It’s a thrill to hop in your luxurious European vehicle and hit the open road. But before you leave, you’ll want to make sure your car is ready to perform safely and smoothly during your adventure. At L&S MotorWerks, we can complete auto maintenance in Elk Grove to get your Euro car prepared for your journey. Here’s a look at six important maintenance tasks before a road trip.
Your brakes are your first line of defense in emergency situations, so it's crucial to have them inspected before embarking on a long journey. A professional brake inspection can detect any issues with brake pads, rotors, or brake fluid levels that may compromise your vehicle's stopping power.
Oil is the lifeblood of your vehicle's engine, lubricating its moving parts and enabling smooth operation. Before hitting the road, it's crucial to have fresh oil and a clean oil filter. A professional oil change can help to optimize engine performance, which can improve fuel-efficiency during your trip.
Before you leave, ensure that your tires are properly inflated to the manufacturer's specifications and inspect them for signs of wear and tear, such as uneven tread wear or bulges. Properly inflated and maintained tires provide better traction, stability, and fuel-efficiency.
Your vehicle relies on various fluids to operate efficiently, including coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and power steering fluid. Low fluid levels or degraded fluids can lead to serious problems on the road. Before you go, be sure fluids are checked and topped-off as needed.
Clear visibility is critical for optimal safety. This makes it important to check lights including headlights, turn signals, and brake lights. Bulbs should be replaced as needed. Also, worn wiper blades should be changed out before you go.
Before setting off, have your battery checked by a professional to ensure it’s in healthy condition. A dead battery can create a major inconvenience, so batteries that are at the end of their lifespan or in poor condition should be replaced before departure.
