Two days ago, fans came to the master to chat, saying that they went to the 4S shop to do oil maintenance. As a result, the service consultant gave him a lot of maintenance items, suggesting that he replace the fuel filter, brake pads, air filter, etc. It is a hurry to do 'big health care'!
Ask the master how long does it take for these routine maintenance? I don't want to be pitted, I don't have a bottom in my heart! So today the master will come to talk about it, the replacement cycle of these maintenance parts and some things happening in the 4S shop!
Oil and oil filter
Recommended replacement cycle: 5000 km
A sister drove the BMW 7 Series to the 4S shop and said that the car was lit up, reminding her to come over and do an oil maintenance. The service consultant said that it would cost 1161 yuan for the oil maintenance. The sister said it was so expensive, then turned around and left. Oil maintenance is still to be done, after all, the car is already lit, it should not be done. But 4S shop will launch some projects like lubrication packages, these are not necessary to do, it is better to shorten the maintenance cycle Come to be practical.
Air conditioning filter
Recommended replacement cycle: 10,000 km inspection
When a car owner arrives at the store and says that the air conditioner has a bad smell, it is really difficult to accept. When the service consultant opens the bonnet, he looks like a bunch of bones and a dead mouse. If the service consultant does not open the engine compartment. Look at the cover, directly said that replacing the air conditioning filter is useless. There is also the need to pay attention when parking normally, try to indoor garage, if not, also try to find some clean places to stop. Avoid the abnormal cycle of air conditioning filter replacement.
Air filter
Recommended replacement cycle: 10,000 km
Generally, when the replacement time is reached, the service consultant will advise the owner to replace the air conditioning filter. However, if you usually take the pavement of the city, you can let the technician remove it and see if it is cleaned with a wind gun. Therefore, when the service consultant advises you to do this maintenance, you should pay attention to it. It is more appropriate to tell him to take it out and look at it.
Tire
Recommended replacement cycle: 50,000 to 80,000 km
Whether the tire needs to be replaced, this is more intuitive. Generally, when you lift the vehicle at the pre-checking station, you can see the degree of wear of the tire. The tire should be changed before the recommended replacement value of 3mm, if you still Do not replace, to the limit replacement value of 1.6mm, it must be replaced. Once aunt went to the 4S shop to replace the tires, when the car said that the front wheel of the car was replaced with the old one, also said no to say To report to the police, the last supervisor came out to convince the owner. Although the 4S shop is quite pitted, it is not going to be a sneak peek, so don't worry about it.
Wiper Blade
Recommended replacement cycle: 1 year
In fact, the most feared part of the wiper blade is that it is not clean. Rainy weather affects driving. So once this happens, it should be replaced. There was a car owner who brought a wiper blade to the store to find a familiar service consultant to help install. There is no need to change the wiper blade to the 4S shop. You can replace it yourself. But pay attention to wipe the wiper blade and replace it. Avoid the fine sand scraping windshield on it.
Brake pad
Recommended replacement cycle: 30,000 km
If you are driving normally, you can do it according to the recommendations in the maintenance manual. There was a foreigner driving a coupe and going to 'floating' all day. As a result, the brakes were replaced in the store one month. Some 4S stores will introduce brakes. The film maintenance project, the effect of this maintenance is not obvious, it is to apply some grease. If the service consultant recommends this to you, then choose not to do it.
Gasoline filter
Recommended replacement cycle: 10,000 km
The main function of the fuel filter is to filter out impurities in the gasoline. If the fuel filter is clogged, the fuel may become slower or slower when it is added. The replacement of the fuel filter is related to the quality of the gasoline you add. Therefore, when the service consultant proposes to change, I will add this oil factor when considering whether to change.
When a car owner encountered a service consultant's suggestion to replace the fuel filter, said that the last time I changed the oil, did I change it together? The service consultant looked speechless and explained that the last time I changed the oil filter. Unclear oil filter and fuel filter are two things. Naturally, I think that the replacement time is short and I am pitted. However, in the face of the service consultant's suggestion, I should have my own judgment. Otherwise, it is inevitable that I will be cheated. .
Spark plug
Recommended replacement cycle: 30,000 km
As an important part of the engine's acceleration performance and fuel consumption performance, spark plugs, if left unmaintained for a long time, are not replaced in time, which will cause serious engine carbon deposition. Of course, you should not think that the spark plug is a warranty, I want to let the 4S shop replace it for you free of charge. Spark plug maintenance is a routine maintenance item, so don't count on the 4S shop. When you are driving, you feel that the engine is not running enough, then you should check it at the store.
As the owner of the vehicle still needs to know some maintenance parts on the vehicle, you can judge whether the part should be replaced according to the advice in the maintenance manual and your usual car habits. Avoid being led by the service consultant. Of course, in need In the case of replacement, it still has to be replaced. It is not necessary to change the money because it is necessary to save money. This will inevitably bring more hidden dangers.
