The 10 Must-Do's for Your Vehicle this Winter

1.  Tire inflation is very important.  With ice on its way we need good traction.  Quality well maintained tires are required.

2.  Battery check is highly recommended.  Most battery failure occurs during the harsh winter season.  We can test your battery and charging system detecting weak electrical systems.

3.  Wiper blades.  Visibility is crucial.  We need to see clearly where we are going and oncoming traffic.  Visit us at AUTOBAHN and receive free wiper blades with your  service.

4.  Belts and hoses.  Your vehicle relies on these two items to keep the occupants toasty and the engine at proper temperature.

5.  Emergency kit.  Do not leave home without it.  If you are in need of kit, please contact us for pricing and availability.  Here are the items included in the kit:

• Blanket
• Flash light
• First aid kit
• Jumper cables
• Extra gloves
• Ice scraper and/or small shovel
• Water

6.  Keep AUTOBAHN'S contact information on hand.  If you get stranded on the road, first thing is to call for help.  You can give us a call at AUTOBAHN, 630-492-1258.  Weather your vehicle needs a jump start, flat tire or professional towing service, we will go to you and/or get help for you.  In case of an emergency, call 911.

7.  Fuel system needs to be topped off to prevent freezing.  Additives and fuel filter changes promote anti-freezing of fuel.

8.  Lights on your vehicle need to be properly operating.  Other motorists need to see you.

9.  Keep your vehicle clean inside and out.  At Autobahn you receive complimentary car washes when performing major service.

10.  Fluid and overall inspections.  Now is the time to address any issues.

• Oil service
• Inspection of brake condition
• Any visible fluid leaks
• Loose suspension components
• Cracked, ripped or damaged drive axle boots and/or drive train joints
