Between visits to the Mercedes-Benz service center or just the car wash, drivers know that there are many different ways of caring for your luxury vehicle. Taking care of your ride may come as second nature to some drivers, but others may still be in the dark. Here are three ways you can care for your vehicle outside of the service center.
Check Tire Pressure
Tire pressure may seem insignificant to some drivers, but it can have severe effects on your vehicle’s fuel consumption and suspension. Over or under-pressured tires can lead to overconsumption of fuel and premature tire wear, and can ultimately lead to damage to your vehicle’s suspension.
A quick check of your vehicle’s tire pressure can help drivers stay on top of the problem by letting them know when a trip to the local air pump is required.
Replace Cabin Air Filter
This one may seem a bit more involved but replacing your vehicle’s air filter can be done from the comfort of your own garage. Check out your vehicle’s manual to determine what kind of filter your vehicle uses, then order a replacement or schedule an installation from our Mercedes-Benz service center. This quick fix can vastly improve your vehicle’s air condition and heating.
Drive With Care
It may be exhilarating to burn a little rubber with your vehicle, but it can take a toll on its overall health. Taking corners too hard, flooring the accelerator, and slamming on the brakes can add up to some costly repairs if done repeatedly. In the end, if you take care of your vehicle, it will take care of you in return!
Remember, when it comes to caring for your vehicle, no task is too small! It’s never too late to start taking care of your vehicle, so be sure to start today. Don’t let car issues impede your day, express auto service at Mercedes-Benz of Silver Spring will have you back on the road in no time!
