Automated washing stations offer a variety of services and special programs for car wash, but to respond to some of these offers. "Auto-washing can cause damage, because the water is sprayed with high pressure in unsuitable ranges such as moving parts of the mechanical group as well as sensitive electronic units," explained Carsten Graf, ADAC technical expert. It is often not possible to reach the positions of the effluent by washing in the washing stations. Graff added that manual washing of the car has its benefits, explaining that: "One can initial treatment of some corners and corners, which do not reach the stations of automatic washing." In addition, manual manual washing is useful in cases of heavily soiled vehicles, because severe staining causes damage to the coating layer when washing. "When the driver gets sunk when riding or loading or unloading the car, it indicates the need to wash the car as quickly as possible," said German expert Graf. Currently, motorists usually go to the washing stations once a week or once a month. The German expert is not advised to wash the car frequently, not only because of the high cost factor, but frequent washing does not help to keep the car better.
With summer and high temperatures, many of us begin to take precautionary measures to cope with the summer and maintain public health. Yet some forget that cars, especially tires also need similar measures. Keeping in mind that the weather is very hot during the summer in our region, these difficult conditions may be a real problem for tires if they do not receive proper maintenance. Pierre Granzotto, general manager of passenger cars and vice president of the Michelin region for Africa, India and the Arab world, presents a set of basic tips on how to maintain tires during the hot summer months: Check tires regularly, all tires - including reserve - must be checked regularly. And search for any visible effects of damage or rupture, such as deep fractures, the appearance of supporting wires, or cuts or even diminishing the pattern of the frame. Check tire pressure, once per month. Low tire pressure causes corrosion speed, which also affects vehicle performance, including brake efficiency, control, safety, and fuel consumption. Check tire balance - When feeling vibrated, tire balance helps to prolong life, avoid rapid consumption and eliminate vibration problem. It also protects suspension tools, control system and tweeters. Checking the wheel budget - When there is a tendency or deviation in driving, this problem affects the safety of the suspension tools and the deviation of their budget, which affects the position and direction of the wheels. In conclusion, the vehicle should not be overloaded, because excess weight contributes to faster tire wear and fuel consumption, thus reducing control and balance, and reducing brake efficiency.
