How do I prepare my car for summer?
The harshness of the heat and light can cause a range of impact, from the car’s bodywork damage to evaporation of its fluids and resulting damage from grime accumulation and overheating. The scorching July-August heat, the hot and humid weather.
Take special car care precautions to be ever ready for the summer’s heat. Living in the not-so-chilly winters of the UAE, you should undertake steps to prepare your car for the summers instead.
This is not only uncomfortable on the level of the sun staring from outside.

Check your car’s coolant fluid levels, filter change requirement, or for any signs of coolant leakage under the hood.
Check tire pressure
Not only the car’s exterior and interior suffer the pangs of heated sun rays, but the pavements and roads are their silent victims too, resulting in the car tires enduring a higher damage risk from the exposed overheating. You can follow the inflation pressure recommendation as per the owner’s manual and check for adequate pressure at least once every month.
Follow proper car maintenance schedules and check if your car tires are properly inflated because riding an under-inflated tire holds great harm.
Example: Check fluid levels of your vechicle.

Check fluid levels
The numerous fluids in a car function as lubricants and coolants to continuously reduce friction and remove heat from the various car parts like the engine, to enable their proper functioning.
Ensure periodic checks of all fluids like brake, transmission or power steering fluids
- Motor oil levels
- Coolant level to ensure the car runs well
- Getting affected by the sweltering heat outside
- Find the summer maintenance schedule for your car
Check for the appropriate fluid levels and the car maintenance schedule for various parts.
Maintain a pleasant driving atmosphere
The prevailing weather has dirt and dust masses in the air, which eventually might clog and accumulate as debris in the air filter units of your car. Keep regular checks on the filters to ensure continuous cooling and air circulation.
- Car’s Cooling System
- Check tire pressure
- Check fluid levels
- Protect the exteriors
- Maintain a pleasant driving atmosphere
UCheck for the wiper’s proper functioning for proper visibility during all rides and use sunshades for windshields to prevent the UV rays damage from the sunlight.
High temperature is known to increase the car battery’s chemical reaction, leading it to an overcharged situation resulting in loss of life span. The heat can also cause quicker evaporation of the car battery fluids, creating a build-up of corrosion in the cable clamps, other connections, and battery terminals.
Check battery
Batteries are the fundamental checks in keeping your car summer-ready to avoid any damage that could result from overheating. High temperature is known to increase the car battery’s chemical reaction, leading it to an overcharged situation resulting in loss of life span.
The heat can also cause quicker evaporation of the car battery fluids, creating a build-up of corrosion in the cable clamps, other connections, and battery terminals. Check regularly for leakages and take care to prevent oxidation from any fluid leakage and heat in the unit.
The intense heat, along with vibrations from an improperly fixated battery unit in the car, during summer, might lead to its breakdown or a complete failure.
Ensure your battery’s proper placement and keep regular checks on its car maintenance and replacement schedules. While the battery, tire, and exteriors get influenced by the temperature, the brakes demand attention too. Ensure proper care, scheduled maintenance for adequate functioning of the car brakes as they are a crucial check in high heat-affected areas for car maintenance.
