Get to Know Your Chevy Model's Recommended Service Intervals
The main goal of routine maintenance is to reduce wear and tear on your vehicle and stave off costly repairs. So, if you want to keep your car running smoothly and major repairs at bay, the best thing you can do is keep up with your car's recommended service schedule. Your Chevy will thank you for it, and so will your wallet. Even the smallest routine maintenance items can have a huge impact on your car's performance and overall health, so we highly recommend keeping current with routine service.
How do you know what your car needs and when? Here's a quick look at a typical service schedule and some of the services that you can schedule here at our dealership.
At 15,000 Miles
The 15,000-mile mark is where you will typically see a variety of common maintenance items pop up. This interval frequently calls for an oil change, tire rotation, and new air filters to keep your car running smoothly. This interval can also call for a power steering fluid replacement and a transmission fluid inspection to ensure that everything is working properly. The 15,000-mile interval is also a good time to check headlights and other exterior parts.
At 30,000 Miles
When your car hits the 30,000-mile mark, your service schedule will call for the services at the 15,000-mile interval as well as a variety of other services. These can include an inspection to make sure components like your spark plugs and other engine components are working properly. You might also need new transmission fluid and a new filter. Aside from these services, this interval calls for a general inspection to make sure that your Chevy is running well and doesn't have any underlying issues beneath the hood.
At 60,000 Miles
On top of the services found in earlier intervals, you will likely need belt and hose inspections. If it turns out that you need new belts and hoses, you can count on us to use genuine Chevy parts to keep your journeys around Delphos going as smoothly as possible. A general inspection is also part of this interval to keep an eye on your car and catch potential problems before they get worse.
At 90,000 Miles
When you hit 90,000 miles, your car will need the typical general maintenance items and the services from earlier intervals. A timing belt replacement is also a common part of this interval. At this point, your Chevy has many miles and likely many years under its belt, so this interval is particularly important when it comes to inspecting your vehicle and ensuring that it doesn't need any extra attention to keep it running at full strength.
