While you may be anxiously awaiting your summer road trip, your vehicle may not be prepared. There are some important maintenance tasks that you should complete before hitting the road. Orlando MINI is outlining the MINI Cooper maintenance you need before heading out for your summer vacation.

Top Off Your Fluids

There are many fluids in your vehicle that need to keep it running efficiently, such as your engine oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and more. Make sure that you check the various fluids in your vehicle to ensure they’re at the optimal level. While you can top them off, if you’re due for a replacement, make sure that you replace them instead.

Replace Your Windshield Wipers

Your windshield wipers can get quite a workout on a long road trip, between rain, dusty streets, and all those stray bugs. It’s a good idea to replace your wipers to make sure they can clear your windshield adequately. Don’t forget to fill your windshield wiper fluid as well!

Rotate Your Tires

Rotating your tires is already an important maintenance task because it limits uneven wear. It’s helpful to rotate your tires before a road trip because it can help you avoid a blowout. We’ll also inspect your tires to make sure you have optimal tire pressure and tread for your trip.

Clean Your Vehicle

Cleaning your vehicle is an important part of maintaining it. If your vehicle stays dirty for too long, it can rust and even corrode. A clean cabin can improve your air quality, so make sure that you clean your interior as well.
