Tips on choosing a car oil

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Wed, 6 Apr 2011 08:32:00 -0700

Choosing the engine oil is sometimes quite confusing, because of ignorance of the specification we will use oil. An understanding of the conditions of operation of the machine used, as well as knowledge about the specifications of oil, could help solve this problem of anxiety.

As is well known that the engine oil is a very important role for example, reduce the coefficient of friction between the machine elements intersect, a cooling agent in the engine room, to avoid rust, make sure to avoid wearing on the surface of the element and so on.

In addition to the above requirements they will be the engine oil when the engine operates, always be in an environment that has a high temperature due to the combustion process in the combustion chamber. The combustion process they will also cause oxidation and lead to Radicals, or compounds which usually arise due to the reaction heat effect, thus causing degradation of engine oil. To maintain the quality of oil from the reaction of oxidation-preventing additive required.

Besides the blow-by gas that is entering the combustion gases to the engine room containing the fuel does not burn completely, are likely to be soot or particulete, to avoid such particulate clumping so that it becomes its own problems, engine oil additives will also need the anti-forming clumps. In addition to the diesel engine, which allows the sulfur contained quite a lot then for this type of engine oil additives require neutralizing sulfur.

As it is known that elements such as engine piston-ring and cylinder-liner, connecting rod tip, then the cam-nose and rocker-arm is touching. For this section, lubrication of the fluid that is flowing into the lubrication surface where the flow is very limited. Condition of existing types of lubrication in the engine room they will be, should respond to one type of engine oil only.

For lubrication type of surface they will be, a high-viscosity engine oil would be better suited to protect from the elements wearing, but the high viscosity of engine oil that they will become an obstacle to the rotating elements which lowers the fuel efficiency of the system itself. Conversely a low viscosity or thin, good for fuel efficiency, but allows higher engine element of damage caused by the possibility of friction between the larger elements. So that engine oil needs in the conditioning to be able to respond to the type of lubrication is required as above. For example with the addition of additives ZDTP to protect the parts that intersect like the cam and so on.

Distribution of energy use combustion products can be described more or less energy can be used as a power system 25% of motion, friction wheels and the road 6% and 7.5% loss due to mechanical, from the distribution for example, by using engine oil SHG mechanical loss becomes 0% though, fuel efficiency will go up 7.5%, but actually can not expect such a high increase in fuel efficiency. But oil prices are suitable for high fuel efficiency, it is not so different from regular oil, then use the oil to enhance fuel keiritan it remains one point that is not forgotten.

Specifications to save fuel oil includes a variety of important things to remember. As explained above that there is some kind of lubrication that occurs in the engine room, in summary a good oil is oil that is able to reduce friction on the lubrication of any kind on top. In oil market, there is a certificate issued by ILAC standards, ie standards issued by the oil producers and automobile manufacturers regarding tsb-grade oil.

The trend today is the engine oil viscosity reduction in oil to lower the barrier fluid in a rotating element, while to deal with problems on the surface of the elements that intersect added additive anti-wearing, and so on. In operation in the field more in mild or moderate load conditions, with temperatures around 150 degrees centigrade, which has a base oil of the polymer has advantages. This is because the oil with the base polymer viscosity little changed despite the change in temperature is large enough. So that real applications have a wider range of usability or flexible. But with a low viscosity, or oil that is more dilute, have a higher tendency to evaporate from the oil with high viscosity. It has also become one of the themes of research on the formula-development engine oil.

Code of an engine oil viscosity, is usually written out of cans of oil. The part which is W, a viscosity index they will be tested with testing system Cold Cranking Simulator (CCS) is performed at low temperatures below zero, for example 10W, 20W, 5W or 0W. The smaller the number on it they will increasingly dilute the engine oil. Or the easier the engine starter. But when viewed in its specific usage problems in Indonesia and not in the highlands, the oil without the standard CCS is also sufficient. If the viscosity sign they will be, do not use the letter W, then the oil they will be only in the test with the standard at a temperature of 100 degrees C. The smaller the number, the more dilute, suited to the emphasis on fuel effisiency, but less well to protect the machine elements that are touching each other.

