1998 Jaguar Vanden Plas Maintenance Schedule

You want your Jaguar Vanden Plas to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Vanden Plas could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Vanden Plas maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 1998 Jaguar Vanden Plas maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Jaguar, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Vanden Plas's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1998 Jaguar Vanden Plas problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1998 Jaguar Vanden Plas for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Vanden Plas’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1998 Jaguar Vanden Plas. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Jaguar Vanden Plas battery. 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 Vanden Plas) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Jaguar Vanden Plas won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 1998 Jaguar Vanden Plas's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1998 Vanden Plas.

Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1998 Jaguar Vanden Plas?
