I recently purchased a 1998 Toyota Supra and I'm not sure when I should schedule a tune-up. It has around 50,000 miles on it and I want to make sure I maintain it properly. Any advice on when to get a tune-up and what it should include?
ReplyHi Nina, congrats on your new Supra! Generally, it's recommended to get a tune-up every 30,000-40,000 miles or every 2-3 years, whichever comes first. However, since your Supra is older and has low mileage, it's a good idea to get a tune-up sooner rather than later to ensure everything is running smoothly. This can include changing spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, and checking for any potential issues. Make sure to also check your owner's manual for specific recommendations for your model year.
Hey Nina, it's important to keep up with regular tune-ups to keep your Supra performing at its best. I would recommend scheduling one now since you don't know when the previous owner last got one. It's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to maintaining your car. And if you notice any issues or changes in performance, don't hesitate to schedule another tune-up sooner. Better to catch any problems early on.
Hi Nina, great question! I would suggest getting a tune-up every 30,000 miles as a general rule of thumb. But since your Supra has low mileage, you can probably wait a little longer. Instead, focus on keeping up with regular oil changes and other routine maintenance. And if you feel like your car isn't running as smoothly as it used to, it may be time for a tune-up, even if you haven't hit the mileage yet.
