As we turn up the heaters in our cars, when was the last time your cabin air filter was changed?

Cabin / pollen filter

                 

This is a minor item ($20-$35) but commonly overlooked. They're usually full of dust, insects, add some heat its perfect place for bacteria and mold to reside. If you have allergies and are susceptible to dust this something you should get checked.

The cold weather also places a greater strain on your battery.

If you're finding your it takes that little longer to start or is just not feeling right, now might be a good time to get your battery checked. With right equipment its quite easy to see if its a charge or battery issue.
