2006 Toyota Tundra Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Toyota Tundra and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Tundra. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Tundra, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2006 Toyota Tundra maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Toyota themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your Tundra perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2006 Toyota Tundra problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2006 Toyota Tundra for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with 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 Tundra’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2006 Toyota Tundra. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and 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. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Toyota Tundra battery. 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 Tundra stranded. Your Toyota Tundra could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2006 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 2006 Tundra. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 2006 Toyota Tundra? We can help with that, too!

Maintaining your Toyota Tundra steering and suspension system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide the appropriate Toyota Tundra steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. Components within your Toyota Tundra's steering system require regular maintenance.

Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Toyota Tundra cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is your Toyota Tundra radiator in need of replacement? We’ve got your back. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We’re on it.
