1986 Chevrolet G10 Maintenance

You want your Chevrolet G10 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your G10 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get G10 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 1986 Chevrolet G10 maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Chevrolet themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your G10 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1986 Chevrolet G10 problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1986 Chevrolet G10 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your G10. 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.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1986 Chevrolet G10. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your G10 may need a replacement battery sooner. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Chevrolet G10 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your G10 stranded. Your Chevrolet G10 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
