1Ready for the Cold? Winter Auto Maintenance Tips!
2Automobiles run differently in colder weather
the elements can cause greater wear-and-tear on
your car, and bad tires can put you at risk in
icy or snowy conditions. As the weather turns
colder, its time to do some essential winter
auto maintenance to make sure your car is ready
for the season.
3Old, worn tires lose traction in snow, ice, or
heavy rain. If your tires are old, replace them
with quality all-weather tires. If you do a lot
of driving in the mountains or snow, consider
putting snow tires on your car.
Check Tire Tread
4Make sure your wiper fluid is topped off and
carry a spare bottle with you in the car. Replace
old and worn wiper blades because rain, snow,
and ice can impair your visibility.

5The last thing you want on a cold winter day is
to be stranded because your car won't start. Make
sure the contacts on your car battery are clean
and corrosion-free. If your cars battery is more
than four years old, consider replacing it.
Check Your Battery
6Cold weather makes the oil in your car run
thicker some manufacturers recommend using lower
viscosity oil for the cold months. Getting a
fresh oil change before winter, and changing to a
thinner viscosity oil (if recommended), will help
your car run more reliably in the cold.
Check/Change Your Oil
