1983 Mitsubishi Starion Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Mitsubishi Starion and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Starion. 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 Starion maintenance. Just follow your 1983 Mitsubishi Starion maintenance schedule!

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; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Starion perform better, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1983 Mitsubishi Starion problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1983 Mitsubishi Starion 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 Starion’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1983 Mitsubishi Starion. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and 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 Starion battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Starion) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mitsubishi Starion won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 1983 Mitsubishi Starion'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 1983 Starion. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 1983 Mitsubishi Starion.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mitsubishi Starion can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide the appropriate Mitsubishi Starion steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Components within your Mitsubishi Starion's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Mitsubishi Starion services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Mitsubishi Starion’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Is your Mitsubishi Starion radiator in need of replacement? We got it. A/C smelling musty? We’re here to fix that, too.
