2017 Toyota 86 Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Toyota 86 and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, your 86 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 86 maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2017 Toyota 86!

Toyota 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 86 running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2017 Toyota 86 problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2017 Toyota 86 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your 86’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2017 Toyota 86. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your 86 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Toyota 86 battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Toyota 86 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2017 Toyota 86 engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2017 86. 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. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2017 Toyota 86? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Toyota 86 can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide Toyota 86 steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Components within your Toyota 86's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Toyota 86 maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Toyota 86 cooling, heating, and climate control system. Need a new Toyota 86 radiator? We can take care of that. A/C smelling musty? We’re here to fix that, too. Firestone Complete Auto Care is the place to go for 2017 Toyota 86 maintenance.
