Check the Pressure Levels and the Condition of the Tires

 You may already know it, but the sudden change in temperature between cold winter and warm spring can present a problem for tire pressure, so it's imperative to always keep an eye on your tire pressure. If your car is new, indeed, you will have sensors that will help you keep it at the designated level, but if not, you can go to your authorized service center or your trusted mechanic to have it checked by professionals. In addition to the pressure, the tires' condition is critical since keeping the tread in optimal condition could prevent complications during the springtime. As a general rule, the track on the rim should be at least 2 millimeters deep. To check this, you can use depth gauges, which can be purchased at auto parts stores and specialized automotive stores.

Change Your Car's Filters

 This season brings with it the resurgence of flowers, insects, and other elements that could affect your vehicle. Because of this, it's crucial to change the air filter to keep the engine powered by clean and fresh air, even if it is not the cleanest outside. It should be a part you keep replacing seasonally. The air conditioning system's pollen filter is essential to keep the cabin supplied with fresh air. Winter is wet and cold, perfect for the spread of fungi and other harmful microorganisms in the pollen filter. This causes dirty air to enter the cabin through the air conditioner, which could cause various diseases.

Getting familiarized with AMSOIL products can make a difference in your car's maintenance.

Examine Your Battery

 During winter, low temperatures can affect the acid with which your car battery works. You must keep an eye on its condition, especially if it has already been in operation for more than four years, as it will begin to diminish its life. Battery problems are usually easy to spot and could start a slight delay in your car's ignition timing. If this happens to you while trying to turn it on or it takes a couple of seconds longer to start the car than it usually would, then maybe you should think about replacing it.

Antifreeze Fluid

 With temperatures rising rapidly, antifreeze becomes one of the most indispensable elements for your vehicle. It acts in the same way it protects the car during the winter but with heat instead of the cold. Keep an eye on the level of antifreeze in the reservoir and, if you haven't replaced it two years or you reached its limit of 25,000 miles, it might be time to replace it. Remember that you should never handle the antifreeze while your car is hot, as this could end in a severe accident.

Windshield Wiper Maintenance

 With spring, the first rains of the year will also arrive. Therefore one of the most vital components that you should consider will be the windshield washer fluid and the wipers. You shouldn't overlook the elements that help maintain visibility during a storm. It's best to replace the wipers every year before the rains begin and always use a replacement certified by your manufacturer to ensure maximum performance. Also, the windshield washer fluid can be replaced using water or a liquid recommended by the manufacturer.
