Don’t try to carry too much: Never exceed your
car’s roof load specifications or weight limits.You
can find them in your vehicle owner’s manual.
Check the weight limitation of your roof rack as
well. Typically the range is from 150 to 200
pounds (68 to 90 kg). That’s the equivalent of
eighteen 8-foot 2 x 4s (2.4-meter 38 x 89s) or
three sheets of 3/4-inch (17-mm) plywood. If you
have to deliver a heavy load from the home or
garden center, consider having it delivered. It will
save wear and tear on you as well as your car. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Inspect wheel-well splashguards: These guards, however flimsy on many of today’s cars, help keep water and winter’s salty slush from splashing up into the engine compartment, where it can damage sensitive electrical components. Unfortunately, these guards tear off easily — sometimes without the driver knowing it. Check for damage to these guards when you wash your car. Re-secure with the appropriate fasteners or replace as needed. As added protection from splashed-up muck, slush, and debris, install mud flaps (also called splash guards) on your vehicle.

Go easy when you’re stuck: When stuck in mud or snow, don’t make the problem worse by damaging an expensive component. Gently rocking in an attempt to free the car is fine. But if it looks as though you’re really stuck, don’t keep at it. Throwing your car from forward to reverse repeatedly, as well as spinning tires at high speeds, can generate lots of heat and spell trouble for transmissions, clutches, and differentials. It may be cheaper in the long run to call the tow truck rather than risk big repair bills down the road. It’s a good idea to carry a traction aid in the trunk, such as sand, gravel, or cat litter.

Lighten up your key chain: Does your car key
share a chain with a dozen or more other keys?
That’s a pretty heavy load hanging off the car key
when it’s in the ignition.The weight, combined
with bouncing while you drive, can wear out the
tumblers inside the ignition and eventually lead to
ignition switch failure.To add years of service to
your ignition switch, purchase a lightweight key
chain that allows you to separate your ignition
key from the others. Drive with only the ignition
key in your ignition. If your ignition key “sticks”
when you try to turn on the car, it’s a warning
that your ignition switch is about to fail. Replace
it before you get stranded. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Buy used tires: If you own a car that you plan to drive only for another year, the last thing you want to do is to buy a new set of tires. If it’s time to replace those tires though, it’s really time. Rather than hesitate, buy a set of used tires. Call local tire dealers to see what’s available. You’ll be surprised by how much wear is left in tires that are turned in by image-conscious car owners. Have your tire size handy. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Secure loads to avoid dents and scratches: The beginning of the end for the finish on many cars and trucks — and for wagon and hatchback interiors for that matter — is an improperly stowed load. Invest in the appropriate racks for bicycles, cargo, and luggage. A good trick to keep tall objects from sliding around in a pick-up truck bed is to use a shower curtain rod (or two) as a brace. Just push the cargo against the front wall of the truck bed and install the rod behind it. Twist to secure. Cargo nets will also help keep objects from banging around and damaging a truck bed WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Don’t fill up if you see the tanker : If you happen
to see a gasoline tanker filling the tanks at your
local gas station, come back another day or go to
a different station. As the station’s underground
tanks are being filled, the turbulence can stir up
sediment. Sediment in your gas can clog fuel
filters and fuel injectors, causing poor
performance and possibly necessitating repairs WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Fill with washer fluid only : Don’t add water to the
windshield washer reservoir. It won’t clean as
well as washer fluid, and it may freeze in cold
weather and damage the system. Don’t try to run
your windshield washer system once you suspect
there’s no more fluid in the tank, or you may
damage the washer fluid pump. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Clean dash gauges carefully: Use a soft damp cloth to lightly wipe dust from the clear plastic lenses on your dashboard. Too much pressure will scratch them. Too many scratches can make it difficult to read your gauges under certain lighting conditions WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

For stubborn carpet or mat stains: After vacuuming floor mats or interior carpeting, apply foam rug cleaner to resistant stains as directed by the maker. Work the foam into a few square feet at a time, using a wet sponge or brush. Vacuum when dry. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Blast mats with the hose: When washing your car, drag out the rubber or carpet floor mats and blast them with the hose.This will dislodge dirt particles that, if allowed to build up, will grind holes in your mats. Let the mats dry thoroughly in the sun before reinstalling them. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

When temperatures affect tire inflation: When outside temperatures drop or soar, tires tend to lose pressure. A drop of 10 degrees F (6 degrees C), in fact, will decrease a tire’s air pressure by 1 or 2 pounds.Tires can lose even more air in hot weather. Under-inflated tires can result in accelerated wear and poor driving performance. If you live in a place where temperatures vary a lot, check your tire pressure often and add air as needed.

Use your parking brake . Even if you are driving a
car with an automatic transmission, use your
parking brake regularly, especially if you're parked
on an incline. It helps keep the brakes adjusted in
the rear of the car and makes them last longer.
Do not use your parking brake in the wintertime
because your brake will freeze and it will be stuck
until it thaws out. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |

Air Conditioning: Make sure your air-conditioning
is working efficiently. If in doubt, have it checked
by a qualified professional. The most important
benefit of effective air-conditioning is that it
reduces driver fatigue, keeping the driver alert,
refreshed and more comfortable. WhatsApp: +436602306454 Contact: kakakibuy@hotmail.com |
