As winter gives way to warmer weather, spring is the ideal time to catch up on Chevrolet maintenance. Seasonal changes can take a toll on your vehicle, and a few simple steps can help ensure everything runs smoothly in the months ahead. The Phelps Chevrolet team can get you on the right track.

Schedule an Oil Change

Start with an oil change if you’re due for one. Fresh oil helps your engine run efficiently and reduces wear over time. While you’re at it, it’s a good idea to have your filters checked and replaced if needed. Clean air and cabin filters can improve engine performance and cabin comfort.

Maintain or Replace Your Tires

Tire maintenance is another priority. Inspect for wear, check your tire pressure, and consider rotating your tires if it’s been a while. Proper tire care not only improves fuel efficiency but also helps maintain traction as road conditions shift with the seasons.

Service or Replace Your Battery

Don’t forget about your battery. Cold weather can weaken battery performance, and spring is a good time to test its charge. A weak battery could leave you stranded, especially as temperatures begin to rise.

Get New Wipers and Fluid

Wiper blades and windshield washer fluid are often overlooked but are essential during spring showers. Ensure your wipers are in good condition and that your fluid is topped off for optimal visibility.

Clean Your Car

Finally, give your vehicle a good wash, including the undercarriage. Road salt and grime from winter driving can lead to corrosion if not removed. A clean exterior helps protect your investment and keeps your Chevrolet looking its best.
