REPLACE OR SERVICE ITEMS |
| |
Your vehicle manufacturer recommends that you
have the following items serviced and/or replaced at 87,000 miles. |
| |
Maintenance Item |
| |
- Change Engine Oil
Engine oil is used to lubricate moving engine parts and operate some
hydraulic parts of the engine itself. Engine oil performs many functions
such as cleaning, cooling, lubricating and preserving. The engine
oil should be routinely checked for fluid level & condition and
replaced if too dirty or lost lubricating qualities.
|
| |
- Lube Steering Linkage
The Steering Linkage transfers movement from the steering rack or
steering gear to the wheels. The Steering Linkage should be inspected
regularly to avoid problems with steering, alignment and tire wear.
|
 |
'CATCH-UP' SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE |
| |
Items based on the maintenance Schedule
that should have been recommended within the last 30,000 miles. |
| |
Maintenance Item |
| |
- Replace Air Cleaner
Filter/Element (Apr proximately Every 30,000 miles)
The Air Cleaner Filter/Element prevents dirt and other material from
entering the engine's intake system. A dirty air cleaner may cause
engine performance concerns such as low power, poor fuel economy or
a rough running engine. Replace air cleaner filters in accordance
with manufacturer service schedule.
|
| |
- Service Automatic Transmission (Approximately
every 12,000 miles)
The Automatic transmission transfers power from the engine to the
driving wheels in several gear ranges. It also allows reverse operation.
Automatic Transmission Fluid should be changed regularly as prescribed
by the manufacturer service instructions to reduce wear of internal
parts, and ensure optimal operation of transmission.
|
| |
- Replace Axle Fluid/Oil, Front (Approximately
every 12,000 miles)
Differential Gear Oil is heavy weight oil used to lubricate the gears
and bearings in front or rear differentials. Periodic servicing of
Differential Gear Oil is recommended to maintain axle condition.
|
| |
- Replace Axle Fluid/Oil, Rear (Approximately
every 12,000 miles)
Differential Gear Oil is heavy weight oil used to lubricate the gears
and bearings in front or rear differentials. Periodic servicing of
Differential Gear Oil is recommended to maintain axle condition.
|
| |
Maintenance Item |
| |
- Flush Engine Coolant
Engine Coolant helps remove excess heat from the engine and keeps
it at a normal operating temperature It also provides for the climate
control system and protection against overheating and freezing in
colder temperatures. Engine Coolant should be inspected regularly
for condition of freeze/boil protection, corrosion resistance and
level. If determined to be inadequate the Engine Coolant System's
antifreeze/coolant should be changed or flushed at regular intervals
to ensure optimal engine performance.
|
| |
- Replace Spark Plug Wires
The Spark Plug Wires carry the ignition spark from the distributor
or ignition coil to the spark plug. The Spark Plug wires insulation
can deteriorate over time due to extreme temperature changes under
the hood. Condition of wires should, defective wires should be replaced
to prevent misfire, low power, rough running engine or stalling.
|
| |
- Replace Spark Plugs
The Spark Plugs are located in the cylinder
and ignite the compressed air fuel mixture in
the combustion chamber or cylinder which
forces the pistons down. This is a key
process of what makes the engine run. The Spark Plug electrodes wear
with use. Regular spark plug inspections should be performed at the
recommended intervals and the spark plugs should be replaced when
severely worn.
|
| |
- Replace Transfer Case Oil
Transfer Case Fluid lubricates the internal shafts, gears and seals
during operation. Transfer Case Fluid that is changed regularly as
per manufacturer instructions may reduce internal component wear and
improve performance.
