What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 1987 Chevrolet G10?

What to Know About 1987 Chevrolet G10 Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Chevrolet G10 to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your G10 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine G10 maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1987 Chevrolet G10!

Chevrolet knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. 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. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your G10 perform better, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1987 Chevrolet G10 problems later.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Chevrolet G10 Running Newer, Longer

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1987 Chevrolet G10 for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your G10’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1987 Chevrolet G10? In general, car batteries only last 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. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. 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 G10 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 1987 Chevrolet G10's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1987 G10. 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. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1987 Chevrolet G10? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Chevrolet G10 can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, perform Chevrolet G10 suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Chevrolet G10's steering and suspension system.

Without routine Chevrolet G10 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. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Chevrolet G10 cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Chevrolet G10? We’ve got your back. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We'll fix it.

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

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Chevrolet G10? You know your Chevrolet G10 better than anyone else, so you’ll know if something doesn’t feel right while driving.

  • When should I switch my Chevrolet G10 to high mileage oil? If your Chevrolet G10 has ticked past 75,000 miles, consider switching to high mileage oil at your next oil change to give your engine what it needs to go another 75,000 (or more!). High mileage oil: make it a high priority!
