1983 Chevrolet Citation Maintenance Schedule

Take care of your Chevrolet Citation and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Citation. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Citation maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1983 Chevrolet Citation!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Chevrolet, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Citation running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 1983 Chevrolet Citation problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1983 Chevrolet Citation and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Citation's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1983 Chevrolet Citation. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Citation may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Chevrolet Citation battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Chevrolet Citation won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1983 Chevrolet Citation engine. To learn how often Chevrolet recommends you have the oil changed in your 1983 Citation, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1983 Chevrolet Citation.

Routine upkeep for your Chevrolet Citation suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions.

To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Chevrolet Citation's steering and suspension system.
