6 signals that tell you where you need to do maintenance
"Has there been anything wrong with your car lately?" Xiao Li asked casually while checking my car.
I frowned and thought about it: "It doesn't seem to be anything special, but I feel that the brakes are a little soft, and the fuel consumption seems to be higher than before." ”
Xiao Li nodded and said, "These are all signals that the car needs to be maintained." Do you know? The vehicle will actually tell you where you need to do maintenance through six major signals. ”
I was immediately interested: "Oh? What are the top six signals? ”

That day, I was at Xiao Li's repair shop, and I not only learned a lot about car maintenance, but also realized some important details that I usually overlooked.
"First of all, the brake system is the key to safety, and the soft brakes you say may be a signal that the brake fluid needs to be replaced." Xiao Li said as he checked my brake system.
My heart tightened, and I remembered the uneasiness I felt when I drove recently: "Then I also noticed that the power of the car seems to be not as good as before, what is going on?" ”
"A drop in power can be a sign that there is too much carbon in the engine or that the spark plug needs to be replaced." Xiao Li patiently explained.

I nodded as I listened, but I thought to myself, "Why didn't I pay attention to these signals before?" ”
"Also, the increase in fuel consumption you are talking about could be a sign of insufficient tire pressure or a decrease in engine efficiency." Xiao Li continued.
It dawned on me: "It turns out that these are the 'languages' of the car, but I didn't understand them before." ”

Xiao Li smiled and continued his explanation: "The fifth signal is abnormal noise, for example, the abnormal noise of the engine may be a signal of aging of the belt, and the abnormal noise of the suspension system may be a signal that the shock absorber needs to be replaced. ”
I couldn't take my eyes off it, and the knowledge was so practical to me.
"The last signal is that the exhaust is of an abnormal color, such as black smoke from the exhaust pipe, which may be a problem with the fuel system." Xiao Li concluded.

On the way home, I drove the car and reflected in my heart: "The car is like our body, which needs to be checked and maintained regularly. I was so careless before, but fortunately Xiao Li reminded me. ”
I decided that from today onwards, I should pay more attention to these signals of the car, and do timely maintenance to ensure driving safety.

A few days later, I followed Xiao Li's suggestion and gave the car a comprehensive maintenance. Looking at the new car, I feel much more at ease.
"In the future, you have to take good care of me." I could hear the car talking to me.
I smiled and responded, "Don't worry, I will." ”

Through this experience, I deeply realized the importance of vehicle maintenance. The six signals are like the "distress signal" of the car, reminding us of its needs. As car owners, we should learn to listen to these signals and give the car the necessary care and maintenance in time. In this way, our car can better accompany us through every day of ups and downs.
