Winter is right around the corner, which means right now is the time to ensure your BMW is in shape to get you where you want to go this winter. As always, our team is here to assist with any and all your service needs! Simply schedule your service appointment online today and skip the line later! However, in this week’s blog, we’ve got some important DIY information for you! The snow weather can have you running into issues down the road, which is why it is important to make sure you’ve got the right tools to get you and your passengers out of any situation, safely. Take a peek at our 12 winter must-have items for your BMW below! And if you’re ready to upgrade to a more reliable vehicle this fall, browse our available inventory now and schedule a test drive today!
Must-Have Winter Accessories:
Ice scraper and snow brush
- With winter right around the corner, it’s crucial to have a sturdy ice scraper and snow brush in your vehicle.
- Whether you’re leaving work, the mall, the grocery store, etc, snow can obstruct your view, and just using your wipers to clear your view can be dangerous for other drivers when the snow flies off at them.
Small/Collapsible shovel
- Keeping a small or collapsible shovel in your truck can be a lifesaver if you find your vehicle stuck in the snow or if you have to clear a path to drive
Gloves, hats, scarves, etc.
- You have the snow brush and shovel, but now you need to actually use them.
- Having extra gloves will be a lifesaver when you have to brush off your vehicle, pump gas, or even change a tire!
Blanket
- Doesn’t everybody have extra blankets lying around at home? Just me? Well, if you have an extra blanket, throw it in your trunk in case you find yourself in an accident having to stand outside, or experience a breakdown in colder temperatures.
Emergency flares or reflectors
- Finding yourself stuck in the snow? Ensure other vehicles can see you with emergency flares or reflectors
Rock salt
- Stuck in the snow? Did ice form around your tires? Gain traction with rock salt, sand, or kitty litter!
- Spread the material near your tires and in your car’s path to get out of a slippery situation.
First aid kit
- This is an all-year-round necessity, but it’s always good to replenish what you need in your first aid kit
- Whether your passenger has a small cut or you’re in an accident and need to be bandaged up, a first aid kit is crucial to this list
Extra windshield washer fluid
- Make sure your windshield washer fluid has antifreeze components to prevent it from freezing. Clearing your windshield with fluid will improve visibility in a winter storm.
Flashlight
- We all know it gets dark very early during the winter months. Having a flashlight in your trunk is always a good idea.
- Whether you need it for maintenance purposes or even to feel safer when walking to and from your vehicle.
Jumper cables
- Cold weather can affect a car’s battery. You can’t start your car if the battery’s dead, which means you won’t be able to use the car’s heater for warmth. Waiting for a jump start in the cold is not fun. You won’t have to wait as long if you have jumper cables with you.
Cell phone charger
- It’s always important to keep your phone charged before hitting the road but with maps, music, and more, your battery can die quickly
- Keep your phone charged up in case you need to make a call for assistance or need your maps for directions
Water and non-perishable snacks
- Breakdowns are never fun and sometimes happen in the worst place. This means if you find yourself stranded, waiting for a tow truck and it might be a while before you get help, having a snack to hold you over is always helpful

Our team of certified professionals are here to help you with any service big or small, in a stress-free, hassle-free environment. So if you’re not into DIY work or you’re just too busy to get your BMW maintenance done in time for when the seasons’ change, schedule your service appointment today! However, if you love getting your hands dirty, we’ve got you covered too! Below you can find set-by-step instructions for your automotive fall cleaning! Take a peek and get started today! Before you know it, your BMW will be shining like new!
Car Battery:
- Pop open your hood and brush away the dust. Fall is a great time to inspect your car battery to ensure there are no issues down the road when the colder weather creeps in!
- Make sure your engine cables and terminals are in good shape and retighten if necessary for good contact.
- Make sure there’s no corrosion or dirt build-up. If this is the case, this would be a good time to disconnect and clean them up.
