothly, we generally should not drive too fast—absolutely do not exceed 100 km/h, and it's best not to exceed 80 km/h. 2. During the break-in period, in addition to not exceeding 100 km/h, the engine speed should also not exceed 3000 RPM. Avoid accelerating too aggressively, as it can negatively affect the engine's break-in. A proper break-in will result in fewer driving issues later and better fuel efficiency. 3. At what mileage should a new car undergo its first maintenance? After a new car is driven, 4S shops usually require owners to come in for the first maintenance within 3000 km. However, car manufacturers actually require owners to complete the first maintenance within 5000 km. Therefore, it is crucial not to exceed 5000 km before getting the first maintenance. If normal maintenance is not performed according to the user manual, it is equivalent to voiding the warranty, and the 4S shop and manufacturer have the right to refuse warranty repairs if issues arise.
