hello guys and welcome back to a new video today I have a great great video
for you the Tesla Model 3 service interval the maintenance schedule I want
to show you and I want to speak about the service in a Tesla in electric cars
and particularly in this Tesla Model 3 and I want to tell you how much you have
to pay when you make the service when you have to go to Tesla to service the
car and what you will have to change there when you go and let's show you
directly here because you know that Tesla cars have this service book
directory right here on the screen and this was update a few weeks ago and I
want to tell you and I want to speak about what what maintenance cost its and
Tesla Model 3 so this is the 2020 model the brand new model Tesla Model 3 but it
doesn't matter because in all the Tesla Model 3 it is the same maintenance
schedule and service interval and Tesla here if you read right here those are
the recommended service so you don't have to go to the service every year
like you're going to BMW or Metis or every other car manufacturer when you
have to change the oil in the car in this car you don't have any oil you
don't have any parts that that needs to be change like an oil filter or stuff
like that and then let me show you here the brake fluid health check every two
years so you have to check the brake fluid health every two years replace
only if necessary if you drive your car very slowly to work and home and you
don't drive too much probably you don't have to change the brake fluid every two
years but it's recommended to be check you know on the older car my older car I
would be a three and was like and I never change the brake fluid every two
year maybe heavy four years or something like
that anyway you have to change okay there is say if the vehicle it's
used for towing replace the brake fluid every two years so it's recommended that
you replace the fluid if you're towing with the car the air conditioning
desiccate bag replacement every six year guys this is crazy
every six years you have to change the diskette pack the desiccant bag it's a
bag there inside somewhere where the all the bacteria it's staying is not the
filter itself the filter the cabin air filter it's something else so you don't
you don't have to to be confused by those words because the air filter it's
something else it's right here under under this somewhere they can change it
you can change it every not so easy you have to open all that stuff around here
and then you will find it there but it's something else it's a back there and I
recommended you to go to Tesla but you have to do that every six years so how
cool is that then cabin air filter replacement every
two years so this is the cabin air filter that you can change it in every
car in test life as well so every two years you have to change this then you
have to clean and lubricate the brake caliper every 20,000 kilometers if the
if in the area where the road are salted during the winter for example in Canada
because Tesla sell a lot of course in Canada then you have to there you have
to change it for sure and you have to clean and lubricate the the caliper the
brake caliper and you have to check it sometimes if everything is fine there
but I have to tell you guys if if you change your tires every every year for
example I keep my rims these iro rims all the time and I have winter tires I
have summer tires and when you go to change winter tires with the summer
tires the people there they will check out they can check out your brake they
can check out your brake calipers they can also clean it up in the same time so
you can do that almost two times a year if you change it like that if you
have your own rims that's another story then you have to check it yeah like they
say here every to twenty thousand depend on every every person then rotate tires
the same story as I told you before rotate tires every sixty two twenty
thousand kilometer or if treat deep difference its 1.5 millimeter or greater
so what it's say here this is the last point here it's say that you have to
check the tires the rotation of the tires if you take big bumps if you drive
sporty if you hit for example some some bumps on the road and stuff like that
the rims will begin to be not so so correctly aligned there and the wheel
will be like a little bit not on the on the on the right track not rotated
correctly and then but if you change the tires like I do every winter every
summer then the guys there that change the tires they will align with some
aluminum if you see my other video with changing tires you will understand how
they align the rims and the tires there and they they check that automatic so I
don't think this is something that you have to worry but you have to keep in
mind to check it out sometimes then let me go forward guys here and let me tell
you about the above interval are based on normal driving behaviour so the test
I tell you if you drive normally not something special like everyday 200
kilometers or sporty driving on the track or stuff like that then it's it's
just on the normal behavior so other than that you have to check a little bit
more often yeah so then it's a he additional the above list should not be
considered comprehended and does not include consumable parts such as wind
shield wipers brake pads and actually so yeah that that's something separate then
the damage or failure caused by maintenance or repairing
performance by non Tesla certificate technician are not covered by warranty
what that means that means if you go to other service not at Tesla and you
change the air filter the cabin filter sorry because this car doesn't have an
air filter you change the cabin filter inside here at the other person and
something break when you change it and something doesn't work well then the
Tesla doesn't have doesn't doesn't repair it on the warranty so you have to
pay for that but if they do it right if you change the air the cabin filter
right and nothing happens everything is fine this this is no problem so the
warranty it's there it's always there no matter when you go to service that's
another thing that you have to keep in mind the Tesla doesn't say you have to
go every year or every two year in service to us because you lost your
warranty or something like that you don't have to pay you have the warranty
no matter when you go there so that you have to keep in mind that's something
that never happened another car manufacturer from example BMW Matthias
Volvo you have to arrange over on the Land Rover everywhere you have to go
there if you don't go there you lost the warranty and then when you have to sell
the car will be a little bit more complicated and yeah anyway you have to
pay there a lot of money when you make the service on BMW and Mercedes you have
