Winter is definitely not the easiest period for a car. Most car enthusiasts know that driving a car in winter is undesirable. If you are not going to drive a car in winter, do not rush to relax, because in order to prepare it for wintering, you have to work a little.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, you need to choose a parking place. Try to find a level place where puddles will not appear. If you plan to park your car in a paid parking lot, make sure that it is clearly visible to the guards. If the car is to be parked in the garage, it is necessary to ensure that the room is well ventilated.
Step 2
Next, you should thoroughly wash and dry the body and the bottom of the car. Make sure that all dirt is completely removed from the machine. After that, treat the body with an anti-corrosion agent, especially in areas where rust is already visible. Do not forget about the most vulnerable spots - sills, interior door surfaces, interior beams and side members.
Step 3
Lubricate all parts that work in some mechanism (trunk hinges, hood, doors, etc.)
Step 4
Fill the tank full of gas to help protect the inside of the tank from condensation and corrosion.
Step 5
Place the vehicle on stands. This will help relieve the springs, tires and suspension springs. Bleed some of the air from the tires to relieve the pressure in them.
Step 6
If the car does not have an air conditioner, it is recommended to remove the battery and store it on the balcony, periodically checking its charge and, if something happens, recharging it. If there is an air conditioner, then the battery does not need to be removed. It is only required to periodically check the operation of the air conditioner.
