Scheduled Maintenance for Your 1989 Chevrolet V3500

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 1989 Chevrolet V3500?

Here’s Why 1989 Chevrolet V3500 Scheduled Maintenance Matters

You want your Chevrolet V3500 to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your V3500 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your V3500, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1989 Chevrolet V3500!

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; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of 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 V3500 perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1989 Chevrolet V3500 problems later.

Essential Maintenance to Keep Your Chevrolet V3500 Running Newer, Longer

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1989 Chevrolet V3500 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your V3500's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 1989 Chevrolet V3500 be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your V3500 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Chevrolet V3500 battery, and so can frequent short drives. 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 V3500 stranded. Your Chevrolet V3500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1989 Chevrolet V3500 engine. See Chevrolet's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1989 V3500 in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1989 Chevrolet V3500.
