2000 GMC Savana 3500 Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your GMC Savana 3500 and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Savana 3500. 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 Savana 3500 maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2000 GMC Savana 3500!

GMC 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. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Savana 3500 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2000 GMC Savana 3500 problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2000 GMC Savana 3500 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Savana 3500’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2000 GMC Savana 3500 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 Savana 3500 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your GMC Savana 3500 battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! 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 GMC Savana 3500 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 support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2000 GMC Savana 3500 running newer, longer.

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 2000 GMC Savana 3500.
