When you spring clean your car, a car wash is highly recommended. The winter season can be incredibly tough on your vehicle, and freezing temperatures and road salt can do damage to your car’s underside and paint. We highly recommend investing the money into carwash options that will thoroughly clean the outside of your vehicle so that all of your vehicle’s nooks and crannies are cleared of any wintertime debris and road salt. If you’re washing your car yourself, add baking soda to the wash water if your car has strong salt buildup. This will help neutralize the salt.
Parma drivers should always ensure that their tire pressure is at the manufacturer-recommended level. Wintertime can add fluctuations to tire pressure, and low tire pressure during or near the end of winter is one of the easy signs that your car needs a tune-up. It’s also important to ensure that your tires are rotated routinely so that your treads can wear down more evenly. It may be time to add more air to your tires to replace your tires if you’re noticing consistently low tire pressure, especially during the winter months.
Your windshield wipers may experience some wear and tear during the winter months. If you’re noticing your wipers are streaking or you notice them starting to loosen or “flap” while on, it’s time for new windshield wipers. New windshield wipers are inexpensive and easy to replace yourself, so all you need to to find the right kind of windshield wiper for your vehicle. Drivers should also add more wiper fluid and any needed windshield treatments to repel water and rain.
Winter can do a lot to your car, and that includes your battery’s charge. Many parts shops have free battery checks that’ll allow you to see how strong your battery is. If your battery is weaker, it’s likely time to replace it. You can often trade in your current battery for a discount on your next battery, saving you money on your purchase.
Out of all of our Spring tune-up tips, an oil change may not be surprising, but it’s an essential step of needed maintenance on your vehicle. Always be sure to follow your manufacturer’s recommended oil change intervals and oil viscosity– and don’t forget to change your oil filter. It’s a good idea to have an oil check/change, tire and battery checks, and tire rotations all at once to make sure your vehicle is in its best shape.
