WINTER TIPS

PRESSURE DROP
Cold weather can cause more than the barometer to drop. The pressure in your tires will also drop. We have found that in our personal cars it has been as much as 12 pounds. Low tire pressure mean more fuel consumption. Your cars handling is also affected by low tire pressure. It is important to check your tire pressures regularly. At Importech we check your tire pressures during our oil change service as part of our free services to you, our customers.

WINTER WARM UP
Getting into your car first thing on a cold morning all you want is heat and fast. Do not just crank the heat up to full right away. Why? Because by doing so you are making the coolant circulate more. This makes the warm up process take more time. Wait until the temperature gauge starts to move then switch the heat on.
