1988 Chevrolet R10 Suburban Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Chevrolet R10 Suburban, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your R10 Suburban. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your R10 Suburban, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1988 Chevrolet R10 Suburban!

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 tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your R10 Suburban running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1988 Chevrolet R10 Suburban problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1988 Chevrolet R10 Suburban and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your R10 Suburban’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1988 Chevrolet R10 Suburban. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your R10 Suburban 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 R10 Suburban 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 R10 Suburban 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 1988 Chevrolet R10 Suburban engine. To learn how often Chevrolet recommends you have the oil changed in your 1988 R10 Suburban, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1988 Chevrolet R10 Suburban.
