Sergey Shabunin, the main buyer of the Veshnyaki Avto technical center, told socialbites.ca, with the onset of spring, the car must undergo a series of checks to prevent wear and failure of the air conditioner and engine.
Shabunin advised to check the chassis of cars, in winter, silent blocks often fail. “The antifreeze should be in perfect condition so that when the weather warms up, the liquid doesn’t allow the engine to boil,” he said.
“Make sure to clean the radiators of salt and dirt, otherwise the engine may overheat and the air conditioner will not work properly. The fact is that the radiators not only get clogged, but also rot from the salt that gets into the aluminum honeycombs, ”the auto mechanic warned.
The paint of the car is also damaged when used on the roads with reagents, so after the winter the car should not only be polished, but also protected with liquid glass or ceramic, he explained.
“After winter, car owners often shine their headlights. If the vehicle has xenon lenses, they will only work properly when the headlights are clean and polished, otherwise the light will be scattered. Many people clean the headlights with snow brushes, where the plastic is very damaged, ”says Shabunin.
Finally, the specialist added that after the winter, drivers should change the cabin and air filters, dry the areas under the cabin carpets and, if possible, check the condition of the metal underneath.
Former automobile specialist said “socialbites.ca” is the hidden damage that a car can take when driving the pits incorrectly.