So really from a technical standpoint, for areas that do not meet the cold temperature, is sufficient to see oil specification with code numbers without the letter W. But in real usage back to the user satisfaction, whether using double standards, or simply by a single standard without testing CCS.

Long Life Engine Oil
With increasing attention to environmental issues, efforts to use the engine oil up to 30.000 miles now been started by some oil producers. This is in addition to a lighter burden on the environment also reduces the themes in the care of the machine. From the research it is known that the main cause of damage to the oil starts from reduced anti-oxidant additives in the oil. The decrease in anti-oxidation additives are causing damage to the compound base oil oxidation due to chemical processes, which carry a chain effect with other additives damage that accelerates exponentially increase the viscosity of engine oil. It is also known that the location of the cause of damage to the engine oil quality, generally starting from the part between the piston and cylinder.

The use of oil in the oil quality has been damaged condition will result in the dirt that accumulated in the machine. This debris comes from the oil itself is biodegradable, and clumping that could eventually be found in elements of the machine. So to solve this problem the use of anti-oxidant additives, detergent additives and clot-preventing additive to be one important key in determining the formula for the new engine oil.

But as a "rule of thumb", until recently, using an ordinary oil but is often replaced more secure than using a good oil but it is rarely replaced.

In outline, engine oil, there are five groups (according to the Standard API)

GROUP I: Mineral Oil with a sufficiently large impurity
GROUP II: Mineral oil with impurity less than Group I
GROUP III: Mineral Oil with Group II with a viscosity index greater.
GROUP IV: PAO (PolyAlphaOlefin) Synthetic Oil
GROUP V: esters Synthetic Oil

Group III is made with synthetic technology - called Synthetized Mineral Oil. Performed by Castrol Synthetic Label and sell at a price of course Synthetic Oil.

Today almost all synthetic oil they follow the lower grade and sell Castrol Synthetic Oil (hem, reap more profit).

Without seeing the type and quality of oil used, the problem is that there is fuel in the combustion chamber is not completely evaporated, so not everything is on fire. Residual fuel oil and blowby will wet the Ring piston and cylinder wall, so that the oil dissolves dry, until the friction between the piston rings to cylinder walls resist nobody, easily damaged.

Point is primarily how to make fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber is vaporized (approaching 100%), so that complete combustion will occur.

Preventing Damage to Battery

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Tue, 1 Mar 2011 17:33:00 -0800

Battery or batteries often called a source of electric power in the car. Accu also need good care, as well as the engine for vital functions. Without the support of the prime batteries, magneto ignition as a trigger operation of the machine will be hard driven cars. And with good care, the lifetime of the batteries can be maximized up to two years of use. Here are tips that can be a maximum age of the batteries.

1. Turn off your electronic devices. When finished using the car, turn off the first
advance a variety of car electronics accessories, such as a car outside lights, cabin lights, air conditioning, and audio device before turning off the engine contacts. With this behavior, age of the batteries will be longer because the electrical currents are not sucked in vain.

2. Clean the battery terminals. Keep the battery terminals positive pole and negative pole is always clean and dry to prevent rust. If there is corrosion on battery terminals, although only a thin layer of rust, may reduce the ability of batteries to send or receive an electrical current. And if the acid salt formed in the terminal battery, the terminal off and then wash with hot water. However, if formed rust, clean using a wire brush or use a special cleaning fluid such as WD40. Keep in mind, do not occasionally use a liquid such as WD40 to clean the parts made of plastic, because it will make the plastic becomes brittle. Instead, use special cleaners such as Contact Cleaner, to clean the plastic socket.

3. Check the battery water. Note the volume of water to keep the batteries as needed. Never lacking or excessive. Lack of water can cause cell damage accu batteries. This can lead to reduction of supply of electric current generated. In addition, the defective battery cell does not lead to accu perfectly capable of storing electricity. And if the filling of water in excess batteries, electrochemical processes can lead to overheating of the batteries.

4. Make sure the battery position is firmly in place. When the placement of loose batteries, car vibrations can damage the inside of the battery, thus shortening his age. Try not to have rust on the car battery holder. Clean with a wire brush or cleaning fluid when there is corrosion on the battery holder.

