Although the car is now the most strange object for everyone, for many friends, being able to drive and knowing a car are still two different things. Especially in the repair and maintenance of this piece, there are always small partners who complain to us, many wearing parts on the car, once they go to maintenance, the 4S shop will let them change, and then they will have to spend more money, but they don't understand, they can only say that they will change, and I don't know if it's time to change......
Therefore, we will make a simple summary of the replacement cycle of some wearing parts, and we strive to be simple and direct, tell you the replacement cycle of various wearing parts, and let the big guy spend less money as much as possible
spark plug
Spark plugs are different in the replacement cycle according to different materials, because the service life of different materials is different.
In general:
Double platinum and iridium spark plugs can cope with 6-80,000 kilometers of driving, and iridium platinum spark plugs can do more than 100,000 kilometers;
The life of nickel alloy spark plugs is about 2-30,000 kilometers, and that of single platinum spark plugs is 4-60,000 kilometers;
And spark plug replacement, in fact, you can do it yourself, very simple, a few dollars of sleeve, this is the direct cost!
Small batteries
Under normal circumstances, as long as there is no frequent failure to start, the battery does not need to be replaced, or after a loss of power, after starting by charging or taking electricity, there is no short-term temporary shutdown and no power is needed.
Therefore, there is no standard battery replacement cycle, and it is completely related to personal usage habits. If it is always shallow charging and discharging, the battery life will be relatively long, and there is no problem for six or seven years, but if it is always parked for a long time, it will run a little distance when driving, and the battery may not work for one or two years.
The key question is whether the battery can be used, judge by yourself, and even if you replace it, you can do it yourself, buy a small battery online or offline, and disassemble it directly.
Brake pads
The replacement cycle of brake pads is essentially related to the weight of the car product itself, the material of the brake pads, and personal driving habits, just like some electric vehicles are heavy, but there is kinetic energy recovery, you can use less brakes, and the brake pads can be used for 60,000 or 70,000 kilometers. Although some fuel vehicles are very light, drivers like to drive violently, and the brakes may be 20,000 or 30,000 kilometers, and the brake pads will be replaced.
And when the brake pads are replaced, the vehicle itself will also "warn", such as steering wheel shake, brake howling, etc., so according to their own usage habits, every time they maintain, let the repairman see the wear of the brake pads, after all, the brake is the highest priority safety setting.
Three filters
The so-called three filters are the air filter, the air conditioning filter and the oil filter, the air filter is responsible for filtering the air entering the engine, the air conditioning filter is responsible for filtering the air into the air conditioner in the car, and the oil filter is responsible for filtering impurities in the oil.
Regarding the replacement standard of the three filters, many manufacturers have stipulated it relatively clearly, generally replacing it once every 10,000 kilometers, but it is worth noting. If you run non-paved and dusty road conditions for a long time, then the replacement cycle of the air filter and air conditioning filter can be reduced to 5000 kilometers, and the oil filter can be replaced according to the maintenance manual.
Two more words
No matter what kind of wearing parts are, everyone should not have the anxiety of replacement, and do not have the thinking that replacing is better than not changing, which will only make us spend more money. Master the replacement cycle, for some small parts that you can do, such as spark plugs, batteries, air filters, air conditioning filters, buy genuine products by yourself, and replace them yourself, which is a convenient thing, so that you can also save some money.
