Take Care Of Your Car This Autumn

Driving in autumn weather can bring new challenges to even the most experienced driver. Taking proper care of your car, being aware of hazards and making sure your vehicle is prepared for the colder season is crucial. We take a look at what you need to be aware of whilst driving in Autumn, how you can prevent issues with our car grilles and how to stay safe on the roads.

Keep Up With Regular Car Maintenance

As the nights start to get darker, it's important to regularly check your lights and make sure they are working correctly. Visibility may be poorer so your car will need bright lights that can illuminate the road and signal your intentions to other drivers. Like always, make sure your tyres have a tread depth of at least 1.6mm and that you replace any older batteries. Don't forget about de-icing either, check that you have enough antifreeze as temperatures start to fall in Autumn. There is also an increased chance of fog, so slow down if you need to and use your fog lights when necessary, allowing plenty of room in front of you.

Protect Your Car With Zunsport's Car Grilles

Falling leaves often clog up standard car grilles in Autumn so one of the best ways you can protect your car is using our specialist handwoven stainless steel car grilles. Our grilles are available for a wide range of vehicles, with rounded wire and a tighter mesh to stop dirt, dust and leaves from getting in. Designed for maximum protection, our innovative car grilles allow smoother airflow to prevent overheating and ensure your radiators and intercoolers are safe throughout the year.

Be Prepared For Changing Weather Conditions

As the sun is lower in the sky, dazzle (light reflections) can often be a problem in Autumn, so make sure your windscreen is clean, you have sunglasses handy and that there aren't any chips or scratches which could make glare worse. Autumn leaves can also make the road very slippery, so try and avoid braking on them if possible. They can also cover up road signs and markers, so be aware of your driving position and stay in your lane.
