Maintenance and maintenance regulations for Toyota Rav4 (Rav4)

Those. Toyota Rav 4 service
The crossover from the famous automobile manufacturer Toyota called Rav 4 was modernized in 2015, after which it earned high marks from experts. This is a versatile family car that is suitable for driving around the city, on the highway and even off-road. Enhanced traction and stability control further enhance your safety behind the wheel, making driving as comfortable as possible.

Toyota Rav 4 maintenance is carried out at least once every 12 months or 10,000 kilometers. The frequency of trips to the car service depends on what comes first. Ignoring maintenance is a direct route to a car repair shop. All Japanese crossovers require careful operation and quickly break down if you do not change the oil or fill in with cheap gasoline. It doesn’t matter that the vehicle has an independent suspension and huge wheels - the wear of components during operation in the Russian Federation is accelerated due to the poor quality of the road surface and severe frosts.

It is much more profitable to undergo a Toyota Rav 4 maintenance in Moscow and conduct a full system scan to identify problems than to pay for repairs. Just imagine how much you will spend on restoration of the chassis or internal combustion engine. The price tag can reach 200-300 thousand rubles. It is much preferable to take good care of your “iron horse” and identify hidden faults in the early stages.

Toyota RAV4 scheduled maintenance

Scheduled maintenance is a set of preventive and repair measures carried out to extend the service life of the vehicle.
Recommended maintenance periods are specified in the operating instructions for the vehicle of the corresponding brand. Depending on the mileage, operating conditions of the equipment and the year of its manufacture, the frequency of service activities may be changed. Difficult operating conditions contribute to accelerated wear of parts and mechanisms. In this case, maintenance is performed ahead of schedule. In this case, the car owner must take into account the prevailing duration of trips, the presence of traffic jams and other reasons that involve long-term idleness of the car, temperature changes and other natural factors that complicate the operation of TOYOTA equipment.

Toyota RAV4 car maintenance calculator from Toyota Taganka

The cost of maintenance is determined individually, as it depends on:

car mileage;
work that needs to be carried out as part of maintenance;
cost of consumables;
prices of additional services.

We invite you to calculate the cost of maintenance for your Toyota RAV4 using our online calculator. By going to the appropriate section of our website, select the “RAV4” model, the mileage of your copy and the work that you would like to order, and you will see the cost of each of them.

What is needed for maintenance of RAV4

Standard RAV4 maintenance will require:

5W-40 engine oil in a volume of 4 l (filled with 3.9 level);
oil filter;
washer for sealing the drain plug;
air and cabin filters.

You do not need to know the article numbers of these products for maintenance, since we have the necessary supply of consumables for any generation of RAV4. The technician will drain the used technical fluid, install new filters, tighten the plug tightly and fill in new oil. The on-board computer will need to reset the counter to count down the interval until the next maintenance.

In addition to routine maintenance, depending on the mileage, it is necessary to perform additional actions to care for the main components of the car. For example, Toyota RAV4 models with all-wheel drive require an oil change in the transfer case and gearbox after 40,000 km. Cars with manual transmission use a wet clutch, in which the fluid must be replaced when reaching 40 thousand km. At the same interval, the brake fluid is changed to prevent it from boiling.

After 80 thousand mileage, the fuel filter must be replaced, otherwise gasoline will flow worse, which will affect traction. At 100,000 km, the spark plugs are changed. Our technicians will perform other procedures prescribed by the manufacturer, and will also check the brake pads, discs, automatic transmission oil, and lubricate the calipers. To register for maintenance, just fill out the form.
