With the information below, we will help you identify the key services at Fox Volkswagen in Rochester Hills, MI that your Volkswagen needs for the spring. Let’s take an inside look at the services you should schedule for spring vehicle preparation.
What Services Do You Need to Schedule for Spring?
In order to help you understand which services you should focus on for your spring vehicle preparation near Farmington Hills, we’re going to focus on three major categories: cleanliness, performance and safety.
Cleanliness
Many of you know that winter weather can create messy outside conditions that you can carry over to your Volkswagen vehicle. Salt, dirt, debris and water from melted snow can stain and dirty both the interior and exterior of your Volkswagen. As such, scheduling full-detail services for your vehicle can ensure that your car gets a thorough cleansing of all the debris and dirt that the winter can bring.
In addition to optimizing your Volkswagen’s appearance, a full detail can provide an initial inspection of your Volkswagen that can help you identify small problems such as cracked windows, erosion and other minor damage issues. By identifying these small problems, you can repair them before they develop into more serious and costly problems.
Performance
The harsh winter conditions near Troy can present your Volkswagen with an increased amount of stress and exposure to wear and tear. Moreover, you may have performed certain preparatory measures for the winter that you need to readjust for the warmer spring weather. Because of this, you need to ensure that a variety of your Volkswagen’s performance components are in good condition for the upcoming spring.
The key components that you want to check for spring vehicle maintenance are your battery, engine, brakes and transmission. First, you want to schedule an inspection for all of the fluids within your vehicle, including engine oil, coolant, and transmission and brake fluids. You’ll want to replace any fluids that are below the optimal levels, and an oil change is recommended to ensure that your engine oil is clean.
In addition, you want to schedule brake and tire service to inspect for damage and perform any necessary replacements. If you installed winter tires, you might get them replaced with all-season tires to accommodate the new weather conditions. Your battery is also a key focus for spring maintenance, and you should schedule services to inspect the condition of your battery and connection ports. You’ll also want to recharge or replace your battery if necessary. Additionally, you should schedule an inspection for all of your engine components and sign off on any necessary repairs your engine needs.
Safety
Many of the performance services that you need to schedule for spring vehicle preparation will also help you maintain optimal safety out on Warren roads. However, there are some additional maintenance procedures you want to schedule to complete your safety preparation. Visibility is critically important for safe driving, and you want to focus on services that help you maintain it. Inspecting your wiper blades and replacing them if damaged will help you maintain visibility during spring rain. Additionally, scheduling service for your lights will not only ensure that you can see in dark conditions, but it will ensure that you are visible to other drivers.
In addition to visibility, you’ll want to schedule an HVAC service to replace your cabin air filters and repair any problems your HVAC system might have. This will help minimize the presence of outside debris, allergens, pollutants and other unwanted particles in your interior air.
