Spring is a time of year when many people clean out their homes and car. While it’s important to take care of your belongings, you should also make sure to perform routine maintenance. This can help prevent vehicle-related emergencies and expensive repairs. Here are some tips for maintaining your car in the springtime:

1) Change Oil

2) Clean Interior

3) Inspect Tires

4) Inspect & Replace Brakes

5) Check Air Pressure

Change your oil

In order to keep a car running smoothly and efficiently, it is important to change the oil on a regular basis. Oils break down as they’re used, which can cause parts of the engine not to work well. By changing your oil every 5,000 miles or so, you will be able to keep that from happening.

To avoid potential problems in the future, get your vehicle’s oil changed at least once per year.

Clean your car

The first step to maintaining your car in the springtime is to clean it. This includes vacuuming and scrubbing all of the surfaces, washing and waxing the paint job, and polishing your car’s tires.

Inspect tires

One of the most important things to do during routine maintenance is inspecting and replace tires. This is because tires are one of the most expensive parts on your car. If you have a tire blowout, your car could become inoperable and you may need a tow truck. It’s also important to make sure that you have enough air pressure in your tires because they will wear faster when they’re running low on air. Additionally, when there’s less air in the tire, it increases the risk of a blowout.

Inspect and replace brakes

Brakes are a major safety feature on your car. These components help you stop the vehicle and maintain control. However, you should check and replace your brakes every 25,000 miles or around once a year. Brakes wear down over time so it’s important to inspect them for any damage or wear.

Inspecting the brake pads is one way of checking for damage to these components. You can also look at the rotors which are the metal discs that act as an interface between the brake pad and rotor hat. The term “brake dust” refers to the accumulation of dirt, moisture, oil, and oxidation on these parts which decreases their effectiveness. If you notice brake dust on your rotors then you should have them inspected by a mechanic as soon as possible because this may mean that they need repair or replacement.

If you don’t want to wait until it’s too late to take care of your brakes, make sure to have them inspected during routine maintenance in springtime!

Check air pressure

Air pressure is one of the most important things to check for in your car. It’s a good idea to have this checked by a professional each time you go in for an oil change, but it can also be helpful to check it yourself and fill it up regularly.

If you notice that your tire pressure isn’t what it should be, there are a few ways to fix this. You could take the tire off and put air in it, or use a compressor or portable air tank and plug into the valve stem. If you don’t want to do either of those options, there are also many gas stations and auto parts stores with air pumps.

The easiest way to check your air pressure is by using an inflatable gauge that plugs directly into the valve stem (found at most gas stations). These gauges will show how much pressure your tires have currently and what they should be set at. They’re easy to use and can help you avoid any vehicle-related emergencies!
