In recent days, many regions often suffer from strong convective weather, and the days of heavy rain are a big test for cars. However, there are always owners who think the car can be saved by the rain and save a car wash fee. They don't know that the rain is not the imaginary “dew” but the “venom” that will hurt the car. Since this is the case, then if we dry the rain on the body as quickly as possible after the rain, can we feel at ease? Of course not so simple. Next, let's talk about the main points of maintaining the vehicle after the rain. You may wish to refer to the reference when you care for the car after the rain.

First, the body: clean before it depends on the vehicle in the rain after the rain, in addition to the rain will remain on the surface of the body, will flow into the gap below the body; when the car is driving in the rain, the sludge on the road will splash these gaps inside. When the rain meets these dirties, it forms dirt that sticks to the crevices and hides in hard-to-perceive areas. These parts of the hidden sludge are the black spots where moisture accumulates. As time passes, it will cause rust on the underside of the car body, which will not only affect the appearance of the vehicle, but also cause damage to the car body.

Therefore, the owner can not be lazy after the rain, the vehicle should be sent to the 4S shop or a regular car beauty shop as soon as possible to clean, especially pay attention to the clearance of the sludge on the lower side of the door, sludge in the hub, and to maintain these gaps Dry parts.

Second, paint: The rain is actually the enemy to wash the car when the shower, I believe many owners have such a misunderstanding. Indeed, the rain-drenched vehicle is adorned with water droplets. The crystal clear water is beautiful and seems very clean, but this is only an illusion seen with the naked eye. Nowadays, rainwater in urban areas is generally acidic, and the acidic components in the rain have a strong corrosive effect on the car's paint finish. As time passes, it will cause unrecoverable damage to the car's paint finish. When you did, you wouldn't use these rainwaters as "dew."

Although the destructive power of acid rain is not small, there is no need to panic. We still have ways to deal with it. In rainy weather, it is best for the owner to give the car a varnish treatment. The waxing method can be used simply and quickly. For longer and more effective protection, it can be sealed. After the care, the car's paint will have a layer of protection against acid rain, basically can despise the nausea of ​​acid rain.

If the car is unfortunately tricky and has been corroded by acid rain, it will need to be repaired and then painted. Of course, the situation of acid rain corrosion paint is relatively rare, as long as the owners can prevent the car from scratching or collision damage the paint, the general acid rain is still very difficult to "second kill" the body paint.

Third, the skylight: keep this road "head off"

The owner who selects the sunroof is basically the realm of “good lighting”, “viewing scenery” and “enough grade”. However, sunroofs belong to the weak link of the car, and the squeamishness is certain, especially when it comes to rain, there is nothing wrong with it. Carefully, it will encounter the embarrassing situation of "light rain inside the car." In addition, because this position does not form a plane with the roof, it is destined to become a place where rain and dirt accumulate.

To solve the above problems, we can start from the maintenance after the rain. In the maintenance after the rain, firstly, the sand or leaves adhering to the sunroof sealing strip should be cleaned to check if the sealing strip is deformed or a gap occurs, so as to prevent the excessive infiltration of rainwater into the sunroof and cause water leakage inside the vehicle.

Followed by lubrication of the sunroof rails. The case of many leaking sunroofs is related to the fact that the sunroof is not completely closed. This is actually a poorly lubricated sunroof guide rail. Under normal circumstances, there will be sufficient lubricant oil in the sunroof rail, but if the owner does not leak the sunroof or the sunroof in time during the rain, let the rainwater flow into the rail, it will dilute the lubricant on the rail, long-term if not pay attention It will lead to insufficient lubrication of the sunroof rail and affect the closeness of the sunroof closing. Therefore, every time after the rain maintenance, we must also check the lubrication of the sunroof rail, add lubricant in time.

Fourth, the car: to connect the gap need to pay attention to the skylight without the car can avoid leakage inside the car? of course not. With the increase of vehicle use time, the sealing strip at the joint of the vehicle body will gradually age. For example, such parts as the connection between the A pillar and the front windshield glass will become the weak link for the rain. Therefore, after the rain maintenance in addition to pay attention to the outside of the car body, do not forget to check the seal inside the car.