5. Resting batteries. If your car is not used in quite a long time, remove the negative battery terminal to battery condition awake. Hours of system memory, audio, alarm, central lock and will continue to work if the battery still attached. As a result, the batteries will run out of electrical power. Because the batteries still issued despite the electrical energy of electronic devices in cars not currently in the process of usage.

Tips Caring for Your Car Tires

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 06:42:00 -0800

Coins can also be used as a pointing device that your tires are removed, then it's time for your car to change tires. More Below are 10 tips car tire maintenance:

Do not wait until the tire is damaged. Make it a habit to always check your tire pressure at least once a month and especially before traveling long distances. Tires with insufficient pressure will cause the tire easily of heat due to friction with the asphalt, so the tires wear faster and can endanger the safety of driving.
You must be memorized by the proportional pressure of your tires. The size of the right tire pressure can be seen on the sticker attached to the inside of the door of your vehicle, or the vehicle owner's manual.
For a valid measurement of your car tire pressure, check tires when they are cold temperatures. If your car runs out travel long distances, wait approximately three hours.
Perform periodic checks, at least once a month and keep the size of your car tire pressure is always on a proportionate restriction. So that your car is ready for use, if at any time you need.
Coins can be used as a pointing device that you have bald tires. Put the coins in your car tire tread. If you can see the whole picture coin money, it's time for your car to change tires.
Keep your tires from the pit on the road. Because the hole is too large not only can damage your tires, but will also disturb the balance or the balance of the tires.
Make a schedule. Make sure you redeem your tires between the front with that behind every 6000 miles, so that uniform conditions throughout the tire and maintain a longer tire life.
Do not drive a car with a tire without a nipple cover. Driving a car with a tire without a valve cover may cause air leakage from inside the tire and can result in tire pressure deficiency.
Check the balance or the balance of your tires periodically, to avoid tire spin that is not stable.
Calculate the weight that must be loaded by your car. If the load exceeds the maximum capacity can cause excessive pressure on your tires and it can be very dangerous.

Take care of your car paint

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 23:16:00 -0800

Many people are willing to spend no small amount of money to beautify the outside appearance of the car. Usually this is for the satisfaction and pride for the sake of artistic value may not be owned by another vehicle. Without us knowingthe actual paint-groomed not only reflects the beauty alone, but will also make thecar more durable, how not because it will be protected from corrosion or rust(damage caused by chemical or electrochemical reaction).

To that end, it is very important for us to know how to keep and care for car paint.Here are some tips that we can do, is as follows:

Wash your car in the shade or protected from direct sun and make sure your engine is cold. 2. Before you wash your car, it is good to clean your car surfacewith a soft duster first, so that dirt or sand attached to the body is not scratchedwhen you rubbed it with a sponge.
Use a special cleaning tool car, wash with car shampoo and use a sponge, do not use laundry detergent because it contains chemicals that can damage thepaint or gloss paint.
When washing the car do not let the bubbles stick too long, because if the foamdries quickly can cause patches of paint stains on your car.
If exposed to dirt immediately clean (usually liquids: such as oil, bird droppings,etc.). Do not wait too long because if too long dirt can seep into the paint andmake the paint to be damaged or discolored.
Do not be too often parked car in the summer, because hot sun quicklydamage the paint or paint color of your car will be quickly faded.

Preventing Insects Log Cabin Car

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Sat, 5 Feb 2011 07:29:00 -0800

To prevent entry of insects and nesting is actually very simple, the recipe will follow the recommendation below. Borne insects nesting reluctant!

Do not eat in the car. Yng leftovers tucked in between the wall invites insects to come.
Try when parking not to long to open the door. Doors open for tempting insects get into the car. Then, try not to park under the trees likely to invite ants for entry into the interior.
Use a car wrapping. This method proved effective in preventing insects from entering through the sidelines of the car body.
Do not store a damp place car. Humid areas inviting insects into a house for a kind of cockroach.
When using cleaning fluid insects, do not use random drug. This is done so that the effects of insect cleanser, a smell not bother passenger cars.

