Recommended Toyota Tundra Service Schedule

Whether you’re driving around Memphis or your travels take you further every day, when it comes to maintaining your Tundra truck, you should always adhere to the recommended maintenance schedule outlined in your owner’s manual. At the 5,000 mile or 6-month mark, you should follow recommended maintenance intervals to avoid larger problems going forward.

    Oil and filter change
  • Top off or replace fluids
  • Rotate tires
  • Full vehicle inspection inside and out.

One of the most important parts of visiting us for a routine service visit is the inspection process. While your owner’s manual can outline the crucial, mechanical needs of your vehicle, it’s the inspection process that helps keep your vehicle at 100% for longer. Everything from removing the weather mats under your feet to ensure that moisture isn’t trapped and causing potential rust to filling up your tires goes a long way.

We recommend that you bring your vehicle in for a 10k mile servicing or any time within the year to address any issues and allow your vehicle to continue reaching its full potential. During a 10k or 12-month visit, we’ll perform all the services from the former 5k visit, plus a full inspection of the braking system to make sure that every part and component is performing the way it was engineered to.

  • Replace the cabin air filter
  • Inspect brakes and the entire braking system
  • Replace oil and oil filter

The 15k mile marker is a large one for properly servicing your vehicle. Routine maintenance is also called preventative maintenance, as it prevents larger problems by addressing the routine ones when they arise. Your Toyota Tundra truck is built to perform and will continue to at the high level you need it with regular maintenance. One of the most important reasons to visit us after 15k miles is the inspection and servicing of parts that don’t regularly come up, including ball joints, radiator condenser, steering system, and more.

  • Ball joints
  • Brake lines and hoses
  • Engine coolant
  • Drive shaft
  • Steering system
  • And more
