What is the maintenance interval for diesel vehicles?
1 Answers
Diesel vehicle maintenance intervals depend on the following conditions: 1. For normally driven vehicles, engine oil should generally be replaced every 5,000 kilometers. 2. For new vehicles, engine oil should typically be replaced after approximately 2,000 kilometers of driving. 3. Under normal circumstances, the air filter and fuel filter should be replaced every 10,000 kilometers. Here is additional information: 1. Diesel engines are generally more durable because they operate at relatively lower speeds, resulting in reduced wear on internal components. Additionally, diesel engines lack ignition systems and throttle valves, leading to relatively lower failure rates. The service life of a diesel engine can reach approximately 850,000 kilometers. 2. When starting a diesel pickup truck, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal too deeply, starting too quickly, or running at excessively high RPMs, especially during cold starts.
