Most drivers face a number of very common problems and malfunctions in their vehicles, and they are almost daily or periodic.For experienced drivers, they may not experience any problems with these malfunctions because they are familiar with them, as for those with less experience, it is another question.In this article, we will introduce you to a number of the most important of these common car malfunctions and ways to treat them.
The first problem: the color of the engine exhaust
The engine exhaust, or the so-called “Shacman”, should be colorless, and one of the common problems in this part of the car is that it comes out three different colors, each of which has a pattern:
1- White discharge color:
If the color of the exhaust that comes out of the “Shacman” is white and continues to go out, especially in normal operating conditions, this is the result of a leakage of cooling water into the combustion chamber, with it it burns and produces this color for the drain.
2- black or gray color:
When smoke of a dark color between black or gray comes out of the exhaust, this indicates the combustion of a large amount of fuel inside the combustion chamber, and here it is necessary to adjust the carburetor or atomizers, i.e. adjust the air with fuel.
3- Light blue color:
This indicates the presence of combustion of lubricating oil inside the combustion chamber, and here the engine must be repaired immediately.
The second problem: engine overheating
Engine overheating is one of the most common car problems, and when this occurs, the following should be followed:
It is necessary to immediately take the right lane from the road, stop the car in a safe place, turn off the engine from rotation, then open the hood very carefully and monitor for any water leaks in the cooling cycle, as necessary to prevent it and repair as necessary, and must be ensured that the safety of Turn on the fan, then make sure that there is water inside the radiator, but after the engine has cooled down so that we can open the cover, then we must making sure the water is safe in the radiator, and that there is water in it at the required level, as well as making sure the lid is secure.The radiator itself and there is nothing blocking the air from.
The third problem: the car is low to the ground
In the event that you suffer from the lowering of the level of the car on the ground, it is necessary to ensure the safety of the “spikes” and aids that will raise the level of the car, but will damage the aid and lead to bumps in the bumps during the driving, and you have to go to one of the authorized and specialized centers and ask for the possibility of raising the level of the car from the ground.
Problem 4: how to detect the battery status
It is not recommended when detecting the state of the battery, connecting the ends of its poles with a cable or screwdriver and making a spark, as this process leads to the passage of a “high amplifier”, which will damage the internal parts of the battery and break the active ingredient contained in it by the panels.
The fifth problem – the appearance of the smell of gasoline while driving
If you smell gasoline during frequent driving, make sure there are no gasoline leaks from the fuel cycle, as well as proper engine adjustment, especially at high revs, and the absence of an exhaust vent from the “Shacman”, and finally make sure that the internal air intakes of the rear trunk or The presence of an obstruction in the tank ventilation pipe in some cars.
Problem six: hear the sound of “self” when the car is running and not working
When the car is running, the “car” sound is heard, but the car does not start. This indicates that the ignition system or fuel injection system is not working. It is therefore necessary to ensure that there is a spark, as well as the arrival of sufficient pressure from the gasoline.
Problem seven: measure tire pressure
In the case of measuring tire air pressure, care must be taken that the tire is cold in order to give a correct reading of the tire.
Problem eight: brake fluid
When the brake fluid level is low, it does not need to be supplied. This is because a decrease in its level indicates wear on the brake pads, which illuminates the brake warning light on the dashboard screen. And vice versa, and brake fluid is supplied in case of leaks or in case of replacement of internal parts of the cycle. Care should also be taken when using brake fluid, as it has a strong impact on the car’s paint, and if it happens, the car body should be washed with plenty of water, especially where the oil has been spilled. .
