Car knowledge—misunderstanding of car use

Car knowledge-misunderstanding of car use

As light as a swallow 2005-6-10, 01:14 AM After a large number of cars enter the family, it brings great convenience to our lives, or to go to work by car, or to travel on vacation, but some car owners arecarThe structure of the car is half-knowledgeable or blindly imitating the use of other vehicles, causing undue damage to the beloved car or causing an accident. In order to prolong the service life of the car and make it provide you with good service at any time, please pay attention to the following points:

1. Heavy use, light maintenance

A top-class Honda Accord sedan produced in Japan in 1997 driven by Mr. Chen. Since the car has never been abnormal since the purchase, Mr. Chen has not been maintained. In October 1999, when the car reached 60,000 km, the engineCamshaftSuddenly hug to death, timingbeltfracture,ValveAll the valve rocker arms are damaged.During the inspection, it was found that the engine of the carlubricating oilThe road is seriously blocked,pistonThe wear is also very serious. Mr. Chen had to overhaul the car, which cost more than 30,000 yuan.

In order to achieve high speed and increase power, high-end cars have rigorous and thorough structural design, and the corresponding maintenance and maintenance requirements are also high. But as long as the maintenance is carried out reasonably on schedule, it will never produce such serious consequences. And based on the mileage of 60,000 km, the maintenance cost is more than 1,000 yuan. However, most car owners place heavy use of their cars and light maintenance. As long as the car runs well, it will not be maintained as required. I didn't think of repairing until I was about to lie down. This is a misunderstanding in the concept of using a car.

2. Self-adjustment and maintenance

The structural principle of a car is more complicated. To adjust some precision parts or repair and maintain, you must have certain professional knowledge and skills, and you must have considerable experience and use some advanced instruments to accurately adjust or repair. If you blindly adjust and repair the vehicle without knowing a little about the structure of the vehicle, the working principle of its components, and the performance of the vehicle, it will often be self-defeating due to the slight difference.Like a Jetta owner who found two years agotirePartial wear, adjust the toe on its own, and the result is more adjustmenttireThe more severe the eccentric wear.Finally, we used four roundsLocatorAfter checking and adjusting, and implementing tire rotation, the fault was eliminated.

3. Add fuel and oil at will

Because the car is very delicate, it has corresponding technical index requirements for fuel, lubricating oil, brake fluid and coolant. The user should refer to the oil variety and label specified in the user manual, select high-quality oil, and add and replace it with quality and quantity, so as to avoid random use of oil without distinction. Otherwise, it will cause great harm to the vehicle. For example, some luxury cars require that the gasoline must be No. 93 unleaded gasoline; if the gasoline label is not up to Damage to the three-way catalytic device, resulting in unqualified vehicle exhaust.

4. Long-term use of cars and short-distance cars

Many people often use public transportation to go to work due to parking difficulties, and only use their cars during holidays. In order to prolong the life of the car, some people do not use a car as much as possible. In fact, this way of using a car is harmful to the car.First the engine andtransmissionThe surface of the transmission parts will rust because of being in direct contact with the air for a long time.ThenAccumulatorIt will also affect the service life due to long-term natural discharge. In addition, always using the car for short distances can also hurt the car. Because all parts of the car wear the most from starting to stable operation. In addition, once the car is started, the power consumed by the battery takes about 20 minutes to make up. Therefore, to remind users who hold the above views, you should use your car as much as possible, and only by allowing it to be active can it make it healthy and longevity.

5. Excessive washing and waxing

In order to make the car clean and beautiful, some users wash the car almost every few days and wax it once a week. In fact, it is very unscientific to do this, because frequent washing of the car will cause rust, especially the bottom of the car compartment, the bottom of the door and other parts, which are easy to cause rust and rot. Excessive waxing makes the car body lose its original brightness. Therefore, if the car is not very dirty, do not wash the car. In addition, it is best to wax once a month, and use neutral detergents and waxes that do not contain abrasive ingredients.

6. Add other devices by yourself

Private cars are homes for car owners to move. There is nothing wrong with pursuing passenger comfort and luxury. However, some car owners install various equipment in the car by themselves. This modification, if not handled properly, will bring about car performance and ease of handling. Adverse effects, leaving sequelae, endangering driving safety. Therefore, try not to modify the interior of the car, just a little decoration.
