You want your Oldsmobile Intrigue to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Intrigue could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. 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 Intrigue maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Oldsmobile themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; 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. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Intrigue running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue problems.

Overview of Essential Oldsmobile Intrigue Maintenance Needs

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Intrigue’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue. 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). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Intrigue may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Oldsmobile Intrigue 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 Intrigue) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Oldsmobile Intrigue won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue running newer, longer. To learn how often Oldsmobile recommends you have the oil changed in your 2001 Intrigue, check out the information table at the beginning 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 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue.

This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Oldsmobile Intrigue's steering and suspension system.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Oldsmobile Intrigue? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
