As the saying goes, "an autumn rain brings a cold", and the most obvious feeling in autumn is that the temperature difference between day and night becomes larger. If you don't pay attention this season, you will catch a cold and get sick. Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? In autumn, not only people are prone to get sick, but cars are also prone to "seasonal diseases"! What? Cars also have "seasonal diseases" Answer: Yes! If there is no timely and effective seasonal maintenance, there will be many small problems in the car, and many a mickle makes a mickle, which may eventually become a major fault. Therefore, when the season has changed, these seasonal "small problems" cannot be ignored. Learning a few tricks in advance to cure these "small problems" can easily protect you from driving in autumn, but don't accept it quickly!
1. You have a static phone, please check it. Name of "caller": Qiu.
In the crisp autumn season, you should enjoy comfort, but static electricity has to run out to "brush the sense of existence". I didn't know how hateful this static electricity was until I took off my sweater and my hair burst. When you open the door, turn the car key and touch the steering wheel ... the static electricity in the car can make you get goose bumps and energetic immediately. This sense of crispness makes it impossible to ignore its existence. What is even more frightening is that static electricity is "hot" when it is light, and it will make people have headaches and irritability when it is heavy. It may also cause damage to vehicle electrical appliances and even cause potential safety accidents. Therefore, no matter for people or cars, static electricity has to go!
In fact, there are many ways to deal with the static electricity of diaphragm people. For example, when driving, you can wash your hands first to keep your hands moist, so that there will be no static electricity when your hands touch the car. In wearing, you can try to choose cotton clothes, avoid wearing chemical fiber clothes, and also effectively prevent static electricity.
In addition to taking precautions, there are some small items that can help eliminate static electricity in the car. For example, a small car humidifier can increase the humidity of the air in the car, make the car less dry, and naturally there will be no static electricity. You can also buy a key chain to eliminate static electricity. When driving, you can touch the place you want to touch first to eliminate static electricity in advance, and you can also eliminate static electricity by carrying it with you.
Second, God covered the curtains and forgot to open them? Wake up ~ you are just blinded by autumn fog!
There is a big temperature difference between day and night in autumn, so everyone will pay special attention to keep warm in the morning and evening. But the owner should not only prevent himself from catching cold, but also prevent the window from fogging. When the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car is large, the hot air exhaled by the people in the car will condense into water vapor when it meets the cold window, forming a layer of fog on the car glass, blocking the line of sight. The fog on the front and rear windshields blocks the line of sight most seriously, and many drivers and friends are also deeply troubled. In fact, the easiest way to defog the window is to make good use of the defogging function on the car. Generally speaking, the door is equipped with specially designed buttons for defogging the front windshield and the rear windshield. You can quickly defog by directly turning on this function.
The temperature is suitable in autumn, and we can also open windows or skylights for ventilation to prevent the windows from fogging. But if the wind is too strong and chilly outside, it is not recommended to use this method, otherwise it will be foggy outside the window and a headache will come to you! When it is inconvenient to open the window for ventilation and defogging, you can also turn on the air conditioner and open the external circulation mode to easily defog.
Finally, there is another folk prescription to try. A bottle of detergent, a piece of dry cloth, becomes a "demisting artifact" in seconds. Specific operation: Mix the detergent with water (1: 6), evenly spread it on the car glass, and then wipe it with a dry cloth until there is no trace. The active agent in detergent can change the surface tension of water, so that the fog drops can quickly condense into large water drops, which plays an anti-fog role. In fact, this method has the same effect as the defogging agent on the market, and it is a preventive measure. The defogging effect can last for about half a month.
Third, autumn skin care: people rely on toner and cars rely on "anti-dew"!
Skin care experts will pay special attention to skin hydration in autumn, but the secret of "skin care" of our car is "waterproof"! When the dew is heavy in autumn, the "skin" of the car will be more likely to be "injured". When you wake up in the morning, you will see crystal dew hanging on the car body. Don't be surprised and ignore the dangers of dew. If the car itself is damaged or scratched, the dew in autumn will "take advantage of it" and erode the car body, causing further corrosion.
If possible, it is recommended that you park your car in an underground garage or a sheltered carport. It is necessary to find the "wound" of the car body in time and repair it. When changing seasons, you can also do an all-round car paint maintenance.
Fourth, the car should be "warm" in autumn, and it will be "cold" if it is not heated correctly!
After the National Day, the weather in the south will enter a short autumn, but many cities in the north have already entered the "winter". The Meteorological Bureau predicted early that this year may be the coldest year in 60 years. Are you shivering after hearing the news? Therefore, we will add clothes to keep warm, and the hot car depends on the arrangement!
However, you must not think that the longer the hot car is, the better, because a long time hot car may produce a lot of carbon deposition and increase fuel consumption. Hot car is needed in cold weather because the fuel supply system often can't work normally before the carburetor engine reaches the working temperature, so it is necessary to open the choke valve to heat the car at idle speed, otherwise the speed will be unstable or even turn off, but as long as the engine can reach a stable and normal idle speed, it can operate normally.
Generally speaking, the correct warm-up is to start on the road from 30 seconds to 1 minute after the car starts, and it is necessary to keep driving at a low speed at first, and the engine speed should not exceed 3000~3500 rpm. If the engine and gearbox are worn out because of the high speed, it is not cost-effective.
In addition, warm reminder: autumn is also a season that is easy to get tired! "Spring sleepy, autumn sleepy, summer sleepy, winter sleepy in March" ... I wonder how many people are "fighting" with the autumn drought at the moment? This inexplicable fatigue in autumn will reduce the adaptability of drivers, so drivers and friends must pay attention!