to keep this in mind let go forward let's go forward guys daily check so
they recommend you also daily check for the people that yeah they don't have
maybe they are new with cars or maybe they don't know so much then check the
battery charge level so for example here you have to charge the battery charge
ever checked the condition pressure of the tires then check that all exterior
light horn turn signal wipers washers check for any unexpected indicator light
or vehicle alert for example you have up here all the
alert or the problems that car have it it will appear up here or sometimes here
depend on what the error is and then check the operational break the parking
break if it's working check the seatbelt and look for a normal
fluid deposit underneath model-free that might indicate a leak is normal for
small pool of water to form then caused by the air conditioning system there's a
miracle total processing so it's really interesting so yeah you have to check
under the car if it's something leaking or some problem under the car you have
to check and look sometimes everyday they say but yeah you have to look it
look around the exterior of the model free of your car and immediately remove
the corrosive substance that's the bird the dropping three rigid doors put dead
insects industrial falls and etc so what to say Tesla here you have to wash your
car more often because this is a new thing here because the people have a lot
of problem with the paint so you have to check your your car paint and around the
car and you have to wash it to wash it all the time and you don't have to leave
all kind of debris on the car that can eat your paint and and make the rust in
time so anyway you have to check it then monthly check what you have to do here
on the monthly check you have to check the wing windscreen a windshield water
fluid the level and top up so you put the water on the windshield heads that's
normal while you do that check the air
conditioning system if operate correctly so anyway you check it because you have
to open it if it's something immediately notice you have to to check to to code
Tesla if you see that the fluid level on the own wheel tire we're sorry if the
tires are not not correctly aligned there for example when the geometry of
the tires is not right for you know sometimes you have to go to
make the geometry of the car and when the tires it's not right on the track it
would wear on the right on the on the left more than in the middle more than
on the other side and then you have to change the tires very fast and this is
not good you have to check it sometimes the tires then the fluid looked guys
this is I think this is the most important thing that on the first test
last on the Tesla Model S the first one I think until 2015 I think 2015 or 2016
all the Tesla cars have to be change the coolant in the battery you know the
battery has an interesting system that cool down the battery you know it's a
fluid that go around the battery and when it's hot it will cool the battery
and that fluid will have to be replaced it every four years but now now in the
Tesla Model 3 the new one you don't have to change that fluid never never have to
change that rate how cool is that how cool is that so let me show you it's
right here on the paper it's not something that I say fluid replacement
interval your battery coolant does not does not need to be replaced it for the
life of your vehicle under most circumstances it should be checked every
two years replaced if necessary so how cool is that no replacement for the
coolant in the battery so great great great news if the vehicle it's use it
for towing something that we see before you have to change the brake fluid every
two years any damage caused by opening the battery coolant reservoir it's
excluded from the warranty so guys never never open the battery coolant reservoir
don't open it because you never have to change that coolant anyway why would you
why would you do that high voltage safety here it's other cool
into things tough that tell you that the the
model feels designed to build for safety as a priority however be a word of the
precaution to protect yourself from the risk of injury in all system with high
voltage so here is say that you don't have to you don't have to to open the
voltage or put your hands there or for example if you have an accident
you don't have to touch any wires or high-voltage connectors and all that
stuff so avoid to be there so yeah I think that's all
here are some warnings for example always disconnect the charging cable
before working on the needs the the car then keep your hands and clothes away
from the cooling vents fans some fans operate even when the model
feeds up and then some fluid and battery acid : trach fluid windshield blah blah
blah using the vehicle I poison and you can poison you and stuff like that so
anyway I think this is really interesting the service on the Tesla
Model 3 it's very very cheap I think it's close to zero I think I have to go
to to check out this car in two years after two years I have to go down and
check out only if only if I need to change the brake fluid probably not
probably I will change it in four years I will change the cabin air filter for
sure in two years I don't know yeah in two years I will change it because
here the air in my area of the air it's really clean and it's not so much dust
so I change it in two years and of course I check my tires every years
because I have to change the winter tires with the summer tires and they
will check it they will rotate it they will check that so that's not a problem
and yeah I don't know I hope I don't have any error until then I have the car
two months now and I don't have any problem with the car any error one
time was a small error and I reset to the screen and then it was work
perfectly so I'm really happy with the car I'm happy that I don't have to pay
for any service and oil and all that stuff or I have to pay it change the
tires and things like that so guys I hope you enjoyed I hope you enjoyed my
my video with those information about the Tesla Model 3 service also I'm in
Europe so I think in USA and all over the world is the same same rules thank
you for watching by the way if you want to buy a Tesla
car or yeah Model 3 or a Tesla you can use my referral code you find it down
under the video and you will get 1500 kilometer for free super charging I
think this is a bonus for both of us and anyway thank you I hope it was helpful
for you guys check out my other videos I have plenty of other videos with cars
and also with model-free if you are interested in what kind of things I made
to my car accessories I change the tires what kind of winter tires I have and all
kind of stuff around the car so thank you for watching see you in the next
video and bye guys stay safe drive safe and see you soon
