2006 Dodge Viper Maintenance

Take care of your Dodge Viper and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Viper 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. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Viper, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2006 Dodge Viper maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Dodge themselves. 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. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Viper running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2006 Dodge Viper problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2006 Dodge Viper 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Viper. 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 2006 Dodge Viper be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Viper may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Dodge Viper 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. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Viper) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Dodge Viper could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

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 2006 Dodge Viper engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2006 Viper. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. 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 2006 Dodge Viper.

This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Dodge Viper's steering and suspension system.
