1986 Toyota Celica Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Toyota Celica to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your Celica has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Celica maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Just follow your 1986 Toyota Celica maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Toyota, 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 Celica perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1986 Toyota Celica problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1986 Toyota Celica 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Celica's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 1986 Toyota Celica be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate.

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 Celica stranded. Your Toyota Celica won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
