Spring Car Care Tips
With springtime now in full bloom, we thought we’d share a few care care tips to help keep your Mazda in top shape this spring.
The most important and most obvious starting place is performance of routine maintenance as indicated by your Mazda owner’s manual. This includes changing the oil and flushing of other fluids among other things.
Next, replace your wiper blades and filters. This could include your air filter, oil filter, or fuel filter among a few others that have become clogged or dirty beyond cleaning.
Also check that your tires are ready for springtime's heat and rain. Winter and snow aren't friendly to cars, especially the tires, and can cause low tire pressure which might result in unbalanced tread wear.
Finally, make sure your engine is good to go. This means your serpentine belt is tight and your car is starting easily and running smoothly at idle. A few causes for these problems relate to electrical malfunctions, be it in the ignition or sensors. Also be sure to make your A/C is functioning properly as it can effect your Mazda’s cooling abilities.
