With the passage of time, the temperature has dropped day by day, and most parts of the country have gradually developed a cold winter atmosphere. So how do cars maintain them in winter? I believe that all car owners are very concerned about this topic, winter frost, fog, rain and snow, low temperature, these bad weather conditions, not only to the driver friends to drive a lot of difficulties, but also the various parts of the car is also prone to many failures, in order to ensure driving safety, winter car maintenance is particularly important.
When the owner of the car is driving in such cold weather,
What do I need to pay attention to for paint maintenance?
Let's talk about it.
How to maintain car paint in winter.
1, into the winter, first to the car paint surface for inspection, if there is damage on the paint surface of the car, must be timely paint treatment, only in this way so that the scratches on the car will not expand, but also to avoid corrosion after snow.
2, after the snow in winter, we must clean up the snow immediately, otherwise the snowflakes are corrosive and will corrode the paint. Long-term cleaning is the same as rain in summer, you can see that there are rain stains, and it will make the paint lose its luster.
3. The paint surface of the whole car is waxed or sealed. In such a cold winter, it is recommended that the owner of the whole car paint for a side sealing glaze treatment, sealing glaze is to cover the paint surface of the car with polymers to enhance the anti-wear ability of the paint surface, he has the characteristics of acid rain resistance, corrosion resistance and so on. After sealing the glaze, the number of car washes can also be appropriately reduced.
For car owners who suspect that the glaze is expensive, you can use some anti-freeze, corrosion-resistant car wax to wax the whole car, which can not only make your car look more beautiful, but also protect your paint surface.
4, to the car to wear car clothes, this is to be done before the snow, will also be anti-corrosion, and relatively fast, but a person to the car to wear clothes is still more complicated, car clothes are generally very heavy, so a little inconvenient.
In addition, in addition to the maintenance of the car paint surface, we also need to pay attention to the following maintenance matters:
1, before entering the winter, first of all to check whether the water tank antifreeze is invalid, the general maintenance shop has the corresponding tools, mainly to check the freezing point of the antifreeze. Depending on the region where the vehicle is located, change the antifreeze of different types.
If it is in the alpine region, such as the northeast and northwest regions of our country, the requirements for antifreeze are correspondingly higher; also check the oil, the alpine area recommends replacing the synthetic oil in winter and checking the glass cleaning liquid.
2, check the warm air, placed a summer of warm air, often there will be failures, it is best to try whether there is hot air, whether the fan operation is different, whether the duct is unobstructed. Sometimes the problem encountered is that the antifreeze in the warm wind and water pipe does not flow for a long time, and the condensation blocks the circulation pipeline, although it does not affect the driving, it is very troublesome to maintain.
3, check the tire, winter rubber will become hard and brittle, not only the friction coefficient will be reduced, but also easier than other seasons to leak, tire. You should always clean up the inclusions in the tire pattern to avoid using tires with large wear, and it is best to have the same brand, the same pattern, and the same specifications. In winter, the air pressure is low, and the tire must be full of gas to prevent puncture.
4. In a low temperature environment, the capacity of the battery is much lower than that of room temperature. Therefore, in winter, the electrolyte of the battery should be replenished in time, and the terminal post of the battery should be cleaned at the same time, and special grease should be coated to protect it and extend the life of the battery. If the vehicle is parked in the open for several weeks, the battery should be removed to prevent the battery from freezing and damaging.
The above is some of the details that need to be paid attention to in winter car maintenance, have you mastered it? Finally, Xiaobian reminds everyone that the winter car does need to be heated in advance, but it is necessary to pay attention to the way and method.
Winter temperature is very low, the car can not be parked in a constant temperature area, and the change in temperature, will make the oil inside the car have a condensation, after the flow of poor, naturally will affect the normal use of the car. For this reason, when driving in winter, it takes about a minute to drive a hot car, and if you are in the northern region, it will take a little longer.
It is best not to heat the car in place for a long time, which will increase the emission of exhaust gases, and will also make the carbon deposit problem of the engine more serious, and even lead to the engine pulling cylinder, so when we are in the hot car, the best way is to slowly heat the car when driving at low speed, and after the temperature of each component comes up, it can keep running normally.
