Give me detailed Instructions I can follow to maintain it, and to keep it operational efficiency, like regular consumption checkup, like oils and liquids changes, and any additional advice

- Why the engine oil regularly decreased approximately 1-2 liters each oil changing round, and how to deal with this?

- I haven’t never changed the is the Transmission and Differential Fluids, what is the best practice to change it as well as Fuel Filter?

- what are the Power Steering Fluid and Suspension and Steering and how you deal with them?

- any additional advice?

We only deal with one problem at a time, please make new threads for individual systems. We will handle the oil consumption question on this thread. 1 to 2 liters low between oil changes is normal for an engine that has 200k on it. I would try the next heavier oil weight in the next oil change which can help. Also, check for engine oil leaks, this guide can help:

Use a flashlight to inspect, please upload pictures or videos in your response so I can help if any leaks are found.
