Long route: what to check before leaving so as not to get stuck. Schedule a service at SpotMeUp.
Most "holiday crises" are small things: bad tire pressure, old battery, low fluids or brakes that "needed to be repaired". 10 minutes of checks before departure can save you nerves and the costs of a tow truck.
The minimum is: tire pressure and condition, fluids, lights, wipers, basic equipment. If something is questionable (strange sounds, pulling, vibrations), it is better to do a quick inspection before the route instead of counting on luck.
In SpotMeUp, go to Automotive → Mechanics and service / Vulcanization and make an appointment "before departure". Add when you are going and how many kilometers you plan to travel.
Frequently asked questions:
What is the most important thing before the tour? Tires, brakes, fluids and battery.
Is the pressure checked on cold tires? Preferably yes.
Is it worth doing a pre-trip inspection? Yes, if the service has not been serviced for a long time or there are symptoms.
What about wipers and fluid? It's a small thing, but it can ruin your ride in the rain.
Do I need to check the spare tire/repair kit? It's worth it - it's a common "zonk".
What if I have a light on my dashboard? Better to diagnose before leaving.
Can I reschedule? Depends on the rules.
