The strong heat associated with global weather changes is able to adversely affect not only the painting of the vehicle, but also to cause engine overheating, electrical wiring failure and many other problems. In addition, with a strong heat, it is often possible to deny the brakes, with which there are more and more car owners. However, you should not fall into panic. There are several simple rules, sticking to which you can avoid the above-described troubles.

Shadow - Good for cars, how to create a shadow

If you need to leave your vehicle on the street for a long time interval, find a shadow or shelter. The long parking lot of the car under the scorching sun is harmful both paint coating of the body and rubber, which "does not like" ultraviolet and direct sunlight. In addition, from a long parking, in some cases, a torpedo or dashboard deformation occurs, this applies to inexpensive cars. Also, the suspension of the vehicle saloon suffers from sunlight. Ultraviolet is able to adversely affect the materials that the salon will be trimmed, as a result of which it burns out and loses its original appearance. Without a doubt, this situation is fraught with the loss of the commodity and, if necessary, selling transport, you may well have great trouble, as it is unlikely that anyone wants to buy a car with a faded salon.

Heat, how it affects the paintwork and car wiring

High temperatures can adversely affect the electrical wiring, the braid is capable of cracking, and, together with this, overheat the mass of sensors and relays.

Therefore, it is desirable to hide the vehicle in the garage or under a canopy. If you have to hide, you should take care of at least minimal protection, for example, a reflective foil or wind tinting perfectly copes with the rays of the sun. In addition, you can install special small curtains that can be pulled as if necessary. The most excellent solution is a special case that is put on the body of the vehicle and in full protects it from the harmful effect of the environment.

Air conditioner for cooling salon auto, it's good

Many modern vehicles are equipped with air conditioning, if it is missing - use the fan or forced cooling as open windows or forces.

Undoubtedly, by this you delay the overheating of the cabin, but the consumption of fuel, at the same time, will increase significantly, since the air conditioner is constantly included directly affects this parameter.

Car body how to protect it from insects and bird litter

In the spring and summer body of the car, it is necessary to wash much more often, since in addition to permanent phenomena (dust and dirt) there are such troubles like bird litter and shot down insects. As in the first and in the second case, complex spots are formed, which are quite capable of ruining the paint coating of the body of your vehicle forever, if they are not soaked immediately. If the auto owner does not respond in a timely manner, the appearance of the car will be spoiled and, most likely, will be fully repainted to the body. Such isolated cases can be removed by the timely discovery. Try to drop the spot with a wet napkin. However, if you can't clean it on your own, you will have to either buy special cleaning tool in the auto shop, or to drive into the sink. As a rule, professionals can be flushed out problem spots. It is worth noting that in no case cannot be used to clean the body of household chemicals or detergents for the house, because as a result of such experiments, a layer of varnish or even paint can be broken.

Engine Cooling System, with Heat Additional Check

In a strong heat before starting movement, it is necessary to check the engine, especially this refers to owners of used cars. It should be verified that in the cooling system there is enough antifreeze or other coolant. In addition, you need to check the thermostat, the fan and its inclusion sensor, because if something is not correctly functioning from this list, there is a high probability of overheating of the engine and it can be simply jammed.

Brake system, how the heat affects it, to pay attention to

The impact on the brakes of the strong heat is noticeably already when driving a hundred kilometers per hour or more. When the driver is pressed on the brake pedal, it is usually not pressed, but pushes back the leg. Most likely, many observed this phenomenon in the summer. At such moments, some drivers are panic, resulting in an accident, not rarely with severe consequences.

The first thing that professionals are advised to pay attention to - the ability to get out of panic in a timely manner. As a rule, being in an uncontrolled state, the car owner squeezes the pedal with all their might, but does not try to press it again. And there is an advantage of truck drivers who have moved to passenger. On the trucks often have to squeeze the pedal again, since the clutch does not always grab.

As statistics is evidenced, most often the impact of heat is felt on American-made cars that are endowed with ABS. The failure of the brakes is carried out during the strong heat when the driver presses the brake pedal for the first time after the engine has started. The system understands that it is faulty, it turns off and signals the driver with the lamp on the instrument panel.

Tips of professionals
