Dubai is known for two things, heat, sweltering and high rise buildings. In Fact, the whole of the UAE can get very hot, especially during the summer.  It is true that most modern cars have been tested for extreme conditions. This still doesn’t tell you much about how the car will behave in such conditions, nor does it prepare you to make the best use of the car during hot weather.  We’ll be exploring ways you can take care of your car during the hot season.

Engine Coolant

Cars have coolants in them to keep the engine at working temperatures. However, in the deep of summer, the coolant itself heats up and therefore is unable to draw out the heat from the engine. You know what this means, there’s greater pressure on the coolant systems. High temperatures also force the coolants to be depleted faster. What to do here is always watch your temperature gauge on your dashboard. Also  make sure your coolants are at the maximum levels right before the beginning of summer. And if you plan to go on a long journey during summer, then you should also top up your coolant.     

Engine Oil

We’re still on the engine, this is the most important and the most expensive part of a car to maintain, repair or replace if it comes to that. Due to the temperature, the engine oil does deplete faster than normal. The lubricative capacity is also reduced, now this means that there will be less lubrication for the moving parts of the engine, therefore more wear and tear. At the start of the summer, change your oil and put in some new oil into your engine. Also, be aware that there are recommended grades of oils for weather and car type, take this into cognizance too.    

Tyres

These are the most overlooked parts of cars, but they are perhaps after the engine, the next most important part. Make sure your tyres are in good shape. Check the temperature, it should meet the recommended measurement by the company. Make sure it’s neither overinflated nor underinflated. Check for blemishes, bubbles, cracks and other signs of damages on the tyre, then fix those that can be fixed, or change the tyres. If you’re not sure you can have a tyre technician look at it.
