The 7 Degrees of Winter Tires

In Manitoba, Winter months are full of snow, slippery conditions and cold temperatures. Changing to Winter Tires can help keep you safe and save you money. Once the temperature dips below 7 degrees Celcius, it's time to switch to cold weather tires.

What are the benefits of driving with cold weather tires?

Winter tires feature deeper tread grooves than summer tires, making it easier to grip the road on ice and slippery snow surfaces. When the temperature drops below that 7 degrees, summer tires begin to lose their ability to grip and begin to harden. Winter tires are made of softer rubber and more flexible. They reduce hydroplaning on wet surfaces and assist in making steering and braking easier in winter conditions. Winter tires are safer on Manitoba roads in the winter.

Affordable Options

Craig Dunn Motor City has a wide variety of winter tire options. We are trained to assist you in finding the right tire for your vehicle, in a variety of price ranges. Craig Dunn Motor City is also happy to take part in the Winter Tire Program, a low interest financing option to purchase new winter tires for qualifying Manitoba residents.

Not All Tires are Equal

Take a look at the different types of tires below.

Visit Craig Dunn Motor City at 2345 Sissons Drive in Portage la Prairie for all your tire needs. Or use our Online Tire Store to find the tires that are right for you. If you already have winter tires - you can book your appointment online to change them!

Three common signs of a bad transmission

Signs of a bad transmission

Transmission troubles are fairly common unfortunately, but the good news is there are a variety of ways to catch the problem before it turns into an expensive repair. Interested in learning more? Keep reading and we’ll fill you in on all the important details!

Signs of transmission trouble

1. Stalled or delayed gear shifts

One of the best ways to tell your transmission is going out is a delayed or stalled gear shift. This sign is pretty hard to miss since you’ll most likely feel a jerk in the car as you accelerate. If you drive a manual, you may also find that it’s physically difficult to get the gears to shift when your transmission is failing.

2. Transmission fluid leak

The transmission is designed to completely enclose the transmission fluid, so if you notice a bright red fluid under your vehicle, you’re going to want to have the transmission checked out by a professional. The easiest way to tell if it’s transmission fluid is by putting cardboard under your car and keeping an eye on the color of the leaking fluid. Transmission fluid will typically be bright red in color, though it may also have a dark red appearance.

3. Dashboard warning light

Most vehicles have highly advanced systems in place to detect problems before the problem is even noticeable to the driver, so if your check engine light illuminates, you probably don’t want to ignore it. Identifying a problem early is key to saving yourself some money on transmission repairs, so make sure you pay attention to what your vehicle is trying to tell you.
