They say April showers bring May flowers. The spring season heralds the arrival of warmer weather and new growth. It's also a time of preparation, and the folks at our dealership want to remind you that now is the right moment to start thinking about spring maintenance for your vehicle. Winter in Westminster, Colorado, can be hard on engines and other automotive components. To ensure things are in optimal shape as you gear up for outdoor activities and summer road trips around Arvada and beyond, we recommend you schedule spring service for your Volvo vehicle at Sill-TerHar Volvo Cars. Learn more about the maintenance schedule for your vehicle and what you should prioritize today.
Oil and Filter Change
A fresh filter and oil change is one vehicle maintenance task you don't want to neglect. Check your owner's manual for the exact service recommendations for your vehicle model. Over time, oil can break down and becomes dirty, making it less effective at lubricating engine parts. In turn, this can lead to your engine overheating and poor performance.
Battery Testing
A quick diagnostic test can tell us if your battery has been significantly drained after enduring a harsh Boulder winter. This simple maintenance task can save you a great deal of inconvenience.
Tire Care
Those April showers can also bring slippery roads. You'll want to check your tires to be sure there's plenty of tread left and that they are properly inflated. If you have winter tires on your vehicle, we recommend swapping them out. Otherwise, you may be risking your safety. We can install a new set of tires if yours have seen excessive wear, too.
Wiper Blade Replacement
New wiper blades will ensure optimal visibility in the sunny, rainy days ahead. Your current blades might have cracked or split in the cold weather. Don't forget to top off the fluid as well.
Schedule Volvo Service
Spring is the perfect opportunity to give your vehicle a service refresh to be sure it's road-ready for the warmer months ahead in Denver. Follow your owner's manual guidelines to determine which of these or other services you need. We recommend scheduling spring service online or by phone as soon as possible to avoid potential automotive problems putting a damper on your spring schedule.
