Why Regular Maintenance Matters
Regular maintenance is the key to longevity and optimal performance for any vehicle, but it’s especially crucial for high-end, complex machines like Land Rovers.
With their sophisticated systems and off-roading capabilities, these vehicles require a specific maintenance regimen to prevent unnecessary wear and tear, and to safeguard your investment.
Oil and Filter Changes
At the heart of your Land Rover’s performance is its engine, and the lifeblood of that engine is its oil. Regular oil and filter changes are critical to ensuring your engine runs smoothly and efficiently. Old oil can become contaminated and less effective at lubricating the engine’s moving parts, leading to increased friction, overheating, and potential damage.
At GT Imports, we understand the unique requirements of Land Rover engines. We use high-quality oil and filters that meet the specific needs of your vehicle, ensuring optimal engine performance and longevity.
Brake System Checks
Your Land Rover’s braking system is a vital part of its safety mechanisms. Regular checks are necessary to ensure that your brake pads, rotors, and fluid are in good condition. As part of our Land Rover maintenance services, we provide comprehensive brake system checks, ensuring your vehicle is safe for both city driving and off-road adventures.
Battery Checks and Replacement
The battery in your Land Rover powers all its electrical systems, and over time, it can lose its capacity. Regular battery checks can prevent unexpected breakdowns, and our technicians at GT Imports are trained to spot signs of potential battery issues before they become a problem. If necessary, we can provide a high-quality replacement that matches the power needs of your Land Rover.
Coolant and Transmission Fluid Checks
Your Land Rover’s coolant system and transmission also require regular attention. Coolant prevents your engine from overheating, while transmission fluid lubricates the moving parts within your vehicle’s transmission. Our team at GT Imports will ensure these fluids are clean and at the appropriate levels, helping prevent costly repairs down the road.
Land Rover Specific Checks
Land Rover vehicles come with specific systems that set them apart from other vehicles, such as the Terrain Response system, air suspension, and differential locks. These systems require regular checks to ensure they’re functioning optimally and are ready to take on any adventure. At GT Imports, our technicians are familiar with these unique features and have the expertise to maintain them effectively.
Land Rover Scheduled Maintenance: The Why and the When
Land Rovers are a marvel of engineering, combining off-road capability with luxury and style. Like all high-performance machines, these vehicles demand regular care to maintain their optimal performance and longevity. Here’s a look at the key milestones in your Land Rover’s maintenance schedule and what each entails.
5,000-Mile Service
Every 5,000 miles, roughly six months for most drivers, we perform the following checks:
Engine oil and air filter – We assess the condition and, if necessary, change them to ensure your engine runs smoothly and efficiently.
Battery and cables – Regular checks can prevent unexpected breakdowns.
Chassis lubrication – Adequate lubrication prevents wear and tear on your vehicle’s frame, ensuring a smoother ride.
10,000-Mile Service
At the 10,000-mile mark, we add the following to your maintenance schedule:
Coolant levels – We check these to prevent your engine from overheating.
Transmission fluid levels – These are checked to ensure your transmission runs smoothly.
Steering and suspension – Regular checks and adjustments help maintain your Land Rover’s handling and ride comfort.
15,000-Mile Service
At 15,000 miles, your Land Rover maintenance steps up a gear. In addition to the previous checks, we inspect:
Drive belts
Exterior lighting
Exhaust system
Hood latch assembly and door checks
Parking brake and brake system
Power steering system fluid levels, cooling system fluid levels
On-board diagnostic system

We also replace the crankcase oil filter and cabin air filter at this point.
30,000-Mile Service
Once your Land Rover reaches 30,000 miles, the maintenance checks become even more comprehensive. At this stage, we include everything in the 15,000-mile service, as well as:
Brake line and hose inspection, brake system fluid change
Driveshaft inspection

60,000-Mile Service
At 60,000 miles, your Land Rover will have all the services listed under the 5,000, 10,000, 15,000, and 30,000-mile checks. From then on, we recommend bringing your vehicle in every 15,000 miles for the recommended inspections and replacements, including oil changes, brake inspections, and tire replacements.
