Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 3,750 miles or 3 months, but consult manual for specific synthetic oil recommendations and severe driving conditions.
Air Filter Replacement:
Every 30,000 miles or as needed based on visual inspection.
Spark Plug Replacement:
Refer to manual; typically around 60,000-100,000 miles depending on plug type (e.g., iridium).
Engine Oil Spec:
Refer to manual; typically API SN or higher, SAE 5W-30 or 0W-20 for most gasoline engines.
