In severe frosts, wear on vehicle components and parts increases 10 times. In this respect reports “Rossiyskaya Gazeta”, referring to the head of the service department of the Fresh automobile market Ilya Ivansky.
“First of all, at low temperatures, the wear of car parts and components increases by 10 times compared to operation in the summer months, which is fraught with rapid failures,” the expert said.
According to him, often in cold weather drivers have problems with power steering – hoses can come off due to extreme cold. Also at high risk are all rubber products such as windshield wipers, seals and anthers. Automatic transmission also receives high load due to thickening of the oil.
It happened before that knownDiesel fuel in cars freezes faster than gasoline at low temperatures. To combat its thickening, you can only use anti-gel additives. Additionally, the highest octane gasoline fuels will not make it easier to start the engine in cold weather. In other words, if a driver often uses AI-92 gasoline, it will not be easier to start a car filled with AI-95 in winter.
Russians before in the name Regions with the highest salaries in car services.
