Keep your car running smoothly in the winter months

It is always recommended that before changing the season, you must take your car for a health

check-up to the trusted service centre. Following are the major key points you need to concern

about.

 

Warming up your car

 

You must warm up your vehicle during the winters before you start moving. In contrast, it is right

that the mechanical elements inside have evolved greatly and is not at risk of facing any problems

that older cars tend to have. However, most mechanics still recommend warming up the car before

you start driving. Overall, warming up your car assures that the engine oil present inside covers

every corner and nook of the engine. Hence once you start to move, the engine's insides are

thoroughly lubricated. This reduces the levels of wear and tear in the engine. The best practice is to

let your car warm up for around 2-4 minutes before moving.

 

Battery health

 

Summer heat is the biggest enemy of your car battery's, and it is a well-established fact. If the

battery power is low or about to get exhausted, it means the battery has a chance of dying off during

the winter. We already know distilled water is present inside the battery and plays a major role in

the chemical reaction. But If this distilled water freezes during the reaction, it may cause permanent,

irreplaceable damage to the cells.

 

Tyre air pressure during winters

 

One of the more important things to take care of your car on our cold weather is your tyre air

pressure. Air works in a straightforward natural mechanism which applies universally. When a

wheel becomes hotter, it expands, and when it cools down, it contracts. Inside your wheel, these

effects are seen in terms of air pressure. During the summer, the tyre air pressure in your car

increases and during the winters, the pressure decreases. Thus, it is recommended that you perform

air pressure checks more frequently than you would normally.

 

Windshield

 

The windshield is also one of the most important components in your car. During winter, mist and

fog can gather over your windshield, especially in the morning. This has a direct effect on your

visibility, which can make your drive a lot riskier than usual. Fog is typically caused by a difference

in temperature between the exterior and the interior of the car.

 

This fog can be removed altering the same and minimizing the temperature difference, which

causes its occurrence in the first place. You can also prevent the occurrence of this fogging on the

whole by placing a dehumidifier pack inside the cabin.
