Maintenance Sub Items

Rotate tires

If you drive in dusty conditions, replace every
15,000 miles (24,000 km).

Replace dust and pollen filter

If you drive primarily in urban areas that have high
concentrations of soot in the air from industry and
from diesel-powered vehicles, replace every 15,000
miles (24,000 km).

Inspect drive belt
Replace transmission fluid

Driving in mountainous areas at very low vehicle
speeds results in higher transmission temperatures.
On vehicles with automatic transmission, this
requires transmission fluid changes more
frequently than recommended by the Maintenance
Minder. If you regularly drive your vehicle under
these conditions, have the transmission fluid
changed at 60,000 miles (100,000 km), then every
30,000 miles (48,000 km).

Replace spark plugs
Replace timing belt and inspect water pump

If you drive regularly in very high temperatures (over
110°F, 43°C), or in very low temperatures (under

20°F,

29°C), replace every 60,000 miles (U.S.)/

100,000 km (Canada).
