Perodua Myvi service: key facts

Oil service every 10,000 miles or 1 year
1 generation from 2006 to 2017
6 tracked service items across routine, major, and periodic schedules

Routine service items

These are the items covered in a standard service. Most garages include oil, oil filter and a basic inspection. The rest are typically checked or replaced on a schedule.

Service item	Interval	Typical cost
Engine oil and filter Small capacity engines benefit from frequent oil changes. Use 5W-30 semi-synthetic. Check level monthly as small sumps show oil loss quickly. G1	10,000 miles or 1 year	£45–£70
Air filter Replace more frequently in dusty conditions. Blocked filter reduces performance on small engines. G1	20,000 miles or 2 years	£15–£25
Cabin pollen filter Located behind glove box. Replace annually or when air conditioning performance drops. G1	20,000 miles or 1 year	£25–£40

Periodic maintenance

Items that don't need doing at every service but should be on your radar at the right mileage or age.

Service item	Interval	Typical cost
Spark plugs Use specified heat range for VVT-i engines. Replace all four together. Check leads at same time. G1	40,000 miles or 4 years	£60–£90
Brake fluid Two year interval regardless of mileage. Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time. Essential for braking safety. G1	2 years	£35–£55
Coolant flush Use Toyota-specification long-life coolant. Flush prevents corrosion in aluminium engines. G1	60,000 miles or 5 years	£60–£85
