1987 Mitsubishi Galant Maintenance

When it comes to your Mitsubishi Galant, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Galant. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Galant, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1987 Mitsubishi Galant!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Mitsubishi themselves. 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. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Galant running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1987 Mitsubishi Galant problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1987 Mitsubishi Galant and an expert technician will begin by performing 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Galant's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1987 Mitsubishi Galant. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. 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 Mitsubishi Galant battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Galant stranded. Your Mitsubishi Galant won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1987 Mitsubishi Galant engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1987 Galant. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1987 Mitsubishi Galant? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mitsubishi Galant can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle.

To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Mitsubishi Galant's steering and suspension system.
