Reading a Tire specification

Specification tires are often forgotten. In fact, the numbers found on the tire wall is veryinformative and payers are known.

We can know the tire size, type tubles or not, the rate of speed, maximum carrying capacity and more tire information that we use. Below will explain the meaning of the rownumber.

Take for example P215/65R15 89H. Let's look at one-one:

Q: For passenger vehicles (passenger)

215: This symbol indicates the tire width is measured from one wall to another. That is, itdetermines the number of millimeters of tread. The bigger the number, the tire treads willlook more broadly.

65: The ratio of height to width. The larger the numbers side of the tire will look higher. The smaller the number the lower the tire wall.

R: Construction of tires. The symbol R represents radial tire type.

15: The diameter of the tire, or better known by the ring 15. Usually correspond to the diameter (ring) wheels.

89: Index Power. Each figure has a different level haulage. It is also associated with the maximum wind pressure of n measured in units of PSI (pounds per square inch) and Kpa(kilopascals).

H: The rate of speed. Each letter has a different speed levels. The rate at which it covers:
- Q a maximum speed of 158 km / h
- S a maximum speed of 179 km / h
- T a maximum speed of 188 km / h
- U a maximum speed of 198 km / h
- H a maximum speed of 208 km / h
- V maximum speed of 240 km / h
- Z maximum speed above 240 km / h

As the rain drove Glass Dew

FOR car with air conditioning (AC), the dew which often interfere with vision glass insidewere easily expelled. Stay operate only air-conditioning systems, and all the fog was going to disappear instantly. However, when the air conditioning system was not working normally, is a bit troublesome. Rubbing the inside of the glass with a chamois cloth is wet,it can help to dispel the view that the barrier. However, it is also a bit troublesome as well.


But, you do not need to upset first. Apparently, hair shampoo can be used also to rebukemoisture barrier this view. How, apply a little shampoo on the inside of your windshieldevenly, but a thin layer only. This method is guaranteed to make clear the windshield ofyour car and do not need to wipe over and over again. Because of that, there's nothing wrong if you always set up a small bottle of shampoo in any part of the car when driving inrainy season or out of town.


Else if unwilling operated windshield wiper. For this business, you can take advantage oftobacco cigarettes or other tobacco types. How, apply this tobacco on the outside of the windshield. It is rather strange, but kemujarabannya been tested. Try it!

2.Not too coldWhen the cars get older and less cold air conditioning, it was time for the service. Replacement of refrigerant plus the examination of all channels to cover the leak if there is a solution to this problem.
3. Turned on throughout the year betterAir conditioning system that continues throughout the year instead of living healthier. AC path continues to encourage refrigerant circulates. Refrigerant-containing lubricant used to lubricate the entire system and prevent leaks. The most important lubricant to lubricate and maintain the refrigerant compressor. Also keep the seals and pipes remain moist, so awake from the risk of cracking due to dry which can lead to leakage of the system.
4. Strange sounds that should not be ignoredIf you experience strange noises, unusual from the air conditioner did not previously exist, it is advisable to go as soon as possible air-conditioning repair shop for inspection. There are voices that are the initial symptoms / indications of damage to the compressor. Compressors are the most expensive part of the AC system. When the bearings in the compressor broke / broken, meaning the other components were contaminated with metal particles. The system should be drained plus replacement compressor and other components. It's very expensive.
5. Drops of water under the car.If there are drops of water under the car, do not be surprised because it was perfectly normal. It comes from the evaporator. Evaporator having an evaporator drain pipe that allows water out of the car. Sometimes the pipes are clogged or broken so that the evaporator can not drain water out of the car and even into the cabin. This problem can be overcome by cheap.
6. Periodic servicing although it does not look troubled.Like other systems in the car, the AC also needs to check periodically. Compressors need lubricants, filters need to be cleaned of dirt and moisture. When the filter is dirty, disturbed system performance and can make the system does not work at all.

Regular maintenance of your car air conditioning system will keep the compressor is working perfectly as well as other vital components. Regular maintenance is the long-term investment while ensuring you remain comfortable on the day of blistering.

Caring FWD axle Wheel Drive Cars

Plurality sedan type passenger car, always use a front-wheel drive system. Understandably, this method does have many advantages over conventional methods that use rear-wheel drive. Besides being able to reduce the effects of oversteering, FWD cars that use the system is also much simpler construction. You see, transmission and gardannya can be made into a unity so great savings.

Just persoalnya, shaft or front-wheel drive as this is often problematic. Because the center pedestal and wheel rotation is indeed a complicated rada construction in order to anticipate the rise and fall motion must be designed to allow the front wheels can be deflected. That is why, the front axle is always equipped with a special connection commonly known as a kind velocity joint or joint cross the plural is used in rear-wheel drive car.

At the connection point is often problematic. For example, a rubber boot axle broke. If, allowed to continue, then the dust, sand, or other debris will enter into a ball of steel connections is quite expensive. Of course, the steel ball is guaranteed not broken the tempo for a while. Because of that, immediately replace the rubber axle boot was torn know if it is leaking.

Check your tires regularlyAlways check your tires before driving. Check the following points carefully: Keep tire air pressure. The correct air pressure is set by the vehicle manufacturer and can be found behind the door, the box beside the door, glove box or fuel door. Also written in the manuals. Number printed on the side of the tire is not the recommended air pressure for your tires ... it is the ability to receive the maximum load the tire air pressure.You have to check pressures at least once a month. Also check the tread depth. A good tread will protect you from slipping / slip and aquaplaning / inundation / flooding.
Keep your distance with the vehicle in frontNote the distance the vehicle, because you need to be located behind the car in front of you with longer distances. Keep a distance of at least two cars in front of you so that there is a considerable distance.
How to avoid and control aquaplaning - the flood?When you go through a puddle of water try to follow the existing driveway in front of you. If you are stuck in aquaplaning, do not brake suddenly. This can cause you to slip. Takanan Reduce your gas until the car slows and you can feel your car touches the ground again. If you need to hit the brakes, do it gently with a pumping motion. If your car has ABS, brake was as usual, your car's computer will do mimic the action, when needed.

Avoid large treesIf you are driving in heavy rain accompanied by strong winds, so always be alert when walking among huge trees. Do not stop and calm below, because many large trees that old age and fragile collapse if blown by strong winds.

CLEVER The Urban Vehicle

CLEVER, is an acronym for Compact Low Emission Vehicle for Urban Transport or a compact vehicle forurban areas with low exhaust emissions. CLEVER is a concept vehicle intended to transport future that is environmentally friendly.
CLEVER vehicle microcar is a blend of safe and comfortable with maneuvering agility of a motorcycle. The vehicle is powered by natural gas-fueled engines.

Machine used was a modified 230cc BMW engine by Institut Français du Pétrole (IFP) so it can use naturalgas as fuel. Machines that are environmentally responsible produce power 17 hp (12.5 kW) and maximum torque 15.5 Nm at 6300 rpm.
The speed of these vehicles are able to produce around 50 mph with fuel consumption is estimated at only2.4 liters/100 km. With two etrsedia fuel tank, this vehicle can reach a maximum distance of about 93 miles(150 km).
