I just bought a used Nissan Caravan Van from Japan. It is fitted with VG30 E engine. I want to know the maintenance schedules for this engine concerning the following;
-oil/filter change
-air filter change
-timing chain change
-coolant change
- ATF change
-drive belts
And any other items you can recommend so as to maintain the durability and efficiency of this engine.

This vehicle has done only 96000km.

Oil and filter every 5,000Km's
Air filter check and clean every service and replaced after 20,000Km's or as required if needed
There is no specific service for a timing chain, normally life of engine or until it becomes noisy
Coolant every 12 Months
Transmission every 24Months or annually if towing or heavy traffic use every day
Drive belts check every service and replace as required by checking for any cracking.
