Water leakage on the left side of a car is generally caused by aging door frame seals or deformed door weatherstrips. Below are some relevant tips for door maintenance: 1. Proper Door Closing: Push the door to a distance of 10-15cm from the car body, then gently close it with slight force. Alternatively, slowly push the door until it closes before releasing your hand. This effectively protects the door and avoids loud noises. 2. Door Maintenance: The key to extending door lifespan is "maintenance." Frequent door operation can increase wear, corrosion, and even failure if the door limiter and hinges are not lubricated in time. Professionals can apply grease to lubricate door hinges and limiters, reducing wear.

What are the reasons for increased fuel consumption after replacing spark plugs?

The reasons for increased fuel consumption after replacing spark plugs are: 1. Incorrect spark plug model; 2. Spark plugs were not tightened properly during installation. The function of automotive spark plugs is to discharge the pulsed high voltage electricity delivered by the high-voltage wires, breaking down the air between the two electrodes of the spark plug to generate an electric spark, thereby igniting the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. Precautions for using spark plugs: 1. Clean carbon deposits promptly; 2. Avoid prolonged use; 3. Avoid random descaling; 4. Avoid using fire to remove carbon deposits and oil stains from the spark plug electrodes and skirt; 5. Avoid using the wrong heat range of spark plugs; 6. Avoid over-tightening during installation.

Why Should Flood-Damaged Cars Not Be Restarted?

Because starting the engine can cause the piston connecting rod to bend, and in severe cases, damage the cylinder block, resulting in irreparable harm. Below are methods to identify flood-damaged cars: 1. Smell the interior: Check for a musty odor. Flood-damaged cars often have a musty smell in hidden areas such as the floor mats, trunk mats, and under the seats, which is difficult to remove and usually leaves evidence. If you detect a musty smell, be cautious. If the car smells unusually fragrant, that should also raise a red flag, as it may be an attempt to mask the musty odor. 2. Inspect hidden parts of the vehicle: Look for rust or signs of replacement on screws in concealed areas; pull out the seats to check for rust or sand in the tracks; extend the seatbelt fully to see if there are water stains or dirt at the end.
