What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 2005 Mitsubishi Galant?
You want your Mitsubishi Galant to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Galant. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Galant, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2005 Mitsubishi Galant!
The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Mitsubishi, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Galant's life, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2005 Mitsubishi Galant problems later.
Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2005 Mitsubishi Galant for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Galant. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.
Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2005 Mitsubishi Galant? 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. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mitsubishi Galant 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Galant stranded. Your Mitsubishi Galant won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2005 Mitsubishi Galant engine. See Mitsubishi's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2005 Galant in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2005 Mitsubishi Galant.
