Coolants maintenance 2016 IS200T Fsport
 
Hi guys, just got my new 2016 IS 200T Fsport last week. So besides the Oil Change, what other coolants do I need maintain before my first 5000mi Oil change? Or all the coolants should be fine until the first Oil change and they will refill them? thx

So basically I don't have to touch any of the coolants, only the Oil Change and that's it?

I think you're mixing up fluids with coolant. The only coolant in the car is the engine coolant and needs to be replaced at 100k miles. Brake fluid change is recommended at 30k I believe. Check the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual for all the details. ;)

So besides the brake fluids, are there any other fluids?

There is the differential oil but I really urge you to check your owner's manual maintenance schedule for whether it says to replace that or not. It looks like the owner manual of NA spec has no mention of that, but mine does say to replace it every 40,000 km (my car is GCC spec).

You don't need to worry about fluids other than engine oil for a long time.

Brake fluid. 30k or 3 years.
oil. 10k or 1 year
Transmission. Usually i don't check until 50k, but should last much longer.
Power Steering fluid. 75k-100k depending on driving condition. Check Manual.
coolant.
