2003 Toyota Tundra Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Toyota Tundra to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Tundra. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Tundra maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2003 Toyota Tundra!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Toyota themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Tundra running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2003 Toyota Tundra problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2003 Toyota Tundra 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 Tundra’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 2003 Toyota Tundra be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Toyota Tundra 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 Tundra won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2003 Toyota Tundra running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2003 Tundra. 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 2003 Toyota Tundra? We can help with that, too!

Periodic service to the steering system in your Toyota Tundra can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. 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 Tundra steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Toyota Tundra's steering and suspension system.
