Bosch Car Service— A guide of value conservation

What should be paid attention to when parking a car?

The first step to preserving the cost of your car is a covered parking space - whether it's a garage, a covered parking lot or a tarpaulin for long-term storage on the street. Caution: Some countries have adopted legislative requirements regarding the readability of registration marks. Thus, before buying a tarpaulin, you need to clarify the possibility of using it in your country.

What is especially important in car care and outdoor washing?

Use the most modern car washes, because in some cases, standard brushes can damage the varnish coating of your car. If you prefer to take care of your car yourself, use the high-pressure cleaner with extreme care: Always observe the proper distance between the nozzle and the car to prevent damage to paint, tires, headlights and wheels. In particular, after the winter season, it is necessary to wash the paint and the bottom for thorough cleaning of the chassis to remove any corrosive residues of technical salts.

It is necessary to regularly wash and maintain the following parts:

• Disks (especially cast)

• Varnish coating (for example, using polishing, car wax or spot markers to eliminate minimal damage)

• Rubber and chrome-plated elements (for example, using an air conditioner for rubber or polishing paste)

How to maintain the cleanliness of the vehicle interior?

To maintain the original condition of the car interior for many years, it is recommended to regularly use a vacuum cleaner. Separate coatings should also be treated with appropriate care products.

At least twice a year, you should thoroughly clean the interior of your vehicle. Also pay attention to any places where there is moisture or just dampness, for example, under rubber mats. If there is any doubt, please contact Bosch Car Service for the diagnosis and the possibility of professional repair of the defect.

How to remove small scratches and clips from the car varnish coating?

Even the smallest scratches and chips can significantly reduce the cost of your car. Nevertheless, small parking chips or surface scratches can be easily and cheaply eliminated with the help of so-called "smart repair".

Contact Bosch Car Service for an economical "smart repair" to increase the cost of your car, including after a long period of operation.

How does car maintenance and caring help keep its cost?

The so-called control check is the main element in the long-term preservation of the value of the vehicle. In addition to car care, regular technical inspection and maintenance, as well as the availability of appropriate documentation on their conduct, are the best arguments in justifying the maximum cost of re-selling your car. Replacement of wearing parts must be performed in a timely manner, any existing defects should be detected and eliminated immediately after consulting a possible buyer.
