Cars are often products that we choose after careful selection, after all, it’s not like buying groceries is a very simple thing. We will also pay more attention to car maintenance in the future, but we still need to know about these wrong ways of car maintenance.
1. Apply lubricant to the bolts and nuts on the tire
The wheels are exposed to the outside all year round, and are threatened by wind, sun, and rain. Therefore, the bolts and nuts on the tires are prone to rust. Therefore, some car owners apply lubricating oil to the bolts and nuts, which is actually very dangerous.
2. Shower your car in cold water after exposure to sunlight
After taking a shower, you will soon notice that after taking a shower, your car will immediately stop cooking. Because after the car is exposed to the sun, the temperature of the car paint surface and the engine is very high. Thermal expansion will shorten the life of the car paint and gradually lose its luster. Frequent “cold bath” for the car will eventually lead to chapping and peeling of the car paint.
3. The brake oil can be left unchanged
Most vehicle manufacturers require the brake oil to be replaced every 40000 km/2, but many teachers will tell you that it’s okay if you don’t replace it. Whoever drives until it’s scrapped has never changed the brake oil.
Because the failure of brake oil is not due to the inability to apply the brakes or the obvious weakening of the braking force, which cannot be felt during daily driving!
4. Frequent oil changes
If the engine oil you add is a good Total synthesis engine oil, it can basically run for 8000 to 10000 kilometers. There is no need to change it frequently.
Moreover, there are many types of engine oil, and it is important to confirm whether it meets the requirements of your vehicle when adding it, otherwise damage to the components inside the vehicle will be significant.
