You can choose to evenly apply soap on the car windows to solve the problem. If the blur is caused by fogging on the side windows, it can be resolved by adjusting the air conditioning temperature and direction for both the driver and passenger seats. Purchase a dedicated water repellent and evenly spray or apply it on the rearview mirror. During rainy days, evenly apply toothpaste on the car's side windows, wait for a while until the applied toothpaste hardens, and then wipe it clean with a towel.

I've encountered many situations where rain obstructs the view through the windshield. The first thing I do is turn on the wipers and adjust their speed. For light rain, I use the low or medium setting, and for heavy rain, I switch to high speed. At the same time, I press the defog button and direct the air conditioning towards the windshield, setting the temperature a bit higher to help evaporate the moisture. This dual approach quickly clears the view. Regular maintenance is also essential—for instance, replacing worn wiper blades to ensure a clean sweep and changing dirty cabin air filters to maintain effective dehumidification. During car washes, using glass cleaner to remove grease ensures rainwater flows smoothly without sticking. When driving in the rain, reduce speed and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead. If fogging is severe, it's best to pull over and wait rather than risk an accident. These habits, honed over my ten years of driving experience, are both reliable and straightforward.

I drive a new car with automatic features, making it effortless to handle poor visibility in the rain. Pressing the AUTO button on the AC activates automatic dehumidification and defogging, while the rain-sensing wiper mode adjusts speed based on rainfall. Using the defog button to direct airflow to the windshield at a higher temperature speeds up moisture evaporation. Turning on a bit of external air circulation helps prevent fog condensation more effectively. Combined with the rear window electric heating and anti-fog glass cleaner spray, visibility is restored even better. Regular maintenance of the wiper system is crucial, and testing new wipers before installation avoids unusual noises. On highways, using cruise control assists in maintaining a steady speed, reducing fatigue. These technologies make rainy-day driving safer and smarter. Learning to utilize the built-in configurations enhances the overall experience.

When it's raining and visibility through the windshield is poor, immediately turn on the wipers and adjust to an appropriate speed. Use the defogging function with the air conditioner directed at the glass. Increasing the temperature speeds up dehumidification. Spray some windshield washer fluid for a cleaner, brighter view. Drive slower to maintain a safe distance. Regularly wash your car to keep it clean and prevent dirt buildup. Follow these simple steps to restore visibility without delay.

Which tire repair method is better?

Tire repair methods each have their own advantages and disadvantages. The appropriate repair method should be determined based on the actual situation. The following introduces several tire repair methods: 1. Hot vulcanization repair for car tires: Hot vulcanization is generally used for truck bias-ply tires. This method is not suitable for car tires because the baking process can damage the tire crown and cannot guarantee strength. It should be avoided as much as possible. 2. Plug repair: The quality of plugs used in roadside tire repair shops varies greatly. Some shops use inferior rubber plugs with smaller diameters and shorter lifespans, which can easily lead to slow leaks or plug detachment. Therefore, this method is generally not recommended. 3. Internal patch repair: Larger tire specialty shops usually use this method for tire repair. Its principle is somewhat similar to bicycle tire repair.

What are the symptoms of a clogged car air conditioning expansion valve?

Here are the symptoms of a clogged car air conditioning expansion valve: 1. When the expansion valve is partially clogged, frost forms at the inlet strainer, accompanied by intermittent and uneven airflow sounds (under normal operation, the expansion valve should produce a slight, continuous, and even airflow sound; frost forms in a 45° inclined line from the throttle orifice to the outlet side, while the inlet strainer remains frost-free). 2. When the expansion valve is completely clogged, there is no temperature difference between the inlet and outlet when touched by hand. 3. The air from the car's cooling vents feels warmer or not cold at all, the high-pressure side pressure is elevated, and the low-pressure side pressure shows a negative value.
