It isn’t always easy to know when to bring your Volvo in for service. The truth is, its an easy thing to lose track of, especially if you suddenly find yourself driving far more or far less than usual. That said, the Volvo Service Center at Giles Volvo in Lafayette has the expertise you need to keep your Volvo running like new, and we’ll send you regular reminders to ensure that you can keep up with your Volvo service needs.

Volvo Service Intervals

Generally speaking, your Volvo should visit us for service every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, although you should consult your owner’s manual for specifics regarding your exact model. Of course, once you visit our dealership for your first oil change we’ll give you an oil change reminder with both a mileage and a date target, and whichever one comes first will determine when you should next pay us a visit.

Signs I Should Have My Volvo Serviced

In between oil changes, there may be other signs that pop up that may warrant an extra visit to our service center. One of the most common issues you may come across is grinding when applying the brakes. This means that your brake pads are worn out and in need of replacement, and that is a service you do not want to postpone.

The same is true should you feel that your handling has changed suddenly, whether you have a tire that needs to be checked or suspension components that are in need of attention.

Finally, if you feel a loss of power or strange behavior from your engine, schedule your service appointment with our dealership as soon as possible.
