A great place to start when winterizing your Mercedes-Benz is to flush and replace all of its fluids, especially the coolant. When you don't have the proper amount of antifreeze/water mixture, fluid can easily freeze inside of your radiator. Thankfully all you need to do is check your Mercedes-Benz owner's manual to see the proper mixture. A fluid that is often overlooked when winterizing a vehicle is wiper fluid. Most people assume their wiper fluid will word regardless of the weather, but when they go to use it in sub-freezing temperatures, they come to find out that their wiper fluid has frozen on them. Another great way to help your Mercedes-Benz be ready for winter is to make the change to winter tires. Unlike regular or all-season tires, winter tires provide more grip on slippery roads, and can even cut through the snow with relative ease. Because they are made with a different rubber compound, winter tires keep their elasticity longer than other tires, and this in turn provides better traction on winter roads.
