As an American, your Toyota RAV4 should undergo regular maintenance every 5,000-7,500 miles or 6-12 months, including synthetic oil and filter changes, along with brake inspections. Additionally, tire rotation and fluid checks are part of the routine maintenance. Brake pads might need replacement around 50,000 miles, but inspections are usually standard during maintenance visits. At around 45,500 miles, a brake fluid flush and engine air filter replacement are typically done. Spark plugs should be replaced every 97,500 miles, particularly if you notice hesitating, misfires, or stalling while driving. When hitting the 150,000-mile mark, plan for a cooling system and radiator flush, and have the engine accessory drive belts examined as well since the coolant fluids have likely reached the end of their lifespan after such extensive mileage.
The recommended maintenance interval for the 2015 Toyota RAV4 is every 10,000 miles.
