Maintenance may seem somewhat expensive, but vehicle breakdowns and repairs can be even more costly. A well-maintained vehicle is more dependable and will last longer.

 

A regular maintenance schedule should include:

Once a Month

• Check and maintain the proper air pressure in tires and inspect for normal wear
• Check brake fluid and power steering fluid levels
• Check all running lamps, break lights, back-up lights and turn signals

Every 3 Months (or 6,000kms)

• Change the engine oil and filter
• Check and maintain all fluid levels as necessary
• Lubricate suspension and steering linkage
• Inspect and replace all filters as required
• Inspect CV boots for damage or wear
• Inspect oil belts and hoses

When Stopping for Fuel

• Check engine oil and fluid levels
• Check coolant levels and coolant reservoir
• Visually check for under-inflated tires
• Check the windshield washer fluid levels
• Check for any fluids leaking from under the vehicle
