When Your Car is Also Social Distancing

Greetings, Sevenwalls Squad! 🚗🔧 In these unprecedented times, just like you, your car might be taking a break from the usual hustle and bustle. But hey, downtime is a perfect time for some TLC. Let’s roll up our sleeves and dive into DIY car care during lockdown!

When Your Car is Also Social Distancing

1. Keep it Clean and Serene:

A parked car tends to accumulate dust. Give it a thorough wash, ensuring you clean the underbody, wheel arches, and don't forget those hidden nooks and crannies. Make it a family activity – kids love a good car wash!

2. Battery Basics:

Long periods of inactivity can drain your car's battery. Start your vehicle once a week and let it run for 15 minutes. This ensures the battery remains charged and the engine lubricated.

3. Tiresome Tires?

Tires can lose air over time, especially when stationary. Check the pressure regularly, and don't forget to inspect for any flat spots if your car has been parked for an extended period.

4. Critter Check:

Cars that sit idle can sometimes attract small animals looking for shelter. Regularly inspect under the hood and around the car to ensure no uninvited guests have set up camp.

5. Safe and Secure:

While your car is enjoying its downtime, ensure it's protected. Equip it with one of Sevenwalls' top-tier Faraday boxes or our unyielding steering wheel locks to safeguard against any opportunistic threats.
