Tesla Model 3 service schedule

Maintenance items owners encounter

• Cabin air filter - replaced at a published interval
• Brake fluid - health check, replaced if the check requires it
• Brake calipers - clean and lubricate where winter road salt is used
• Tyres - rotate and balance regularly; replace on condition
• Air conditioning desiccant bag - at a model-specific interval

Tesla's published Model 3 maintenance page is the authoritative source and changes over time. Confirm intervals for your model year there.

Condition-based, not calendar-based

Because most Model 3 wear is condition-based, mileage and driving style matter more than the calendar. Heavy urban use wears tyres faster; light, mostly-regenerative use makes brake corrosion the thing to watch.

MOT and the Model 3

First MOT at three years from registration, then annually. Any DVSA-authorised test station can test it - the emissions section does not apply.
