a) Or every two years, whichever comes first. More frequent replacement may be needed if the vehicle is driven in areas with heavy traffic, areas with poor air quality, or areas with high dust levels.
Replacement may also be needed if there is a reduction in air flow, excessive window fogging, or odors.
b) Check all fuel and vapor lines and hoses for proper hook-up, routing, and condition. Check that the purge valve, if the vehicle has one, works properly. Replace as needed.

d) Do not directly power wash the transfer case output seals. High pressure water can overcome the seals and contaminate the transfer case fluid. Contaminated fluid will decrease the life of the transfer case and should be replaced.
e) Or every five years, whichever comes first. See Cooling System.
f) Or every 10 years, whichever comes first. Inspect for fraying, excessive cracking, or damage; replace, if needed.