Move transmission to Neutral

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Thu, 3 Feb 2011 06:54:00 -0800

Usually the automatic car users most often do this. The position of the transmission lever is left in position D and the brakes at red lights. Transmission at this extra work because they were held by the brakes.

Prudent step is to move the lever to the neutral position, at this position the flow of transmission oil cooling down and there was no pressure on canvas clutch. The result is the automatic transmission to be more durable in use.

Not Equally important is also the user manual transmission to not hold the clutch and gas pedal. This was done to keep the car on the road did not back down when the car stops Monopoly sets. Get used to pull the handbrake.

The Enemies of Car Paint

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 15:58:00 -0800

Paint is a beauty crown car. Whatever expensive your car is damaged if the paint certainly looks bad. So the car always performed brilliantly, of paint should be protected from attack enemies that could potentially damage it. There are good that we know some of the enemies of paint:

WATER Liquids that this one could be friend and enemy of paint. Water can be used to clean the dirty paint. But do not ever let the water dry up by itself, because that was the beginning of the formation of fungus. Prevent it easy. Wash the car in places that are not exposed to direct sunlight to prevent drying out the water itself. After rinsing, dry the surface immediately wet the car body. When rain washed the car on the way, it helps dry it immediately with a chamois water points once you reach the destination.
DUST Granules of this one was always encountered everywhere making it impossible to avoid the car when required paint from dust grains. However, grain dust is a major contributor to scratch the surface of the paint, if the wrong way to clean it. There is only one way to clean it, is to wash with water. Because only airlah can lift dust grains without friction with the surface of the paint.
CAR BODY COVER Gloves or car cover is effective in protecting the car from the sun and dust. But when the materials used are impermeable to water, these protectors can actually be a boomerang. The car is rained on when closed makes the water trapped underneath. Once the lid is opened will be immediately visible mold attached to the surface of the paint.
SOAP Wear always shampoo or soap with a pH balanced car wash. Do not use detrejen and the like, because it will make the paint dull. There are several types of soap to trace when used for washing the car, even a dab of soap that contains no grains which can create scratches the surface of the paint.
DIRT BIRD Bird droppings contain chemicals that can react with the paint. Therefore do not let the bird droppings old inherent in the paint surface because it will cause spotting very difficult to remove. Immediately wash with water.
TREE SAP To avoid sunburn outdoors, one effective way is to park the car under a tree. But the fruit or tree sap that falls can also damage the paint. If you're new, this dirt can be cleaned with water, but if a little old tree sap can react with the paint so that the cause scars or spots that do not encounter problems can be eliminated even with the polished. That is because the reaction has penetrated down to the pores in the paint most.
LIQUID WATER mixer Wiper Adding wiper washer fluid on a glass of water is effectively expelled from the glass surface munyak. But some wiper fluid product instead leave stains on the paint surface. Make sure the product you use is not damaging the paint.
ACCU liquid electrolyte The liquid electrolyte batteries that have been reacted with active batteries cell membrane is also a major enemy of paint. So when adding the liquid electrolyte batteries jangansampai too full. Due to spills and vapors can damage the paint. If this happens immediately flush the affected part of the liquid electrolyte batteries with warm water. This can only be done as soon as possible because if it drops or liquid spills on the surface of the paint more than a few seconds then certainly you have to repaint that section.
OIL BRAKE Despite the vital function of brake fluid is also very harmful to paint, let alone the type that is not neutral. Should be extra careful when pouring, do not spill or the car body. If the spill immediately flush with warm water. Conditions, handling and effects that occur exactly the same point No. 7 above.
PROTECT WITH WAX In addition to avoiding the enemies of paint that had been mentioned, you also need to be coated with protective paint. Wax is a wax type of composition that serves to protect the paint surface of car. Need to know, do not use a protective layer with a silicon base material, especially in conditions of new paint or Re-Painting. Bringing the car to the beauty salon once a month car can help. But for those of you who want to save money and fond of exercise, apply the wax itself can be the right choice. Use a quality wax, at least 2 weeks. Because the wax-coated paint that is not easily attacked by fungus.