V. Lights and wipers: The hidden dangers are hidden in small details In heavy rain, the lights can provide great security for our driving safety, especially the stronger fog lights. For some vehicles that have been in use for a long time, the waterproof capacity of the lights has dropped, and there will be “tears and tears” - the lights leaking. If you allow yourself to dry out and not deal with it in time, you are ready to accept the reality of car blindness!

Leakage of the lights has a lot to do with the seals of the lights. Therefore, when checking after the rain, the first thing to notice is whether there is water mist in the headlights. If so, it is necessary to see if there is a crack in the lampshade or if the edge seals are damaged. , and promptly replace the relevant parts.

Wipers are also an important part of rainy days, so the inspection of the wipers is also an important part. Aging or damaged wiper strips will significantly reduce the effect of the wiper, and will not be able to timely clean the rain on the front windshield glass, driving in a rainy field of vision, the safety factor is naturally greatly reduced.

VI. Chassis: The overall nursing province may not be considered as a “hard-to-force” role in the chassis: the gravel that is frequently picked up from the ground, which is often bounced up, and the filthy water splashed on the ground in a rainy day, the adhesion of sludge is a common thing. ...... After the rain, we should take care of the vehicle chassis for compensation.

After lifting the vehicle with a lift, the chassis of the vehicle will be in full view. We can find that there are many parts where the vehicle chassis is easily rusted, including suspensions, tubing, oil pans, and various voids. It is a good choice to give the chassis a clean and anti-rust treatment.

The same "hard" tire and brake system. When driving on a rainy day, if the tires are punctured with sharp objects, it is usually difficult to find; when the brake disc is covered with rain during rainy days, if it is allowed to dry on its own, the rust on the brake disc will only become more and more defamatory. Therefore, from a whole point of view, chassis care should also include tires and brake discs.

VII. Ignition system: After dehumidifying and drying in time, many owners find that their car starts to be a bit difficult and even hard to ignite. In this case, it is mostly related to the humidity of the ignition system. During the running of the car, the internal temperature of the ignition system in the engine compartment will increase accordingly. When it encounters rain, the cold air outside the vehicle will meet with the hot air in the engine compartment and will condense on the ignition system. Water vapour; If water vapor cannot evaporate in time, it will affect the operation of the ignition system, causing the vehicle to suffer from ignition fatigue.

It is not difficult to solve this problem. It is only necessary to check the moisture conditions of the engine and the ignition system during rain maintenance. Pay particular attention to whether there is condensation of the water droplets at the interface of the ignition system and outside the pipeline, and perform the drying process in time.

8. Intake system: Keep dry Do not forget where the parts of the engine compartment are most likely to be splashed with rain? That's right, it's the tank radiator network in front of the engine compartment. If the heat-dissipating network that is splashed with water is not dried in time, it is not only easy to be contaminated with filthy substances and affect the air intake and heat dissipation, but also easily damaged by the acid rain. Covered with rust stains, and sticky, still very humid ... this kind of heat network, think it is disgusting. Or that sentence: Clean and dry in time, no harm.

There is also a component that needs to be dried in time, namely an air filter.

After rain enters the air filter, the damp air filter will reduce the air permeability of the air filter, resulting in insufficient air intake of the engine. The most direct consequence is that the vehicle is incapable of operating, which in turn increases fuel consumption.

Nine, oil: how to add wiper water in time How many owners think that using wiper water can be done on tap water? Or add detergent DIY to wiper water in tap water? In fact, this is also a misunderstanding of the use of cars: tap water can not completely clean the car glass; detergent can play a role in cleaning, but it will corrode the wiper strip, accelerate its aging hardening. We still recommend that owners add a special wiper to the car in time after the rain to maintain the cleanliness and water repellency of the front windshield. After all, it is unrealistic to expect the wiper to support the overall situation in the rainy weather.

Summary: According to the above steps, remove the slightly more troublesome paint care work, it takes only about three hours to complete a rain maintenance, both to maintain the clean appearance of the vehicle, but also increase the safety factor, serve two purposes.
