Summer Maintenance Tips

Air Conditioner Inspection

---

The A/C system requires frequent cleaning and inspection to ensure it is performing at its best. The assessment of the A/C system includes checking the air filter, refrigerant pressure, signs of corrosion, and more. Based on the inspection, we can perform various services to keep the A/C system running efficiently. For new refrigerant or filters, we offer high-quality and fully compatible OEM products for Volkswagen models.

 

Cooling System Check

---

We can check the condition of the coolant, fan belt, hoses, cooling fan, radiator, water pump, and other parts of the cooling system. A properly functioning cooling system is key to protecting the components under the hood from overheating. This becomes even more important during the high temperatures of summer.

 

Tire Inspection

---

As part of preparing your vehicle for summer, the tires need a complete inspection service checking the inflated pressure and tread depth. The tire rubber can be vulnerable to cracking or wearing out at a faster rate during summer. Certain tire services can help improve the condition of your tires, and in some cases, a tire replacement service might be necessary for your Volkswagen.

 

Battery Testing

---

The car battery requires extra attention during harsh weather conditions. The hot temperatures of summer can accelerate corrosion inside the car battery. If your vehicle has a wet battery, the water in the electrolyte inside of the battery can suffer from evaporation in summer. We can test the battery to determine if a battery replacement service is required.

 

External Lights Inspection

---

For the safe operation of your Volkswagen and the safety of others on the road, it is vital to have properly functioning external lights, including the headlights, taillights, and high beams. These lights can suffer from electrical issues, brightness problems, burnt-out bulbs, and other issues. We can check and fix any issues with the lights of your vehicle.

 

Engine Check

---

The engine is the heart of your vehicle and requires frequent maintenance services. An engine check includes inspection of the engine air filter, oil filter, and condition of the motor oil, spark plugs, PCV valve, and other parts.
