The following descriptions are provided to give you abetter understanding of the maintenance services thatshould be performed on your vehicle. The scheduledmaintenance log indicates at which time/mileageintervals each service should be performed. Please notethat many maintenance services should be performedonly by a qualified technician.

Active Height Control SystemInspect the lines, accumulators and pump and replacethe system fluid when specified. For recommendedfluid, refer to your Owner’s Manual.

Air Conditioner FilterReplace as directed at the maintenance interval youchoose. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for service details.

Axle Shaft BootsCheck the axle shaft boots and clamps for cracks, deterioration and damage. Replace any damaged parts and, if necessary, repack the grease. Re-torque the axle shaft flange bolts at the indicated intervals. A qualified technician should perform these operations.

Ball Joints and Dust CoversCheck the suspension and steering linkage ball jointsfor looseness and damage. Check all dust covers fordeterioration and damage. A qualified technicianshould perform these inspections.

For further information on maintenance services that you can perform yourself, see the“Service Procedures and Specifications” sectionof your Owner’s Manual.

Body InspectionVisually check for corrosion, scratches and other damage. Check outer body panels, inner panels of thehood and doors, and underneath the vehicle. Applytouch-up paint to any chips and scratches or havethem repaired by a qualified technician.

Brake FluidReplace using fluid type specified in your Owner’sManual. A qualified technician should perform thisoperation.

Brake Lines and HosesVisually inspect for proper installation. Check forchafing, cracks, deterioration and signs of leakage.Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts. A quali-fied technician should perform these operations.

Brake Linings/Drums and Brake Pads/RotorsCheck the parking brake linings (shoes) and drums for scoring, burning, fluid leakage, broken parts andexcessive wear. Check brake pads and rotors for exces-sive wear; check brake rotors for runout. Check brake

calipers for fluid leakage. A qualified technicianshould perform these inspections.

Charcoal CanisterCheck for internal damage and clogging. If necessary,clean with compressed air or replace. A qualified tech-nician should perform these operations.

Differential OilCheck for correct oil level and inspect each differentialcomponent for signs of leakage. If you discover anyleakage, have it repaired by a qualified technicianimmediately. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for fluidspecifications.

Drive BeltsInspect for cracks, excessive wear and oiliness. Checkthe belt tension and adjust if necessary. Replace thebelts if they are damaged.

Drive ShaftLubricate the drive shaft spiders and slide yokes withlithium-base chassis grease and the double cardan joint

Engine Air FilterCheck for damage, excessive wear and oiliness.Replace if necessary.

Engine CoolantDrain and flush the cooling system and refill withGenuine Toyota Super Long-Life Coolant or similarhigh-quality non-silicate, non-amine, non-borate ethylene-glycol coolant with long-life hybrid organicacid technology (i.e., a combination of low phosphatesand organic acids). A qualified technician should per-form this operation.

Note: Initial replacement is at 120 months/100,000miles. Replace every 60 months/50,000 miles there-after.

Engine Oil and Oil FilterReplace the oil filter and drain and refill the engine oilat specified intervals. For recommended oil grade andviscosity, refer to your Owner’s Manual.

Engine Valve ClearanceInspect for excessive lifter noise and engine vibrationand adjust if necessary. A qualified technician shouldperform this operation.

Exhaust Pipes and MountingsVisually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hang-ers for cracks, deterioration and damage. Start theengine and listen carefully for any exhaust gas leakage.Tighten connections or replace parts as necessary.

Fuel Lines and Connections, Fuel Tank Band andFuel Tank Vapor Vent System HosesVisually inspect for corrosion, damage, cracks andloose or leaking connections. Tighten connections orreplace parts as necessary.

Rack and Pinion AssemblyInspect the rack and pinion assembly for signs of leak-age, damage and loose electrical connections. Tightenconnections and if you discover any leakage or dam-age, have it repaired immediately by a qualified tech-nician.

Road TestWhile driving the vehicle, check for proper operationof engine, transmission, brakes and steering. Alsocheck for abnormal noise or vibration from any part of the vehicle.

Spark PlugsInstall new plugs of the same type as originallyequipped. Refer to your Owner’s Manual. A qualifiedtechnician should perform this operation.

Steering Linkage and BootsWith the vehicle stopped, check for excessive freeplayin the steering wheel. Inspect the linkage for bendingand damage and the dust boots for deterioration,cracks and damage. Replace any damaged parts. Aqualified technician should perform these operations.

Timing BeltReplace every 108 months or 90,000 miles. A qualifiedtechnician should perform this operation.

Tire RotationTires should be rotated according to the instructions in your Owner’s Manual. When rotating tires, checkpressure and check for damage and uneven wear. Ifthe spare is not rotated, check the condition and pres-sure of the spare.
