Synthetic Oil: Best For Your Car Engine

by Administrator 25. January 2012 19:30

Everybody wants our car to stay in good condition and safe on road. But how many of us actually are able to take care of our vehicles properly? Perhaps only a handful of people are aware about what is good and what is bad for their car’s health. Along with exterior car care, it is equally important to keep a check on the maintenance of the car engine. Being one of the most important parts of the car, you must keep a regular check for the smooth functioning of the engine. We all know that the life of the engine depends on two major factors: driving skill and the engine oil.

Synthetic oil is considered to be better than the conventional ones. This is because synthetic oil can withstand higher temperature and can work for a longer period of time without losing its lubricating features. Unlike the conventional engine oil, it does not get thicker at or below zero temperatures thereby providing great lubrication at a cold start.

As synthetic oil is thinner than the conventional engine oil, it is ideal for low-mileage or turbo engine. In simple words, the vehicles which are driven in heavy conditions such as high temperature, excessive load, driving for long intervals without changing the engine oil etc must opt for synthetic oil.

However, there is no harm in using the conventional/thicker oil but it must be regularly changed to provide ample protection to the engine.  Synthetic oil is no doubt a bit costlier than other oil but it will bear up the wear and tear better. So an extra investment can assure you longer performing oil and a good engine life.

Maintaining Car Air Conditioners

by Administrator 20. January 2012 13:28

Do you know that on an average, the temperature of a car can reach up to 130 degrees F when left under the sun? Without air conditioners it becomes very difficult to sit in the car specially during summer months. This makes car air conditioners all the more important feature that should be there in various automobiles. Be it winters or summers, car AC make us enjoy comfortable driving experience in all weathers.

When it comes to car AC maintenance, just like air conditioners at homes, they need regular servicing. Following are some tips to ensure your car air conditioners stay in good working condition:

  • Know about the parts of the AC: The user manual of your car contains all details regarding each and every component of the car, including the air conditioner. It makes you know about all the parts of car air conditioner like the compressor, evaporator, hoses and belts. These parts tend to wear out at very soon and need to be replaced when required. However, no parts of the AC collapse all of a sudden. So keep a regular check on the working of the AC.
  • Servicing at regular intervals: The professionals at the servicing centers make a thorough inspection of your car AC and ensure that all its parts are working smoothly. The level of its refrigerant is checked and hoses are also checked for leakages or hardening.
  • Don’t keep AC unused for long: If you do not use the car AC for a long period of time, its hoses may get hardened. It is very important to run the AC once a month for at least 10 to 15 minutes to maintain the coolant pressure.
  • Dry out evaporator core: It is also very important to dry out the evaporator core after using the car AC for a long duration. Run the car’s defrost to ensure that accumulated moisture is cleared out. This helps in avoiding any bad odor in the car.

Tips For Driving In Winter

by Administrator 6. January 2012 15:27

Winter season has arrived and everyone has geared up for anticipated vacation with their family and friends. But you must make sure you that you stay safe while driving in severe chilled weather conditions.

To make sure you don't spend your vacation on road or even worse, just try to update your car maintenance items. The following tips will keep you out of trouble:

  • Plan your travel and check the latest weather reports often to avoid a snow related weather problems.
  • A weather safety-kit is required. If you don't own one, you can build one with the help of safety booklets or hand-books.
  • Make sure to buy all the supplies in the kit and read all instructions beforehand. You wouldn't want to read them after you got freezing cold or are possibly wet.
  • If you live in a cold region, make sure to keep a sack of sand (or cat litter) for tire traction and a shovel on the back of the trunk.
  • Keep your gas tank full to avoid ice in that area.
  • Fully check the car parts especially lubrication system, cooling system and battery, before the winter starts.
  • Many service-stations and repair centers check the antifreeze-water level for free. Check the level and your engine-oil too. Make sure the other parts (wipers, tires, batteries, spark plug-wires, brakes etc) stay good throughout the journey or season.
  • Even if you have checked and maintained your car, there may be chances that odd situations may occur. Therefore, you have to be smart enough to be prepared for the winter-emergency. Carry extra-items to survive. Say, for example, blankets, water and other life-saver items in case you get stuck in the cold-storm. Jumper cables are helpful if temperature-beaten battery needs a boost.
