Subsequently, the Iriz requires an oil change at every 10,000-km/6-month interval.

 

Service costs have increased a fair bit compared to before, as Proton has now included the N95 cabin filter as a replaceable item at every 20,000-km/12-month interval, as well as the inclusion of replacing the radiator coolant at every 30,000-km/18-month interval.

The most expensive service is at the 60,000-km/36-month mark, as that is a major service. Owners are required to replace their spark plugs, engine oil, air filter, and transmission fluid during this service. It costs RM 917.40 to service the Iriz CVT at this interval – considerably higher than before, as it now includes replacing the radiator coolant.

Over a 5-year/100,000-km period, owners of CVT variants of the Iriz need to pay RM 3,583 to service their car, while maintaining the manual variant is slightly cheaper, coming in at RM 3,220. It costs RM 532 more than before, due to the inclusion of the radiator coolant replacement and N95 cabin filter.

Seeing that the 1.6-litre variants now wear 16-inch tyres, it is worth noting that prices of this tyre size typically hover around the RM 200 mark. The 1.3-litre variant's 15-inch tyre prices typically hover around the RM 150 mark.
