If you ask friends and family to name their favourite time of year, it is very likely that many of them will say the autumn.\u00a0 It\u2019s not hard to understand why, with the beautiful variations in colour of the leaves, the chance to get back into cosy sweaters and the opportunity to eat warming soups and stews.\u00a0 We typically think about preparing our cars for the ravages of the winter months and then spring cleaning them when we\u2019re through the worst of the winter weather. But what about preparing your car for the autumn? We\u2019ve put together 4 simple car\u00a0care suggestions to keep your car in tip-top shape, so you can enjoy the beauty of the autumn season when you’re out on the road.<\/span><\/p>\n

Autumn car car<\/h2>\n

Deal with debris<\/strong>.<\/span>
\nAlthough leaves may be one of the highlights of this time of year, they can cause havoc with your vehicle. If you regularly park under or near trees, ensure that your car is cleared of leaves and other debris before setting out so that your vision isn\u2019t impeded, your air filters don\u2019t get clogged, and your paintwork isn\u2019t affected.\u00a0 As the weather turns wetter, be aware of an increase in mud and grit that can also affect your car’s paintwork.<\/span><\/p>\n

Check components are in good working order.
\nHeater<\/strong>.\u00a0 Check that your car\u2019s heating system is working properly so that you can de-mist your windscreen on the frosty mornings ahead.<\/span>
\n Wipers<\/strong>.\u00a0 Ensure your wipers are in good condition and are working properly.\u00a0 Seasonal storms tend to be more frequent at this time of the year, and you want to be able to see clearly in heavy <\/span>rain storms.<\/span>
\n Tyres<\/strong>.\u00a0 Do a visual check to make sure your tyres are still in good shape and have sufficient tread depth. Follow up by checking tyre pressure.<\/span>
\n Brakes<\/strong>.\u00a0 Make sure that brakes are in good working condition.<\/span><\/p>\n

Replenish supplies in your boot<\/strong>.<\/span>
\nNow is the time to check that you have sufficient de-icer in the boot of your car. Why not also add a torch, a waterproof jacket and a blanket in case of emergencies?<\/span><\/p>\n

Protect the interior<\/strong>.<\/span>
\nWith rain, mud and leaves being tracked into your car (often on a daily basis), it can be difficult to keep the interior clean.\u00a0 Consider installing vehicle-specific rubber mats<\/a>, to keep your car\u2019s carpet clean and dry with a full coverage fit. We hear Travall\u00a0offers a terrific range…<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
