In winter, because the weather is colder, the vehicle is more likely to have some problems, we can through active inspection and maintenance, to find and eliminate some of the initial, potential, hidden faults. What are all the precautions for winter vehicles?

Heating system
Whether or not the warm air system works properly is undoubtedly very important in winter. Although the heating system is simpler than the air conditioning system, it can also break down after being out of service for a summer. Therefore, before winter, try to see if there is any hot air in the warm air system, if there is any noise in the operation of the fan, and if the air ducts are smooth. Sometimes encountered in the warm air water pipe in the antifreeze does not flow for a long time, condensation clogging the circulating pipeline, although it does not affect the driving, maintenance is very troublesome, so the warm air system has a problem must be timely in the nearest 4S shop or repair shop repair.

Cooling System
Antifreeze must be used in winter, if the engine cooling system is ordinary water, it is easy to freeze, which is not conducive to the car start, and may also cause serious damage to the engine. According to statistics, the cooling system failure is the number one killer of engine failure, but also accounted for about 60% of the total number of engine failures! So using antifreeze in winter can effectively curb the occurrence of cooling system icing events.

Water spray system
Even if the wiper water spray system in the winter will be significantly reduced, but also can not be ignored, in the winter below zero degrees Celsius environment, should be replaced with anti-freezing winter glass water, or in the glass water to add the appropriate proportion of alcohol, you can achieve the purpose of reducing the freezing point, anti-freezing.

Power supply system
The main point here is the battery. The battery is very "sensitive" to low temperatures, and the battery capacity in low temperature environment is much lower than that in room temperature. Although nowadays the battery is maintenance-free, no need to replenish the battery electrolyte and adjust the specific gravity of the electrolyte. However, before the cold season, you should also clean the battery terminals and apply special grease to protect them, to ensure reliable start-up and prolong the life of the battery.

Air intake system
In winter it may often happen that the car does not start. Apart from the cooling system and insufficient battery charge, this is mostly due to excessive carbon build-up on the throttle and air intake. It is recommended that car owners clean the engine throttle carbon in winter, in general, we recommend that every 20,000 kilometres or so to clean the throttle body, while checking the spark plugs, can be a good way to prevent the engine from not catching fire.

Lubrication system
As we all know oil has lubrication, cooling, cleaning three major functions, the normal flow of oil is to ensure the normal work of the engine important medium. However, the realisation of these functions is mainly related to the viscosity and fluidity of the engine oil. The viscosity of the oil will change with the temperature. In the winter when replacing the engine oil, must pay attention to the selection of the appropriate viscosity, different viscosity levels for different ambient temperatures, if the choice is not appropriate, it is easy to cause the car engine starting difficulties or even unable to start and other problems. Unsuitable engine oil will increase the engine's working resistance, aggravate the wear of mechanical parts and increase fuel consumption. The correct choice of engine oil is particularly important to increase the service life of the engine.

In bad weather conditions, the maintenance of the vehicle is not only the care of the vehicle, but more importantly, the protection of their own lives and the safety of others. So for the sake of life safety, vehicle maintenance must be paid attention to, at the same time, ZLIN Group will provide one-stop after-sales service for your vehicle, so contact us to get the latest quote for your vehicle: Whats app: +8617638132352
