Drive Safe this Winter with a 65 Point Written Vehicle Inspection Report

Make sure you stay safe on the roads this winter with a comprehensive 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report, available for free with every service at Allround Tire Mart Ulladulla. Our team of highly qualified mechanics will visually inspect the crucial components of your vehicle and provide you with a detailed written report outlining the condition of your car.

Safe winter driving tips

In addition to this thorough inspection, there are several other steps you can take to ensure your car is prepared for winter driving conditions.

Making it clear

It's essential to keep your wiper blades in top condition, as they can become less effective over time. We recommend investing in a high-quality wiper blade like Trico, which will help you maintain clear visibility no matter what the weather conditions may be. Our team can assist you in selecting the right wiper blade or assembly for your specific make and model.

Keep it fluid

Fluids and other parts of your car can also be impacted by cold weather, including coolants, oils, and glow plugs in diesel vehicles. Regular servicing is crucial to maintain your car in top condition, especially when performed by a professional technician who understands the correct products and parts needed for Australian conditions. At Allround Tire Mart Ulladulla, we use only high-quality NGK glow plugs and Penrite oils and fluids.

Could you stop in time?

It's also essential to pay attention to your brakes and tires during the winter months. Signs that your brakes may need attention include vibrating, spongy or slow-responding brake pedals, strange sounds, or difficulty handling the vehicle when applying pressure to the brakes.

Inspect your Tyres

Finally, be sure to inspect your tyres regularly to ensure they have plenty of tread and are inflated correctly. Worn or improperly inflated tyres can be extremely dangerous, and can impact both fuel efficiency and stopping distance. Manufacturers' recommendations for tyre pressure can usually be found on a panel inside the driver's side door.

Drive to the conditions

When driving in winter conditions, it's important to always drive to the road conditions. This means slowing down in wet weather or poor visibility, and leaving a larger than normal stopping distance between your vehicle and the one in front. To ensure your car is up to the task, we recommend booking in for a service or 65 Point Vehicle Inspection Report as soon as possible.

By taking these steps and staying vigilant about your car's maintenance needs, you can drive safe and with confidence this winter with Allround Tire Mart Ulladulla and Repco Authorised Service.
