Preparing the car by autumn

Advice №1. Diagnosis of the brake system.

It is assumed that everyone understands, the brakes are almost the most important in the whole car for accident-free driving.

Therefore, this is advice number 1. It is necessary to diagnose the brake system, check the resource  of brake pads, disks.  Is not the time to change the brake fluid? (Usually automakers recommend changing it once in five years, how it is necessary to do it for your particular car can be found in the car's manual). Control all aspects. Quality brakes are the guarantee of your family's safety.

Advice №2. Check the anthers! Protect the CV joints.

On the CV joints there is a significant load, so they are made of very strong materials. However, and the grenade has its own "Achilles' heel": dust, dirt, water, sand can very quickly put it out of action. Although the performance of the CV joints is not less than that of the car, in principle. Anthers are used to protect the CV joint. After the summer, be sure to check their condition. The anthers are torn imperceptibly, the dirt and sand are accelerated this procces, and the consequences are very sad. Replacement of the CV joints is an expensive procedure. Anthers must be replaced if they tore, cracks appeared in the folds or rubber lost its elasticity.

Advice №3. Struggle with poor visibility.

Morning mists, caused by temperature changes and high humidity, respond to the car with poor visibility. Misted glasses is not the most pleasant thing in a car. It is possible to minimize the consequences of autumn weather. For this:

• Change the salon filter. During the operation on the salon filter, various contaminants settle, which even without high humidity have the ability to condense, so if you use the filter for more than three months, it makes sense to update it. And it will be easier to breathe, and the glasses will be less foggy.
• You can just buy a special auto chemistry, the so-called anti-mist. By the way, during the Soviet Union, when it was difficult to get any of the equipment, the glass was rubbed with a mixture of a saturated solution of common salt and two parts of glycerin. Works till now.
• It will also be useful to clean the radiator: the fluff from the air intake, dust and small debris significantly reduce the efficiency of heating.

Advice №4. Replacing the wiper blades.

Also it is necessary to pay attention to the janitors. Are you sure that they cope with their task 100%? If not, then it is better to replace the wipers (there remain stains, drops, the brush grasps not the entire possible area). Experienced motorists advise  to carry with you these spare parts in the trunk.

In addition to the rain, from the wheels of the cars ahead is flying off the dirt ... Some car owners  advise  change only the rubber band on the wiper blades with the goal of saving. But, firstly, you are sure that you will do it qualitatively, and secondly, you will agree, the janitors are not the most expensive auto parts in the car.

To facilitate the task of brushes, you can buy special tools from the series - anti-rain. After windshield treatment with such a means, droplets at a speed of more than 60 km / h will self-roll, and through the roof. In the market of auto cosmetics are various means, the simplest of them operate only a few hours, and the procedure must be constantly repeated, some can be applied even during the rain, the most expensive ones are manufactured using the highest nanotechnology and glass processing with such a composition can be done at the service station . Accordingly, the cost of each product is different. So choose yourself. With "anti-rain" is also necessary to handle the headlight diffusers.

Be sure to use the light of near-headlights in bad weather. This will greatly facilitate visibility.

But in order not to blind them with the light of other drivers, perform a simple and inexpensive procedure for adjusting the headlight or polishing the headlights. You can make light adjustment on the Bosch Auto Service at 56/2 Arshakunyats Avenue by tel. (010) 49 02 70.

Advice №5. Dampness and corrosion. (Carcase, thresholds, arches, bottom)

Dampness affects all car systems negatively. Dashing summer driving (pebbles, gravel, sand) could leave small chipped and scratches invisible to the eye. But the dampness will find them immediately, it will instantly penetrate into the weakest places and start a destructive corrosion process, wet, but still warm weather - ideal conditions for the formation of rust.

Carefully inspect the carcase, thresholds, the bottom for chipped, dents, scratches, cracks and other things. Carry out anti-corrosion treatment.

You can do it both at a professional car service and on your own using a special car chemistry. The assortment is very wide, and you can always choose the necessary tool suitable by wallet. Be sure to pay attention to the closed cavities of the carcase. Airing in such places is almost non-existent, and the dust is hygroscopic and retains moisture for a long time. Therefore, closed cavities should be opened, washed and dried.

Advice №6. Humidity is also not our friend.

Humidity. It affects everything. On a wet morning, you can completely put the battery in, but never start a working motor. Check the insulation quality on high-voltage wires - cracks or even simple "zadubevanie" are unacceptable.

Then on the turn rubber caps on the ends of the wires (they are dressed in a tumbler and spark plugs). If they cracked or just loosely dressed - replace.

Check the thermostat: over the summer it could fail. With the onset of cold weather, the engine will begin to warm up for a long time, and the operating temperature will drop, which will lead to an overexpenditure of gasoline

If the engine worked in the evening without interruptions, do not twist it with a starter for a long time.The candles will be "filled" with gasoline. Spray the wires and caps with a special moisture-displacing compound for high-voltage wires.

Instead, you can also use the spray «WD-40». Also, this car chemistry will help if you flew into a puddle. Apply the spray and after a couple of minutes can continue the path. 

Advice №7. keeping the car salon clean

In the interior of the car will also drag a lot of water and dirt. No matter how you try to shake your feet and make  everyone do so before sitting down in the car, the slush will still get inside. But the developers of auto accessories took care of the drivers. And offer a variety of mats, like rubber with high sides, which are easy to clean, and disposables absorbent.

Advice №8. The car wash is especially actual in the autumn season.

To wash the car in the autumn it is necessary more often: a dirt, sand and other road troubles very negatively affect a paint and varnish covering. Therefore, it is better to have time to wash everything before the substances begin their destructive effect.

After washing, polish the machine with a special wax. By the way, autumn is a good time to do nano-washing for the first time.

Let this autumn give you an exceptionally pleasant and unforgettable car impressions. Let auto parts be affordable and your "swallow" never fails. Easy start-up and trouble-free ride!
