clean cloth makes them last
longer, seal better, and not stick
or squeak.

.Fuel system inspection for
damage or leaks.
First Engine Oil Change After
Every 80 000 km/50,000 Miles
.Engine air cleaner filter
replacement. See Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter on page 10‑17.
.Automatic transmission fluid
change (severe service) for
vehicles mainly driven in heavy
city traffic in hot weather, in
hilly or mountainous terrain,
when frequently towing a
trailer, or used for taxi, police,
or delivery service. See
Automatic Transmission Fluid
on
page 10‑12.
.Four‐wheel drive only: Transfer
case fluid change. Check vent
hose at transfer case for kinks
and proper installation. Check
to be sure vent hose is
unobstructed, clear, and free of
debris. During any maintenance,
if a power washer is used to
clean mud and dirt from the
underbody, care should be taken
to not directly spray the transfer
case output seals. High pressure
water can overcome the seals
and contaminate the transfer
case fluid. Contaminated fluid
will decrease the life of the
transfer case and should be
replaced.
