Hit the Road This Summer: Essential Summer Car Care Tips from Lexus of Calgary

2023 Lexus RX

Summer is finally here in Calgary! With the warm weather comes the opportunity for road trips, scenic drives, and adventures in the great outdoors. But before you hit the open road, it’s crucial to ensure your Lexus is in peak condition for the season.

At Lexus of Calgary, we’re dedicated to helping you get the most out of your vehicle. That’s why we’ve put together this guide of essential summer car care tips to keep your Lexus performing at its best:

1. Optimize Engine Performance:

  • Oil Change: Schedule a routine oil change with high-quality synthetic oil recommended by Lexus. This ensures optimal lubrication and engine cooling during the hotter summer months.
  • Air Filter Check: A clogged air filter can reduce engine performance and fuel efficiency. Have your air filter inspected and replaced if necessary.

2. Enhance Braking & Handling:

  • Brake Inspection: Ensure your brakes are in good condition with ample pad life and proper fluid levels. Early detection and maintenance can prevent costly repairs down the road.
  • Tire Check: Check your tire pressure regularly, including the spare. Uneven or improper tire pressure can affect handling and fuel economy. It’s also wise to inspect the tread depth for signs of wear and tear.

3. Maximize Cabin Comfort:

  • Air Conditioning System Service( AC Service): Have your air conditioning system checked to ensure it’s functioning properly and blowing cool air. A refreshing cabin is essential for comfortable summer drives.
  • Cabin Air Filter Replacement: A dirty cabin air filter can lead to poor air quality and unpleasant odors. Replacing the filter regularly ensures fresh air circulation inside your Lexus.

4. Prioritize Visibility & Safety:

  • Wiper Blade Check: Ensure your wiper blades are in good condition and can effectively clear rain, dust, and debris from your windshield.
  • Headlight Inspection: Make sure your headlights and taillights are functioning properly for optimal visibility during both day and night drives.
