Service Intervals

[jay dh]

i dont think this q has been asked before but i did search

my yaris is 3 and a half years old, it will clock 20k millage in the next month or so.

the car was serviced 6 months ago and i dont think it needs a service again as it has only been 6 months. but i remember seeing somewhere that 20k is a big service so should it still have a service?

the next service would be when the car has a bout 24k in 6 months time.

it wont be going to a toyota dealer

cheers

In your manual, it should outline service intervals.

It should be every 10k miles or every 1 year, which ever comes first.

Your 2 year service should have been the equivalent of the 20k service.

Your next service should be a 4 year service (equivalent to 40k miles).

oh ok

wasnt sure if it needed a 20k service still needed something, car can wait then

If your car was serviced by Mr T, you should have a breakdown on your invoice/ service report, of what was done at your 2 years service.

Check it against your owners manual.

For mine, it was oil & filter change, and then inspection of everything else.

If memory serves me, it's time for a brake fluid change at 4 years. Possibly hoses as well?
