Have more questions about your Toyota?
Here are some of the Frequently Asked Questions we get about servicing a Toyota vehicle
How often should I service my Toyota?
Camry, Hybrid Camry, Aurion (after Jan 2009 compliance plate) and '86 should be serviced every 9 months or 15,000kms whichever is first. Camry and Aurion (before Jan 2009 compliance plate) every 12 months or 15,000kms whichever is first. All other Toyota vehicles every 6 months or 10,000kms whichever is first.
What is routine maintenance on a Toyota?
- Check oil and coolant at each fuel stop
- Every 5,000 kms: Rotate tyres (check tyre inflation and condition at least once per month)
- Every 5,000 kms or every 3 months, whichever comes first: Replace engine oil
When should the timing belt be changed on a Honda?
The general timeline you'll want to follow is to replace your timing belt anywhere between 100,000 and 160,000 kms or every 5-7 years whichever is first, however it is best to keep up your regular servicing and your Repco Authorised mechanic will advise when and if this is required.
What percentage oil life should I change it?
It is recommended that you change the oil when the oil life indicator on your car drops to a value between 15% and 40%. Your car's oil life indicator is, in essence, a countdown clock to the point at which your car will no longer function at peak efficiency.
How often should a Toyota transmission be serviced?
If you're driving a manual Toyota, it is recommended you change your transmission fluid every 80,000kms. More importantly, it is important that the fluid is genuine fluid because the wrong fluid can cause issues. The team at Rodney's Mechanical Repair Centre can help when you book your Toyota service.
