by having your car ready for winter conditions. Here's how you can effectively winterize your vehicle. When your winter preparations include vehicle maintenance, call G2 Automotive in Cumming, GA for an appointment.

Get Your Battery Tested
Your car's battery has to work harder as the temperature drops, especially if it's left outside. To avoid a dead battery on a chilly morning, have your battery tested as soon as you can. It is simpler to get a replacement battery now rather than wait until you are in a difficult situation if your battery is almost at the end of its usable life.

Get an Oil Change
If your vehicle is getting close to needing an oil change, don’t delay making an appointment. As the temperature gets colder, oil gets thicker. If it becomes too thick, it doesn’t do as good of a job lubricating the engine. It’s best to get a synthetic oil replacement with a W rating, meaning it is ideal for winter temperatures. G2 uses top quality synthetic oil and OEM filters.

Fill Your Tires
Tires need extra air when the temperature drops. Tires lose one pound of pressure for every 10- degree drop in temperature. Tires consequently lose traction. The risk of hydroplaning increases when a vehicle's tires are underinflated on slick surfaces. To avoid accidents, keep your tires' air pressure at the recommended level.
