Year-Round Maintenance Checklist for Your Peterbilt Truck
- Oil and Filter Changes
Regularly changing your oil and filters is essential for maintaining engine health. Follow the manufacturer’s recommended intervals and inspect for any leaks or unusual wear. - Inspect the Brakes
Safety is paramount, so routinely check your brake pads, rotors, and fluid levels. Pay attention to any unusual noises or reduced stopping power. - Check the Tires
Proper tire pressure and tread depth improve fuel efficiency and ensure safe handling. Rotate your tires as needed and inspect for any signs of wear or damage. - Test the Battery
A healthy battery is critical for starting your truck and powering essential systems. Check the terminals for corrosion and ensure sufficient charge, especially in colder months. - Inspect Lights and Electrical Systems
Faulty lights or electrical components can lead to safety hazards. Regularly test headlights, brake lights, and indicators to keep everything in working order. - Monitor Coolant and Fluids
Monitor coolant levels and other fluids like transmission and power steering fluid. Maintaining proper levels prevents overheating and ensures smooth operation. - Replace Air Filters
Clean air filters improve fuel efficiency and protect your engine from contaminants. Replace them as recommended by your service manual.
