Winterization to key vehicle systems like the brakes, cooling system, and tires administered in the fall helps you effectively prep for the cold before winter sets in. Casey BMW is here to help you with all of your winterizing needs.

Clean Your Coolant System

Antifreeze ensures that your engine correctly handles the stress of cold weather. However, if it isn’t replaced at regular intervals, your antifreeze can break down and become less effective. Ensure that you clean your coolant tank and replace it with a new supply in the fall.

Check Your Heating System

Another element to check before it gets too cold is the interior heating. This includes your air vents and any seat heating and ventilation systems. If one of these parts isn’t working correctly or delivering cold air, inspect it before winter arrives.

Inspect Your Brakes

Checking your brakes is a good idea no matter the season. In winter, they help you slow down effectively on slippery roads. That’s why inspecting your brakes in the fall should be part of your winter prep routine.

Replace Worn Tires

Tires that are worn down won’t grip the road well, especially icy or snowy surfaces. Check your tire tread depth and replace any tires that are too worn down. You should also check your tire pressure, since cooler temperatures cause it to drop, potentially compromising traction and safety.

Service Your Battery

Car batteries can be damaged by extreme heat or cold. Before the chill of winter takes effect, let us inspect your battery. We can replace any batteries that are too worn to survive cold weather.
