Let’s face it, your Mercedes-Benz vehicle doesn’t need a lot of help looking good. But with spring just a few days away, you might hit a lot of rain, pollen, bugs, dirt, debris, and everything else that tries so hard to make your Mercedes-Benz look less than perfect – good luck. Maintaining your vehicle’s exterior paint is important to make sure that there is no damage over time because when your Mercedes-Benz looks good, you feel good! 

If you’re the type to roll up your sleeves and take pride in giving your ride a good cleaning, then we have some helpful tips for you this week. Of course, if you’re more about the ride and not the cleaning, we totally get it, that’s why you can schedule your appointment and we will detail your ride and have you looking fresh in no time. Whichever kind of driver you are, be sure to check out our helpful tips below!

Step 1: Fill a clean bucket with water and soap, choose a car shampoo that won’t strip your vehicle’s wax, and provide lubrication for grimy particles. *If you notice swirl marks when you wash your car, try filling two buckets, one with soap and one without. Before you dunk your sponge for more soap, dunk it into the bucket of clean, non-soapy water. This is cleaning your sponge of the dirt and grime that you just took off your car and will help prevent swirl marks.*

Step 2: Rinse your car, make sure you get those pesky, hard-to-reach spots too. This will get rid of loose dirt and grime and ultimately make washing your car a little less of a hassle. When rinsing your vehicle, wash top to bottom opposed to front to back. Suds up your car, rinse, and repeat. Instead of a sponge, wash mitts are a great option. For pesky spots, like grime or bugs, try a spot cleaner that will help remove the stuck-on mess. 

Step 3: Drying your vehicle after washing is extremely important, it makes all your hard work worth it. Using a clean microfiber cloth, dry windows and mirrors first, then move to bigger surfaces like your hood, doors, and trunk. Don’t forget door jams or any hard-to-reach spots. Lastly, dry your wheels and tires. 

Step 4: A spray wax or sealant can help rejuvenate the shine on your vehicle.

Hopefully, that means the snow will finally go away and you can start preparing your vehicle for sunnier days! It’s no secret that we’ve had a harsh winter, and tough weather conditions like that are hard on your vehicle. This means before you hit the road for some fun in the sun, you should get your Mercedes-Benz road trip ready. Lucky for you, your friends here at Mercedes-Benz of Danbury have put together your Spring cleaning maintenance checklist!

Simply head over to our website to schedule your service appointment, and don’t forget to check out our service offers while you’re there!

Give Your Vehicle A Good Wash

• Winter can be tough on your vehicle’s exterior. Freezing temperatures and salt from the road can do real damage to your paint job, so make sure to start the season with a car wash.
• If you choose to go to a car wash, go for the premium wash to get all the nooks and crannies and a deep clean after months of harsh road conditions.
• If you do it yourself, make sure to add baking soda to the wash water if your car has a strong salt buildup. This will help neutralize the salt and save your paint job.

Tire Check

• When it looks like the snow is finally done falling, be sure to switch from your snow tires to your all-season tires. 
• Once you have your tires back on, be sure to grab your owners manual to find the Manufacturer recommended air pressure. Not only is this important for alignment, but also can give you better gas mileage and save your money at the tank! 
• Make sure your tires are rotated regularly and don’t wait until you have a visible flat to fill them up. 
• Check your tires for worn tread and make sure to replace your tires when the tread becomes too worn. If you’re not sure if you need new tires, use the penny test to determine!

Battery Check

• After a long brutal winter, you’re going to want to check your battery’s life. 
• Stop by the dealership for a battery test to see the life of your car’s battery. If your battery is getting weak, you can prevent future problems by replacing it before it stops working. 
• If you find you’re in need of a new battery, be sure to check out our service offers page to see if you can take advantage of any battery offers!

Replace Wiper Blades and Fluids

• Snow, sleet, and ice can cause wear on your windshield wipers – and it’s no secret how dirty your windows get with slush getting kicked up at you on the road. This means spring is the perfect time to get new wiper blades and top off your windshield wiper fluid levels for all the spring rain coming your way very soon.
• New wiper blades are inexpensive and simple to replace, so you won’t even need to pay someone to do it for you. However, our team of experts is always here to help you if needed!

Oil Change 

• Your vehicle works hard to get you where you need to go, especially during the winter months. That’s why spring is the perfect time to give your care the TLC/pick-me-up your vehicle needs. 
• Regular oil changes can make all the difference in making sure your car has a long, healthy life. 
• Whether your vehicle needs a regular oil change or synthetic oil change, our team is here to assist you!
• Be sure to check out our service offers page to see what offers are available to you!
• If you will be performing the oil change on your own, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s suggestions for oil change intervals and oil viscosity, and make sure to change the oil filter as well.

Winter is far from over, so making sure your beloved Mercedes-Benz is in shape for whatever weather is ahead of you is important.

The snow is falling and we want to make sure all of our beloved customers stay safe on the road ahead. We know living in the tri-state area means you’re no stranger to the snow. However, that doesn’t mean that we all like driving in the snow, or even good at doing so. So, in order to help keep everyone safe, we have a couple of tips and tricks for driving in the snow. Now we want to emphasize the importance of safe driving, and urge all customers to stay off the road if possible. However, we understand that in some cases it is inevitable that you’ll have to drive in the snow. So take a peek below for a refresher on how to navigate the snow carefully! And if you want to shop for a new Mercedes-Benz, we invite you to shop online now at https://www.mercedesbenzofdanbury.com/, and schedule a test drive when the storm clears up!

Tips For Driving In The Snow:

• Accelerate and decelerate slowly. Applying the gas slowly to accelerate is the best method for gaining traction and avoiding skids.
• Drive slowly. Everything takes longer on snow-covered roads. Accelerating, stopping, turning – nothing happens as quickly as on dry pavement. Give yourself time to maneuver by driving slowly.
• The normal dry pavement following distance of three to four seconds should be increased to eight to ten seconds
• Know your brakes. Whether you have antilock brakes or not, the best way to stop is threshold braking.
• Don’t stop if you can avoid it.
• Don’t stop going up a hill. There’s nothing worse than trying to get moving up a hill on an icy road.
• Make it know what kind of driving assistance you have (AAA, Roadside Assistance, etc.)
