Maintenance guides, written by the bays that do the work.
Pre-winter luxury prep, road-force verified alignment, seasonal collector-storage intake timing, and marque-specific cold-weather checks — written from the same MFP Standard protocol the Richmond Hill and Burlington bays run. Independent, 310S-licensed, and bolted to the live shop floor.
The guides
Pre-winter is the corner of the year.
The first sustained frost is the doorway on the road-salt cycle. The guides below cover the MFP Standard's pre-winter, road-force, seasonal-storage, and marque-specific lane — the posts we run when the bay is busy and the front desk sees the same pattern on the same chassis.
Maintenance guide
The October–November window is when a Porsche 911, Lexus GX, or weekend-driver M-car needs to be properly handed off for a GTA winter layup — not just parked. Pre-storage inspection timing, fuel and fluid stabilizers, brake prep for extended layups, and the full handoff into MFP's climate-controlled seasonal storage across Richmond Hill and Burlington.

The just-shipped road-force alignment, seasonal collector-storage intake, and marque-specific cold-weather checks across BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Porsche, Lexus, and Tesla — one itinerary before the salt arrives.
