Essential Car Maintenance Tips for UAE Summer

The UAE's extreme summer temperatures can be tough on vehicles. Here are practical tips to keep your car running smoothly during the hottest months.

Check Your Cooling System

Your car's cooling system works overtime in UAE heat. Regular checks can prevent costly breakdowns:

  • Monitor coolant levels weekly
  • Inspect hoses for cracks or leaks
  • Clean the radiator of dust and debris
  • Replace coolant according to manufacturer schedule

Tire Care in Hot Weather

High temperatures affect tire pressure and wear:

  • Check tire pressure when tires are cool (early morning)
  • Inspect for signs of excessive wear or damage
  • Rotate tires regularly for even wear
  • Keep a spare tire in good condition

Air Conditioning Maintenance

A working AC system is essential for comfort and safety:

  • Replace cabin air filter regularly
  • Check refrigerant levels
  • Clean AC vents and ducts
  • Service the system annually

Battery Protection

Heat can reduce battery life significantly:

  • Keep battery terminals clean
  • Check electrolyte levels if applicable
  • Park in shade when possible
  • Consider battery replacement every 2-3 years

Oil and Fluid Checks

Regular fluid maintenance is crucial:

  • Check oil level and quality monthly
  • Monitor brake fluid levels
  • Inspect windshield washer fluid
  • Top up power steering fluid as needed

Following these simple maintenance tips can help prevent breakdowns and extend your vehicle's life in UAE conditions
