The owner's manual for the 2018 Chevrolet Colorado outlines a comprehensive list of maintenance tasks to keep in mind. These include regular checks such as monitoring engine oil levels every time you refuel, monthly tire pressure inspections, assessing tire wear, and maintaining windshield washer fluid levels. Additionally, it is recommended to change the engine oil and filter either when prompted by the "change engine oil" message, within 600 miles of receiving the alert, or annually – whichever comes first. The cabin air filter should be replaced every 22,500 miles or every two years, whichever occurs first. Other routine maintenance includes tire rotations every 7,500 miles, monitoring engine oil levels and life percentage, checking coolant levels, inspecting windshield washer fluid, assessing windshield wipers, checking tire pressures, looking for tire wear, and examining the brake system, among other tasks.
For a Chevy Colorado, you should plan to have the oil changed every 5,000 miles, the major fluids changed every 25,000 miles, and an engine service done once you hit 100,000 miles.
