Scion Maintenance & Repair Support 4
›› Collision Repair Parts
You don’t like to think about getting in a wreck, but if it happens, there
are a few things you should know. Some repair shops and insurance
companies may suggest using imitation or used salvage parts to save
money. However, these parts don’t meet Scion’s high standards for
quality, fit and corrosion resistance. Plus, imitation and used salvage
parts are not covered by any Scion warranty.
To protect your vehicle’s appearance, performance and safety, Scion
recommends using only Scion Authorized Parts for collision repairs.
It is especially important to use Scion Authorized Parts for the repair
of Supplemental Restraint Systems (also known as air bags).
Scion believes you have the right to choose the types of parts used
in the repair of your vehicle. That’s why Scion supports full disclosure
by repair shops and insurance companies regarding parts used for
collision repairs. The following information is provided to help you
understand the different types of parts that could be used to repair
your vehicle.
Types of Collision Repair Parts
“Collision repair parts” or “replacement crash parts” are the parts typ-
ically replaced during the repair of a vehicle that has been damaged in
a collision. These parts include exterior sheet metal such as fenders,
hoods, doors and related components, as well as plastic components
such as bumper covers and lamp assemblies. These are the basic
types of collision repair parts:
New original-equipment manufacturer (OEM): Parts that are made
by the vehicle manufacturer or one of its licensees and distributed
through its normal channels. These parts keep the vehicle manufac-
turer’s warranty coverage intact.
Aftermarket or imitation: Parts that are made by companies other
than the vehicle manufacturer or its licensees.

Determining the Proper Maintenance Interval
Depending on your circumstances, you should obtain maintenance for
your Scion every 5,000 miles or every 7,500 miles. Follow these guide-
lines to determine which interval to use.
5,000-Mile Intervals
Use 5,000-mile intervals if you primarily operate your vehicle under
any of the following conditions:
›Driving on unpaved or dusty roads.
›Using a car-top carrier.
›Repeated trips of less than five miles in temperatures
below freezing.
7,500-Mile Intervals
Use 7,500-mile intervals if you primarily operate your vehicle under
conditions other than those listed above.
Note: If you drive your vehicle under any of the special operating con-
ditions noted on the following page, you may need to perform specific
services at 5,000-mile intervals. See the 5,000-mile maintenance
charts for details.
Special Operating Conditions
In addition to standard maintenance items for both 5,000-mile and
7,500-mile intervals, the scheduled maintenance log indicates services
that should be performed on vehicles that are driven under especially
demanding conditions. Specific conditions require specific services, as
indicated on the following page. The scheduled maintenance log indi-
cates at which mileage/time intervals each service should be performed.
You should perform these additional maintenance services if you
drive primarily under any of the conditions noted. If you drive only
occasionally under these conditions, it is not necessary to perform
the additional services.

Scheduled Maintenance Log 16
›› Following the Charts
The scheduled maintenance log identifies the maintenance required
at each mileage interval and corresponding time interval based on
mileage of 1,250 miles per month. If you drive more than 1,250 miles
per month, you should obtain maintenance at the indicated mileage
interval rather than the indicated time interval.
If you choose 5,000-mile intervals, follow the instructions below the
plum-colored bars, such as this one:
5,000 Miles or 4 Months
If you choose 7,500-mile intervals, follow the instructions below the
blue bars, such as this one:
7,500 Miles or 6 Months
At 15,000-mile increments, the 5,000-mile and 7,500-mile intervals
coincide. Therefore, the colored bars appear together, as in this example:
15,000 Miles or 12 Months
15,000 Miles or 12 Months
Should you be getting maintenance for your Scion every 5,000 miles
or every 7,500 miles? See “Determining the Proper Maintenance
Interval” on page 10.

To help you get started with regular maintenance, Scion provides your
vehicle’s first three oil changes on a complimentary basis. While they
don’t have to be your initial three oil changes, the oil changes must be
obtained within 3 years or 36,000 miles (whichever occurs first) of your
vehicle’s original in-service date. If you bought your Scion used and the
previous owner did not use all three oil changes, you are entitled to the
remaining complimentary oil changes if your car is still within 3 years
or 36,000 miles of its original in-service date.
To obtain a complimentary oil change, call a Scion dealership or partici-
pating Toyota dealership to make an appointment. The dealership will
verify that the service was performed by completing one of the boxes
on the inside back cover of this booklet.
Complimentary oil changes include change of engine oil and oil filter
only. You are responsible for the cost of any other services performed
at the time of your complimentary oil changes, including other mainte-
nance services listed in the scheduled maintenance log.
