BRRR! Temperatures are dropping here at King Kia and it’s time to spread the warmth. This week we have a few tips to help you and your Kia stay warm no matter what that thermometer might be saying. Check them out and stop in to see our team to upgrade into a brand new, warm Kia vehicle this January! We hope to see you soon! 

Park in the garage 

• When it gets bone-chilling outside, it’s important to keep your ride warm. Parking in your garage or even a covered space will help keep your vehicle a few degrees warmer and will help shield your ride from the elements. 

Invest in a remote start system

• Before heading out into the cold, start your vehicle about 10 to 15 minutes before you’re ready to hit the road. This will help get your engine warmed up while you finish getting ready for the day! 

Check for anti-freeze in your radiator 

• Running on just water inside your radiator can cause your engine to freeze which means it could take longer to warm up. If you use anti-freeze inside your radiator, your vehicle is likely to warm up faster and defrost your frozen toes! 

Install a block heater on your engine

• This is typically the fastest way to heat up a chilled engine and help warm up the cabin of your vehicle. A block heater has been known to work better with engine components and has less wear in the long run. 

Heated seating 

• Most vehicles now offer heated seats as either a standard or add on option, we encourage you to invest and keep your backside warm on the chilly days you may encounter!