How to maintenance car with an automatic transmission

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 15:43:00 -0800

Automatic transmission driving the streets of the capital or the cities - cities that never escape the traffic jam, is more promising than the convenience of manual transmission cars. But behind the comfort obtained, the device takes care exceeds persnelingmatik manual transmission, especially in dealings with girbox. Here are things - things you should know: Automatic Transmission Fluid In the automatic gearbox, there is a fluid whose name Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF), its function is not only lubricates. Automatic hydraulic principle in girbox require mediators. Primarily to manage tooth movement and pressed the clutch plate. So if the viscosity of the viscosity falls, the pressure generated will also be reduced. Combustion Process Since there is no combustion process in the automatic transmission, decrease the viscosity of the fluid caused contamination due to the lifetime. It can not be avoided, because any friction that occurs in the clutch plate, would result in the charge. Slip Clutch Symptoms of damage to the automatic transmission bias in feel from the clutch slip. The indication there is an imbalance engine speed with the car's speed. The engine has been roaring at high speed, but the car is running at a rate that is not balanced by the roar of the car. Shift Switching gears too jerky, not smooth as usual. This bias in check by entering the gear to the position D or R, then brake off. Daslam healthy condition, the car in motion. If not there is an issue worthy of suspicion in the automatic transmission.

Ready for Flood

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 07:58:00 -0800

As commonly happens, when abundant rainfall soaked, it would not be surprised if in some locations will experience a high level of standing water and even flooded. Flooding alone has been becoming one of the enemy for motorists, because the automatic can immobilize the vehicle immediately.

When driving on wet roads, reduce speed. The streets are wet allow Aquaplanning, namely the formation of a triangle between tire and road surface. This will make the car lose traction and braking ability.
If you are stuck in flooded areas, make sure the water level is still below the hole exhaust and ignition systems. No need to turn off the engine while the exhaust is submerged. Exhaust gas pressure will block the water coming into the exhaust. But if it reached the engine off, exhaust pressure so that water does not have any direct way into the exhaust.
After passing the flood, it is important to check the brakes. Brake components are submerged in water can cause rust and cause damage.

Hopefully with these quick tips and the light can help you to anticipate the occurrence of undesirable things. Do not forget to always check your vehicle more regularly, since rain water is much more harmful and can damage some components of your vehicle.

Choose Lubricants

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Sun, 16 Jan 2011 15:13:00 -0800

After determines its function, then we stepped on the selection of the proper type of lubricant for the engine of our vehicle. To be the right choice even this, we must do it carefully. Well, manuals mention the type of vehicle ownership is the right lubricant for your vehicle's engine. Usually in your Vehicle Maintenance Tips book was written recommendation rate viscosity (viscosity) lubricants are suggested. Size husband lubricant viscosity indicated by the term SAE (Soceity of Automotive Engineers). In addition to SAE, Vehicle Maintenance Tips book in your vehicle it also requires a level of quality or performance (performance level) lubricant required. Lubricating qualities indicated by the term API Service. Well, API Service is classified into two categories, namely for gasoline engines and diesel engines (diesel). Gasoline Engine: SA (Machine with ancient specifications - is rarely used), SB (for engines with light duty - no longer used), SC (for machine-made between the years 1964 to 1967), SD (machine made in 1968-1970), SE (machine made in 1971 and over), SF (machine-made in 1980 and over), SG (machine-made in 1989 and over), SH (machine-made in 1993 and over), SJ (machine-made in 1997 and over), SL (machine-made in 2002 and over), and SM (machine-made in 2004 and up) Diesel engines: CA (light duty diesel engines), CB (duty diesel engines are), CC (diesel engine medium and heavy duty), CD (heavy duty diesel engine equipped with a supercharger), CD-II (two stroke diesel engines), CE (heavy duty diesel engine with turbo / supercharger), CF (diesel engines made in 1994 and over), CF-2 (two stroke diesel engines), CF-4 (4 stroke diesel engine heavy duty made in 1990 and operates at speeds high), CG-4 (diesel engine four-step heavy duty made in 1994 and operates with high speed and heavy load), CH-4 (high speed diesel engines made in 1998 and over), CI-4 (heavy duty diesel engines) .

