Hello Spring! Seasonal Maintenance Tips For Your Toyota at Crown Toyota
Posted on April 2, 2024
At Crown Toyota, we understand the significance of maintaining your Toyota vehicle's longevity, especially after enduring the challenges of winter weather conditions. Keeping your vehicle in top shape is vital, and a spring check-in ensures it performs optimally throughout the year.
Our recommendation aligns with your personalized maintenance schedule, advising servicing every 6 months or 8,000 km to prepare your vehicle for the upcoming season. Let's delve into the parts that might have been affected by colder conditions and how our Toyota Trained Technicians can assist your vehicle's transition into spring.
VEHICLE PARTS IMPACTED BY COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS
12V Battery: Cold temperatures strain your 12V battery, making it work harder to start the vehicle and power essential features. Despite winter maintenance efforts, your battery's performance may have been affected.
Brakes: Slippery winter roads often result in increased wear on brake pads and rotors, affecting your vehicle's braking ability.
Wiper Blades: Incorrect use of wiper blades during winter can damage them, reducing visibility. Consult with our Toyota Service advisor to select the appropriate wipers for your vehicle for the upcoming season.
We're Here To Help Prepare Your Toyota For Spring
During a spring check-in or regular service appointment, our Toyota Trained Technicians will ensure your vehicle is ready for the season ahead. They'll conduct a comprehensive 12V Battery Health Check, inspect brakes and brake components, and assess wiper blade conditions, recommending replacements if necessary.
MORE WAYS YOU CAN GET READY FOR THE SEASON AHEAD
Switch to All-Season Tires: Consider switching to all-season tires for better traction and handling on warmer pavement when the average daily temperature rises above 7ºC. Our tire experts can inspect your tires for wear and advise on replacements if needed.
