Tips to Getting Your Vehicle Ready For Winter

Car Care Tips from the Pros Prepare You for Fall and Winter Driving

It’s foolhardy to head out in a poorly maintained vehicle in the dead of winter, of course, but even vehicle owners in temperate zones need a car care check as the days grow shorter, note the pros with the SolitaireHonda.

Regular, routine maintenance can help improve your gasoline mileage, reduce pollution, and catch minor problems before they become big headaches. Solitaire Honda offers these car care tips to give you peace of mind during fall and winter driving:

• Before you do anything else, read your owner’s manual and follow the manufacturer’s recommended service schedules.
• Get engine performance and driveability problems — hard starts, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc. — corrected at a reputable repair shop that employs ASE-certified repair professionals. Cold weather makes existing problems worse.
• Replace dirty filters, such as air, fuel, and PCV. A poorly running engine is less efficient and burns more gasoline.
• As the temperature drops below freezing, add a bottle of fuel deicer in your tank once a month to help keep moisture from freezing in the fuel line. Keeping the gas tank filled also helps prevent moisture from forming.
• Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual — more often if your driving is mostly stop-and-go or consists of frequent short trips. A poll of ASE Master Auto Technicians revealed that regular oil and filter changes is one of the most frequently neglected services, yet one that is essential to protect your engine.
• The cooling system should be flushed and refilled as recommended. The level, condition, and concentration of the coolant should be checked periodically. A 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water is usually recommended. Do-It-Yourselfers: Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled!

Tips On How To Maintain Your Tyres

Tyres are expensive, period. You may need a replacement once in 4 – 5 years. However, by the end of that period, your tyre could easily be torn down to shreds, if proper care wasn’t given to it. The minimum legal tread depth is 1.5 mm, while some may choose to use beyond that, it can lead to dire consequences. Proper maintenance should ensure safer driving and prolong the life of your tyres. With Proper Maintenance of Tyre you should also do your Car Servicing Properly for Your car Performance. We offer Best Car Servicing at Our Solitaire Honda Car Service Center in Mumbai. Book Your Servicing Now or Contact Us for More Information About Honda Car Servicing in Mumbai.

We provide you with 5 tips to maintaining your tyres and increasing their shelf life.

• Maintain Correct Tyre Pressure The most important aspect of maintaining a car’s tyres is checking and maintaining the correct tyre pressure. Your owner’s manual will inform you the correct pressure for your tyres. Tyres lose air pressure after continuous driving and are needed to be refilled every month or so. Check the pressure on a fortnightly basis on all four tyres. The best time to do so is when in the morning, when the air is cold. You should also keep a tab on the PSI level of spare wheel on a monthly basis. You can also choose to fill your tyres with nitrogen, which needs to be checked only once in two months.


• Rotate TyresTyre rotation is important for reducing uneven tyre wear. Regular rotation of your tyres will save your money by increasing the life of your tyres and give you a smoother and a safer ride. In front wheel drive cars, the front tyres are subjected to more wear and tear as compared to the rear ones. Your manual will tell you when to rotate the tyres on your vehicle. Make sure you also find out, if they are directional tyres or non-directional tyres. The rotating technique is different for both. If you have a full sized spare, you could choose to rotate it along with the other tyres, and use the most worn out tyre as a spare.

How To Boost Your Vehicle’s Performance

Our mentality always tends to expect maximum output from minimum input. We often come across queries of how to boost up vehicle performance? MY Vehicle is Not Performing? and all. Hence we thought of giving you some tips to clear out the air by sharing our thoughts. The most common myth is that vehicle performance increases by tweaking up of engine and by Car Servicing; which is an absolute wrong thought. Agreed that vehicle performance is mainly because of engine and transmission but there are other things which also contribute significantly. We will suggest you various methods of increasing your vehicle’s performance and it’s you choice to choose the one which fits into your budget. This information can be used both two and four wheelers Users.

Engine – It’s well known that engine is the heart of any automobile. What kind of boosting can be done on an engine?

