Recommended service and maintenance schedule for Chevrolet Silverado 1500
Chevrolet of Corsicana - Recommended service and maintenance schedule for Chevrolet Silverado 1500
At Chevrolet GMC of Corsicana, our Certified Service team helps your Chevrolet® Silverado® 1500 deliver the performance, safety, and long-term value you expect. We understand how towing, heat, dust, and stop-and-go driving in Texas can change maintenance needs, so we tailor every visit to your truck and driving habits while using GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco® components. We are proud to be serving in Corsicana, TX, Navarro County, and Ennis, and we make it simple to follow a plan that aligns with your Owner’s Manual and the vehicle’s Engine Oil Life Monitoring System. Whether your Silverado® 1500 is equipped with 2WD or 4WD, a TurboMax, V6, or V8, our factory-trained technicians can guide you on what to do now and what to plan for next. We also perform Multi-Point Inspections and road-test confirmations of key systems like ABS and StabiliTrak® after service. Use the general guidelines below as a starting point—then rely on our advisors to fine-tune intervals for severe vs. normal driving. We will document every visit to help protect your investment, maintain warranty coverage, and prevent small issues from turning into costly repairs.
- At every visit: Multi-Point Inspection, battery test, top off fluids, check lights and wipers, measure brake pad and tire tread depth, confirm TPMS and StabiliTrak® alerts.
- Oil life monitor or about every 7,500 miles/12 months: Engine oil and filter change, tire rotation, inspect belts, hoses, and underbody components.
- 15,000 miles: Inspect brakes and alignment, replace cabin air filter as needed, evaluate suspension and steering components.
- 30,000 miles: Replace engine air filter, clean throttle body as needed, inspect fuel system and PCV, check 4WD transfer case fluid condition.
- 45,000 miles or 3 years: Replace brake fluid, inspect cooling system hoses and clamps, evaluate driveline U-joints.
- 60,000 miles: Severe-duty transmission service; replace front/rear differential and transfer case fluids on 4WD; inspect water pump and belt tensioner.
- 100,000 miles: Replace coolant, spark plugs per engine specification, serpentine belt, and, for normal duty, transmission fluid and filter.
Pro tip: Conditions like frequent towing, idling, off-road use, or dusty routes require shorter intervals—our advisors can adjust your plan accordingly and set reminders so you never miss a key service. We back our work with factory procedures, use GM-approved fluids, and check for applicable software updates or service bulletins at each visit. Always follow the schedule and specifications in your Chevrolet® Owner’s Manual, and contact the manufacturer or our service team for details unique to your model year and engine. If you would like a personalized maintenance roadmap, transparent timelines, and a no-pressure explanation of what is due now vs. next, request more information and we will be glad to help.
