Be Sure Of Your Winter Check-Up On Your Car
Motorists plan winter car care by changing lubricants at the crankcase transmission housing and rear axle. Winter lubricants are designed to stay fluid in cold weather while summer grades thicken, so the oil flows and protects engines despite low temperatures.
Winterizing your car with proper oil and flushing
The article urges draining summer oil before cold weather, flushing the crank case, and refilling with the manufacturer’s winter oil. It stresses removing dirt and moisture to prevent sludge, and applying correct lubricants to transmission gears, rear axle, and other lubrication points including bearings, steering, shackles, brakes, and the fan.
