Maintenance
Regular systematic maintenance is the key to
ensuring the continued reliability and efficiency
of your vehicle.
In addition to the routine services and
inspections referred to previously, a number of
simple checks must be carried out more
frequently. You can carry out these checks
yourself and advice is given on the pages that
follow.
Maintenance is the owner's responsibility and
you must ensure that owner maintenance
operations, oil services, inspections and brake
fluid and coolant changes are carried out when
required and according to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Any significant or sudden drop in fluid levels,
or uneven tire wear, should be reported to a
retailer without delay.
Daily checks
The routine maintenance requirements for your
vehicle are shown in the Passport to Service
book. Most of this necessary workshop
maintenance requires specialised knowledge
and equipment, and should preferably be
entrusted to a Land Rover retailer.
•
Operation of lights, horn, direction
indicators, wipers, washers and warning
lights.
•
•
Operation of seat belts and brakes.
Look for fluid deposits underneath the
vehicle that might indicate a leak
(condensation drips from the air
conditioning are normal).
Passport to Service
The Passport to Service book includes a
Service Record section, which enables a record
to be kept of all the oil services and inspections
that are carried out on the vehicle. This section
of the book also provides a facility for the
retailer to record brake fluid changes, as well as
the fitting of replacement airbag modules.
Weekly checks
•
Engine oil level.
NOTE: The engine oil level should be
checked more frequently if the vehicle is
driven for prolonged periods at high speeds.
•
•
•
•
•
Brake fluid level.
Ensure your retailer signs and stamps the book
after each oil service and inspection.
Power steering fluid level.
Windshield washer fluid level.
Tire pressures and condition.
Operate air conditioning.
Brake fluid/component replacement
Brake fluid must be completely renewed every
3
years, regardless of distance travelled.
All fluid specifications and capacities are shown
in ‘LUBRICANTS AND FLUIDS’, page 271.
Coolant replacement
The engine coolant (anti-freeze and water
solution) needs to be replaced every 4 years,
regardless of distance travelled. Your retailer
will replace the coolant at the scheduled oil
service.
