to all toyota owners and/or soon to be owners please take note.

UMWT recommends air-cond servicing at every 30K. of course, when an owner missed the a/c svc at 30K, the svc advisor will strongly recommends performing it together during major service AT 40k/80k.
the final choice lies with the owner whether to proceed or not.

secondly, for new generation toyota cars (NCP93 vios, ACV40/41 camry, ZZE140 altis), they are filled with Super Long Life Coolant which is due for change at only 160,000km.

thirdly, for the same cars as above the automatic transmission fluid filled in are neither Type T IV nor D III but one very latest fluid which myself also dont know what to describe. the interval change? not 50K and not 80K but further more.

of course for older generation vios (NCP42), altis (ZZE121/122) and camry (ACV30/31) they are all using the standard long life coolant and ATF which are due for replacement at every 40K interval.

the cost of owning and maintaining toyota cars are getting lower and lower. of course again, minus the timing belt change too.

I think if the aircon working well & no foul smell, you can skip this one. I have only serviced the aircon once when the car was just over 3 years old. So there's no direr to change as well.
Also since the car is still new, you can also skip the GB filter. In fact, I still have not changed mine yet.

oic, thanks

seriously.... no offence to altis owner, but old altis nowadays looks really old especially after the new model in the market...... meanwhile, old camry still looks cool even with new camry on the road.....
it's not only bizman looks, but also a real taukeh look. So, my friend, Benson fits well into this.... smile_thumbup.gif
