What is a Winter Car Check at AJ 4X4 ?
As the winter months approach, the days get shorter, and the weather starts to worsen.
With reduced daylight and changing weather conditions, driving becomes more challenging,
increasing the risk of accidents or breakdowns.
Many breakdowns and accidents during this time of year could be avoided by ensuring your
vehicle is fit for winter. A Winter Car Check at AJ 4X4
ensures your car is prepared to face winter conditions, giving it the best chance of
making it safely through the colder months. Read on to learn more about what we offer.
Tyre Inspection
Tyres are often the most overlooked aspect of vehicle maintenance, but they are one of
the most critical, especially during winter. Your tyres are the only contact points
between your vehicle and the road, so their condition is vital.
As part of our Winter Car Check, we will thoroughly inspect your tyres,
checking tread depth and overall condition. Worn or damaged tyres can significantly
increase the risk of skidding and losing control in wet, icy, or snowy conditions.
Having quality tyres with good tread helps improve grip, making winter driving much
safer.
Battery Inspection
Cold weather can take a toll on your car’s battery, reducing its performance or causing
it to fail altogether. The battery powers essential systems in your vehicle, making it
crucial to ensure it’s working properly.
At AJ 4X4 , our Winter Car Check includes a comprehensive
battery test to make sure it's fully charged, optimised, and securely in place. This
prevents unexpected power loss and keeps your vehicle running smoothly throughout the
winter months.
Coolant and Antifreeze Top-Up
Cooling system failures are a common cause of breakdowns, especially in winter. The last
thing you want is to be stranded in freezing temperatures with an overheated engine or
burst hoses.
Our Winter Car Check includes a coolant and antifreeze top-up, ensuring
your engine is protected from freezing and overheating. Proper antifreeze levels prevent
damage to your engine and its components, keeping your car reliable and safe on the
road.

Windscreen Wiper Inspection
In winter, clear visibility is essential, especially with the increased rain, snow, and
road salt. Your windscreen wipers play a key role in ensuring you can see the road
clearly.
As part of our Winter Car Check, we inspect your windscreen wipers and
replace them if necessary. Worn-out wipers can reduce visibility and even cause an MOT
failure, so we ensure they are in perfect working order to keep you safe on the road.
Lights Inspection
With shorter days and longer nights, your headlights and taillights are more important
than ever. Proper lighting ensures you can see and be seen by other drivers, reducing
the risk of accidents in low visibility conditions.
Our technicians will check your vehicle’s lights during the Winter Car Check, ensuring
they are functioning correctly and are compliant with safety regulations. We recommend
keeping a spare set of bulbs in your car for emergencies.
Oil Check
A breakdown in winter can be particularly hazardous, especially in icy or remote
locations. One of the key aspects of maintaining your engine’s health is ensuring it has
the right level and type of oil.
During your Winter Car Check at AJ 4X4 , we’ll check your oil levels and
recommend the appropriate type of oil for colder weather. Using the right oil ensures
your engine runs smoothly, reducing the risk of breakdowns in the winter months.
