How to Make Your Ford Ready For Spring
Cooler days are over and spring has set in and it’s time to clean your house and workspaces, as well as, your cherished Ford. Just imagine how much time you spend in your vehicle and accordingly, it makes sense to invest some time to clean your car and make it ready for the spring season. To get the best performance out of your car with smooth ride quality all through the year, it’s vital to clean your vehicle at regular intervals.
Here are vital cleaning tips to make your Ford ready for the spring season:
1. Checking the Fluid, Oil and Battery of Your Car
Some vehicles have inbuilt monitors that sense and display when the oil level is low, but not all vehicles have them. Every time your vehicle runs 5000 to 8000 kilometres, you should take your vehicle to top up fluid and oil, as well as, get battery inspected. This helps your car to remain in top working condition and continue performing at its optimal best.
2. Cleaning Interiors of Your Car
First, vacuum the seats and carpets of your car to remove accumulated dirt and dust of departed winter days. Wipe clean the car’s dashboard with a dusting cloth and clean your car’s glass surface with a glass cleaner. Use a mix of some water, spot cleaner and little vinegar oil to clean cloth mats. Besides, you can use this vinegar-water mix to clean the interior mirrors and windows.
3. Washing Your Car
A thorough wash is imperative to fight the salt that gets accumulated from the roads, dirt, dust and grime. This involves washing the tyres, wheels, undercarriage, crannies and nooks. Once this is done, you should rotate your car’s tyres. This will ensure your vehicle’s tyres last longer and that you’ll save money eventually.

Moreover, consider waxing the complete vehicle exterior, as salt and grime wear away the wax on vehicles. Thus, offering your vehicle with loving tender care will help ensure the paint looks bright for years to come.
The Bottom Line

For this, it’s recommended that you take your car to an authorised service centre and ask the technician to check for the proper functioning of auto parts. Upon inspection, if the technician finds any of your Ford car parts either damaged or exhausted and needs a replacement for optimal performance, then you should consider the technician’s advice and get the faulty or damaged auto parts replaced to restore your vehicle’s health.
