Scheduled Maintenance Log
Exhaust Pipes and Mountings
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks,
deterioration and damage. Start the
engine and listen carefully for any
exhaust leakage. Tighten connections
and replace parts as necessary.
Fuel Lines and Connections, Fuel
Tank Band and Fuel Tank Vapor
Vent System Hoses
Visually inspect for corrosion,
damage, cracks, and loose or leaking
connections. Tighten connections
and replace parts as necessary.
Fuel Tank Cap Gasket
Visually inspect for cracks, deterio-
ration and damage and replace
if necessary.
Intercooler Coolant
When inspecting, visually check the
level of the intercooler coolant on
the see-through reservoir. Add coolant
as necessary. When replacing, drain
the cooling system and refill with
coolant. Always use Genuine Toyota
Super Long-Life Coolant or similar
high-quality non-silicate, non-amine,
non-nitrate, non-borate ethyleneglycol
coolant with long-life hybrid organic
acid technology (i.e., a combination
of low phosphates and organic acids).
A qualified technician should perform
these operations.
Note: Initial replacement of
intercooler coolant is at
120 months/100,000 miles.
Replace every 60 months/50,000
miles thereafter.
Nuts and Bolts on Chassis
Check that tightness of the seat-
mounting bolts and front/rear
suspension-member retaining bolts
matches torque measurements
specified in the Repair Manual.
Rack-and-Pinion Assembly
Inspect the rack-and-pinion assembly
for signs of leakage, damage and
loose electrical connections. Tighten
connections and if you discover any
leakage or damage, have it repaired
immediately by a qualified technician.
Road Test
While driving the vehicle, check for
proper operation of engine, transmis-
sion, brakes and steering. Also check
the parking brake, and check for
abnormal noise or vibration from
any part of the vehicle.
Spark Plugs
Replace at specified interval. Install
new plugs of the same type as originally
equipped (see your Owner’s Manual).
A qualified technician should perform
this operation.
