There are three methods for repairing car wheel hubs: 1. Surface Damage Repair Method: (1) Dust-free sandblasting; (2) Applying putty; (3) Grinding; (4) Spray painting; (5) Wire drawing; (6) Baking; (7) Polishing: 2. Deformation Repair Method: (1) Deformation location detection: First, locate the deformed area of the wheel hub, mount the hub on a fixture, and use a calibration dial to find and adjust the deformation. (2) Heating: Use a blowtorch to locally heat the deformed area. The small red dots on the hub are infrared thermometers; stop heating once the desired temperature is reached. (3) Correction: Once the hub softens at the appropriate temperature, use a small hydraulic jack for repeated slight corrections until the hub meets reasonable standards. (4) Completion: If the deformation of the hub's reinforcement ribs (left-right sway) is particularly severe, repair is not recommended. 3. Hub Fracture Repair Method: Direct replacement.

How to Deal with Foggy Windshield on Passat?

Blowing hot air can effectively defog the windshield. At the same time, turn on the external circulation of the air conditioning and set the air vents to defog mode to prevent the car interior from getting too cold. After the front windshield fogs up, slightly lower the window to allow outside air to flow into the car, which will quickly disperse the fog. Keep a towel ready to wipe off the fog when it appears. Applying a mixture of dish soap or soapy water, then rinsing with clean water and drying it off can prevent fogging for a short period. Glycerin can also be used as an alternative.

How to Deal with Frozen Snow on Car Windows?

Do not drive immediately after getting in the car, as frost impairs visibility, and avoid using the windshield wipers to scrape. Instead, warm up the car while stationary to allow the engine coolant temperature to rise. After the engine coolant temperature has risen, turn on the heater and adjust the airflow direction to upward mode. Let it blow for a while to melt the frost. As soon as the frost begins to melt, wipe away the moisture. Repeat this process several times to gradually increase the melted area and prevent refreezing. Using a snow scraper can improve efficiency, but ensure to choose a high-quality one with soft rubber blades to avoid scratching the windshield. If conditions permit, you can rinse with lukewarm water. Be sure to control the temperature—avoid using excessively hot water—and wipe dry after the frost has melted.
