Many car owners know that it is difficult to service vehicles in the rainy season. In fact, rainfall, unlike strong sunlight, has a very poor effect on the body. Although many people know the safe rules for driving in this weather.
This involves driving the vehicle at slow speeds, turning on lights, and driving at a safe distance from the nearest vehicle on the road. It is important to protect your vehicle in the rain to prevent
premature aging and unexpected damage.


I appreciate the enlightenment. I've heard that using your A/C while driving through a flooded area damages it. How true is that and what are the preventive measures please? Thanks


Here's a list of effective tips to keep your car in a good condition :

1.
Clean the windows,headlights and windscreens of your vehicle
When driving a vehicle in the wet, it is important that you have a clear view. So make sure your car windows, headlights, tail-lights, turn signals are clean. This is also crucial for the safety of drivers and passengers in the vehicle.

2.
Ensure you have good tyre profile
It is important that the tyres run perfectly when you want to drive safely on the road. Make sure your wheels are running well if they have low tyre depths, also pay attention to the correct tyre pressure. If your wheels are low pressure, the water can not be pushed out of the way while driving.


3.
Be sure to replace the windscreen wipers if worn out
The idea of driving a vehicle without a windshield wiper is really awful when it's wet. If you notice dry, cracked or brittle rubber blades of windscreen wipers, the visibility will be affected in heavy rain. Especially if you live in a region where it rains frequently, you should replace the automatic wipers when necessary.

4.
Check the battery life of the car
If you live in an area where occasionally rain falls, the life of your car battery is shortened. So take good care of your battery. If necessary, replace it with a new one, as the batteries can be damaged in the wet.

5.
Make sure your vehicle brakes are working properly
It is always important to have good brakes in a vehicle. No matter in which weather conditions you drive with it. However, having very wet brakes can cause problems with stopping the vehicle effectively. This is because dirt and grease can reduce the braking effect when they splash on the chassis of the vehicle. Therefore, make sure that the brakes of your vehicle have enough fiction material.

6.
Wash and grow your vehicle properly
In wet weather conditions it is very difficult to remove smudges and water stains from your car. A good car wash and wax, however, help to easily remove the accumulated dirt. It will also improve the visibility while driving. You can also use water-repellent products to clean windscreens and windows.

7.
Always have emergency equipment ready
Normally, it is best to stay indoors during the rainy season. However, it can happen that you have to leave the house during the weather. In such situations it is best to have emergency equipment in the car.


8.
Look for water leaks
Rubber seals are important to prevent water from entering your vehicle. Always check all the rubber seals of your car. It's also a great way to prevent corrosion. Look for drain holes in your boot and bonnet and make sure they are not clogged.


9.
Use the air conditioning system of your vehicle
Every vehicle owner knows that a clear view while driving is very important. Use your car's air conditioner to prevent the windows and windshield from misting up and settling.


10.
Be careful and drive slowly in the rain
Even if you already follow all the tips above, you should drive slowly during the rainy season. In this way you can avoid aquaplaning. Always remember not to brake suddenly and double the distance. This will prevent the vehicle from skidding. Try to drive the car in the middle lane, as the water on the sides is stagnant.
