Spring Cleaning: Part 2

Cassels Garage, serving Melbourne, Florida as a full service automotive repair facility, knows spring is in the air! While spring fever, spring break, and spring cleaning all are common vernal terms, we want to throw your automobile into the mix! This time of renewal should include the interior and exterior of your car, and all the nooks and crannies in between. Be sure to read Part One of this blog which includes tips to keep your car sparkling inside and out, running properly, operating safely, and seasonally maintained.

Here are a few more tips we wanted to share. Include these in your spring time car once-over to be thorough in your maintenance and upkeep and ultimate safety.

  • April showers bring May flowers so take this time to check out the condition of your windshield wiper blades and replace them if necessary. Top off your windshield wiper fluid at this time too. Streaks left by old wipers or malfunctioning wipers can impair your vision. So, take the time to access their condition and increase your safety.
  • Check your battery to make sure it is not weak. You can prevent future problems by replacing a weak older battery before it stops working, reducing the chance you will be left stranded with a dead one.
  • Clean up your engine fluids as part of your springtime ritual. To ensure a healthy life for your automobile, change the oil at regular intervals. Check the following fluids: transmission, engine oil, brake and power steering.
  • Check the A/C. Florida spring temperatures are already in the 80’s and scorching summertime temperatures are just around the corner. If you haven’t been running your air conditioner much, it may not be running properly. Best to figure that out before heading back from the beach on spring break! Even if you’re A/C just feels like it’s not cooling as quickly as it used to, bring it in and we will inspect it!

From Audis to Volvos and all makes and models in between, Cassels Garage is ready, willing, and able to tune up your car making it ready for any springtime travel or just in keeping with a spring clean mode!
