how to winterize your mg tf.

(Found this on a motoring website lol if you carried all that emergency gear there would be nowhere left for to put your packup.) As we change ourselves and get equipped with required goods as we face the season changes, the vehicles also requires some precautionary measures so that they will be protected from the harsh winter conditions.

The first and major component of a car is its battery and it should get inspected by the technician to conform that it has required power stored in it. Next, in the snow affected areas, the MG TF should be fixed with snow tires. Windshield wipers, are effective in clearing the heavy snow deposits on the screen, so better to replace your worn out wipers with snow blades.

Replacing the old air and fuel filters, along with the faulty PCV valve would serve as a best precautionary measure against the winter. By making sure that the level, condition and concentration of the MG TF s anti-freeze you are following a good winterization techniques. Then maintain the appropriate level of gas would be necessary, at least half should be maintained. A full gasoline tank not only keeps moisture from forming on the surface, but also it adds to the weight, which is beneficiary.

Changing the MG TF s oil, following the manual s recommendations would help the MG TF in maintaining an appropriate condition. Also in case of extreme conditions, it would be better if synthetic oil is used, which has won t be thickening easily and can protect the interiors of the MG TF. For a safe and comfortable driving, the vehicle s HVAC systems should be in appropriate conditions, which helps in keeping the cabin dehumidified. Also in the case of light, its better to inspect all the lights once and then replace the burnt out ones, also the grime accumulations on the lenses should be cleansed for proper visibility. The vehicle s exhaust system should be inspected for any leaks and then by taking to a garage, it should be inspected properly.

The necessary items you should be keeping your MG TF to face any emergency situation like a stall or an accident are: small shovel, blanket, gloves, flares, boots, tire chains, flashlight or candle, matches, a CB cellular phone. In this season while going on a drive make sure that all the passengers are wearing their seat belts. In winter times accidents are unfortunate results of the harsh climate, among which rear-head collisions are high. So it would be better if you make sure that you adjust your head restraints. Also while driving plan and mare sure to avoid any bridges on the way.
