Can GMCs get engine sludge?

Yes, regular oil changes really ARE important! If you’re driving around with old motor oil, the broken-down fluid (and resulting debris) isn’t protecting your engine parts. In fact, it may even be causing slow damage to your GMC C1500’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.

How does GMC's recommended maintenance help me?

Yes! GMC has written a maintenance schedule for your C1500. Since they made your vehicle, they know it well! Your manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule gives you solid guidelines for the frequency of specific services, and it can help you know when to replace certain parts before they cause secondary issues in your car.

What should I tell the technician when I bring my GMC to the shop?

Listen to your car (and your gut!). As the person who drives your vehicle day in and day out, you know it best! When you notice something that feels different while driving or just feels “off” to you, trust your gut! Often, small issues can be easily fixed if they’re caught early. But, letting even minor issues linger can spell real trouble for your car down the road. Don’t wait to get a repair service for your GMC C1500.

What does a radiator do, anyway? It assists in keeping your engine temperature within a safe range.
