Preventative Maintenance Tips for the Changing Seasons

February 29th, 2024 by

Maintaining your Jaguar is a year-round practice, but it becomes especially important when the seasons change. As the seasons change, so do the requirements placed on your car.

We’ve put together a list of preventative maintenance tips you should keep in mind as the temperatures change:

Tires:

Your tires will change as the seasons do. Whether you roll on all-seasons or rotate between summer and winter tires, you’ll need a hand getting those swapped out safely to ensure that everything lines up evenly for a smooth and safe drive.

Regular tire maintenance, like alignment and rotation, are important because they affect your vehicle’s braking ability, handling performance and over safety.

Brake Inspection:

The brakes are the most important safety feature on your Jaguar. Ice and snow can harm the performance of your brake system. Once the snow melts, it can add extra moisture and dampness to your brake fluid or brakes. It’s important to schedule a break inspection to ensure everything is working properly.

Heating and Air Conditioning:

When the weather changes, you’re going to want your Jaguar to regulate temperature properly. Whether you’re getting ready for the blistering heat or chill of the winter, seasonal changes are a great time to have your heating and AC system checked.

Our certified technicians will do a visual inspection, check for any leaks or problems with fluids to make sure your vehicle is warm and toasty for the winter and cool and comfortable for the summer.

Tune Up:

If you’re unsure of what maintenance your Jaguar requires a tune-up is a great way to get a good look at your vehicle’s health. Our certified technicians will look at the ignition, battery, engine, and scan for any default codes to make sure your vehicle will get around safely.

The lack of car maintenance is one of the most common reasons for mechanical breakdowns. Jaguar Naperville can help prepare your car for all types of inclement weather. Schedule your service online or call us today.
