Take care of your Chevrolet Trailblazer, Tahoe, or Silverado, and you will get the best out of every mile. With regular car maintenance, your engine will run smoothly, and you will save bundles of cash on gas and repairs. The following tips from your Chevy dealer will help you keep your Chevy in tip-top shape and on the road much longer.
1. Regularly Service Your Chevy
Good maintenance starts with regularly servicing your Chevy. You’ll find the service schedule for your specific model in your vehicle’s owner’s manual. When you stick to the factory-recommended maintenance intervals, you’ll save money on gas and repairs, your service record will be up-to-date, increasing your car’s resale value, and your car will be a pleasure to drive.
2. Stick to the Oil Change Intervals
The most important task is an oil change. The oil in your Chevy lubricates the moving parts, reduces friction that causes heat, and cleans and cools your engine. If you own a newer Chevy, the Oil Life Monitoring System (OLMS) will warn you when your car needs an oil change.
The factory-recommended oil changes for older Chevrolet vehicles are every 3,000 to 7,500 miles or every six months. The oil change intervals for your specific Chevy model are in your owner’s manual, or you can ask a Chevrolet technician, who will also know which grade of oil is best for your vehicle.
3. Insist on Genuine OEM Chevrolet Parts
Genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are reliable and engineered explicitly by General Motors for your Chevy. We have a large inventory of OEM parts, and our Chevrolet technicians and part experts will help you find the correct replacement part.
