Precautions for automobile maintenance in rainy season

In this rainy and dry communication season, after the baptism of heavy rain, cars will have problems more or less, so it is very important to do a good job in car maintenance. If the maintenance measures are not in place, it will easily affect the use of the car. Today, I will share with you some precautions for car maintenance in rainy season.

Pay attention to vehicle surface maintenance.

Whether the car looks beautiful or not is the first requirement of many people, so the surface maintenance of the car has become a crucial item. After the heavy rain, clean the car in time, otherwise it will easily lead to rust on the bottom of the car. At the same time, rain has a strong corrosive effect on car paint, which will cause damage to car paint over time, so it is best to give the car a paint beauty in the rainy season.

Please pay attention to the maintenance of the ignition system.

Automobile ignition system directly affects the performance and function of automobile engine, so don't ignore the ignition system. In rainy days, cars may leak electricity because of wet ignition system, which makes it difficult to start the engine. In this case, dry the inside and outside of the distributor and wires with a dry paper towel or dry cloth, then spray desiccant on the distributor cover, battery connector, spark plug, high voltage line and ignition coil, and then start the engine later.

Pay attention to the use and replacement of wiper.

Wipers play a very important role in rainy days, so we should check and maintain them more carefully. Whether there is vibration or abnormal sound, how the wiping state is, whether the swing is uniform, etc. Need to be checked. The owner can pull up the wiper and check whether it is damaged and the elasticity of the rubber sheet with his fingers. If the blade is aged, hardened and cracked, it should be replaced in time.

Clean the air filter and air conditioner filter.

The air quality is poor in rainy days, so it is necessary to clean the air filter and air conditioning filter element in time. If the air filter is not cleaned in time, it will be dirty and affect the service life of the engine. In addition, if the air conditioner filter is not cleaned in time, the air conditioner will not work normally.

Pay attention to the maintenance of automobile chassis

After the rainy season, will you find the car "joints" loose? Especially during holidays, you may go to many unfamiliar places. Complicated road conditions are easy to cause slight scratches on the automobile chassis, the transmission part and suspension part will be loose and damaged, and the chassis is easy to rust. In case of heavy rain, the car should be cleaned in time when it comes back, otherwise it will lead to sludge accumulation in the gap under the car, which is the place where moisture can hide and the place where it is most prone to rust. This is not only to maintain our car, but also to ensure our safety.

Braking and water removal can not be ignored

When the rainy season comes, if water enters the brake fluid, during the braking process, the high temperature of friction will produce water vapor, which will be compressed in the brake fluid, resulting in brake failure. In the rainy season and other seasons with high air humidity, some brake fluid absorbs water seriously, and water droplets can be seen on the brake fluid oil cup cover, so be sure to check the brake fluid during maintenance to ensure your driving safety. Finally, try to avoid lightly stepping on the brakes when driving in rainy days, which can not only prevent accidents such as rear-end collision and rollover, but also restore the drying of the brake system with weakened function after passing through the water-logged section.

Check the oil in time.

When the automobile engine works at high speed, the piston and cylinder wall, connecting rod bearing bush and crankshaft are closely matched. If these mating parts are not fully lubricated, dry friction will occur. The heat generated by dry friction in a short time is enough to melt the metal, causing parts to be damaged or even stuck, so check the oil in time. One-day water intake of engine oil will lead to deterioration of engine oil and loss of lubrication. At this time, it is necessary to change the engine oil suitable for the car in time to ensure driving safety.

I hope the above-mentioned knowledge of car maintenance in rainy season can help you. In the rainy season, car owners should pay more attention. In daily life, it is necessary to nip in the bud and maintain it in time after the rain, so as to prolong the service life of the car and gain more use value.
