Windshield Fluid
It seems like a no-brainer, but this very inexpensive component in your car's fluid system is still a very important part in safe driving. Keeping the wiper fluid reservoir filled ensures that any dirt and debris can quickly be washed away from our windshields, ensuring that our vision is clear.
It's a good idea to keep an extra bottle in the trunk during nasty weather, not only do we go through more of it, it can be used to free up wipers that are frozen to the windshield. Wiper fluid comes in winter and summer grades, one that is designed for cold weather is resistant to freezing and your windshield will be nice and clear despite the frost outside and it won't freeze in the reservoir.
Fluid changes are among the easier tasks for a do-it-yourself owner, but quick lube shops are just as convenient – and who wouldn't rather enjoy a cup of coffee and a leisurely browse through the newspaper while someone else does the dirty work?
