Winter is tough on your vehicle. Now that the weather is warming up it's time to perform some important maintenance to keep things running smoothly. Routine maintenance Now that winter is in the rearview mirror, schedule a service checkup with our Toyota Service Center. Your appointment doesn’t have to be a scheduled service interval visit. Let the expert techs perform a thorough check of your vehicle’s fluids, tire pressure and treads, battery and engine/transmission systems. Fresh clean oil and other fluids ensure that your engine, transmission and drivetrain run smoothly. Winter takes a toll on your battery After winter, your car battery might be on its deathbed. Low temperatures forced your battery to work harder by slowing down its chemical reactions. Now, high temperatures are right around the corner, ready to evaporate essential battery fluids and speed up corrosion. There's a chance that one hot day could leave your battery DOA. Avoid the inconvenience of a car that won't start by getting your car battery tested and if necessary, replaced, before it’s too late. Tires Check your tire pressure in the morning, and adjust your tires based on that reading. Your tire pressure should match the recommended tire pressure in your vehicle manual. In general, tires lose or gain 1 PSI (pound per square inch) for every 10℉ change in temperature, and both under-inflated and over-inflated tires can cause problems on the road. Our Toyota Service Center will check your tire's tread depth and wear patterns as well, and recommend tire rotation and/or replacement. Wiper blades and wiper fluids Winter ice and debris are not your wiper blades friends. Our Service Center will replace them for a clean, streak-free windshield. Top off your washer fluid as well.
