As the saying goes, cars ” Three points depend on opening, seven points depend on raising “, maintenance is far more important than driving.
However, some car owners don’t know how to maintain their cars. The vehicles have been driven for more than 8,000 kilometers and haven’t been maintained for the first time. During the use of the car, the performance of the car is getting worse and worse.
The car is a “Consumables” In the process of daily vehicle use, the mutual wear and tear of various parts will also cause consumption.
Once the wear exceeds the critical point, it may cause failure, so the car owner regularly inspects, cleans, lubricates and replaces the relevant parts of the car.
However, most car owners don’t know much about vehicle maintenance at all. Maybe the only thing they know is that the engine oil of the vehicle needs to be changed regularly. If there are some other problems in the vehicle, they will be at a loss, so at this time they can only hand over the vehicle to the staff of the 4 S shop to maintain the vehicle.
And in addition to imported models in China, The first insurance for domestic models is almost free, and there is no fee for oil replacement. The follow-up maintenance often costs a lot of money.
Therefore, the 4 S store will pay attention to these areas when the car owner subsequently maintains the car. While advising the car owner to maintain this, it also advises the car owner to maintain that.
Before talking about this issue, let me popularize it with everyone. What are the main contents of current car maintenance?
Current car maintenance mainly includes Maintenance of engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system and other parts 。 According to the driving conditions of the car, the manufacturer will formulate corresponding maintenance items, including replacing oil, oil filter element, brake disc and so on.
Such as changing engine oil, oil filter element and brake disc, these are all items that must be done after the car has driven a certain mileage. However, there is no need to do the following projects, and doing them will not solve the problems of the car itself.
Recommendation to car owners: No matter how expensive the car is, there is no need to do “these maintenances” after the first insurance, don’t be fooled
1、 Leather seat maintenance
Chinese people like to choose high-end models when buying cars, and the seats and door interior panels of high-end models are basically made of leather. Things made of leather need maintenance, just like the leather sofa at home, which needs to be taken care of with maintenance agents.
But although car seats are said to be made of leather, they actually have composite components. It’s not as expensive as the leather seats at home. Just go to the car wash at ordinary times and ask the car washer to help take care of it. There is no need to maintain the seat specifically.
2. In-depth engine maintenance
Maybe when you hear the name of this project, you think this project is relatively high-end.
In fact, it just poured detergent into the engine and let the car idle. You may spend four or five hundred yuan in just a few minutes, The effect is definitely not very obvious.
If a maintenance worker proposes this maintenance to you at this time, everyone chooses to refuse.
3. Tire maintenance
Tire maintenance can’t be said to be ineffective. Strictly speaking, it has no effect at all.
Most of the tire maintenance seen by Xiaobian is paying IQ tax. Tire maintenance mainly involves cleaning the tires, then polishing and wax them. Except that it looks more comfortable in appearance, it has basically no protective effect on tires.
In order to clean the effect, some black-hearted shops will also use chemical reagents with super decontamination ability. While cleaning stains, they will also Accelerate the aging of tires , thus, If there is a problem with the tire, you can directly change the tire These superficial efforts are completely unnecessary.
The above maintenance is not only expensive, but the actual effect is very inobvious. Maybe the problems that existed before your maintenance still exist after the maintenance, which is a waste of money.
Therefore, our money must be spent where it is practical, For vehicle maintenance, we should pay more attention to these places.
Don’t be blind about vehicle maintenance, it’s more worth spending money on these places!
1、 Ball cage sleeve
I wonder if everyone knows about this part. The ball cage sleeve is the protective sleeve of the automobile universal joint, and is also the dust isolation part of the engine position, Many car owners may not understand this part.
However, its role can’t be ignored. If this part is damaged, it can’t isolate the external dust, which will affect the parts inside the car, so this part should be replaced in time.
2. Spark plug
The spark plug is the key reason why the car engine can catch fire. Under normal circumstances, it only takes a few seconds for a car to ignite. If there is something wrong with the spark plug, the owner may not be able to start the car for a long time.
When encountering this situation, the master of the repair shop usually checks the spark plug. If the spark plug is broken, it will be no problem to replace it with a new one.
3. Three-way catalytic converter
The three-way catalytic converter is the most important part in the exhaust pipe. The three-way catalytic converter is made of rare metals, so the price of the three-way catalytic converter is very expensive. It costs as little as 3,000 yuan to replace a three-way catalytic converter as much as five or six thousand yuan.
The main problem of the three-way catalytic converter is excessive carbon deposition, which leads to a certain degree of blockage of the three-way catalytic converter and difficulty in air inlet and outlet. At this time, the vehicle will appear Insufficient power, difficulty in ignition, excessive exhaust emissions And other problems, In serious cases, it will also lead to an increase in vehicle fuel consumption.
