Car antifreeze is added to the car's coolant reservoir. Antifreeze is usually colored, making it easily distinguishable. After opening the engine hood, check the antifreeze reservoir's water level to see if it's appropriate. If it's below the standard level (between the maximum and minimum marks), you need to add coolant. Always add coolant after the engine has cooled down to prevent burns from hot coolant splashing. Antifreeze has a natural consumption rate, but it shouldn't deplete too quickly. If there's no leakage and the level is low, you can top it up with the same type of antifreeze. Non-long-life antifreeze is recommended to be replaced every two years. Antifreeze has many features, including preventing scale, oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, high boiling point, and antifreeze properties.

Should You Apply Brakes When Making a U-Turn in Subject 3?

You can apply brakes when making a U-turn. Below is an introduction to the U-turn method: 1. Decelerate first, then shift gears. Before making a U-turn, the car is usually moving relatively fast, around 30-40 km/h. Therefore, after completing the light operation, first apply the brakes to reduce the speed, then press the clutch to downshift (it's important to note that a U-turn must be done in second gear, so be sure to downshift to second gear). 2. Check the rearview mirror to ensure there are no surrounding hazards. To ensure a smooth U-turn, always check the rearview mirror to confirm it's safe behind you before proceeding. Then look forward; if there are oncoming vehicles, let them pass first. If there are no special circumstances, you can proceed with the U-turn. 3. Do not steer left prematurely. Although you need to turn the steering wheel fully to the left for a U-turn, remember not to start turning left too early. The earlier you begin turning, the harder it becomes to complete the U-turn. Keep the car moving straight, and when preparing to make the U-turn, quickly turn the steering wheel to the left to easily complete the maneuver.

What kind of shops can clean car chassis?

Cleaning a car chassis requires machines to lift the car, sufficient water pressure, and specialized chemical tools to remove specific substances. Types of chassis stains: Mud-type stains can be directly washed away with the pressure of a high-pressure water gun, but curved areas may require multiple rinses to ensure complete removal. Grease-type stains generally cannot be cleaned with water alone. When washing these types of stains, a small shovel tool is needed for initial scraping. If necessary, degreasers and other tools may be used. Inspection and repair: After cleaning, a thorough inspection is required. If rust is found during the inspection, it must be sanded and removed. After derusting and cleaning, the car chassis should be dried and wiped clean, then evenly sprayed with a rust-proofing agent to form a durable protective film. After completion, allow it to air dry naturally. Finally, apply a protective coating. Since the car chassis is made of metal, it is prone to rust in the air, making it harder to clean. The protective coating helps resolve these issues.

How to Adjust the Hardness of the Cab's Shock Absorber Airbag?

The hardness of the cab's airbag is related to the material of the airbag and cannot be adjusted. Here is some relevant information about shock absorber airbags: 1. Introduction: Shock absorbers are vulnerable components during the use of a car. The performance of the shock absorber directly affects the smoothness of the car's ride and the lifespan of other components. Therefore, it is essential to keep the shock absorber in good working condition. 2. Development: After driving the car on a road with poor conditions for 10km and then stopping, touch the outer shell of the shock absorber with your hand. If it is not hot enough, it indicates that there is no resistance inside the shock absorber, and the shock absorber is not working. At this point, you can add an appropriate amount of lubricating oil and test again. If the outer shell becomes hot, it means there is insufficient oil inside the shock absorber, and more oil should be added. Otherwise, it indicates that the shock absorber has failed.
