Official Cordia Maintenance Schedule:

The following maintenance intervals are based on the assumption that the vehicle owner will be doing the maintenance or service work, as opposed to having a dealer service department do the work. Although the time/mileage intervals are loosely based on factory recommendations, most have been shortened to ensure, for example, that such items as filters, lubricants and fluids are checked/changed at intervals that promote maximum engine/driveline service life. Also, subject to the preference of the individual owner interested in keeping his or her old vehicle in peak conditions at all times, and with the vehicles ultimate resale in mind, many of the maintenance procedures may be performed more often than recommended in the following schedule. Such owner initiative is encouraged.


Every 400km or weekly, whichever comes first
Check the engine oil level.
Check the engine coolant level.
Check the windshield washer level.
Check the water (electrolyte) in the battery.
Check the brake fluid level.
Check the tyres and tyre pressure.

Every 5,600km or 3 months, whichever comes first
All items listed above plus...
Check the power steering fluid level.

Check/adjust the clutch pedal free-play (cable-operated models).

Every 48,000km or 24 months, whichever comes first

Every 80,000km or 40 months, whichever comes first
Inspect the evaporative emissions control system and replace the canister.
Check/adjust the ignition timing.
Check/replace the PCV valve.

Every 96,000km or 48 months, whichever comes first

Replace the turbocharger air intake and oil hoses.

*This item is affected by "severe" operating conditions as described below. If the vehicle in question is operated under "severe" conditions, perform all maintenance indicated with an asterisk (*) at 12,000km/6 month intervals. Consider the conditions "severe" if most driving is done...
In dusty areas.
When towing a trailer.
At low speeds or with extended periods of engine idling.
When outside temperatures remain below freezing and most trips are less than four miles.

** If most driving is done under one or more of the following conditions, change the automatic transmission fluid every 24,000km:
In heavy city traffic where the outside temperature regularly reaches 90-degrees F (32-degrees C) or higher.
In hilly or mountainous terrain.

The distributors on the 4g62t (probably 4g63t as well) have a small oil seal that runs on the shaft inside the dizzy. the oil leak this seal causes usually drips off the clip on the underside of the dizzy cap.
part number for this seal is - AC0409E. It is a NOK brand seal and cost me $5.
The distributor needs to be pulled apart completely to do the job. The bearing that is inside the dizzy is a - 6201 sealed on both sides.

Rear brake shoes are BS1592.(bendix number)

For a reasonably cheap brake pad that is extremely good, the Lucas brand of pad (owned by TRW) can handle around 650 degrees celcius continuous working temperature before losing it friction coefficient (fading) but still works well when cold. Only drawback is that they are dusty.(think wheels on euro cars).
