Take care of your Chevrolet Express 3500 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 Express 3500. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Express 3500 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2008 Chevrolet Express 3500!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Chevrolet, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include 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 Express 3500 running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and prevent common 2008 Chevrolet Express 3500 problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2008 Chevrolet Express 3500 and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Express 3500's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2008 Chevrolet Express 3500? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Express 3500 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Chevrolet Express 3500 battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Express 3500 stranded. Your Chevrolet Express 3500 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2008 Chevrolet Express 3500 engine. See Chevrolet's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2008 Express 3500 in the chart at the top 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.
