At Tegeler Chevrolet, serving Houston, Sugar Land, and Rosenberg, TX, our factory-trained technicians provide the expertise and genuine Chevrolet parts essential to keeping your Silverado 1500 running at its best.

However, there are some general guidelines that Silverado owners can follow to help keep their trucks performing optimally. Following a service schedule not only safeguards essential systems like your engine, transmission, and advanced safety features, but also protects your truck’s value and ensures you’re ready for every job or adventure.

Here are a few essential maintenance intervals to keep in mind for most Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models:

• Every 7,500 miles or 12 months: Oil and oil filter change, tire rotation, inspection of brakes and fluid levels.
• Every 15,000-22,500 miles: Replace air filter, inspect the brake system, and check suspension and steering components.
• Every 45,000 miles: Replace cabin air filter and check the transfer case fluid (for 4WD models); inspect the exhaust system and evaporative control systems.
• Every 97,500 miles: Replace spark plugs, inspect ignition wires, check fuel system.
• Every 150,000 miles: Replace engine coolant, inspect drive belts, and perform a complete transmission fluid exchange for select models.
• Additionally: Check wiper blades, battery, tire tread and pressure, and all exterior lighting at regular intervals.
