Thinking of ways to keep you BMW happy and healthy during this winter season? Don’t stress. Just follow our tips below to ensure the health of your BMW these next few months! Whether you’ve stayed on top of your routine maintenance or you’ve forgotten about it, we encourage you to stop in and schedule a service appointment to have your ride checked up on! Let’s get started! Swap out regular tires for tires designed for winter weather. Snow or not, if you will be traveling to areas where the temperatures fall below 45 degrees, you’ll want to have winter tires. These tires are designed to give better traction while traveling on the cold pavement. Check your tire pressure regularly. Driving around on uninflated tires can cause them to wear at a quicker rate and will affect the traction on slippery surfaces. With every 10-degree drop, your tires will lose a pound of pressure. Always keep a half tank full of gas. No matter the weather it’s a great idea to ensure that you have enough gas in case of an emergency. This is especially in the winter as winter weather starts to take a toll on our vehicles and we could end up in a snowy situation. Add a protective layer to your vehicle. Salt, grime, snow, sleet, and more can cause damage to your vehicle. We recommend adding a coat of polymer wax to create a buffer to keep your vehicle safe. Also, wash off any buildup after winter storms. Protect your wipers at all costs. When parking outdoors, leave your wipers raised to prevent them from freezing to your windshield. And never use your wipers to remove snow or ice from your windshield, use an ice scraper instead. Schedule Your Service Appointment Here!

Your guide to getting your home for the holiday season is right here on this week’s blog! Whether you’ve already completed these tasks or not, we want to help ensure that you and your family have a safe and happy holiday season! So let’s get started on your holiday preparations. Clean out your heating system We’re sure by now your heating system has been working hard to keep you and your family warm. It’s also important to have a professional clean out your heating unit to ensure that it is functioning properly. Also, do not store any items in front, near, or around your heating unit. Check up on your water heater Like your heating system, we’re sure you are going to use your water heater this holiday season and it’s important to make sure everything is in proper working condition. Plus, these need to be drained periodically. Feel for those cool drafts Even the smallest of drafts can bring a shiver to you during the winter months. It’s important to make sure all exterior doors, windows, and other openings are totally sealed. Even think about investing in door cushions that are placed at the bottom of the door to keep cool air from coming into your home. Clean your fireplace While temperatures will be dropping, you’ll be firing up that fireplace and it’s very important to have a professional clean out your fireplace and chimney. A dirty chimney and fireplace can lead to issues that can be disastrous. Check on your roofing Unless you previously know you have a leaky roof, it’s time to ensure that your roof is in proper working condition. We encourage hiring a professional to come take a look and take care of any issues you may have. Put seasonal items away for the winter While getting ready for the holidays, it’s time to put all of your pool floats, lawn furniture and more away for the season. (Hopefully, you’ve already done this but if not, do so before the winter really takes over your yard) Ready to get things started? We sure hope you are! One last thing, don’t forget about your vehicle. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your ride, stop on by right here at Flemington BMW and let our team help match you with the perfect BMW for your budget and lifestyle! We hope to see you soon! A New BMW Means Less Stress!

We know one of the most stressful things about showing up to the family holiday party is not knowing what you are going to talk about. If you haven’t seen some of your family in quite some time, this can be rather difficult. Or maybe there is a large age gap in between that can sometimes make it hard to conversate. Well, that’s a thing of the past this holiday season with our ice breakers. We encourage you to use these questions when you sit down to the table and enjoy a heartfelt conversation with someone you love this holiday season! What was the best movie or TV show you saw this year? If you had an extra hour in every day, how would you spend it? Which is your favorite month, and why? What are you most thankful for this year? Who is the funniest person at the table and why? If you could be famous for something, what would it be? If you could have named yourself, what name would you have picked? If you could only eat three things for the rest of your life, what would they be? What’s your most favorite dad joke of all time? If you were an animal, what would you be? So, you have the questions you’re going to ask and you’re ready to tackle the turkey dinner. But what about your ride? Is your ride ready to tackle the holiday season? If not, swing by to see our team for some amazing incentives. And right now the Road Home BMW Sales Event is happening which means slipping behind the wheel has never been easier. Hurry on by and let’s roll up to the party in a new BMW! Show Up In A New BMW!

Fall is here and conditions are changing. Sometimes those fall conditions come with wet and muddy situations and in some cases, you might find yourself stuck in the mud. And if you do find yourself here, do you know how to get your vehicle back on the road and out of the mud? If not, we have you covered because this week we’re diving deep into the mud (just kidding) but we are focusing on how to free your vehicle from the muck. Check it out below and as always, be careful out there on the roadway! No one wants to get stuck so if you see mud, beware! If you feel your vehicle beginning to sink or becoming stuck - don’t stop. Continue a constant pressure on the gas pedal. Hopefully, this will be the only thing you need to do to get out of the mud. You’ll want to avoid bringing your vehicle to a complete stop, your vehicle will be stuck and you’ll have to take other extensive measures to get out. Sorry, Charlie! Rock it back and forth - literally. Once you’re stuck, you’re stuck and it’s time to do some maneuvering. While gently pressing on your gas pedal, shift between drive and reverse. This will begin to create a rocking motion and may free your vehicle. If you’re not free after a few times, move on. Adding traction increases your chances of getting unstuck greatly. Whether you are willing to use your floor mats, blankets, extra clothing you have in your vehicle or random items like leaves, sticks or rocks - traction is the reason you’re stuck and you need to regain that traction to get out of the mud. Place your items in front of your tires and slowly accelerate. If you have a few passengers, asking them to push might be a good idea! Dig it out! If you keep a small shovel in your vehicle, you’re a genius. If not, you’re probably part of the majority. Regardless, you want to try to dig out the mud from around your tires and try to create a clean, clear path back to solid ground. Once your path is clear, hop in and gently accelerate. If this doesn’t seem to work, it might be time to phone a friend! Stay Out Of The Mud With New Tires!

Service is important this season and at Flemington BMW, we want to encourage you to stop in, service with us, and let our team treat your BMW to service that it truly deserves! Winter is quickly approaching and that means your vehicle could be put through some extreme conditions. Let’s avoid breakdowns and keep your vehicle happy and healthy. Check out these five must-have services for October and be sure to schedule your service appointment online or over the phone today! Dirty filters - if you have a hard time breathing when behind the wheel, it could be due to old and dirty air or engine filters. Filters should be swapped out each time you receive an oil change. Doing so will keep things like pollen, dirt, and allergens from making their way into your cabin. Windshield wipers - when behind the wheel you want to be able to see clearly when need be. And if your wipers are old, broken, and crummy - they are basically useless and can put you in harm’s way. We recommend changing these every 6 months & choose wipers for specified seasons. Oil Change - of course, this one should be obvious but sometimes we forget in our busy hectic lives. We recommend having your oil changed every 3k to 5k miles. And your vehicle’s owner’s manual will be able to give you a better estimate of best practices for your specific vehicle. PSI Check - your vehicle’s tire pressure is very important no matter what season it is. It’s very important your PSI is at proper levels and it’s easy to check & fill up. We recommend checking in the morning for a more accurate read or when they have properly cooled after a long trip. Tire tread - again, another tire service that could really lead to dangerous situations if you’re not paying attention to the tread. If your tires are balding or hardly have any tread left, it’s time to upgrade and the team here at Flemington is ready to help you! Schedule Your Next Service Appointment Today!
