Summer may be hard on automobiles, as their functioning can be affected by various factors. Extremely hot climatic conditions, wind, and dirt can affect the functioning of the vehicle in various ways.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s examine five essential factors to consider to enhance the summer performance of the car.<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Engine Cooling:<\/b> The engine is likely to get overheated during the summer. This puts stress on the cooling system of the car. The engine is built to work in a specific temperature range, and excessive heat reduces the performance on the road. Air fuel ratio gets affected due to excessive heat, causing loss of horsepower. Engine coolant and radiator have to be inspected. Ensure that there is sufficient coolant to enable heat transfer and that the radiator fan and thermostat are functioning properly.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Engine Oil: <\/b>Ensure that engine oil and filter are changed as per manufacturer guidelines. Engine oil breaks down during the summer, thereby reducing its lubricating properties. This increases friction of engine components, causing wear, more fuel consumption, and lower engine performance.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Air Intake: <\/b>Hot summers cause lesser oxygen intake by the engine due to the lesser density of hot air compared to cool air. Replacing clogged air filters helps in the better functioning of the engine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. <\/b>Air Conditioning: <\/b>Hot summer makes it tough for the AC to provide optimal performance. AC puts extra load on the engine, thereby decreasing the power and fuel efficiency. Get the car AC examined for refrigerant level, leaks, and ensure that the compressor and condenser are working properly. A clogged cabin air filter reduces cooling efficiency as air flow is restricted. Window tinting can reduce the sunlight falling inside the car, and parking in shade can reduce the cooling requirement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. Battery Performance: <\/b>Summer can be harsh on car batteries as electrolyte evaporation happens rapidly. This reduces battery voltage and its ability to retain charge. The internal components, such as lead plates, are weakened, leading to lower power output from the battery. Corrosion of battery terminals also causes poor electrical connection and hinders performance. Ensure the battery is serviced ahead of summer to prevent potential issues on the road.<\/span>

\n<\/span>A little care and precaution can help your car provide optimal functioning in the hot summer.\u00a0 Ensure a smooth and comfortable summer ride. <\/span><\/p>\n