Check Tire Pressure Routine

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Fri, 14 Jan 2011 15:06:00 -0800

Condition of the tires with air pressure correctly will reduce the effects of friction tires against the road surface, so that fuel consumption will be more economical. Driving with 50kPA wind pressure (0.5 kg/cm2) below should be to reduce fuel efficiency by 2-4% within and outside the city Consider installing a tire pressure monitor in your car, so it can know when to fill in or add to it. With the correct tire air pressure will increase traction to the road surface. In addition to the maintenance of the environment, you also will get a safer tire.

Tire Maintenance

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 08:45:00 -0800

According to sources from the Ministry of Traffic Safety National Highway U.S., as many as 660 cases of traffic accidents caused by lack of air pressure in a tire and the casualties were seriously injured as many as 33 thousand per year, you try to imagine how important a round rubber rim around his vehicle you. Even with the existence of a study sponsored by the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) recently, which made the 1000 drivers across the state, to find facts such as:

63% say that car drivers tire pressure greatly affects the distance from the vehicle
Only 19% of the drivers who check their tire pressure condition
Each month, three out of four drivers wash their vehicles, while only one in five motorists check their tire pressure.

Believe do not believe, if you diligently check your car tire pressure condition and keep always in the size of the pressure which should then you can cover the distance up to 3.3% more fuel and save money. Well for that there are a few tips, on how to treat or care for the rubber round:

Do not wait for damaged tires. Make it a habit to always check your car tire pressure, at least a month and especially before traveling long distances. Tires with insufficient pressure will cause the coating easy to heat because of the magnitude of friction with the asphalt, making the tires wear faster and can endanger the safety of driving.
You must be memorized by the proportional pressure of your tires. The size of the right tire pressure can be seen on the sticker attached to the inside of the door of your vehicle, or the vehicle owner's manual, or emblem of a rubber tire around the circle itself.
For exact measurements or valid against your car tire pressure, check tires when they are cold temperatures. If the car is used up a long drive, wait approximately three hours.
Do not forget to check periodically, at least once a month and keep the size of your car tire pressure is always on a proportionate restriction.
Use the coins as a bookmark if your tires are still viable or already bald aka flat and need replacing. Put a coin in the tread tires, if you can see the whole picture coins, it's time for your car to change tires.
Keep your tires from the pit on the road. Because the hole is too large not only can damage your tires, but will also disturb the balance or the balance of the tires.
To be more durable, make a schedule. Make sure you trade between the car tires in front with that behind every 6000 miles, so that uniform conditions throughout the tire and maintain a longer tire life.
Do not drive a car with a tire without a valve cover. Driving a car with a tire without a valve cover may cause air leakage from inside the tire and can result in tire pressure deficiency.
Check the balance or the balance of the tires periodically, to avoid tire spin that is not stable.
Calculate the weight that must be loaded by your car. If you exceed the maximum capacity can cause excessive pressure on your tires and it can be very dangerous.

Tips on Rainy Season

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 05:09:00 -0800

Entering the end of the year, the tropical climate of the country changed the rainy season. A time like this, cars are required to first. Because, usually the rainy season in Indonesia, especially in the big city, synonymous with congestion. Stagnant water, dysfunctional traffic lights, and impede the flow of cars because there is a strike or two wheels that take refuge under the bridge, a major cause some congestion.

Wiper
Note the condition of windshield wipers because this component is the main tool in the rainy season. Give focus on the rubber, if found to be brittle or cracked, the rubber should be replaced in order to sweep up. Another way to detect the condition of the rubber wiper with respect to the former sapuannya. Excellent wiper will not leave the ears of water during the process of sweeping.

One thing to note if you want to replace the rubber wiper, look at the content of the rubber material. Containing synthetic rubber or flexible polymers have good power, making it more suitable for cars that have a curved windshield. In contrast, natural rubber is more suitable for cars that look in the mirror upright and straight ahead somewhat, because the rubber is a bit harsh.

