Say Goodbye To Your Pollen Problem! | Danbury, CT

March is officially in full swing and we all know that means...POLLEN IS COMING! I know, I know, don’t freak out we’re going to make it through it as long as you’ve recently changed your air filters in your Mercedes-Benz...wait, you haven’t?! Okay, don’t stress, the pros here at Mercedes-Benz of Danbury are here to save the day we just need your help! Head over to our site to schedule a service appointment for whenever works best for you, and then just head in! It’s that simple! But if you’re a big DIY fan, changing your air filters is quite easy! Just take a peek below and see all the information you need below! Pollen problemOne of the biggest reasons to change your filters is to ensure you won’t be breathing in all the pollen from outside. While a filter should be changed every 12,000-15,000 miles, it is often a good idea to change it at the end of the pollen season too. Otherwise, allergens might end up blowing out at you as the filter deteriorates. Clean air, clean carSpring is one of the most confusing seasons. One day we could have 80-degree day and the next it is 45 and rainy, so saying that you’ll be using your air conditioning and heater pretty frequently is an understatement. But the more your air system works the more strain is put on your filters. When this happens, pollen isn't the only thing you’ll find flying out of the vent. If the filter isn’t changed regularly, all that build is coming out at you! This can quickly turn a recently detailed car into a dusty mess. Aka a waste of your money. Efficiency is key

Although cabin filters help you breathe better, that is not their only job, In fact, cabin filters actually help keep things working smoothly. A dirty filter can result in your heater core or air conditioner becoming clogged, reducing overall efficiency and causing a headache down the road. So instead of skipping your filter change to save a couple of bucks, save yourself the headache and set yourself a reminder to get your air filters changed sooner than later!

Visibility could be hindered in the winter month due to frost, ice, snow, and other elements. Making sure your defroster is working, your wiper blades don’t have any cracks or are leaving streaks across your windshield Generally, wiper blades should be replaced every 6 months Don’t forget the windshield wiper fluid! Most vehicles will warn you you’re running low but it is always a good idea to keep it recommended levels Have Your Brakes Checked: It’s no secret your breaks are important, but in the winter months, it’s important they’re in shape to take on the winter weather. Make sure the brake pads/rotors don’t need to be replaced and have the brake line checked as well. Our team is more than qualified to help give you peace of mind and repair any issues we may find Check Your Lights: Your vehicle’s lights tend to be overlooked, but as the days begin to grow darker sooner, your lights become extremely important Think about the last time you changed your headlights and taillights, if you can’t remember, chances are it’s time to change them! If they’re still running smoothly, give them a good cleaning to create better visibility
