Prepping Your BMW Vehicle for Cold Weather and Snowy Roads

With the first hints of winter finally appearing, it's time - past time, actually! - to consider prepping your BMW vehicle for winter. If you haven't scheduled your regular maintenance, now is the time to do so. Of course, if you're a seasoned veteran of winter driving, you also know that, in addition to service, there are a few things that you can do to ensure that your vehicle makes it through the winter. In this post, we're going to discuss a few - relatively - quick and easy ways that you can prep your vehicle for cold weather and snowy roads.

Check your filters

If you suspect that your BMW's filters need replacing, now is the time to check. Whether air or fuel, your car's filters ensure that your engine stays clean.

Read your owner's manual

With a luxury BMW vehicle, it can be tough to stay on top of the small, easily forgotten maintenance tasks. Your car's owner's manual is a roadmap to ensuring that it runs smoothly, regardless of inclement conditions.

Test the heating system

To ensure visibility, make sure that your BMW's heating and defrosting systems are working as expected. Without them, you'll be staring at the world through and icy windshield.
