Toyota RAV4 Service Intervals

How Often Should I Service My Toyota RAV4?

Always take care of the things you want to keep. If you'd like to keep your state-of-the-art RAV4 model, you'll need to keep up with your Toyota RAV4 maintenance schedule. Routine maintenance inspects and protects your RAV4 against the rigors of daily life on the road. Your service manual is the holy grail of information on your specific trim's Toyota RAV4 service intervals, but this brief review of intervals can get you started. A general idea of the road ahead is a clear view of your RAV4's lifespan.

15,000-Mile Service

Inspections are crucial at this stage. Around 15,000 miles, our certified auto technicians will take a look at your RAV4's fluid levels and hoses, brake pads, and tires. Depending on your tire's brand, you might want a tire rotation around this mileage. This will keep your tires wearing evenly and give your RAV4 a new, more exciting sprint.

30,000-Mile Service

Your engine's coolant should be checked for levels and purity at 30,000 miles. If the coolant is low or off, then your servicemen will replace it with fresh coolant. The importance of this is that it will keep your engine from becoming damaged over time. An engine without quality coolant is going to overheat and eventually wear out too soon. Don't let that happen you your RAV4. Other notable services at this juncture include:

• A new air filter
• Fuel filter
• Tires (if they are due according to your tire manual or trim manual)

60,000-Mile Service

Our service personnel will carefully examine your RAV4's components at 60,000 miles. If your model runs with differential fluid, it will likely need new fluid at this time. You'll possibly need new automatic transmission fluid and valve adjustments at this time. Brake pads wear out according to the amount of braking you do during your RAV4's life so that they can be visually inspected at almost any time. This stage is a frequent time for replacement, especially on a RAV4 trim that's been used for heavy off-roading.

90,000-Mile Service

The timing belt, spark plugs, and the drive belt is all replacement game. Ninety thousand miles is a real accomplishment for your RAV4. Our team can make sure it rolls on strong for another 90,000.
