CAR CARE TIPS BEFORE DRIVING THIS FALL IN VANCOUVER, BC

Fall’s driving conditions may not be as tough as winter’s, but we suggest carrying out some preventative maintenance to ensure that you enjoy a stress-free autumn at the wheel. Whether you reside in Vancouver, Burnaby, BC, or beyond, learn more with the following car care tips for fall, and contact Dueck on Marine to book your next appointment with our Service Centre.

Since your wipers will see a lot of action during both the fall and winter, we suggest beginning your fall vehicle maintenance by checking their condition and replacing them if needed, so you can preserve your visibility throughout the season. We also recommend checking your washer fluid, and don’t forget to buy fluid with antifreeze ahead of winter. Additionally, it always helps to have a look at your engine filters and replacing them if they’re due, as your oil and air filters are crucial to optimizing your fuel economy, engine health, performance, and keeping your emissions to a minimum. Checking your battery health and connections is another important part of your fall vehicle maintenance, as car batteries are very vulnerable in colder weather and could cause ignition issues if neglected. Lastly, remember to check your spare tire in case of emergency and ensure that it’s at the recommended pressure, as your spare’s pressure can vary based on temperature and storage location.