- If your vehicle is newer and you have a maintenance-free battery with no removable caps, there’s not much for you to do besides peeking around the remainder of your hood to ensure there are no leaks, breaks, or issues.
Headlights:
- Many new vehicles have LED headlights that you can’t just pop out and clean, so you might need scheduled maintenance with our team if this is your situation.
- If you still have non-LED lighting, it’s important to clean/replace your headlights to avoid haziness.
- Clouded headlights can be a safety hazard, compromising night vision, and reducing the effectiveness of your headlights. This is especially dangerous in winter, where conditions are less than favorable and the darkness is more consistent.
- You can purchase a headlight cleaning kit, or use household items such as a toothbrush, baking soda, and the owner’s manual approved products.
Tires:
- Tire maintenance is always a must, not just during the winter months. However, your tires play a crucial role in your vehicle’s winter performance.
- The first thing you should do is to check your tire tread. When your tread is 2/32″ your tires are considered bald and you will need to replace your tires immediately. If your tire tread is above this you’re okay, but should consider replacing soon if it’s closer to balding.
- Most vehicles are purchased with all-season tires, which provide good performance all year round. However, if you live in a very snowy area, we highly suggest purchasing snow tires.
- Once your tires are on and in good condition, we suggest scrubbing away any dirt, grime, or buildup.
Wash & Wax:
- Chances are your vehicle needs good washing after all your summer travel. Between dirt, dead bugs, and even beach sand, your exterior probably isn’t shining like it used to.
- Give your vehicle a good cleaning, this means the top, sides, underneath, and even the tires.
- Once you’ve washed your car, it’s a good idea to wax your vehicle’s exterior. Getting a car wax is a great way to keep your car’s finish looking new.
- Waxing can be tricky, so be sure to check your owner’s manual for safe products from your vehicle or leave it to the pros in our service department!
Wipers:
- Windshield wipers maintenance is regularly overlooked. However, your wipers are extremely important for your vision behind the wheel…especially in the fall and winter months.
- Leaves will be falling very soon, and rain is no stranger to the fall months. This means you’ll need strong wipers to clear the leaves and rain off your windshield.
- Right after the leaves comes the snow, and anyone who has driven in a snowstorm knows how important your winters are.
- If your wipers are leaving streaks of water on your windshield, it’s time to replace or clean them.
- Although drivers rarely change them, wipers break down pretty quickly. In fact, they should be changed every 6-12 months.
Interior:
- It’s time to say goodbye to the trash that’s taken up a vacancy in your car! After traveling all summer long, it’s only normal your interior needs a little pick me up.
- We suggest grabbing a garbage bag, your vacuum cleaner, and some multi-surface cleaner.
- First started by taking everything out, and we mean everything!
- Then, vacuum away crumbs, dust, and whatever else is in there. Don’t forget to clean off whatever item you’ll be putting back in your vehicle.
- Then it’s time to dust, spray down your dash, console, gear shift, radio system, and of course windows!
- Finally, put whatever you’re keeping back inside your cabin in a neat and orderly way, and toss whatever is remaining!

- Research financing options or get pre-approved using our easy to use an online application
How To Test Drive A Car:
- The test drive starts before you take the car out on the road, keep an eye out for dents, cracks, rust, nicks, cracks, etc. especially when test driving a used vehicle
- Check the tires for remaining tread and signs of uneven wear (checking for poor alignment)
- Tryout the turning signals and brake lights
Once You Start The Car:
- Don’t hit the gas just yet! Idle for a minute or two to listen to the engine. Be sure to listen for troubling noises like rattling, clicking, whining
- Turn the radio on and play around with the volume, buttons, and don’t be afraid to ask for assistance with setup. Or have them walk through all the functions with you.
- Check other features like the heat and A/C
- Keep an eye on the dashboard to ensure all the gauges are working properly as the car warms up
- Also, pay attention to your comfort. Are the seats comfortable for long drives? Do you like the material?
