Winter Weather Tips!


 
 As we all know our wonderful unpredictable Michigan winter is just around the corner! We all need to prepare our cars and make sure they are ready for that sleek, snowy, windy, harsh winter. Here are a few things to check up and prepare:


· Make sure your tires have good traction on the road. Also, check the tire pressure.

· Turn on your heater make sure it’s working, if not BRING IT IN!!!! It would be awful once it gets really cold and it won’t work when you want it too.

· Check the engine coolant, if it needs to be flushed. Otherwise, if the coolant is not good for lower temperatures it’s going to freeze inside the engine. It will blow the engine!

· Check the battery voltage, and AMPs. Cold harsh weather will reduce the capability of the battery. When you need to start your engine it won't if it's not good.

· Check all of your oil levels, and the condition of the oil for:
oEngine oil
oTransmission oil
oPower steering fluid
oBrake fluid

· Check your windshield wipers and washer solvent.
