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 Caballero’s engine! Routine oil changes may seem like an insignificant maintenance task, but trust us – your future self will thank you.

Do I need to follow GMC's recommended maintenance schedule?

Yes! GMC has written a maintenance schedule for your Caballero. 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.

How much information should I provide the technician about my GMC?

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 Caballero.

What does a radiator do, anyway? It helps regulate engine temperature. When your radiator fails or malfunctions, your chances of an overheated (and broken down) engine go way up.

Additionally, you should replace the coolant/antifreeze in your 1985 GMC Caballero at the intervals recommended by GMC. Not sure what signs could indicate a faulty radiator? An abnormally high engine temperature, low coolant light on your dashboard, or coolant leaks below your car could all signify that you need radiator repair.
