When the seasons change from summer to winter, there are a few things that you can do to ensure that your car is ready for the season. One of the first things to consider is changing your tires to winter tires so that you have the best traction on the road while driving in Charlotte. You also want to make sure there is proper tire pressure as colder temperatures can sometimes result in lower pressure.
Fluids
Check the antifreeze in your car before driving for extended periods of time in winter. This fluid can keep the engine, radiator, and other components from freezing. You also want to check the oil as you want to have a thinner oil in your car since colder temperatures can sometimes make the oil thicker over time.
Technical
Make sure your battery is charged as well as the alternator. You can visit Hendrick MINI to have someone examine these components to ensure the headlights, heat, and other electrical components have enough power.
