Cover outlets and intakes
To prevent small insects and rodents from entering your car, cover all outlets and intakes with a cloth but remember to remove these before starting your car. Put a reminder on the driver window which will help to alert you before you start your car.

Wiper care
Use kitchen plastic wrap on your wiper blades to prevent the wipers from sticking to your cars windscreen.

Cover your car
Park your car indoors, under a roof or make use of a car blanket or cover which can prevent dirt from getting onto your car.

Battery maintenance
Start your vehicle every 3rd day and let it idle for 15 to 20 minutes.
