The arrival of the car has improved our travel efficiency and changed our way of life, but buying a car and using a car will also bring us some troubles, as the saying goes: buying a car is easy to maintain a car, for the current office workers, buying a car is not a difficult thing, but after buying a car, you need to buy insurance, refueling, maintenance, etc., these are a big economic expenditure.
Especially the cost of fuel vehicles is getting higher and higher, fuel prices continue to rise, now No. 92 gasoline has entered the 8 yuan era, plus a tank of oil more than 400 yuan, in addition, there are many illegal fines, parking fees and car wash costs, etc., now the cost of car washing is also rising, at present, ordinary washing a car needs 30 yuan, under normal circumstances, a month needs to wash 2 times the car, that is to say, a month needs 60 yuan car wash fee, a year needs 600-700 yuan.
Many car owners in order to save car wash fees, choose to wash their own cars in their spare time, but many car owners do not understand the way to wash the car, in addition, there are many parts of the car can not touch the water, so there will be a fault problem after washing the car, no matter whether your car is expensive or not, when washing the car, these 3 places do not wash with water, wait until the overhaul is late! Let's take a look.
1. Exhaust pipe
Car exhaust pipes have been exposed to the outside for a long time, and there are no protective measures, so a lot of dust will be attached, when the owner washes the car himself, he sees that the exhaust pipes are very dirty, and he will definitely rinse them clean, but this practice is not correct, because the exhaust pipes are very easy to enter the water, as we all know, the exhaust pipes are connected to the engine, when the engine starts again, it is easy to cause the engine to enter the water, in addition, there is a three-way catalytic converter inside the exhaust pipe, and the role of the three-way catalytic converter is to purify the exhaust gas, Reduce the production of air pollutants, if the water is fed, it will reduce the role of the three-way catalytic converter.
2. Electronic equipment interface
Nowadays, there are more and more automotive electronic components, especially new energy vehicles, the body is covered with a large number of electronic parts, and these electronic parts are not like mechanical parts, because electronic parts are very afraid of water, when washing their own cars, we must avoid electronic components, especially electronic components interface, electronic components interface once the water may cause car failure problems.
3. Engine compartment
The engine compartment is not clear for a long time to ignore very dirty, and the engine compartment has a large number of key components, when we wash the car ourselves, do not easily wash the engine compartment with a water gun, especially the Volkswagen dry double-clutch transmission model, the Volkswagen dry dual-clutch transmission has a small hole, this hole once the water enters, it will cause the transmission failure, so when we clean the engine compartment, you can use special cleaners or cleaning foam, you can use a wet towel to wipe, to avoid the engine, the gearbox into the water.
All in all, there are many parts on the car that cannot touch the water, when we clean the vehicle ourselves, it is best to choose to clean the body or wipe the interior, and other key parts should not be cleaned without authorization, because we do not know the role of these parts.
