Fall is The Perfect Time to Prepare Your Car for Colder Days

Cooler weather is approaching. Before the climate gets chilly, take some time to prepare your vehicle for the cooler weather. Here are few tips to get your car ready for autumn:

• Mend scrapes and scratches - Rust is your ultimate enemy. When your car has a few scratches and then exposed to rain or sleet rust can happen. Fix minor scrapes to fend off rust.
• Check your tires and your spare - Even if your car has fairly new tires, you still need to make sure they are in tiptop condition. Replace tires with worn treads. With the temperature changes tire pressure can fluctuate, so be sure that is checked as well. Also, make sure your spare tire is in good shape and properly inflated as well.
• Time to Change Your Oil - Cold temperature can be tougher on your engine. It's important to get an oil change to decrease the friction between components when running. Have a certified auto mechanic do the job for you.

Regular car maintenance can ensure that your vehicle will run longer and better. Contact Reliable Transmission Service for more information.
