If you are seeking Murrayville auto maintenance, GRiP TiRE & Auto Murrayville has some pre-winter maintenance suggestions.

Pre-Winter Murrayville Auto Maintenance

When it comes to pre-winter Murrayville Auto Maintenance, we have some suggestions for getting your vehicle ready.

  • Ensure your vehicle’s exterior paint is protected …although we don’t often have salt on our roads due to temperate conditions; there are times when it is necessary for safe road conditions. Keeping your paint in proper form matters for most auto owners, and these tips on how to ‘Protect Your Vehicle from Road Salt this Winter’ can help.
  • Change to a 5W oil …is usually recommended, but there are synthetic oils that can also withstand colder temperatures as needed.
  • Get your battery checked …to ensure your vehicle remains reliable throughout the winter months
  • Replace your wipers …for visibility
  • Check your antifreeze

In addition, you may want to have your fuel injectors cleaned, your diesel fuel lines checked, and your winter tires installed.

Winter Tires: A Must for Mountain Passes in BC

Don’t forget it is officially winter tire season. And as discussed on our blog: Langley Tire Service: Understanding Winter Tire Requirements in BC

  • A legal winter tire (on a standard passenger vehicle or a four-wheel/all-wheel vehicle) MUST have at least 3.5 mm of tread depth.
  • Winter tires must be labelled with the letters “M” and “S”, the minimum legal requirement (mud + snow/all season tires)
