Vehicle precautions for driving through water are: 1. Overcome the fear of wet road driving: Roads are slippery on rainy days, and the first challenge to overcome when driving in the rain is psychological; 2. Avoid sudden movements: When driving on wet roads, the tire grip decreases sharply as speed increases, and sudden maneuvers can easily cause hydroplaning; 3. Ensure clear forward visibility: Poor visibility is a hidden danger, making windshield wipers crucial. If the wipers vibrate or make unusual noises during operation, you can lift them and check the rubber blades with your fingers to see if they are damaged, have lost elasticity, or show signs of aging, hardening, or cracking. If so, they should be replaced promptly.

Can Antifreeze Cause Overheating?

Antifreeze can cause overheating, so it is necessary to check the cooling system for leaks, such as in the water pump or radiator. When filling antifreeze, air may be trapped in the antifreeze lines, and the antifreeze level will drop once the air is expelled. If the engine burns water, such as when the engine head gasket is damaged, it may burn antifreeze, and replacing the head gasket will resolve the issue. High coolant temperature in the cooling system can cause boiling, leading to antifreeze being expelled, so the cause of the high temperature must be checked. Antifreeze is a coolant containing special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It provides excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and protecting against scale and corrosion year-round. It can be used in cars, diesel locomotives, tractors, ships, engines, radiators, and various mechanical equipment.

What is the normal temperature for car air conditioning in winter?

In winter, the normal temperature for car air conditioning is between 18°C and 25°C. It is recommended to maintain a temperature difference of less than 10°C between the inside and outside of the car. The comfortable temperature range for the human body is 20°C to 25°C. If the temperature is too high, the large temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car can easily cause colds, while a temperature that is too low will affect driving comfort. When starting the car in winter, owners usually switch the air conditioning to heating mode. However, since the temperature of the radiator is very low when the engine starts in winter, it is not advisable to set the air conditioning temperature too high. Setting the temperature too high when the radiator is cold will increase the burden on the engine. The correct method is to wait for the engine to warm up, then turn on the heating mode, set the air circulation to external circulation to expel the cold air inside the car, and then adjust the air circulation to internal circulation.
