What tires are best for a 2008 Toyota Highlander? Check out the following tire brands and types.
Other than getting the proper tire size, you also want to think about a couple of other things when getting new Toyota Highlander tires like how and where you drive, and how much you want to spend. When evaluating your driving conditions, think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience. It's not uncommon for drivers in states that experience all four seasons to buy more than one set of tires. one for summer and one for winter. Other drivers buy one set of all-season tires instead. That way they don't have to return to the tire shop and their vehicle is always ready for sun, rain, and light snow!
Your personal driving style is the next factor to consider. If you're a big off-roading fan who forges paths where others can't, you have very different needs than a long-distance commuter who sticks to the highway. Browse Toyota Highlander tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

Toyota recommends changing your 2008 Highlander’s oil at regular intervals. Your Highlander may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Toyota recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances.
Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Toyota Highlander. Consult Toyota's recommendations to select the right 2008 Highlander oil and talk with a teammate to learn more about our oil options: Quaker State® Advanced Durability™ conventional oil, Pennzoil® High Mileage Vehicle® motor oil, Pennzoil Platinum® Full Synthetic motor oil with PurePlus™ Technology, and Shell Rotella® heavy-duty engine oil. During your oil change service, an auto technician will change your Highlander’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off important fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. Get professional engine care by making an oil change appointment for your Highlander today.
Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your Highlander. Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Toyota Highlander engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option. The standard Firestone Tune-Up includes new spark plugs (and installation!), a thorough inspection of engine components, and a lifetime parts warranty*. A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your Highlander. The third tune-up option is a fuel system cleaning service, which is a three-step process that removes varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits on your Highlander's fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Highlander can determine what kind of service it needs. Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

When you first bought your 2008 Toyota Highlander, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough.

Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, even the smallest transmission problems should be addressed right away. 2008 Toyota Highlander transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood.

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we perform a multi-point Courtesy Check during any vehicle service. The technician will begin by testing your Toyota Highlander's battery to see how much charge it has left – and determine if it may fail in the near future. The check will continue with a visual inspection of your Toyota Highlander's lights, windshield wipers, filters, fluid levels, belts, hoses, tires, and alignment.
Every service performed at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care will include a Courtesy Check, but we also offer an in-depth Complete Vehicle Inspection for your 2008 Toyota Highlander.

Regular, proactive service on the radiator in your 2008 Toyota Highlander is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. To keep your radiator functioning, Toyota recommends replacing your antifreeze or coolant at scheduled intervals but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad. You could be on the verge of a radiator-induced engine breakdown if you notice leaking coolant, overheating, or an illuminated low coolant dashboard light.
When you come to Firestone Complete Auto Care, we’ll begin your radiator repair with an in-depth inspection of the cooling system in your Toyota Highlander. We’ll do a machine-powered coolant exchange on the system, and then we’ll top off or replace the fluids that were removed (like chemicals, lubricants, and sealants). Lastly, we’ll perform a pressure check to look for leaks. From the heater core to the radiator cap, we’re here to give your 2008 Toyota Highlander the top-notch service it needs.
