Summer is the perfect time for Florida fun, but before you head out on your road trip, don’t forget about Lexus maintenance. Have our team at Lexus of Orange Park get you ready for the highway with these quick service stops. Cruise from coast to coast and enjoy every mile with these easy preventative measures.
Change Your Oil
If you’ve had an oil change scheduled for a while, but you haven’t been able to fit it into your schedule, make it a priority before your road trip. If you start off with dirty oil, your journey is a great opportunity for the metal shards, dirt, and other contaminants to fully clog up your engine. Tell our team you have a long trip ahead of you, and they’ll check on other essential systems, like your battery and fluids, before you head out.
Prepare the Interior
It’s easy to let your cabin fill up with clutter during winter and spring, so get your interior ready for stretching out before you leave. In addition to removing any unnecessary packages or other objects, you’ll want to vacuum any dirt or dust inside. If it’s a long trip, you may even want to get your luxurious Lexus interior detailed to maximize your enjoyment.
Clean the Exterior
Getting your exterior ready is just as important as primping the interior. Take your car through an automatic car wash or wash it by hand; either way, you’ll get rid of any salt or dirt that has clung to your paint job. If you’re washing by hand, you’ll want to spray the hose underneath to clean your undercarriage, as it is where a lot of road materials tend to stick.
