Driving and maintenance

How often should I wash my car? Here are 5 good tips for better (and less expensive) car washes: 1. Forget the most expensive wash. Choose a cheaper option with undercarriage wash. 2. Avoid the wax, the layer is so thin that it serves no purpose. 3. Spend time on water and brushes. In the edges and trim of doors and tailboard. 4. Check tyre pressure and windscreen washer fluid at the same time. 5. Wash the car more often in the winter to remove salt and debris.How do I maintain my car? You should check regularly to make sure there is enough oil in the engine and enough water in the radiator. It’s a good idea to routinely check the tyres for correct air pressure. This will guarantee you optimum safety while driving, and also save fuel. Your tyres will also last longer. Also, remember to wash your car regularly in the winter to remove salt and debris.What do I do when my car lease expires and needs to be returned?

Driving abroad

What do I do if my car breaks down when I am abroad? If your car has comprehensive insurance, SOS will assist you abroad if you become ill, have problems with the car, or have a traffic accident. The red insurance card has a telephone number for SOS: [+45 7010 5052](targetSelf:tel://004570105052 "SOS"). You do not need to have the card with you. We recommend downloading the SOS app to your smartphone. The app includes, among other things, a GPS function, which enables SOS to find your geographical location in case of a breakdown abroad.Where can I use my fuel cards?

There are five things you need to remember before and during a drive out of the country. 1. Always check with your employer first whether the car can be driven out of the country, and whether it is permitted to take the company car on holiday. 2. Make sure that you have the legally required safety equipment with you, such as a Reflective jacket, Warning triangle, First aid kit, or powder-based fire extinguisher. 3.

Here, you will need to take out liability insurance at the border. From July 1st. 2020, it is possible that your insurance company might send you the Green Card digitally so you can print it yourself. You always have to bring a physical copy, as it is not allowed to be shown on a mobile phone or tablet.  Find out more about the green card here **Red card** The red card is just the SOS telephone number: [+45 7010 5052](targetSelf:tel://004570105052 "SOS "), which provides assistance if you have comprehensive coverage.
