Rear Axle Maintenance
A rear axle fluid change or level check isnot required unless you suspect a leak orthe assembly has been submerged inwater. During long periods of trailer towingwith outside temperatures above 70°F(21°C), and at wide-open throttle for longperiods above 45 mph (72 km/h), changethe rear axle fluid every 24,000 mi(38,000 km) or three months, whichevercomes first.
California Fuel Filter Replacement
If you register your vehicle in California, theCalifornia Air Resources Board hasdetermined that the failure to perform thismaintenance item does not nullify theemission warranty or limit recall liabilitybefore the completion of your vehicle'suseful life. We, however, urge you to haveall recommended maintenance servicesperformed at the specified intervals andto record all vehicle service.
Hot Climate Oil Change Intervals
The normal oil change interval is 3,000 mi(5,000 km) for gasoline vehicles operatingin the Middle East, North Africa,Sub-Saharan Africa or locations withsimilar climates using American PetroleumInstitute (API) oils Certified for GasolineEngines and displaying the API CertificationMark. If API Certified Oils are not available,then it is acceptable to use API SM or SNoils. If API oils are not available, then theoil change interval is 1,750 mi (3,000 km).
Engine Air Filter Replacement
The life of the engine air filter is dependenton exposure to dusty and dirty conditions.Vehicles operated in these conditionsrequire frequent inspection andreplacement of the engine air filter andcabin air filter.
Diesel Particulate Filter
Over time, a slight amount of ash buildsup in the diesel particulate filter, which isnot removed during the regenerationprocess. The filter may need to be replacedwith a new or remanufactured part atapproximately 250,000 mi (400,000 km).Actual mileage varies depending on engineand vehicle operating conditions.
In this case, the engine control system setsa service light (wrench icon) to inform youto bring your vehicle to the dealer forservice. If there are any issues with theoxidation catalyst or particulate filtersystem, a service light (wrench or engineicon) sets by the engine control system toinform you to bring your vehicle into adealer for service.