Lighting and Electrical
When it rains, water vapor will occur in the surface air. Mixed with road dust, this composition will make a thin mist that quite disturbing when driving. Head lamp light rays that would be helpful driving, especially during heavy rains.

Also check the electrical system components. Make sure the batteries in konsisi good, and no cables are peeling, broken, or sagging. The entry of water into the terminal electrical or cable connection can ignite the occurrence of short-circuit and makes the car breaking down.

Legs
One of the constraints arising from the rainy season, namely the existence of a sufficiently high puddles in the road surface. So far not too high (less than half the car's wheels), it is not a problem to traverse. Just make sure the legs of your car, such as shockabsorber and rubber bushing, in good condition.

If shockabsorber leaking or torn rubber bushing, the water will easily seep into these two components. Sooner or later, the performance of the legs will be disrupted. As a result, traveling comfort will also be reduced.

Air conditioning
The use of air conditioning in the rainy season serves to prevent condensation on the windshield, because with the AC on, the cabin has a temperature equal to or lower than the outside temperature. Because there is not much difference in temperature, moisture will not appear on the windshield. Therefore, make sure the air conditioner has enough freon, compressor is working properly, and lattice lines are not clogged.

Cabin
When the rainy season, sometimes in the cabin smell 'musty' (dreadful). This problem itself arises from two things, because of damp and musty smell musty smell coming from the AC grid. Part of damp with moisture, can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner. While the odor emanating from the AC grid could be due to a leaking freon.

In the meantime, if you want to dry the cabin or spillage of water, avoid using a hair dryer because it can damage the carpet adhesive, so the loss of adhesive power. Then use the perfume as a late stage, when the cabin is completely clean or after the odor source has been cleaned.

Slide Door Maintenance

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Wed, 15 Dec 2010 23:23:00 -0800

One reason the producers chose the sliding door (sliding door) for the MPV they do is an easy cab access. The mechanism of the door, can be electrically or manually. The door has a series of components that are not complex machines. However, as the use and age, these devices require treatment.

Therefore, for those who have cars with sliding doors (for example on the Hyundai H-1), the following guidelines may keep the door remains very good condition. Also provide cleaning fluid, grease and rags.

1.See rail conditions. Use a clean cloth that has been sprayed cleaning liquid (spray lubricant) to remove dirt and grease.
2. After clearing the tracks, railway basting with the grease (lubricating paste) containing paraffin wax (avoid fat-containing oil, for easier dust).
3. In further support to the door a few moments. When the door sound noisy, the bearings are not lubricated.
4. Clean all contact with the bearing rails.
5. The mechanism of the sliding door is designed to be easily closed immediately after the handle is in operation. So, do not take much energy to move it. If you hit too much, a latching mechanism may be of short duration.

How to saving fuel usage

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Fri, 10 Dec 2010 05:27:00 -0800

Rising fuel prices, non-subsidy makes a lot of people trying to save fuel consumed by vehicles. Moreover, the discourse that arises bolehnya limitation or no use of the subsidized fuel. Are you familiar with the gas stations want to constantly refuel your car? Here are some tips to save fuel.

Machines Maintenance
If the car engine is not healthy, will certainly make your car engine is not working prime. This can make the power generated by the engine of your car feels heavy to accelerate. The ends will waste fuel oil consumption in your car.

Do not Use Air Conditioner At Highest Level
Use of Air Conditioner at the highest level would create unnecessary consumption of fuel oil which is very wasteful, because if at the time of A / C at the highest level will make the compressor A / C live longer than the normal level. If the compressors are living longer, working more heavy. Automatic machine used wisely in the use of A / C.

Tire Pressure Wind On Notice
If the tire pressure on a vehicle having less wind, will create traction tires on the asphalt increased. But there are also side effects that the engine will work harder, and the effect on fuel consumption becomes more extravagant. Try to check the tire pressure to remain normal. Use the tire size is also determined from the manufacturer.

Treat Car Interior

noreply@blogger.com (autodizio) — Sun, 5 Dec 2010 05:45:00 -0800

One factor driving comfort is the interior of your car. Therefore, we must take good care. Confused how to care for her? Below the following tips :
