Ok I have a fair drive ahead of me 2mo and was wondering what checks I should carry out on my car?

I have check the tyre pressure and they are fine, have checked my oil and that is full and checked my coolant and noticed its quite low so I'll need to top that up. Can I just use tap water to fill it up or should I use distilled water?

Also, I remember reading somehwere that there is something you should top up only using distilled water, what is it?

Cheers for any help! :thumbsup:

Distilled water or de ionised water for batteries (unless it's amaintanance free type).

Don't forget to check your spare tyre is ok and top up your washer bottle and check your lights

Charge your mobile, and make sure you have the number of someone else who's going to be there. If you get lost/break down/other then it lets the group know what's happening, rather than waiting all day and wondering where the heck you've got to !

See you tomorrow mate.

So do I put water in where it says coolant? My mate says he uses some Toyota long life coolant stuff?! :wacko:

And it'll be nice to meet you Boro Sera, faces to names and all that! :thumbsup:

You can use distilled water for topping up if your stuck but get yourself a couple of litres of Forlife in the future, to stick in your Garage for topping up - that way you wont dilute it too much.

Cheers mate, I was just topping it up a bit so hopefully it'll be fine! :thumbsup:

It says in my manual don't just use water alone but I was only topping it up, might get it drained and filled properly when I get back to make sure. :yes:

Anyone else think Ryan is a tad over excited about tomorrow??  :lol:

I wouldn't say over excited, its about time my car got some checks done anyway, I can't go and do some enthusiastic driving and expect everything to be fine.

Scottish meets are pretty good too! :D :thumbsup:

I don't think I'll be able to sleep 2nite, feels like Christmas! :P
