Drive Belts
Inspect for cracks, excessive wear and oiliness. Check the belt tension
and adjust if necessary. Replace the belts if they are damaged.
Drive Shaft Boots
Check the drive shaft boots and clamps for cracks, deterioration
and damage. Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts and, if
necessary, repack the grease. A qualified technician should perform
these operations.
Engine Air Filter
Replace at specified intervals. When performing inspections, check
for damage, excessive wear and oiliness, and replace if necessary.
Engine Coolant
Drain and flush the cooling system and refill with an ethylene-glycol
type coolant. Inspect the radiator, condenser and/or intercooler for
leaves, dirt and insects and clean if necessary. Inspect hoses and con-
nections for corrosion and leaks. Tighten connections and replace parts
as necessary. A qualified technician should perform these operations.
Note:Your Scion is equipped with Genuine Toyota Super Long-Life
Coolant. The replacement intervals for engine coolant recommended
in this booklet are based on replacement with Genuine Toyota Super
Long-Life Coolant or similar high-quality non-silicate, non-amine,
non-borate ethylene-glycol coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid
technology (i.e., a combination of low phosphates and organic acids). If
another type of ethylene-glycol coolant is used, replacement intervals
may be different.
Engine Oil and Oil Filter
Replace the oil filter and drain and refill the engine oil at specified
intervals. For recommended oil grade and viscosity, refer to the
Owner’s Manual.
Engine Valve Clearance
Inspect for excessive lifter noise and engine vibration and adjust if
necessary. A qualified technician should perform this operation.

Exhaust Pipes and Mountings
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hangers for cracks,
deterioration and damage. Start the engine and listen carefully for
any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections or replace parts as
necessary.
Fuel Lines and Connections, Fuel Tank Band and
Fuel Tank Vapor Vent System Hoses
Visually inspect for corrosion, damage, cracks and loose or leaking
connections. Tighten connections or replace parts as necessary.
Fuel Tank Cap Gasket
Visually inspect for cracks, deterioration and damage and replace
if necessary.
Nuts and Bolts on Chassis and Body
Re-tighten the seat-mounting bolts and front/rear suspension member
retaining bolts to specified torque.
Radiator Core and Condenser
Inspect for damage, debris, dirt, insects and signs of leakage. Have any
problem repaired by a qualified technician.
Spark Plugs
Replace at specified intervals. Install new plugs of the same type
as originally equipped. A qualified technician should perform this
operation.
Steering Gear Box
Inspect for signs of leakage. If you discover any leakage, have it
repaired immediately by a qualified technician.
Steering Linkage and Boots
With the vehicle stopped, check for excessive freeplay in the steering
wheel. Inspect the linkage for bending and damage and the dust boots
for deterioration, cracks and damage. Replace any damaged parts. A
qualified technician should perform these operations.
Tire Rotation
Tires should be rotated according to the instructions in the Owner’s
Manual
. When rotating tires, check for damage and uneven wear.
Replace if necessary.
