Although the severe cold weather this year came a little later than in previous years, for most northern regions, sub-zero temperatures are already the norm. How to warm up the car in winter is a topic that veteran drivers often talk about. Today we will take a look at what kind of hot car is more reasonable if you idle or slow down in place?
First of all, why do you need to warm up the car? Because the optimal working temperature of the engine and transmission is much higher than the ambient temperature, especially at sub-zero temperatures, the flow resistance of engine oil and transmission oil is extremely high, which is not conducive to the protection of engines, gearboxes and other components, so it is extremely important to warm cars in winter. In the past, in-situ idling and heating vehicles were almost universal, and even on the instructions of many heavy machinery, they would be stated that they must idling for a period of time before use in winter.
With the continuous development of the automobile industry, the instructions for idling in place on the car manual no longer exist. Instead, it is a matter of time to slow down. That is, after the vehicle is ignited, it will drive at a lower speed. When the engine temperature rises and the vehicle reaches the best working state, the owner can drive the vehicle as he wishes. This benefit is that it increases the load of the vehicle, the engine heats up faster, the car heats up shorter, and there will be no carbon deposits caused by idle speed in place, which is conducive to the long-term operation of the vehicle.
Which method is more scientific? The editor believes that these two types of car-hot car have their own advantages and disadvantages, but today's car engines are mature enough. I believe that neither method will cause serious engine damage. After all, there are many car owners of these two car-hot car methods nationwide, but the problems caused by this are rare. However, with a more rigorous attitude, we can look at the issue of hot cars dialectically. Car owners who like to drive with big feet and accelerator may wish to use the first way of warming cars; car owners who like to drive with short commuting distances and like to drive with low speeds, the second way can reduce carbon deposits and the fuel consumption will not be too high.
Finally, various oil-electric hybrid models have become popular in recent years. Since the engine running time of this type of vehicle is shorter than that of conventional fuel vehicles and cold starts more frequently, the challenge of using the vehicle in winter is greater. This type of car owner should strictly change the engine oil in accordance with the instructions for use. The engine runs for a short time in a high frequency, the engine temperature cannot be increased, and the oil and gasoline are easily dissolved, causing irreversible engine oil failure and reducing the protection ability of the engine. Therefore, this type of car owner should pay more attention to the matters of using the vehicle in winter.
Of course, there is no problem in the short term when the internal operation of the motor vehicle is running. It is often the middle and late stages of the vehicle that various problems may appear, so everyone does not have to take the car problem too seriously. Cars are originally used to facilitate everyone's life. If car maintenance makes people too much trouble, the benefits brought by cars will be greatly reduced, and the gains will not be worth the cost. What do you think?
