When you have completed any do-it-yourself tasks, schedule Volvo service to allow our certified technicians to perform an inspection and verify all systems are go for winter.
Check Your Tires
Check your winter tires. Visually inspect your tires for wear, and make sure the treads are substantial to ensure safety in winter road conditions. Uneven wear is another red flag and could mean malalignment. If in doubt, have our service department professionals inspect the tires. Consider service or replacements if necessary.
Check Your Wiper Blades
Visually inspect your wiper blades to make sure they are in good condition. Harsh winters will require more frequent replacements because winter road conditions can wreak havoc on the rubber components. Replace your wiper blades before your windshield ices over.
Get an Oil Change
Even if it is not quite time for your periodic maintenance which includes an oil and filter change, a fresh oil change goes a long way. Our Volvo service department can perform an oil and filter change to give you a fresh start on winter preparation. Oil changes help lubricate engine parts to keep them from freezing up and make your vehicle run smoother and more efficiently.
Check All Fluids
Fluids such as coolant, brake fluid, and transmission fluid are paramount to keeping your vehicle running in tip-top shape. Check all fluids and replenish or replace them if needed.
