The second maintenance for the Bora is at 10,000 kilometers or the 9th month after purchasing the new car, whichever comes first. Car maintenance, also known as car servicing, refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car. The Bora is the first independently designed model by FAW-Volkswagen, with body dimensions of 4523mm in length, 1775mm in width, 1467mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. In terms of appearance, the front design of the Bora incorporates Volkswagen's design language, integrating continuous lines into the front face design. Precise and bold lines connect the headlights with the chrome-plated grille, and the contour lines of the headlights perfectly match the internal design lines, complementing the chrome grille to form Volkswagen's iconic front face.

I've been driving my Volkswagen Bora for almost three years now. After getting the new car, the first maintenance was done at around 7,500 kilometers, and then the second maintenance came at approximately 15,000 kilometers, which is Volkswagen's standard recommendation. Generally, at this point, you need to change the engine oil and oil filter, and also check the brakes and tire pressure. I always choose authorized service centers for maintenance, which saves a lot of hassle. The earlier you do it, the better. If you delay a bit, the engine might accumulate carbon deposits or the noise could increase. My tip is, if you usually drive aggressively or the road conditions are poor, go a bit earlier—don't just stick to the exact numbers. Maintenance intervals should follow the vehicle manual, but 15,000 kilometers is a reliable benchmark. Maintaining good habits can extend the car's lifespan by several years. In short, regular maintenance is taking responsibility for your wallet.

As a new owner of a Bora, I asked the service staff at the 4S dealership, and they said the second maintenance is usually scheduled around 15,000 kilometers. After completing the first maintenance for a new car between 7,000 to 10,000 kilometers, the second maintenance follows. At this time, changing the engine oil and filter is essential, and they also check the electrical system to prevent minor issues. I think new owners often overlook maintenance schedules, so it's best to make an appointment around 14,000 kilometers. Don't try to save money by delaying, as it could affect the warranty or cause strange noises. I recommend downloading an app to set reminders and adjust flexibly based on the car's usage. The 15,000-kilometer mark isn't a strict rule; the manual is the gold standard. Timely maintenance protects the engine and avoids expensive repairs later on.

The second maintenance for the Bora is approximately at 15,000 kilometers, which is the manufacturer's regular schedule. Typically, the first maintenance is between 7,500 to 10,000 kilometers, followed by the second maintenance at an interval of six months or 15,000 kilometers. The service includes oil change, inspection, and tire pressure adjustment. Regular maintenance ensures engine efficiency and reduces the chances of trouble. Always refer to the manual first, and don't guess the mileage.

What does 225/55/r17 mean?

225/55/r17 refers to a tire with a width of 225mm, an aspect ratio of 55%, a radial structure, and a rim diameter of 17 inches. The following are related introductions to tire usage: Precautions for tire maintenance: Maintain a safe distance when driving at high speeds to avoid unnecessary or frequent braking, which can reduce tire damage; rotate the tires on the vehicle appropriately to ensure even wear; use tires with vertical tread patterns for the front wheels and horizontal tread patterns for the rear wheels; replace tires when the wear reaches the tread wear indicator. Tire replacement standards: Rubber has a certain service life. Under normal circumstances, car tires should be used for about 3-5 years because they are exposed to wind, sun, and rain for long periods, causing the rubber to gradually age. Aged tires lose strength, so they should be replaced promptly when they reach their service life.
