5-Point Checklist to Winterize Your Car

1. Synthetic Oil  Summer temperatures and challenging driving conditions make your engine work even harder. An easy way to help keep your engine running smoothly this summer is to keep up with your oil and oil filter changes. Upgrading to synthetic oil can help provide added protection against engine wear in harsh conditions and extreme hot temperatures.

2. HEATING SYSTEM Check Although Canada is predominately a cold country,  This is why we believe it is important to ensure your car’s Heating System is always working properly.  It is also important to keep the other components of your automobile warm. Getting your heating system checked is a good idea. Significant issues might arise as a result of Anti Freeze leaks. If you suspect a leak, schedule an appointment  as soon as possible.

3. Winter Tires -Peace of Mind: No matter what the weather brings, driving with winter tires can help to improve your vehicle’s breaking and maneuverability in winter conditions. We will check your  tires and make any recommendations on the best tires for your vehicle. Also saves you on your Auto insurance

4. Battery Test - You might not have known it, but cold winters can be very harsh on batteries! Your vehicle’s ability to start isn’t something you should take for granted through the Canadian winter. It is always a good idea to have your battery and other electrical systems checked to help ensure your vehicle starts when the temperatures drop. We will check your battery strength.

5. Antifreeze / Coolant -It is important to have your vehicle’s coolant levels checked prior to the summer season. Fresh coolant is less likely to freeze and can help prevent rust and corrosion from building up in your cooling system. We will top all fluids.

You want to make sure your car is ready to handle tough driving conditions that come when winter weather arrives. Let our team help you prepare with our winterizing services today. Please call to book an appointment and we will get to work right away to make sure your antifreeze is at the right level and your vehicle is ready to handle the winter wether, and the potential of any hazards on the road. You’ll be glad to have a car that’s been winterrized by our team when you head back on the road.
