Spring Maintenance Tips
Preparing Your Vehicle for Texas Spring Weather
Most people today drive their cars throughout the year. Due to the variation in weather, you need to continue to make sure that your car is ready for the months ahead. There are several services and tips that should be followed to get your car ready for spring each year.
Car Wash and Detailing
The winter months of the year can be very bad on the interior and exterior of your vehicle. Due to salt, snow, ice, and dirt, your car can be very dirty by the end of this season. To make sure that it is in good condition, you could have a full car wash and detailing service done at the start of winter. This will make sure that your car is properly cleaned out and ready for the warmer months of the year.
Tire Inspection
At the start of spring, you should also have a full tire inspection service done. Tough road conditions in the winter can do a lot of damage to your tires. During a tire inspection service, a technician will measure the tread and tire pressure to make sure it is working well. If necessary, they may recommend some additional tire repair services to ensure they are working well.
Battery Testing
While a car battery can last for a long time, there could come a situation in which it needs to be replaced. To ensure that your battery is in good working order, you should have it tested regularly. One great time of the year to do this is before the start of the spring season, which comes after the winter when the weather can be tough on a battery.
Wiper Blades
During the cold winter months of the year, your wiper blades will likely have taken a lot of stress due to ice, snow and cold weather. In many cases, they are worn down to the point where they are not as effective as they need to be. You should try to replace your wiper blades at the start of spring.
Air Conditioner Service
Finally, you will want to make sure that your air conditioner is working well. While the start of spring is normally rather cool, by the end it can be quite hot. Due to this, you should make sure that your vehicle’s air conditioner is working well and is ready for the hot months ahead.
