Prepare Your Vehicles This Winter

The time has come for all motorists, professional drivers, and fleet operators to be wary of the roads they are driving on. The steep drop in temperature for the incoming Winter months is the main reason for this. Here at OilMaxx, rain, sleet, or snow will not stop our drivers as we provide their vehicles with the proper care and attention they need to combat the roads as temperatures drop. Read on to find out how to prepare your vehicles to make them winter-ready and what to do if they aren’t.

Specific Solutions Are Important

To prepare your vehicles for the treacherous Winter months, you must ensure that you are providing it with the correct materials needed to perform at maximum efficiency. Vehicles recently made in the last decade require antifreeze and coolants for the engine to perform at maximum efficiency. If your vehicle has a modern engine, it will use various materials for its cooling systems, such as silicon, copper, nylon, magnesium, and aluminium. Different vehicles require different antifreeze products, based on the manufacturer’s details.

OilMaxx is proud to announce that we are now an official partner of MANNOL. The MANNOL brand has been in the engine oil market for over 20 years and has many customers who rely on the company’s innovative products. MANNOL were an obvious partner choice for us here at OilMaxx as we share the same customer-focused beliefs – always trying to put the customer’s needs at the heart of our innovative products. This can be seen across their product listings, such as antifreeze AG13+ 401. This is a Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (HOAT), which is useful all year round and aims to protect the cooling system down to -40°C. This product has been a saviour to a lot of our commercial consumers as it tends to offer 5-year protection.

Do You Have Enough Oil?

When preparing your vehicle this Winter, create a checklist of what needs to be looked over. First on the list will be the external features that you can see, such as tyre checks, windows, etc. However, you should never overlook engine oil. It is recommended that you change your engine oil every 3,000 miles. If you choose to neglect this, there can be serious consequences, and in some severe cases, it can result in engine damage.

Here at OilMaxx, we offer a range of oils that are specific to the needs of the manufacturer. This has a range of benefits for our commercial consumers, as it allows their vehicles to start in low-temperature conditions.

Avoiding Winter Breakdowns

The Winter months carry a lot of risks for our commercial consumers, from icy roads to soaked fields; it is pivotal that their vehicles are prepared so that they can carry on with their work. Many issues can occur if you fail to properly look after your vehicle, such as issues with brake performance. OilMaxx partners MANNOL have produced products that combat the chances of a breakdown. One of these products is a special antifreeze that is specific to the pneumatic brake. The product, also known as Air Brake Antifreeze 9894, aims to prevent the formation of ice crystals in your brake system as it actively lubricates the valves.
