RAV4-Maintenance Diary that has been with me for 7 years

Time flies by and time flies. The RAV4 I bought when I got married has been released. In the blink of an eye, it has been with me and my family for seven years. In addition to daily commuting, I also contracted for occasional business trips and self-driving tours. If I say I have to buy an SUV. One is safety, and the other is highly passable. Some rough road conditions are no problem. The only thing worse than a car may be fuel consumption. However, my old R is a special case. It may be related to my daily maintenance. I have never changed the oil outside. Although the oil gauge is not very accurate, there is a definition. The maximum fuel consumption per 100 kilometers in urban areas will not exceed 8L, and the high-speed performance will only be 5-6L. With the current oil price, it is 70 cents in urban areas and 50 cents in high-speed. I feel that ordinary cars can’t beat my fuel consumption, so I have never considered the issue of consuming fuel. I have always heard how fuel-efficient this car is. This time I believed it.

Telephone reservations can be made directly into the workshop without queuing numbers

This angle is cool

Love cars should be raised

Lay out the working cloth and get ready

Open the engine cover, there are some small ashes inside

Careful master at work

Leave your car here with peace of mind

I asked when I looked at it and didn’t understand it, and the master explained patiently.

The master works very quickly.

Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it’s noon. The after-sales service store arranged lunch, which tasted good.
I used less cars this year, and I didn’t go on business trips. It took two months to get here for maintenance. I’m afraid it will affect the car if I don’t come here soon. The car was picked up in March 2016. It has been 7 years since then, with 148000 kilometers, 20,000 kilometers a year. In fact, there were relatively few runs in the first year and last year. On average, they were maintained twice a year, with an interval of about half a year. The consistent maintenance cycle is 10,000 kilometers or half a year. In fact, I should have come in late April this year, but I have been dragging it off. The 4s store called me again yesterday. I was afraid of too many people and specially arranged to come here earlier, so I arrived at the store just when the door opened at 8 o’clock. I didn’t go to the resting area in the store, but went to the workshop. Because there were few people, I took the opportunity of maintenance to see if there were any problems with the chassis of the car.
