Rafiki's Service & Maintenance

The maintenance of a vehicle is key to keep it in good condition and as long as possible. But when you go overlanding for a long period of time, its maintenance is essential and a matter of safety. Even though I check and do basic oil & filter change, I try to bring Rafiki to a garage every 10k (or so).
