First Service

[GBgraham]

I go in for my first service next week, do any of you guy's know if they do software updates as a norm and do they remove the wheels for inspection or just shine a torch in and do a visual? 

Also if any one knows if there is anything else I should be asking for?

They do not normally remove the wheels at the first service. Only if they spot anything unusual in the visual inspection. You need to ask them about software updates.

Hi Graham,Toyota usually includes software updates during routine services, especially for the infotainment system or any of the car's electronics. It’s definitely worth asking if they will check for updates when you take it in. They typically do a visual inspection of the wheels and brakes and probably won’t take the wheels off unless they notice something wrong, but they will use a light to check for brake wear or any other issues. If you’re concerned, just ask if they’ll be checking things like the brake pads and discs, even though it’s early on. Also, confirm if they will top up all the fluids oil, coolant, brake fluid, etc.

Toyota usually recommends rotating the tyres for even wear, so you might want to check if that’s included. It could also be worth asking if they will check the Battery health, just in case. They will probably handle most of this anyway, but it doesn’t hurt to ask, and it will give you peace of mind.😀
