5 tips how to make your car fit for the winter:
Car check
Mount winter tires
Exterior cleaning
Air conditioner control
Check paint for damages
Car check
During a car check, the fluids, lighting, brakes and electrics are also checked. Small defects can be detected and replaced by a car check. Also, the car check is perfect if the vehicle has been sitting for a long time or you want to go on vacation.
Mount winter tires
Auto Müller also checks if your current winter or summer tires are still drivable in the next season. If your tires have less than 1.6 mm tread, this can lead to a fine and it is very dangerous. Auto Müller recommends that tires do not exceed 6 years of age. Also damaged or worn tires must be replaced.
Exterior cleaning
Road salt helps against snow and ice in winter, but is not optimal for your car. Road salt attacks the paint, rims, seals and underbody. For this reason, you should definitely perform a thorough exterior cleaning.
Air conditioner control
By checking the air conditioning system, leaks and signs of wear can be detected and repaired at an early stage. This is not only important for pleasant cooling, but also extends the service life of the entire system if carried out regularly.
Check paint for damages
Not only road salt can attack the paint, but also stone chipping, hail, bird droppings and also contact with bushes. All the above-mentioned points can also lead to rust. Therefore, Auto Müller recommends checking the paint for damage.
