Preparing your car for storage is vital. Something else you can’t forget to do however is check it after you take it back out. Specifically, we will be discussing everything you need to do during driving.

Starting the engine

The first step is to start your engine. Let everything run for twenty minutes at least so it can warm up. You may end up having a difficult time getting it to start. It might not fire up full stop. In this instance, contact an expert mechanic to diagnose the issue. They will recommend the ideal repair strategy as well.

Warning signs

Be on the lookout for warning signs too. The engine may sound strange after you begin warming it up. Alternatively, lights or indicators could show up on the dash. If you encounter any of these, check them immediately.

Braking

Test the brakes as well. You may find they are stiff or have gathered rust due to not being in use. Examine your brake pedal to see if things feel normal. Allow your motor to roll a few feet so you can assess the braking. If the need arises, use your emergency brake. Rust on the brake rotors isn’t unheard of but it shall wear away eventually.
