Get Your Car Ready for Summer Road Trips and Driving Near Aquebogue, NY
As summer comes along, our minds naturally turn to all the beautiful places we can go. However, to get to those places, you want your car in the best shape possible. At Riverhead Bay Volkswagen, we’ve got just the services for you. We’ll make sure your Volkswagen is in the best shape to get wherever you want to go. We’ve put together a small list of the absolute essentials for prepping your car for summer driving.
Tire Inspections
Two properties of your tires are important to keep them lasting through the amount of driving we do in summer. The first is the condition of your treads, which determines how well you can grip the road and how well you can respond to inclement weather. The other is tire pressure, which, when too low, can have drastic effects like tread separation, overheating, and even blowout.
A/C System Inspection
While some summer nights are cool enough to drive with the windows down, some summer days require the windows to stay up. That’s where your A/C comes in, and we’ll check the entire system for leaks and problems so that you have nice cool air when you need it.

Battery Inspection and Testing
Your battery can lose its ability to hold a charge, so we’ll make sure it will start up for you wherever you are. We’ll then perform a thorough visual and physical inspection of your battery and its connections, ensuring your electrical system can get that first jolt without a problem. While we’re at it, we’ll also take a look at your headlights, taillights, and high beams, so you’ll have all your lights in order.
Cooling System Inspection
Engines have many thousands of explosions happening per minute, so they tend to heat up, and in the summer, it’s easy to keep heating up. We’ll make sure your cooling system is ready for the job from the water pump to the radiator.
Engine Performance Checks
The engine air filter can have a large effect on how well your engine combusts, affecting performance and fuel economy. We’ll check your engine air filter and take a look at the cabin air filter as well while we’re there. We’ll also give your PCV valve a test to ensure your exhaust is venting properly.
