Scheduled Maintenance for Your 1985 Chevrolet Impala

What is the maintenance schedule for the 1985 Chevrolet Impala?

Here’s Why 1985 Chevrolet Impala Scheduled Maintenance Matters

You want your Chevrolet Impala to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your Impala has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. 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 Impala maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1985 Chevrolet Impala!

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. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Impala perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1985 Chevrolet Impala problems later.

Overview of Essential Chevrolet Impala Maintenance Needs

Bring your 1985 Chevrolet Impala to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 Impala’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 1985 Chevrolet Impala 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 Chevrolet Impala 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. 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 Impala won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1985 Chevrolet Impala'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 1985 Impala. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1985 Chevrolet Impala? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Chevrolet Impala 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. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide Chevrolet Impala steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Chevrolet Impala's steering and suspension system.

If you skip recommended Chevrolet Impala services, 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 Impala cooling, heating, and climate control system. Need a new Chevrolet Impala radiator? We’ve got your back. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We'll fix it. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your spot for 1985 Chevrolet Impala maintenance.

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

1985 Chevrolet Impala Maintenance Q&A

Take an active role in maintaining your 1985 Chevrolet Impala. Get answers to common Chevrolet Impala maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • When should I have Chevrolet Impala alignment checked? You know your Chevrolet Impala better than anyone else, so you’ll know if something doesn’t feel right while driving. Have your alignment checked (and adjusted if necessary) as soon as you notice a pulling steering wheel to prevent suspension damage or uneven tire wear.
  • When does my Chevrolet Impala need high mileage oil? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Chevrolet Impala engines.
  • Can I ignore dashboard lights on my Chevrolet? Because there might be a problem under the hood. Those warning lights are there for a reason! As soon as you notice that one’s illuminated, take your Chevrolet Impala to Firestone Complete Auto Care so you can address any small problems long before they worsen.
