Transition into spring with confidence with tailored maintenance
With spring’s arrival, roads are clearing up, but new challenges arise for your vehicle. Seasonal maintenance and a tire change are essential to ensure optimal performance and safety. At BMW Ste-Agathe, we provide comprehensive maintenance services tailored to your luxury vehicle.
Why change your tires for spring?
Using winter tires in warm weather can lead to premature wear, reduced efficiency, and increased fuel consumption. Winter tires are made from a softer rubber compound that wears down quickly at higher temperatures.
Here are the key reasons why seasonal tire changes are crucial:
Safety first: Summer or all-season tires provide better grip on dry and wet asphalt due to their composition suited for higher temperatures.
Tire Durability: Removing your winter tires once temperatures exceed 7°C extends their lifespan and ensures optimal performance when you reinstall them in the fall.
Better performance and fuel efficiency: Summer tires are designed to reduce rolling resistance, improving fuel efficiency and lowering gas consumption.
Spring maintenance to extend Your BMW’s lifespan
Transitioning to warmer weather is also the perfect time for a full vehicle check-up to prevent mechanical issues and optimize your BMW’s performance. Here are some essential maintenance services to consider:
1. Tire inspection and balancing
Before installing your summer tires, our technicians ensure they are in good condition, properly balanced, and have sufficient tread depth for optimal grip. We also check tire pressure to enhance driving comfort and safety.
2. Wheel alignment
Winter conditions, such as potholes and rough roads, can impact your suspension and alignment. Proper alignment extends tire lifespan and improves your BMW’s stability and handling.
3. Brake and suspension inspection
Months of exposure to salt, ice, and harsh winter conditions can wear down your BMW’s brakes and suspension. A thorough check ensures maximum safety and efficient braking performance.
4. Oil change and filter replacement
Engine oil protects your motor from wear and debris buildup. A spring oil change, along with replacing the oil and air filters, ensures smooth and optimal engine performance.
5. Fluid and air conditioning system check
Spring is the ideal time to check and top up essential fluids (coolant, brake fluid, windshield washer) and inspect the air conditioning system before the summer heat sets in.
