Flemington BMW

Mar 17, 2021

Welcome back to another week of helpful BMW information! This week we are discussing all things spring service! Spring will officially be here at the end of the week and that probably means that you’re thinking about taking a road trip or an adventure behind the wheel of your beloved BMW. Before you hit the road, we encourage you to hurry in and have your vehicle serviced. The winter season is known for doing damage to your vehicle and it’s important to get the green light from our service team before hitting the road! Let’s get started on those springtime service tips! 
Wash Your Ride 

  • As temperatures are warming up, it’s important to visit the car wash and treat your vehicle to a little TLC. Make sure to wash the undercarriage of your vehicle to get rid of any winter buildup and debris. It’s also a great idea to have the interior of your vehicle detailed to ensure a fresh, clean start to spring. 

Check Your Battery 

  • Wintertime is known for making batteries weak and it’s important to have your battery tested to ensure its health. Also, if your battery is older than four years old, it’s a good rule of thumb to invest in a new one.

Fill Up The Fluids 

  • During the winter, your vehicle’s fluids tend to drain easily and quickly. And with spring around the corner, you should be stopping in to have your fluids topped off and be sure you have plenty of windshield washer fluid too. 

Inspect & Align Your Tires 

  • Winter driving can be brutal on your tires and it’s important to ensure that there are no leaks, bulges, and lack of tread on your tires. Stop in and allow our team to inspect your tires, fill up to proper PSI levels, rotate and align them. 

Get Under The Hood 

  • While we’re at it, pop open the hood (when cold) and give everything underneath a good look over. Inspect hoses, belts, caps, air filters, and make sure they are not cracked or damaged. If they are, be sure to schedule an appointment and have them replaced as soon as possible. Also, make sure your air filters are replaced so your air conditioning is ready when warm weather is officially here.