Once You Hit The Gas:
- Pay attention to how the vehicle drives in stop and go traffic
- Be sure to ask about the MPG and other driving features
- Don’t be afraid to handle rough roads to see how the vehicle handles
- Ask to hit the highway to see if the vehicle slows and speeds up smoothly
- Listen carefully when you’re driving on the highway. Hear any squeaks, whines, or rattles behind the sound of the engine?
- If possible, drive up and down a hill to verify that the car upshifts and downshifts appropriately

Are you ready to get clean with your vehicle this September?! Well, we’re here to help you with that! This week we have put together a list of easy tips to help you clean out, clean up your ride before we’re in the full swing of the fall season. Check out our tips below and be sure to get out in the driveway this week to clean up your ride. Or if you’re ready to ditch your old ride and upgrade into a new BMW, we can help with that. Schedule an appointment online today or stop in to see our team before the leaves start falling!
Undercarriage Cleaning
- Many car owners always keep the visible parts of their vehicle clean and sparkly. But what about the undercarriage of your vehicle? While your vehicle’s undercarriage is always just inches off the ground, it’s important to clean up and get rid of any road-borne impurities that come in contact with your undercarriage. Especially with slush and road salt quickly approaching in the upcoming winter months. It’s important to clean it well, clean it often.
Exterior Protection
- This is a little easier but still a task that takes a bit of elbow grease to complete and complete right. Impurities that lie hidden in moisture can lead to slowly eating away at your paint job, no matter how good it is. It’s important to ensure your car is waxed periodically and put that protective barrier between your paint and the elements!
Interior cleaning
- Everything you tread on outside of your vehicle always makes its way inside your car at one point or another. While it may be difficult to get out of the vacuum and get into all the nooks and crannies, it’s extremely important to do so. Apart from the feeling that comes from being in a clean interior, you don’t want to find yourself with upholstery damage because you neglected to clean your ride. Get out that vacuum and make it sparkle. And a pro tip, add a new air freshener to freshen up the interior smell of your vehicle!
Upgrade Into A New BMW Today! >> https://www.flemingtonbmw.com/searchnew.aspx
Summer is coming to end sooner than later and before sweeps in it might be a good idea to upgrade to a reliable new BMW from Flemington BMW. Whether this will be your first BMW or you’re a regular BMW shopper, it’s always good to have some tips and tricks up your sleeve when shopping for a new vehicle. Here at Flemington BMW, we always provide our customers with a comfortable and stress-free buying experience. However, we thought it would be good to remind you of five questions you ask before buying a new vehicle – to be sure it’s the right one for you! So take a peek below at our must-ask questions, and shop our online inventory now! Don’t forget the BMW Ultimate Summer On Sales Event is happening now till the end of August, which means the time to buy new is now, at Flemington BMW!
Are there any additional fees?
- We hope it isn’t a shock but when buying a new car, you’ll be paying for more than just the car itself. It’s a good idea to ask what fees you are going to pay and how much they will be. This will cut down on confusion when it’s time for you to sign and drive off the lot with your new Toyota.
What other amenities does the vehicle come with?
- Cars these days come with many gadgets and gizmos and you will want to know what they are before driving off or signing. Why? Well, if the vehicle you’re considering has features that you may not use or want – you probably don’t want to pay for them. Also, on the flip side, if you’re looking for specific features, you’ll want to ask and make sure your new vehicle is equipped with them.
Will you hold the vehicle while I make a decision?
- Of course, we will but we like to put this on here to ensure that you ask and don’t lose out on a great new vehicle that you’ve fallen in love with. We encourage our customers to take the time they need, buying a new vehicle is a big investment and we want you to be sure this is the right option for you!
How long is the warranty and what does it cover?
- Your vehicle is an investment and you will need to take care of that investment. Be sure to ask what type of warranty your vehicle comes with and how long it will last. These warranties will help keep some cash in your wallet when it comes to repairs and maintenance.
