Summer Car Care Tips: It’s a fantastic time to prepare your car for the summer since the winter is coming to an end. Our cars suffer from the summer heat just like we do, therefore they too need to be driven with additional caution. The last thing anyone wants is a heat-related car problem, whether they choose to stay in the city or take a summer road trip. We’ve compiled a thorough list of car maintenance advice in this article to help you beat the heat and prepare your car.
Summer Car Care Tips
Test the AC
Air conditioning is a great companion for summer heat. You’ll need a functional air conditioning system in your automobile when the weather rises. Make sure you test your air conditioner before the summer arrives because you might not have used it in the winter or spring.
Check tyre pressure
Because tyres gradually lose or gain pressure based on ambient temperature, having proper tyre pressure ensures that the car performs properly throughout the year. Tyre pressure can rise in hot conditions, which can result in overinflated tyres and blowouts.
Conversely, underinflated tyres can impact handling, result in poor fuel efficiency, and raise the possibility of a tyre blowout. Thus, keeping your tyres at the right pressure ensures that your car runs better and more smoothly in the summer.
Test your battery
If you haven’t started your car in a long, the summers can be harsh on batteries. It is best to verify the battery’s age as well as the rubber coatings on the battery connectors. It’s probably time for a new battery if yours is more than five years old.
Oil Change
Checking your engine’s oil levels and getting an oil change or top-up is a smart idea if you haven’t replaced it in a while. You can find out if a change is due by looking through your car maintenance records.
Wiper Blade Replacement
Since the rubber on wiper blades tends to harden over time, extreme temperature changes can be hard on them. In addition to ensuring good vision on dusty days, changing the blades will keep your windscreen free of scratches.
