What is the mileage for Toyota's first maintenance?
2 Answers
Toyota's first maintenance is at 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, whichever comes first. Below is the relevant information: 1. Toyota's first maintenance is free. In addition to replacing consumables, it also includes checking the fluid level of the brake and clutch, verifying that the power steering fluid level meets specifications, and inspecting all oil pipe interfaces in the system for any leaks. 2. The period before the first maintenance is generally referred to as the break-in period. During this time, since the gears of the engine, transmission, etc., have not yet fully broken in smoothly, it is generally advised not to drive too fast. It's best not to exceed 80 mph, keep the speed below 100 mph, and avoid engine speeds exceeding 3,000 rpm. Otherwise, it may negatively affect the engine's break-in. If a new car is properly broken in during this period, there will be fewer issues in the future, and the car will be more fuel-efficient.
I remember when I bought my first Toyota, the first maintenance mileage was 5,000 kilometers, which was a starting point for me because after the break-in period, the car needed inspection and adjustments, mainly changing the engine oil, checking the brake pads and filters, to ensure everything runs smoothly. If not done on time, engine wear would increase, affecting long-term performance. I also found that Toyota's first maintenance is often a free service, so don't miss it—just go to the 4S shop on schedule. Subsequent maintenance is every 5,000 or 10,000 kilometers, arranged according to the vehicle's manual. By the way, different models may have slight differences, such as the Corolla or Camry. It's recommended that owners read the manual more often and develop a recording habit to avoid forgetting. In short, the first maintenance is very important and can protect the lifespan of your beloved car.
