Car maintenance at this time is very important, so what do we need to do to take care of the best "driver", refer to the tips below with AP SAIGON PETRO Lubricant.
Car interior care and protection
Ultraviolet and infrared rays can fade the color of plastic details, wood paneling as well as metal inside the interior, further affecting the health of the occupants. So we need to equip some windshields and windows if we often have to park in direct sunlight.
Air conditioning system maintenance
The air conditioning system of a car is considered the second most working system after the engine in the hot summer. Therefore, before summer comes, check, and especially clean, the extremely necessary air conditioning system. According to the recommendations of automobile manufacturers, the air conditioning system should be serviced once every 6 months.
Periodic oil change for car engines
When the summer is hot, the temperature inside and outside the engine is high, the oil change is even more important. At high temperatures, the greater the friction of the machine parts, the faster the viscosity of the lubricating oil will decrease. Therefore, check the oil in the morning after it has completely settled overnight. Change the oil on time for a smoother ride.
Check car tires regularly
To prolong the life of the tires, we should regularly check through the tire grooves, sidewalls and valve feet to make sure the tires are not cracked, edematous or punctured. If one of the above problems is detected, it must be replaced immediately.
If the weather is too hot, tires will also lose their life faster than normal. Especially when traveling at high speed, tires can explode, causing serious dangers. Therefore, we should check regularly and need to maintain a stable tire pressure according to the pressure recommended by the manufacturer.
Check car coolant solution
In the summer, the engine operates at a higher frequency and is often exposed to a hot dry environment, the cooling water level is also reduced, while not counting leaks and blockages. To ensure enough coolant for the engine, just regularly check and add coolant every time the oil is checked.
Car brake system care
This system is located at a relatively low position, so it is often easy to get dirty and sand to get inside. If you feel the need to step on the brake more deeply, the braking distance is longer, or there is an unusual noise after each brake application, it should be taken to a garage or workshop for inspection immediately.
In addition, brake fluid also needs to be checked during this period because if there is any loss of brake fluid, in addition to adding, we also need to check the pipeline system for leaks or not?
Check car battery
When the temperature in the engine compartment is higher than usual, the battery will increase chemical reactions, work harder. In addition, the high temperature also causes the sulfuric acid solution to consume more or less, and needs to be replenished when necessary. Therefore, it is also advisable to regularly check the part that helps the engine start and maintain power to the equipment on the vehicle.
Maintenance of the air conditioner unit
Just before summer, carry out maintenance care for your car's air conditioning system. Because usually in the winter, the air conditioner will not be used, so when it comes to summer, you need to maintain and check it before putting it into use to avoid possible breakdowns and malfunctions.
