Import Service Milestones | Bloomington, IN

Your GM vehicle is built to last — but even the toughest cars, trucks, and SUVs need routine maintenance. Here are some service milestones to know to help you keep your Chevrolet, Buick, or GMC running at peak performance in Bloomington, Indiana.

Oil Changes

It’s a good idea to have the motor oil and oil filter replaced on your Silverado or Equinox every 3,000-7,000 miles by a certified mechanic. If you drive an older model, frequently tow heavy loads, explore off-road trails in Indiana, or drive in gridlocked traffic, you may need to have the oil changed more frequently.

New Filters

Give the fuel combustion process clean air with a new engine air filter every 15,000-30,000 miles. Breathe easier in your Encore by changing the cabin air filter every 15,000 miles. Swap out the fuel filter every 20,000 miles to safeguard the engine from contaminants.

Brake System

Responsive brakes are crucial for safe driving, so have your GM vehicle’s brakes inspected at every oil change. The brake pads and fluids will likely need to be replaced every 60,000 miles.

Wheel Alignment

To ensure a smooth ride in your Sierra, consider having your car’s wheels aligned once per year by a technician at Curry Auto Center. This is approximately every 6,000 miles.

Tire Rotation

Extend the service life of your truck’s, SUV’s, or sedan’s tires and ensure a better driving experience by having the tires rotated every 5,000-8,000 miles, or about every six months.

Battery And Spark Plugs

A bad battery can leave you stranded — so be sure to have the battery inspected every 20,000 miles and replaced as needed, usually around 35,000 miles. Spark plugs typically have a lifespan of 40,000 miles. And to make sure everything’s running smoothly, have the electrical wiring inspected every 50,000 miles.

Important Fluids

Your Colorado or Acadia needs a variety of critical fluids to run properly. Every month, be sure to check the transmission fluid level, along with the antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, and power steering fluid.
