During a road trip, you spend so much time on the move. Between the summer heat and all those miles, a road trip can be tough on your vehicle. It's important to prepare for your trips with these Range Rover maintenance tasks at Land Rover Northfield.
Inspect Your Brakes
The road can be a very unpredictable place and there are few things more important to your safety than your brakes. Make sure to have your brakes inspected before you leave to ensure they work properly. If your brake pads have become too worn, it’s important to replace them.
Replace Your Fluids
To keep your vehicle working efficiently, it’s also important to check its various fluids. They need to be topped off if they’re below the recommended level. Each fluid should also be replaced routinely, so check your owner’s manual to see their appropriate replacement schedules.
Pack an Emergency Kit
You also need to be prepared for the unexpected during a road trip. An emergency kit is a helpful tool, to make sure that you’re prepared for anything. An emergency kit should include:
- Jumper cables
- Flashlight
- Small tool kit
- First aid kit
- Bottled water
- Non-perishable snacks
Clean Your Car
Cleaning your car is an important part of maintaining it. Dirt can eventually become corrosive to your vehicle if left for too long. You also want to clean your cabin regularly, which can help preserve the leather surfaces. Make sure that you regularly replace your cabin filter too.
