1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban Maintenance

You want your Chevrolet R2500 Suburban to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your R2500 Suburban. 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 R2500 Suburban maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Chevrolet themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your R2500 Suburban perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban and a skilled technician will start the appointment 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your R2500 Suburban. 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.

Could your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and 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. 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 R2500 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 R2500 Suburban won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban'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 1990 R2500 Suburban.

We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban.
