Six spring car care tips

• 1. Get an oil and filter maintenance service.
  When temperatures rise, condensation builds up.
  That could mean water in your engine. Most city
  drivers engines dont get warm enough to build
  up that condensation, so this quarterly service
  is especially important in the spring to keep
  your engine in good shape.

• 2. Check your engine oil level. Its easy to
  forget to top up your oil, and many drivers go
  all winter without checking their oil level. Now
  that its warmer out, take a few minutes to make
  sure youve got enough oil for your engine to
  perform at its best.

• 3. Check your engine oil weight. At our
  Edmonton car repair shop, we used to use 10W30 in
  the summer and 5W30 in the winter. Today, most
  vehicles can use the manufacturers recommended
  viscosities, including the new 5W20 and 0W20, so
  you might not need to switch. But its best to be
  sure. Ask your Edmonton auto repair technician
  for advice.

• 4. Get a comprehensive vehicle inspection.
  Your vehicle works just as hard when its 20C as
  when its 20C. With a thorough inspection
  performed by a diagnostic technician every 20,000
  kilometres, you can spot problems and prevent
  breakdowns to keep your car healthy all year
  round.

• 5. Change your tires. Drivers are always
  asking, When should I change my winter tires? In
  Edmonton, if you drive less than 20,000
  kilometres per year, you can probably wait until
  May to avoid the tire change rush without wearing
  down your tires. If you drive more than 20,000 km
  per year, getting in sooner will help give you
  the longest life from your tires.

  even better? Computerized AutoPros Edmonton car
