1989 Mitsubishi Starion Maintenance

You want your Mitsubishi Starion to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your Starion could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Starion maintenance. Just follow your 1989 Mitsubishi Starion maintenance schedule!

Mitsubishi knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. 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. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Starion running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 1989 Mitsubishi Starion problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1989 Mitsubishi Starion 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. 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.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1989 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). 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 Mitsubishi Starion 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 Starion stranded. Your Mitsubishi Starion won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can help your 1989 Mitsubishi Starion's engine run smoother.
