there are 2 service schedules regular and severe. You should use the severe schedule if you drive frequently in one or more of these conditions.

- Driving on dusty, rough, muddy or salt-spread roads
- Towing or police, taxi or commercial operation
- Extensive idling and /or low speed operation
- Repeated short-trip operation at freezing temperatures (engine not thoroughly warmed up)
- Extended use of brakes while driving
- Driving in sandy areas
- More than 50 % operation in heavy city traffic during hot weather above 90 °F (32 °C)

I replaced my 2011 ES with the OEM recommended NGK iridium plugs (1312) at roughly 105,000 miles. My mechanic recommended not to mess with CVT fluid replacement because the CVTs are very finicky.
