Change Your Oil
Regular maintenance of your Volvo can help to prevent any car troubles during winter driving. Cold weather tends to thicken the oil and reduce its ability to circulate through the engine, so make sure that you have fresh oil to keep your car running smoothly.
Oil changes with us are easy. With Patrick Direct, we offer online appointment scheduling and Volvo loaners while your car is being serviced.
Check Your Battery
To avoid a dead car battery on a cold morning, bring your Volvo to our team of certified Volvo Mechanics to see if your battery is healthy. As a certified Volvo dealer, we specialize in vehicle inspections.
Replace Windshield Wipers
Winter-specific wipers are much more sturdy and designed to sweep away snow, ice, hail, and rain during inclement weather.
Signs your Volvo Windshield Wipers need to be replaced:
1. The rubber on the blades is cracked or failing
2. Your wipers are leaving streaks on your windshield
3. You’re hearing too much squeaking and chattering
4. The frame of the blade is bent or damaged
5. The rubber adhesive is failing, and the blades aren’t making consistent contact with your windshield
