Arctic White is more durable. If a small area is scratched, you can just repaint the scratched area as long as the color difference is minimal. However, with Dimension White, the entire panel must be repainted. In terms of both the cost-effectiveness of touch-up paint and the car's resale value, Arctic White is the better choice. Of course, Dimension White is truly more visually appealing than Arctic White, especially under sunlight where it sparkles. Below are the hazards of not washing your car for a long time: 1. Increased fuel consumption: Dust or debris that falls on the car will accumulate over time, adding weight to the vehicle. Additionally, dust may enter various systems of the car, leading to higher fuel consumption. 2. Damage to the paint: Rain can cause oils from the dust to adhere to the car's paint, forming a layer of grime. Over time, this grime can cause damage to the underlying paint. Moreover, in some industrial areas, rainwater has higher acidity, and prolonged exposure to such acid rain can lead to paint oxidation and corrosion. 3. Increased maintenance costs: Washing your car every two weeks or once a month helps protect the paint and keeps it looking good. If you neglect washing your car for an extended period, the paint may get damaged, and repairing it will cost significantly more.

What does the car faucet indicator mean?

There are several reasons why the faucet indicator appears in a car: Actually, this icon is the engine malfunction indicator light. If it illuminates while driving, it could indicate issues such as poor engine combustion, engine knocking, low-quality fuel, dirty engine cylinders with carbon deposits, or the computer failing to retrieve engine data. Additional Information: The engine malfunction indicator light is controlled by the engine computer, which essentially manages all electrical components of the engine. Therefore, any malfunction will be displayed through this light. There are numerous reasons for the engine malfunction light to illuminate, including faults in the purge solenoid valve controlling fuel vapor emissions, air flow meter failure, ignition coil failure, thermostat failure, catalytic converter failure, oxygen sensor failure, excessive carbon buildup in the electronic throttle, and more.

What Causes Abnormal Noises in the Engine Compartment?

Engine compartment abnormal noises may be caused by the following reasons: Abnormal noises in the engine compartment while driving could be due to issues like engine valve noise, piston noise, accessory noise, or even transmission noise and chassis noise. Since there are many potential causes of abnormal noises, an accurate diagnosis cannot be made without inspecting the actual vehicle. Additional Information: Sometimes, abnormal noises are heard from the engine while driving, but when the car is stopped for inspection, the noise does not occur even when the engine is running at the same RPM as when the noise was heard. In such cases, you can loosen the carburetor adjustment screw slightly and then restart the engine to see if the noise reappears, which can help identify its characteristics. If the noise still does not occur, you can try cutting off the fuel supply to a specific cylinder and performing a rapid acceleration test. This may help the noise to reappear and also determine the relationship between the noise and the specific cylinder.

What to Do About Car Scratches?

There are three ways to deal with car scratches: 1. Minor scratches, which are mostly caused by trees, flowers, and plants. Wash the car thoroughly, apply coarse wax in a circular motion first, then apply fine wax, wiping in the same direction from the inside out for a longer time. Finally, wipe off the wax with a clean cloth, and you will see the small scratches disappear. If the scratches remain, there are two possible reasons: insufficient polishing time or the scratches being slightly deep. 2. Wash and dry the car, shake the touch-up pen before use to mix the paint evenly. Before applying the paint, use adhesive tape to cover the areas around the scratch to make the touch-up easier and prevent the paint from spreading to other areas. After the touch-up paint dries, polish with fine wax. 3. Scratches that expose the primer can easily cause the metal to rust. First, perform rust removal and prevention on the surface. Wash and dry the car, apply rust remover to the scratch, wait about 15 minutes, then wipe off the rust remover with a clean cloth and apply rust inhibitor. After applying the rust inhibitor, wait a few minutes before spraying with spray paint. Before spraying, cover the surrounding area with newspaper. If dealing with scratches that expose the primer is difficult, it is recommended to seek professional help at a repair shop.

What to Do When the Three-Way Catalytic Converter Warning Light Comes On?

The solutions for the three-way catalytic converter warning light coming on are as follows: 1. First, decode the car's computer. 2. If the light remains on after decoding, it indicates that the issue is not with the computer but likely a damaged oxygen sensor. In this case, take the car to a repair shop or 4S store for professional repair or replacement of the oxygen sensor. Below are some tips on how to prevent three-way catalytic converter failures: 1. Reduce idling time while driving, as prolonged idling increases the engine's internal temperature. The catalytic converter has a temperature limit, especially in summer when temperatures are already higher than usual. Therefore, avoid idling for more than 10 minutes. 2. Avoid using leaded gasoline and oil additives, as they act like slow poison for the catalytic converter and will eventually cause failure over time. 3. Develop good driving habits. Since the catalytic converter is located under the car, be cautious when driving on gravel or rough roads. Try to take detours if necessary. If the three-way catalytic converter hits the ground, it will inevitably be damaged.

What are the Five Oils and Three Fluids in a Car?

Five oils refer to: gasoline, engine oil, transmission oil, brake fluid, and power steering fluid; three fluids refer to: antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, and battery fluid. Collectively, they are known as the five oils and three fluids. Below is a detailed introduction to the five oils and three fluids: 1. Gasoline: The primary fuel for cars. Engine oil: Lubricates and cools the engine, protecting it. 2. Transmission oil: Lubricates and cools the transmission, generally recommended to be replaced every 60,000 kilometers. 3. Brake fluid: Should be replaced once a year or every 20,000 kilometers, as old brake fluid absorbs too much moisture, lowering its boiling point and potentially causing vapor lock under intense or frequent braking, leading to brake failure. 4. Power steering fluid: Uses hydraulic action to make steering easier. 5. Antifreeze: Full name is antifreeze coolant, meaning a coolant with antifreeze properties, preventing the coolant from freezing in cold winter conditions, which could crack the radiator or damage the engine block or cylinder head. 6. Windshield washer fluid: Cleaning water for the wipers. 7. Battery fluid: Most cars sold today come with maintenance-free batteries, so you only need to check the battery's inspection window to observe the color and determine the battery's condition.
