Here’s Why 1987 Volkswagen Quantum Scheduled Maintenance Matters

You want your Volkswagen Quantum to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Quantum.

It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1987 Volkswagen Quantum!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Volkswagen, your vehicle manufacturer.

Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Quantum's life, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1987 Volkswagen Quantum problems later.

Overview of Essential Volkswagen Quantum Maintenance Needs

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1987 Volkswagen Quantum 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Quantum's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 1987 Volkswagen Quantum. In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. 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 Volkswagen Quantum battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! 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 Volkswagen Quantum could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 1987 Volkswagen Quantum running newer, longer. See Volkswagen's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 1987 Quantum in the chart at the top of this page. 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 1987 Volkswagen Quantum? We can help with that, too!

Routine upkeep for your Volkswagen Quantum suspension and steering system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!).

You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide the appropriate Volkswagen Quantum 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. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Volkswagen Quantum's steering and suspension system.
