As summer fades and Calgary’s crisp autumn air arrives, it’s time to prepare your vehicle for the challenges that come with colder mornings, shorter days, and unpredictable weather. At TRS Automotive, we know that fall is one of the most important seasons to give your car a complete check-up. The right maintenance now can save you from costly repairs, improve safety, and keep your Land Rover, Jaguar, or any other vehicle running smoothly all season long.
Why Fall Car Maintenance Matters?
Autumn brings a unique set of driving conditions: wet leaves on the roads, frosty mornings, earlier sunsets, and sudden temperature drops. And let’s be honest — in Calgary, winter arrives without warning. One day you’re enjoying a mild fall, and the next you wake up to icy roads and a blanket of snow. Being prepared ahead of time ensures you’re not caught off guard.
TRS Automotive’s Fall Vehicle Checklist:
Here’s what we recommend every driver in Calgary should do before winter sets in:
1. Tire Inspection & Winter Tire Change
Check tread depth to ensure your tires can handle wet and icy roads.
Swap to winter tires early — waiting until the first snowfall often means limited availability and longer wait times.
Alignment & balancing to extend tire life and improve safety.
2. Oil & Filter Change
Cold temperatures thicken oil, making it harder for your engine to run efficiently. Fresh oil and a clean filter keep your vehicle performing at its best and protect the engine during harsh weather.
3. Battery Test
A weak battery can fail quickly in cold conditions. At TRS Automotive, we’ll test your battery, inspect connections, and recommend a replacement if needed — so you’re never stranded on a frosty morning.
4. Brake Inspection
Leaves, moisture, and frost make fall roads slippery. Safe braking is non-negotiable. Our technicians inspect pads, rotors, and fluid to ensure maximum stopping power.
5. Heating & Defrost Systems
Make sure you’ll stay warm inside and your windshield stays clear. We’ll test your heating, defrost, and ventilation systems before you need them most.
6. Fluid Check & Top-Up
From coolant to windshield washer fluid, every system matters more in colder weather. We’ll inspect all fluid levels and top them up with products designed for Calgary’s climate.
7. Lights & Wipers
Shorter days mean more night driving. We’ll check bulbs, headlights, and wiper blades to maximize visibility in rain, fog, and snow.
