At Every Oil Change Interval as Indicated by the Information Display1
Inspect the steering linkage, ball joints, suspension, tie-rod ends, driveshaft and the U-joints. Lubricate any components that have grease fittings.
Inspect front oil hubs for leaks and check fluid level through hub cap sight glass.
1 Do not exceed one year/10,000 mi (16,000 km) or 350 engine hours between serviceintervals.2 Reset the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor after engine oil and filter changes. See Oil ChangeIndicator Reset (page 229).3 Rotate the front wheels on vehicles with dual rear wheels when specified. Only rotatethe rear wheels if you notice unusual wear.
Brake Fluid Maintenance1
Change the brake fluid.2Every 3 Years
1 Perform this maintenance item every 3 years. Do not exceed the designated time forthe interval.2 Brake fluid servicing requires special equipment available at your authorized dealer.
Other Maintenance Items1
Replace the engine-mounted and frame-mounted fuel
filters.2Every 22,000 mi(36,000 km)
Inspect the engine and secondary cooling system coolantconcentration, freeze-point protection, additive, corrosioninhibitor, strength, coolant level, and hoses. Add coolant
additive if necessary.3
Every 30,000 mi(48,000 km)Note: When adding coolant additive, do not exceed thespecified maximum of 47 fl oz (1.4 L) for the engine and20 fl oz (473 ml) for the secondary cooling system. Oper-ating the engine with excessive coolant additive may causeoverheating which could lead to severe, permanent enginedamage.
