If the car dashboard is corroded by perfume, take it to a 4S shop for repair, and then seek compensation from the perfume manufacturer. The most important thing is to discard the perfume immediately to ensure such incidents do not happen again.

When white spots appeared on my car's dashboard due to perfume corrosion, I immediately took action. The alcohol in perfume can erode plastic surfaces, so I quickly used a clean, damp cloth to wipe away excess liquid to prevent spreading. Then, I gently cleaned the affected area with diluted mild soapy water, being careful not to cause further damage. After cleaning, I dried it with a dry cloth and let it air dry naturally. During the process, I found that mild corrosion can be handled with soapy water, but severe cases may require specialized automotive plastic restorers available on Taobao at affordable prices. For prevention, I now use alcohol-free perfume bottles placed on non-slip silicone pads to avoid direct contact with the dashboard. Car plastics are fragile, especially in older vehicles where sunlight accelerates aging. Regular inspection and maintenance can prevent issues, and I recommend car owners develop good habits to maintain interior conditions.

Can the steering wheel weight of the Mercedes-Benz C260L be adjusted?

The steering wheel weight of the Mercedes-Benz C260L can be adjusted, and the light steering wheel can be made heavier. Because the car's electric power steering wheel has a learning function, it will become heavier or lighter according to road conditions and driving habits. Whether it becomes heavier or lighter will affect the driving feel. Relevant information about the car steering wheel is as follows: 1. Function: Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque and then transmit it to the steering shaft. 2. Correct grip: If the steering wheel is regarded as a clock face, the correct gesture is to hold the left hand between 9 and 10 o'clock and the right hand between 3 and 4 o'clock. In the event of a collision, this posture is more conducive to supporting the body.

What are the reasons why the Baojun 360 won't start?

Baojun 360 won't start for the following reasons: 1. Check if the battery voltage is too low: Turn on the headlights and some electrical devices to observe whether the dashboard and interior lighting dim during the starting process. If they dim, it indicates insufficient battery voltage. 2. Excessive carbon deposits in the intake pipe: Excessive carbon deposits on the throttle valve, idle speed motor, etc., prevent the engine's air-fuel mixture from reaching the required ratio, causing the vehicle to fail to start. The repeated engagement of the solenoid and starter relay produces a clicking sound. 3. Insufficient fuel supply in the fuel system: This phenomenon is similar to excessive carbon deposits in the intake pipe, also preventing the engine from achieving the required air-fuel mixture ratio, resulting in the vehicle's inability to start.

Will the Car Be the Same After Repairing a Rear-End Collision?

After repairing a rear-end collision, the car may still have some differences compared to before. Here is some relevant information: Determine the extent of damage and develop a repair plan: After a vehicle is involved in a collision, you can first visually assess the extent of the damage yourself. For minor scratches that do not require bodywork, polishing may suffice. However, if the damage has caused deformation, it will need to be taken to a repair shop. Damage assessment: After a collision, you should call your insurance company—the one that provides your vehicle insurance policy. An insurance assessor will then conduct an on-site inspection, take photos of the exterior, and it is important to protect the scene of the incident.
