Summer Season in Kelowna: Is Your Vehicle Ready?

Summer in Kelowna is all about warm weather, lake days, wine country tours, and scenic road trips through the Okanagan Valley. But while you're enjoying the sunshine, your vehicle is working overtime—dealing with higher temperatures, dry air, and increased travel. At WMK Auto Repair, we help local drivers stay safe, comfortable, and prepared all season long.

Here are some essential summer car maintenance tips and how WMK can help you every step of the way:

1. Keep Your Engine Cool – Radiator & Coolant System Check

Kelowna's summer temperatures can climb quickly, and your engine can overheat if your cooling system isn’t functioning properly. Our technicians inspect your radiator, check coolant levels, and ensure there are no leaks, so your engine stays cool even during long drives to Penticton or Vernon.

2. Air Conditioning Service – Stay Comfortable

Your A/C should do more than blow air—it should blow cold, clean air. If your cabin feels more like a sauna than a sanctuary, it's time to visit WMK Auto Repair. We provide full A/C diagnostics and recharging to keep you and your passengers cool on every summer drive.

3. Tire Inspection & Rotation – Grip the Road with Confidence

Summer driving in Kelowna often means quick temperature changes and road trips. Heat can cause tires to expand and wear faster. We check tire pressure, tread depth, and alignment to ensure your tires are ready for both highways and backroads.

4. Oil Change & Fluid Top-Up – Summer-Ready Performance

Your engine oil and essential fluids play a vital role in protecting your vehicle during summer heat. We recommend a summer oil change to maintain optimal engine performance and efficiency.

At WMK, we also check and top up:

• Brake Fluid
• Transmission Fluid
• Power Steering Fluid
• Windshield Washer Fluid

5. Battery Health Check – Avoid Getting Stranded

Hot weather puts added stress on your battery, especially if it’s more than 3 years old. A weak battery could leave you stranded in the middle of wine country. Our technicians perform a full battery test and provide replacements if needed.

6. Road Trip-Ready Inspections

Planning a weekend getaway or a long road trip this summer? Drop by WMK for a pre-trip inspection. We’ll check your brakes, belts, hoses, filters, and lights to make sure everything is road-trip ready.
