About this episode

The episode discusses how winter affects vehicle performance and the importance of adjusting maintenance routines.

Winter doesn't just affect drivers — it affects vehicles too. Colder temperatures can reduce battery performance, alter tyre pressure, increase fuel consumption, and place extra strain on key components. Yet many motorists don't adjust their maintenance routines for the season, often leading to preventable breakdowns and costly repairs. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
