Is It Okay to Park the Car Outside in Snowy Weather?
1 Answers
Parking the car outside in snowy weather can have significant impacts, especially on components like the engine, battery, and tires. Causing Radiator Burst or Cylinder Cracking: This situation primarily occurs when the engine coolant freezes. When the vehicle is turned off, coolant remains in the intercooler and engine cooling passages. If it freezes, the expanding volume can damage the engine. Battery Performance Issues: Low temperatures greatly affect the battery. In winter, as temperatures drop, the battery's starting capacity decreases, making it highly possible that the vehicle won't start the next morning. Insufficient Tire Pressure: Due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, tire pressure is generally lower in cold weather, so it's necessary to appropriately increase the pressure.
