Seasonal changes place different demands on your car and many breakdowns happen due to things that could have been spotted early. Segensworth Automobiles carries out year round servicing and safety checks to keep your car reliable whatever the weather brings.
Winter checklist
Battery health
Cold weather reduces battery output and older batteries often fail in winter. If your car is slow to start have the battery tested.
Tyres
Good grip is essential. Make sure pressures and tread depth are healthy.
Wipers and screen wash
Use winter grade wash and replace wipers if they smear or chatter.
Lights
Shorter days mean more night driving. Check bulbs and clean the lenses.
Summer checklist
Coolant and engine fluids
Higher temperatures increase the risk of overheating. Ensure coolant levels and mix are correct.
Air conditioning
A service keeps the system cool and prevents stale smells caused by trapped moisture.
Tyres
Heat accelerates wear. Inspect for cracks bulges and low tread.
Brakes
Summer trips with passengers or holiday luggage place extra strain on the braking system.
