1997 Subaru Impreza Maintenance Schedule

You want your Subaru Impreza to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Impreza has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Impreza, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1997 Subaru Impreza!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Subaru themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Impreza perform better, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1997 Subaru Impreza problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 1997 Subaru Impreza for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing 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 Impreza’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1997 Subaru Impreza? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Impreza may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Subaru Impreza battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Impreza) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Subaru Impreza could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1997 Subaru Impreza engine. To learn how often Subaru recommends you have the oil changed in your 1997 Impreza, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. 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. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1997 Subaru Impreza? We can help with that, too!

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 Subaru Impreza's steering and suspension system.
