Your Chevrolet is more than just a vehicle – it’s a trusted companion on daily commutes, road trips, and every journey in between. At Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe, we’re dedicated to helping you keep your Chevy running smoothly for years to come. Whether you drive a Chevrolet Silverado, Equinox, Malibu, or any other model, regular maintenance and smart service habits are key to maximizing performance and reliability.

Here are some essential Chevrolet service tips to ensure your vehicle remains in top shape, saving you time and money on repairs.

Stay on Top of Oil Changes

Regular oil changes are critical for your Chevrolet’s engine health. Oil lubricates engine components, reducing friction and preventing overheating. Over time, oil can become dirty and lose its effectiveness, leading to potential engine damage.

  • Tip: Check your owner’s manual for the recommended oil change interval, typically every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. At Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe, we offer quick and convenient oil change services using Genuine Chevrolet Motor Oil.

  • Pro Tip: Opt for synthetic oil for enhanced performance and longer intervals between changes.

Rotate Your Tires Regularly

Tire rotation helps maintain even tire wear, extending the life of your tires and ensuring a safer, smoother ride. It also improves fuel efficiency and vehicle handling.

  • Tip: Rotate your tires every 6,000 to 8,000 miles or during every oil change for convenience.
  • Pro Tip: Check your tire pressure monthly, as properly inflated tires improve fuel economy and handling.

Keep an Eye on Your Brakes

Your brakes are crucial for safety, so it’s essential to monitor their condition. Listen for unusual noises like squeaking or grinding, and pay attention to any vibration or reduced responsiveness.

  • Tip: Have your brakes inspected at least once a year or if you notice any warning signs. At Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe, our certified technicians use Genuine Chevrolet Brake Parts for optimal safety and performance.
  • Pro Tip: Replace brake fluid every two years to maintain braking efficiency and prevent corrosion.

Change Air Filters for Better Performance

Air filters keep dust, dirt, and debris out of your engine and cabin. A clogged engine air filter can reduce performance and fuel efficiency, while a dirty cabin filter affects air quality inside the vehicle.

  • Tip: Replace the engine air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, and the cabin air filter once a year.
  • Pro Tip: If you frequently drive in dusty or polluted areas, consider changing filters more often for optimal air quality and engine performance.

Maintain Your Battery’s Health

A well-maintained battery ensures your Chevrolet starts reliably and powers all electrical systems efficiently. Extreme temperatures and short trips can impact battery life.

  • Tip: Check your battery’s charge and clean any corrosion from the terminals regularly. Replace the battery every 3 to 5 years.
  • Pro Tip: At Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe, we offer complimentary battery checks to keep you powered up and on the road.

Don’t Ignore Warning Lights

Your Chevrolet’s dashboard warning lights are designed to alert you to potential issues before they become serious. Ignoring these warnings can lead to costly repairs and safety risks.

  • Tip: If you see a Check Engine Light, Brake Warning Light, or any other indicator, schedule a diagnostic appointment immediately.
  • Pro Tip: Our state-of-the-art diagnostic tools at Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe quickly pinpoint issues, allowing for fast and accurate repairs.

Regular Multi-Point Inspections

Routine inspections help identify minor issues before they turn into major problems. A comprehensive multi-point inspection includes checking fluid levels, tire condition, brake wear, and more.

  • Tip: Schedule a multi-point inspection with every oil change or at least once a year.
  • Pro Tip: At Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe, we provide complimentary multi-point inspections with every service visit to ensure your Chevrolet is road-ready.

Follow Your Chevrolet Maintenance Schedule

Chevrolet provides a recommended maintenance schedule tailored to each model. Following this schedule keeps your vehicle in peak condition and helps maintain its resale value.

  • Tip: Refer to your Chevrolet Owner’s Manual for the maintenance schedule specific to your model.
  • Pro Tip: Sign up for service reminders at Hendrick Chevrolet Monroe so you never miss a critical maintenance milestone.
