Whether it is rainy or snowy, we still need to pay attention to many things about car maintenance. Let's take a look at what car maintenance should pay attention to in snowy days.
1, check the brake system
Whether the brake fluid is sufficient and the quality is deteriorated, and it needs to be added or replaced in time; Whether the brake is weakened or deviated; The pedaling force of the brake pedal and the position of the wheel locking point during braking. It is necessary to clean the pipeline part of the whole braking system.
2. Obey traffic rules and drive motor vehicles in a civilized way.
Fog, frost, rain and snow weather, urban roads and expressway are often in a slippery state, which is also the stage of frequent traffic accidents. When driving, you must concentrate on observing the road conditions, and don't grab the road, overspeed, slow start, slow brake, distance or drive slowly.
3. Pay attention to the outdoor parking position in snowy days. Choose a snowy place or stop after clearing the snow. Sometimes the snow in thin places will melt and freeze, and the wheels will freeze together after freezing, which will affect the start of the vehicle.
When parking in the open air on snowy days, be careful not to stop on the eaves or under trees. When the snow on the eaves and trees melts, icicles form. If the tip of the icicle melts off, it will hurt the car.
4. Tire pressure
The temperature dropped a lot in ice and snow days, which led to a drop in tire pressure. For example, the tire pressure of 2.5 will drop below 2.0 after the temperature drops 10 degrees. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement the tire pressure appropriately, but not too much, because the tire pressure is too high, which will affect the grip of ice and snow roads.
5. Check the wiper blade
Wipers are very necessary when it snows in winter. The temperature in winter is low, and the aging rubber wiper blade is stiff and can't be used. It's better to replace it to ensure safety.
