With the control of the epidemic, various industries have also ushered in a wave of resumption. 4S stores everywhere also gradually began to resume work, and the local SAIC-Volkswagen 4S store also officially resumed work on March 1. The last maintenance was on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, with a mileage of 15959 kilometers, and now the mileage is 21040 kilometers, exactly half a year, so I decided to do some maintenance and disinfection of the car before I returned to work. By communicating with the in-store service consultant, we know that only 10 cars are maintained every day, and we have to make an appointment in advance. Combined with their own actual situation, decided to carry out maintenance on March 10, so that the maintenance will be more scheduled with the service consultant three days in advance. In the afternoon and morning of the first day, the service consultant confirmed the arrival time twice through Wechat to ensure that the maintenance was carried out smoothly.
The shop goes to work at nine o’clock in the morning, so I went there early in the morning to avoid waiting in line. With the release of the seal, there are more and more cars on the road. It’s a 10-minute drive. When entering the gate of the 4S store, a security guard wearing protective clothing takes the temperature of the customers who come to the store and supervises them to scan the code to enter the store (Taian has to scan “Taiantong” to register the travel track when going in and out of public places.), and then you can enter the store.

Enter the store waiting area and wait for the appearance inspection.

After arriving at the store, the service consultant is already waiting, everyone is wearing masks, the protection is very good. I had a simple communication with the service consultant and gave feedback on some of the faults found in the car. After the end of the external inspection, we began to choose the content of this maintenance.

Enter the workshop and place a three-piece dustproof set, and the maintenance personnel all wear masks.

Now with a mileage of 21000 kilometers, in addition to conventional oil and oil filter elements, air filter elements and air-conditioning filter elements also need to be replaced, but these two filter elements were replaced by themselves a few years ago, so there is no need to change them this time. Other projects are tire transposition and free in-car disinfection. Determine the maintenance content, the next step is to place an order, pick up the material, and start construction!

There are not too many customers who come early and enter the exclusive station.

Without much to say, start construction.

The maintenance staff first removed the air filter element and the air conditioning filter element to clean, the filter element is newly replaced, so there are not too many photos here.

Ready for the next item, remove the engine guard first.

I thought I had to maintain it first, but I found that the repairman first made a four-wheel transposition and began to dismantle the tire.

The two rear wheels have been removed and replaced with the front wheel.

The rear brake disc is very rusty, but it is also a normal phenomenon.

Start to remove the front wheel, at this time the maintenance master to release the old oil, the rational use of time can save a lot of time.

The tires are all dynamically balanced.

This tire has been mended and a balance block has been added

After replacing the oil filter element and drain bolts, the master began to install the wheels.

The master brought the maintenance materials. Like last time, 288 semi-synthetic engine oil, Castrol preferred engine oil

Add the oil, the whole barrel is added, finish and check the oil dipstick. By this time, the maintenance of the car has been completed. The next step is to sterilize the car.

Add the disinfectant to the spray can and spray it into the car through air pressure.

Copilot disinfection

Back row disinfection

Finally, the main driver disinfection, through atomization, the coverage is very thorough, the whole disinfection process is about 5 minutes.

After the disinfection in the car, only the inspection after maintenance is left and the tire pressure is replenished. All the projects are over here.

The maintenance items include: replacement of oil and oil filter element, four-wheel transposition, disinfection in the car, material cost: 288 yuan, 44.45 yuan, 14.72 yuan, 6yuan, 353.17 yuan, man-hour fee: 120,72yuan, 198,390 yuan, total: 743.17 yuan. In the actual settlement: the disinfection man-hour fee is deducted and deducted, the electronic maintenance voucher is deducted for 88 yuan, and the rest is deducted through the integral deduction of Volkswagen, deducting 4572 points. Finally, all the maintenance expenses are deducted, and the actual payment is 0 yuan in cash.

I couldn’t wash the car during the epidemic, so I was ready to go home after the settlement. When you get to the import and export, you still have to scan the code to register.

Now you have to scan the code everywhere and record the travel track, which is very convenient
On the way back, I obviously felt that the car was much lighter and the engine noise seemed to be a little less. Everything has been packed up and ready to go back to work.
