A weak battery can stay unnoticed until the morning your car will not start. Before colder weather settles in, it is a good time to have your battery checked, especially if starts have been slower or you are unsure of its condition.

A quick battery test can give you a better idea of where things stand before you are dealing with a no-start morning.

Book a battery test at your nearest Minit-Tune. ๐Ÿ”‹

Oil changes are easy to remember. But what about all the other fluids under the hood?

Coolant. Brake fluid. Transmission fluid. Differential fluid. Power steering fluid. They donโ€™t all follow the same maintenance schedule, and some newer vehicles donโ€™t even use certain fluids.

One important distinction: checking, topping up, changing and flushing a fluid are not the same thing.

And if a fluid that normally shouldnโ€™t disappear keeps getting low, simply topping it up may be masking a leak or another issue.

Our latest Fluid Check 101 guide breaks down what the major fluids actually do, when they typically need attention, and the warning signs that something may be overdue.

Wiper blades usually last around 6-12 months, but weather, exposure and use can wear them down sooner. If you're seeing streaks, skipping or chattering, it may be time for a
new set.

Don't wait for the first heavy downpour to find out yours aren't clearing the windshield properly.
