Lahore conditions that wear on your car
- Summer heat: June highs routinely pass 40°C. Check coolant, battery and AC before the hot season.
- Monsoon (about July to mid-September): flooded roads can damage electrics and brakes. If the car stalls in water, do not restart it.
- Smog season: keep the engine tuned and filters fresh. Smoky vehicles can be fined.
- Traffic and rough roads: brakes, clutch and suspension wear faster in stop-start Lahore traffic.
