When autumn arrives, every vehicle owner should pay special attention to preparing the vehicle. To do so, it is necessary to pay attention to a few simple but important points.
Oku.AzAccording to information provided by , Vice-President of the National Automobile Union of Russia Yan Heitzeyer gave valuable recommendations on this issue in his interview with “Moscow 24”.
Recommends replacing the wiper blade first.
“The summer version can be used until mid-autumn, but at temperatures of 10 degrees Celsius or less you have to switch to a winter windscreen wiper. In addition, it is important to check the mechanisms and rubber parts responsible for their operation,” said Heitzeyer.
The expert indicated that the next step was to check the fuel filter.
“In the summer months, when you are visiting suburban areas on holiday, water or paraffin can seep into the fuel filter after a questionable petrol station. At lower temperatures, this can prevent the engine from starting,” warns Ian Heitzeyer.
The expert also recommended that car owners check the battery before the first frosts. Statistics show that about 30% of all breakdowns in autumn and winter are related to battery failures.
The expert also reminds us of the importance of purchasing a special liquid for bottles.
“The periodic rains of autumn significantly worsen visibility, so a quality windscreen washer is a guarantee of safety at the wheel,” explains the expert.
He also called for a radiator cleaning. According to the expert, this will prevent the engine from overheating and prolong its lifespan.
