Tips to Prepare Your Nissan for Spring
Winter can take a big toll on your Nissan, especially in Canada, when winter is almost half the year. That is why following these simple spring maintenance tips are important to keep your Nissan in tip-top shape for as long as possible.
Swap Your Tires
One of the first things you should think about once the weather reaches seven degrees Celsius consistently is swapping your winter tires out. Winter tires are essential for conquering Canadian roads during the winter and can promote safety for you, your vehicle, and others on the surrounding road. However, once the weather warms up, it is essential that you swap your winter tires out for all-season or performance tires. Winter tires are made for freezing temperatures and can wear out much quicker on hot surfaces. Furthermore, keeping your winter tires on during spring and summer can reduce fuel economy, costing you more in the long run.
Wash Your Nissan Thoroughly
We all know how dirty our cars can get in the winter from the accumulation of salt or parking underground all season. Giving your Nissan a thorough wash inside and out can help bring your vehicle back to its lively self. Once you clean the exterior with soap and water, be sure to wax the surface to help protect the paint and make it shine.
Check Your Fluids
Finally, if you have been putting off checking your oil or refilling your fluids in freezing temperatures, the start of a new season is the perfect time to do it! Check your windshield washer fluid, coolant levels, brake, transmission, and steering fluids. Contact us if you need assistance topping any of these up or getting an oil change.
