Now living standards are good, basically every household to buy a car, remember a word especially popular it? It is "buying a car easy to keep a car difficult." Speaking of keeping a car and daily expenses you will feel is a bottomless pit.

Then the latter is to use the money to fill the hole, many people feel that as long as the money is spent, naturally car maintenance on the well, but still there will be some problems, even old driver in the car maintenance is also still make a lot of common sense error. I thought this was the result is self-defeating in the maintenance of damaged car!

In order that we can spend less money wasted in maintenance time, and today we're going to explore how to maintain? Here I have listed some common mistakes method of keeping a car, I hope we can bring help and reduce the cost of keeping a car.

1, waxing

Many people like to smear when waxing with circle way, in fact, is wrong.

Is the right way to be in a straight manner, in accordance with alternate vertical flow direction

Many people in to body waxing are habitually carried out in a circle way, in fact, this is not the right approach.

Waxing should correct manner in a straight line manner, alternating horizontal and vertical lines, then the direction of flow of rainwater on the last one, so as to reduce an effect paint surface concentric halo.

Although there are waxing is good, but do not frequent, so easy to cause damage to the car, because the wax contains an alkaline substance, long-term use makes the body dull.

If you live in the city and rainy, it can be appropriate to increase the frequency of waxing and acid rain. If there is no need frequent waxing is dry.

In addition the car itself had a protective wax do not need to paint too early to start waxing!

2, too much or too little oil

Because of less oil to lubricate the bearing and journal poor friction, exacerbated by the degree of wear, and may even lead to burning ZWZ accident.

But if too much oil in the engine work, crank handle, the big end of the connecting rod will produce severe agitation, not only increases the internal loss of engine power but also the oil spill on the cylinder wall, resulting in burning row of oil failure.

Thus, the oil should be controlled on the dipstick between offline like.

3, under the scorching sun car wash

Some owners feel that this will make the car body wash water quickly dried in the hot sun, in fact, produce local high temperature in the hot sun lens effect will make the paint layer car wash water droplets formed, over time we can imagine . This is also the reason why we want to wash the body dry as soon as possible.

4, long-term stop prude

Some car owners because of the larger costs such as parking fees higher fuel costs during the holidays will be open only once, in fact, the way the car is very harmful car, car parts due to long-term contact with air born rust, but also cause damage to the car battery, affecting life.

The best way is to open at least 1-2 times a week, running a thirty or forty minutes

5, to replace the three filter

Some owners feel as long as there is an idle question, is three strained out the problem, and thus ran 4S shop to do the replacement, while the 4S shop to earn time charge is naturally very happy to serve you, in fact, there is no need to replace the three filters together, just follow the recommendations of the manual mileage and local weather conditions just fine, no need to replace them all if you are driving less, only need to replace the oil filter can be.

6, in the summer to the car a bath with cold water

After exposure to the sun remember not to use cold water to the car to take a shower, because the paint surface and the engine temperature is very high, this time with cold showers will make the cars thermal expansion and contraction, causing life cut short car, paint wrinkled skin gradually appears or strike.

7, summer antifreeze into the water

Many older drivers to replace the antifreeze with tap water during the summer season, in fact, doing so is a big mistake, antifreeze is not just the functionality of the product can be used only in winter, it is not only freezing, as well as anti-boil, anti-corrosion function.

High summer temperatures, water easily lead to "boil" phenomenon, and antifreeze higher boiling point than water, in general, do not "boil." In addition, antifreeze additives which have scale agent composition, prevents the formation of scale in the water tank, and then water, after which a lot of mineral precipitation can produce scale, while heat influence tank may clog the engine cooling water system, leading to local temperature rise of the engine failure. So antifreeze products should be used all year round, it can protect the engine cooling system, the cooling system to reduce the failure rate.
