Spring Into Action: Prepare Your Vehicle for Warmer Weather
As temperatures rise and road conditions change, the season brings your IVECO vehicle a new set of challenges.
Dust, heat, dry roads, and longer trips can all affect your vehicle’s components, leading to wear and potential breakdowns. That’s where IVECO’s expertise makes the difference.
Our dedicated Spring services paired with Genuine IVECO Parts will ensure your commercial vehicle is ready for the season ahead, keeping you efficient, safe, and on the road.
Let’s explore the key vehicle components that need attention this spring, and how regular checks by IVECO professionals help maintain peak performance and reliability.
9 Essential Checks to Keep Your Vehicle Performing in Warm, Dry Conditions
1. Tyres
Why It Matters: Heat increases tyre pressure, and worn or uneven tread can be dangerous on hot, dry tarmac. Plus, prolonged journeys can cause additional strain.
Signs of Wear: Cracking, low tread depth, bulging, or uneven wear patterns.
IVECO Expertise: We check for wear, pressure, and alignment, recommending replacements where needed. Our technicians ensure your tyres are ready for long, hot hauls.
2. Brakes
Why It Matters: Dry roads and higher temperatures demand consistent braking performance. Brake fluid can degrade faster in heat, and residual salt from winter may still affect brake parts.
Signs of Wear: Reduced responsiveness, squeaking, or grinding.
IVECO Expertise: Our spring service includes a full brake inspection. We use Genuine IVECO parts and fluids to restore full braking power and extend component life.
For further information on how to keep your brakes in top shape, check out our blog on brake maintenance tips.
3. Lighting Systems
Why It Matters: Longer daylight hours mean lights may be used less, but functioning brake lights, indicators, and headlamps remain crucial, especially for early mornings or evening driving.
Signs of Wear: Flickering, dimming, or cracked lenses.
IVECO Expertise: We test and replace worn bulbs and clean all housings, ensuring full visibility and legal compliance on the road.
4. Battery
Why It Matters: Warmer temperatures can speed up battery corrosion and reduce lifespan. Batteries weakened over winter may fail unexpectedly when the warm weather arrives.
Signs of Wear: Slow starts, warning lights, or visible corrosion.
IVECO Expertise: We test battery health, clean terminals, and replace if needed using IVECO-approved batteries that deliver consistent power in hot conditions.
Check out our blog on battery maintenance tips for further advice and guidance.
5. Power Steering
Why It Matters: Higher operating temperatures affect power steering fluid, and worn components may show more symptoms under the stress of higher heats.
Signs of Wear: Whining sounds, difficulty turning, or uneven steering response.
IVECO Expertise: We check fluid levels, belts, and hoses, refilling with approved fluids to maintain smooth handling.
6. Coolant & Oil Levels
Why It Matters: Engines run hotter in spring and summer. Low or degraded fluids can lead to overheating, reduced efficiency, or breakdowns.
Signs of Wear: Overheating, dirty oil, or coolant warnings.
IVECO Expertise: Our technicians check all levels, top up fluids, and recommend oil changes using high-performance lubricants to keep your engine cool and protected.
7. Windscreen, Mirrors, Lenses & Wipers
Why It Matters: Engines run hotter in spring and summer. Low or degraded fluids can lead to overheating, reduced efficiency, or breakdowns.
Signs of Wear: Overheating, dirty oil, or coolant warnings.
IVECO Expertise: Our technicians check all levels, top up fluids, and recommend oil changes using high-performance lubricants to keep your engine cool and protected.

8. Rubber Seals, Doors & Locks
Why It Matters: Spring warmth can reveal hardened or cracked rubber seals after winter. This can cause leaks, noise, or sticking mechanisms.
Signs of Wear: Whistling wind noise, stiff doors, or water ingress.
IVECO Expertise: We inspect all rubber components and lubricate locks and hinges for smooth, quiet operation and improved sealing.
9. Parking Heater Function (If Equipped)
Why It Matters: Even in warmer months, early mornings and higher altitudes can require cabin heat especially for overnight stays.
Signs of Wear: Lack of warm air, error codes, or inconsistent performance.
IVECO Expertise: Our team checks your parking heater for correct function and efficiency, ensuring comfort whenever you need it.
