Fun Stuff Friday !🇨🇦 Canadian Thanksgiving Weekend - 5Things to PonderBefore winter!
Episode notes
It's Fun Friday at the Car Connection Motormouth Workshop, and we've got FIVE things to ponder, plus a bonus tip that'll make you wonder what some drivers are thinking!
Cold weather has a nasty habit of exposing neglected maintenance. The time to preapre is BEFORE the temperature drops, not when you're standing i na frozen parking lot wondering why your vehicle won't cooperate!
Here's what's on the workbench today:
1) Do your wipers suck? If you can't see clearly, you can't drive safely. Check those bleades before winter weather turns your windshield into a visibility nightmare.
2) How are your fluids doing really? Coolant, oil and other vital fluids deserve attention before the cold asrrives. Winter will expose weaknesses you didn't know you had.
3) Does your vehicle have an external fuel filter? If it does, find out what your manufacturers maintenance schedule says. Don't assume every vehicle has a serviceable external filter.
4) What's in your washer -fluid jug? Minus 40℃? Don't gamble with a mixture that freezes when you need it most. Here at the workshop, we don't do halfway measures!
5) Have you protected your door seals? Silicone protection can help prevent frozen seals from sticking. A little preparation beats trying to pry open your vehicle after an overnight freeze!
BONU TIP: WINTER TIRES
Still trusting those three-season tires to carry you through another Canadian winter? Your tires are your connection to the road. When temperatures drop and conditions deteriorate, proper winter tires can make a real difference in traction, control and stopping performance.
Remember: winter preparation isn't something you do AFTER the first snowstorm. It's something you do before Mother Nature decides to test your judgment!
That's how e roll at the Car Connection Motormouth Workshop - practical advice, real - world experience and vehiclke maintenance that makes sense.
