In order that the engine does not overheat, coolant should also be kept in between.

When not in use of the car, lift the wiper blade or cover it with paper.

So that, it does not come in contact with the wind shield. 

Also, we should also keep checking that the rats are not inside the car.

Because, sometimes rats can come because of food items or empty packets.

Because, if the air pressure in the tire is not right then the car will not be able to run smoothly.

Use of AC

We should use AC only when needed. That is, turn off the use of AC at red light or when the car is parked. 

If the cooling of AC is not getting right then get it serviced immediately. 

By the way, during the rainy season there is moisture in the atmosphere, which affects the cooling of the AC.
