Your Guide to 1994 Buick Skylark Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Buick Skylark, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Skylark could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Skylark maintenance. Just follow your 1994 Buick Skylark maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Buick themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Skylark perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1994 Buick Skylark problems in the future.

Overview of Essential Buick Skylark Maintenance Needs

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1994 Buick Skylark and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Skylark. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 1994 Buick Skylark be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Buick Skylark battery, and so can frequent short drives. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Skylark) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Buick Skylark could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1994 Buick Skylark engine. See Buick's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1994 Skylark in the chart at the top of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1994 Buick Skylark.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Buick Skylark can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Buick Skylark suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Buick Skylark's steering system with regular maintenance.

Without routine Buick Skylark maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Buick Skylark’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Buick Skylark? We got it. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We’re on it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your one-stop shop for 1994 Buick Skylark maintenance and repairs.

We can help you keep your vehicle (and your life!) running smoothly. Many of our locations have weekend and evening hours for your convenience.

Questions About 1994 Buick Skylark Maintenance

Take an active role in maintaining your 1994 Buick Skylark. Get answers to common Buick Skylark maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Buick Skylark? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When should I switch my Buick Skylark to high mileage oil? Do you have more than 75,000 miles on your Buick Skylark? If so, request to switch to high mileage oil at your next oil change. This type of oil is specially formulated to keep aging engine parts in the best possible condition.
  •  Why are my Buick dashboard lights on? Don't ignore dashboard warning lights! Bring your Buick Skylark in for a diagnostic code scan as soon as a dashboard warning light flashes on, whether it's your check engine or battery light. Dashboard lights alert you to trouble under the hood.
