concentrations of soot in the air from industry and
from diesel-powered vehicles, replace every 15,000

Inspect drive belt
Replace transmission fluid Driving in mountainous areas at very low vehicle
speeds results in higher transmission temperatures.
This requires transmission fluid changes more

conditions, have the transmission fluid changed at
60,000 miles (100,000 km), then every 30,000 miles
