Common sense of car maintenance in Winter
The winter is approaching, whether our car should be in different maintenance, thus avoiding the “fever”? Here simply chat a few winter maintenance tips, hope it can help you.
1 Timely replacement of engine antifreeze
Experts advise, abnormal sound in winter, the wind pipe is unobstructed. Water heaters sometimes encountered in the long-term antifreeze does not flow, condensation blocked circulation line of cases, while not affecting traffic, abnormal sound, the wind pipe is unobstructed. Water heaters sometimes encountered in the long-term antifreeze does not flow, condensation blocked circulation line of cases, while not affecting traffic, driving need to check the antifreeze, the amount of antifreeze must be appropriate. Pay attention to different types of products of different brands do not mix, but also according to formal models to choose different brands of antifreeze, the antifreeze if you use poor quality, not only will the water temperature rise, but also corrosion of the engine. In addition, the use of warm air in winter and to the season, stop using the ventilation system in a very long time, he will fail, so the owners have no friends, first try the hot air fan operation with or without repair it, it is very troublesome. With the problem must be repaired in time to the repair shop, so, your car will be able to survive the winter.
(2) timely replacement of oil
Climate change, the oil viscosity will also change, usually increase mechanical wear and tear, so that the engine and other important parts are subject to different degrees of damage, oil lubrication of the car in winter are higher, and lubrication lubricating oil into the winter and summer oil, experts suggest that the winter to replace oil as soon as possible. Moreover, both in Guangzhou and in the north, should replace the oil. In particular the use of a longer time, the color black, oil adhesion variation should be replaced, in order to ensure the engine starts running smoothly.
In addition, the experts also suggested that the winter when you can replace the high scale of gasoline, if you usually use 90 # gasoline can be exchanged for 93 oil. Because of lower ambient temperature in winter car, the use of high-scale burning of gasoline higher, stronger ignition point. Also, driving to or farther north in Hunan area, but also pay attention to the glass of water, although the use of glass in the winter the amount of cleaning will be significantly reduced, but can not be ignored, some people more than in other seasons with the amount of water and washing water instead, but often substitutes for those in the winter ice, so winter is not used, zero degrees Celsius in the winter environment should replace the glass of water freezing in the winter, or, more simply, by adding an appropriate proportion of the water in the glass of alcohol can to reduce the freezing point, freezing purposes.
3 and pay attention to check the tire
Rubber tires in the winter will harden and relatively brittle, will reduce the friction coefficient, tire pressure is not too high, but more can not be too low, the external temperature is low, the tire pressure is too low, soft tires can accelerate the aging of a serious and increasing tire with the ground contact, friction will accelerate and reduce tire life.
In winter they often clean up inclusions within the tread, try to avoid using up more than once tires, replacing worn larger and different patterns of different brands of tires. Different inside and outside tire wear, reducing wear and tear in order to ensure safety, the tire should be replaced regularly to bits.
