Matters needing attention in automobile maintenance in rainy season

When the rainy season is frequent, the probability of driving in rainy season is higher than before. So how do you keep your car in good condition during the rainy season? Car maintenance should be timely, so what should be done?

Wiper anti-aging hardening:

In rainy days, the use of wipers plays an indispensable role. Because the road surface and line of sight are not conducive to driving in rainy days, if the wiper cannot be used normally, it will bring great danger to your driving safety. Therefore, the inspection and maintenance of wiper should be more careful. If the wiper is found to have vibration or abnormal sound during operation, or it is uneven after scraping, it should be repaired in time.

The owner's self-inspection method can pull up the wiper from time to time and touch the rubber wiper blade with his fingers to check whether there is any damage and how elastic the rubber wiper blade is. If the blade is aged, hardened and cracked, it should be replaced in time.

Tire skid resistance:

The road surface is slippery in rainy days, and the friction coefficient between the road surface and the tire is greatly reduced. In addition to reducing the speed, it is also necessary to avoid sudden start and sudden braking to prevent the vehicle from getting out of control.

Therefore, before the rainy season comes, it is necessary to carefully check the tires. If serious wear is found and the tire tread disappears, it should be replaced in time. Some car owners will reduce the tire pressure every rainy season, the original intention is to increase the friction area between the tire and the ground, and then increase the adhesion. In fact, this can only be counterproductive, and it is more likely to lead to tire slippage. No matter what weather conditions, it is very important to maintain normal tire pressure.

Tire pressure monitoring instruments should be used to monitor tire pressure regularly, and visual inspection is not allowed. If the tire pressure is found to be too high, it will reduce the driving safety in rainy days.

The car body is resistant to acid rain erosion;

Many car owners think that it is not necessary to wash their cars in rainy days, and the rain just washes away the dust on the car body. In fact, this idea is all wet. On the contrary, it is more important to wash the car in time when it rains. This is because the acidic components in the rain have a strong corrosive effect on the automobile paint surface, which will damage the automobile paint surface over time, make the car body lose its original luster and even damage the paint surface. If the car body itself has scratches, acid rain will penetrate into the car body, leading to oxidation or corrosion of steel.

Therefore, in the rainy season, it is best to give your car a waxing maintenance. Waxing can effectively protect the car paint, which is equivalent to putting an invisible protective coat on the car to prevent the car paint from fading and aging.

Moisture-proof and mildew-proof interlayer:

The rainy season is hot and humid, and bacteria are easy to breed in the carriage. After the rain stops, dehumidification and sterilization should be done in time. When the air inside the car is humid, Qin Ying turns on the air conditioner, which can strengthen the air circulation inside the car, improve the air environment inside the car and effectively remove the humidity inside the car. In addition, the cleaning work in the car can not be ignored, and some dust and debris deposited in the gap between the foot pad and the seat will breed bacteria. In addition, emergency car vacuum cleaners will be used regularly for dust removal.

In order to prevent moisture and mildew, car owners can prepare more dehumidifiers or dehumidification box in the compartment or trunk where water vapor is easy to accumulate, and pay attention to regular inspection and replacement to dehumidify and prevent moisture for their cars.

Prevention of chassis corrosion and damage:

In the rainy season, the rain and silt on the road surface are easy to attach to the chassis, which will lead to rust of the chassis for a long time. Therefore, before the rainy season comes, we can consider derusting the automobile chassis, and armor the chassis if possible. This can not only protect the oil tank and other equipment, but also play the role of rust prevention, sound insulation and collision prevention.

Circuit fault safety:

The wet environment in rainy season is also prone to circuit failure. The circuit is likely to cause a short circuit when it meets water. When driving in rainy days, especially after wading, even if the engine runs normally, the circuit equipment should be dried in time. You can blow-dry or dry the circuit before trying to start preheating.
