Selecting the Right Schedule
First you will need to decide which of the
two schedules is right for your vehicle. Here is
how to decide which schedule to follow:
Short Trip/City Denition
Follow the Short Trip/City Scheduled Maintenance if
any one of these conditions is true for your vehicle:
•Most trips are less than 5 miles (8 km).
This is particularly important when outside
temperatures are below freezing.
•Most trips include extensive idling, such as
frequent driving in stop-and-go traffic.
•If the vehicle is used for delivery service,
police, taxi, or other commercial application.
One of the reasons you should follow this schedule
if you operate your vehicle under any of these
conditions is that these conditions cause engine oil
to break down sooner.
Short Trip/City Intervals
Every 3,000 Miles (5 000 km):Engine Oil and
Filter Change (or 3 months, whichever occurs first).
Every 6,000 Miles (10 000 km):Tire Rotation.Every 15,000 Miles (25 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Inspection. Passenger Compartment
Air Filter Replacement. Drive Belt(s) Inspection.
Every 30,000 Miles (50 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Replacement. Spark Plug
Replacement. EVAP System Service. PCV System
Service. Timing Belt Inspection. Brake/Clutch Fluid
Change (or 24 months, whichever occurs first).
Every 42,000 Miles (70 000 km):Engine Oil Pan
Drain Plug Washer Replacement.
Every 60,000 Miles (100 000 km):Spark Plug
Wire Replacement. Timing Belt Replacement.
EVAP System Solenoid Valve Replacement.
Every 90,000 Miles (150 000 km):Fuel Filter
Replacement.
Every 150,000 Miles (240 000 km):Cooling
System Service.
These intervals only summarize maintenance
services. Be sure to follow the complete scheduled
maintenance on the following pages.
375

Long Trip/Highway Denition
Follow this scheduled maintenanceonlyif none of
the conditions from the Short Trip/City Scheduled
Maintenance are true. Do not use this schedule
if the vehicle is driven in a dusty area or used off
paved roads. Use the Short Trip/City schedule
for these conditions.
Driving a vehicle with a fully warmed engine under
highway conditions will cause engine oil to break
down slower.
Long Trip/Highway Intervals
Every 7,500 Miles (12 500 km):Engine Oil and
Filter Change (or every 12 months, whichever
occurs first). Tire Rotation.
Every 15,000 Miles (25 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Inspection. Passenger Compartment
Air Filter Replacement. Drive Belt(s) Inspection.
Every 30,000 Miles (50 000 km):Engine Air
Cleaner Filter Replacement. Spark Plug
Replacement. EVAP System Service. PCV System
Service. Timing Belt Inspection. Brake/Clutch Fluid
Change (or 24 months, whichever occurs first).Every 60,000 Miles (100 000 km):Spark Plug
Wire Replacement. Timing Belt Replacement.
EVAP System Solenoid Valve Replacement.
Every 90,000 Miles (150 000 km):Fuel Filter
Replacement. Engine Oil Pan Drain Plug Washer
Replacement.
Every 150,000 Miles (240 000 km):Cooling
System Service.
These intervals only summarize maintenance
services. Be sure to follow the complete scheduled
maintenance on the following pages.Short Trip/City Scheduled
Maintenance
The services shown in this schedule up to
100,000 miles (166 000 km) should be repeated
after 100,000 miles (166 000 km) at the same
intervals for the life of this vehicle. The services
shown at 150,000 miles (240 000 km) should be
repeated at the same interval after 150,000 miles
(240 000 km) for the life of this vehicle.
