Winter..... Coping with cold, snow and ice 

Winter motoring requires special care and a little preparation if you're to avoid a breakdown.
Battery and Electrics

• Lights, heaters and windscreen wipers put high demands on the car battery. If the car is driven mainly in dark rush-hour trips, the battery will give out eventually.
• Batteries rarely last longer than five years, so replacing them near the end of their life can save a lot of time and inconvenience at the side of the road when they finally fizzle out.
• Avoid running car electrics any longer than necessary - turn the heater fan down and switch the heated rear window off once windows are clear.
• If the car stands idle most of the weekend a regular overnight trickle charge is a good idea to give the battery a chance to revive.
• When you're starting up the car ensure that non-essentials, like lights, rear screen heater and wipers are turned off.
• Use the starter in short five-second bursts if the engine doesn't start quickly, leaving thirty seconds between attempts to allow the battery to recover.
