Car Care tips for Spring from Larry H. Miller Honda Boise

Guess what?! April is car care month and we want to make sure that your car is in the best position for Spring.

At Larry H. Miller Honda of Boise, we decided to put together these car care tips for you to notice as Spring approaches. The best time to get your vehicle checked is to have us conduct a multi-point inspection for your vehicle in our service department. Here are some other items to notice and check in case you can make it in: 

• Schedule a Spring tune-up: This will always help with your car's performance. 
• All fluids: Your engine oil, power steering fluids, brake, transmission as well as windshield washer fluid, and the antifreeze coolant.
• Battery Life: along with making sure there is no acid build-up on the car battery. Also, look at the cables connected to them to make sure they're in good help.
• Air Conditioner: The summer is coming fast, make sure you're prepared with a well working AC.
• Tires: This includes tire pressure and the tread tread. Keep in mind that uneven wear on the tires in an indication that you need an alignment. Tires should also be checked for bulges and bald spots.
• Hoses and belts to make sure they are not cracked, brittle, frayed, loose or showing signs of excessive wear.
• Wipers: You'll want to make sure your wipers cleanly wipe away water for the most optimal viewing out of your car's window.
• External Lighting: Break lights and head lights.
• Brakes: Normally, you should have these checked at your oil changes, but when breaking while driving, check to see if everything feels right as well.

Great Winter driving tips from Larry H. Miller Honda Boise

The weather outside always eventually gets frightful here in Boise and in Idaho, as well. This can create treacherous driving conditions, even for the experienced snow driver. So for those of you who have to brave this winter wonderland, the Larry H. Miller Honda Boise team put together some helpful tips for driving in winter conditions. 

First of all, it's important that you keep a few items in your vehicle in case you need them:

• Ice scrap
• Tire chains
• Small shovel or ice pick
• Water supply
• A flashlight
• Gloves, coats and blankets
• Signal devices, such as a flare

One thing that will make a tremendous impact on your ability to grip the road in slippery conditions is your tires. Snow tires should be applied to your vehicle to help you get the maximum amount of traction. It's also important to keep your tires properly inflated. Remember, your tires are the only part of the vehicle that touches the road!

Here are a few driving tips that will also help you stay out of trouble in icy and snowy conditions:

• Slow down! This might seem obvious, but your ability to stop and stay in control depends upon your speed. 
• Brake gently and leave plenty of room. If your wheels lock up, or you feel your vehicle sliding when attempting to stop, pump your brakes--don't stand on them. 
• Steer in the direction you want your front end to go. If your rear wheels slide left, gently turn the wheel left. If your rear wheels slide right, gently turn to the right to gain control. 
• 4WD and AWD vehicles perform much better in the snow than other vehicles. Honda has both.
• Don't panic! If you feel your vehicle start to slide, don't try to over-correct the situation. Pump your brakes and use gentle maneuvering to steer the vehicle.

We wish you all a safe and happy 2014! Plan ahead and be careful out there!
