1999 Honda Civic Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Honda Civic to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Civic 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. There's no need to guess when it's time to get Civic maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1999 Honda Civic!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Honda, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes 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 Civic running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 1999 Honda Civic problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1999 Honda Civic for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Civic's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1999 Honda Civic? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Civic may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Honda Civic 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty Civic) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Honda Civic won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1999 Honda Civic's engine run smoother. To learn how often Honda recommends you have the oil changed in your 1999 Civic, check out the information table at the beginning 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. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1999 Honda Civic? We can help with that, too!