• Performance Air Filter – The most common way of increasing the performance of the vehicle. The greater pore size will allow more airflow into the engine which enhances combustion; hence better output.

• Performance Exhaust System – Exhaust systems also play crucial role during the power delivery. A smooth free flow exhaust system ensures that performance increases.

• ECU Tuning – This one is applicable only for vehicles with an ECU. Aftermarket performance ECU’s yield superior performance from the vehicle.

• Higher valve lift via camshaft – Now this needs some special skills to work on. Design and machining of camshaft is difficult but if done properly, performance increases comprehensively. This should be done by people with good knowledge.

• Ram Air Intake – Now this one is a little tricky but it can be done by using some basic engineering. Increasing the pressure in the inlet manifold using the dynamic behaviour of the vehicle.

Tyre and Tyre Related – Performance can be rated both on speed, acceleration as well as handling.

• For better handling make sure that one chooses a better tyre size, profile and thread before selecting one. In the market one would get plenty of options but the ultimate choice will lay with the customer and his/her requirements.

• For bikes – Top speed of a bike can be increased if one changes the sprocket ratio. One can get aftermarket sprocket set which comes with a chain too. Smaller sprocket will increase top speed but the torque will be compromised.

Myth Of Increasing Performance -

• Higher Octane/Cetane number fuel will not boost the vehicle’s performance until and unless the engine is running on high compression.

• Cold Air Intake System – Cold air intake system improves the performance of a vehicle but it is barely noticeable. The reason for that, the drop in temperature of air after the usage of cold air intake system is small which hardly boosts up any performance.

The Mobilio comes across as a less boxy design. Its squat stance belies the fact that it has class-leading ground clearance. The face has the typical Honda family look as it is 7 Seater MPV Car. The Mobilio sits on the same platform as the Brio and Amaze, but it has an extended wheelbase. The roof tapers slightly towards the end. But, a blacked-out D-pillar gives it a sort of sedan look, making it appear less bulky. The rear window sill has a dip, which gives it a bigger glass area.

The cockpit features concentrated high-functionality controls with luxurious silver trim to enhance driver satisfaction.  Triple analog 3-dimensional combimeter and a wealth of other controls are at the driver’s fingertips, enhancing the convenience and pleasure of driving.  

The concept of the Honda Mobilio package is to offer a convenient and

comfortable cabin room like a sedan. At 4386 mm long, 1683 mm wide & 1603 mm tall with a wheelbase of 2652 mm and mimimum turning radius of only 5.2m*, the Mobilio is highly maneuverable and convenient for city driving. Customers can be confident in the Mobilio’s best in class 189-mm ground clearance even when facing bad roads and stormy weather. (*For Petrol Variants)  

For the Utility seeking customer, Mobilio provides one class above versatility. The 2^nd Row seat is a 60:40 split fold-and-tumble type with slide & recline option so that customer can adjust the space as per his requirement. To provide comfort to all family members when they are together in the Mobilio, Honda has put considerable effort into using engineering design technology to ensure the third row of seats has sufficient legroom without a cramped feeling.  The 3^rd row seat is a 50:50 spilt folding type which can be reclined for extra comfort. Once fold flat, it can be quickly and conveniently tumbled forward to maximize the cargo space.  Entry and exit for the third row is very convenient due to the newly-designed door line and the one-motion fold-down function of the second-row seat. The raised roof lining provides generous headroom for second-row and third-row passengers while creating enough space to include a rear air-conditioner panel.  

The Honda Mobilio interiors have been made keeping the focus on proving Comfort, Convenience and Capacity. The door pockets have ample space to hold bottle holders and other utility items. Long armrests have been provided for comfort position and sufficient capacity to accommodate different luggage items. The angle and height of the Mobilio’s cargo area is optimized for user convenience while loading and unloading. The base cargo area for Mobilio is a generous 223 L which can be enhanced to 521L in the 3^rd row fold configuration.
