[A different way home] When your car comes to the store for testing, you can use the car safely during the holidays

September 12, 2024

Motorists who have read my post all know that they were a little confused about the oil consumption when conducting daily inspections of vehicles. They communicated with the after-sales service consultant of the 4s store on the phone and told me to pay more attention on weekdays. Once the oil light comes on, I must never move cars again. I suggest I go to the store for inspection when I have time. Coincidentally, the manufacturer has a free winter inspection and feedback activity. Although he also took a rough look at the vehicle before winter, after all, there is no professional teacher in the store. He took advantage of his free time at the end of the year to go to the store for a test, and he felt at ease using the car during the Spring Festival holiday.

The co-driver takes photos to ensure driving safety.

Park the vehicle in the waiting area as usual.

The service consultant checks the appearance of the vehicle, registers the mileage traveled, communicates with the inspection items and bills it.

By the time I completed the procedures for entering the workshop, the maintenance master had already driven the vehicle into the workshop. After the light inspection was completed, the oil problem also helped me explain. Although it reached the lower limit, it was estimated that only about half a liter was consumed. It was still far from the oil alarm. The fully synthetic oil could normally drive to 10,000 kilometers without problem.

Inspect the battery.

Told me that the battery is a little low. Nowadays, there are many electric equipment in cars. Especially the low temperature in winter has a great impact on battery charging and discharging. Usually, we should be careful not to park the car for a long time.

New drivers may not know about this device, but it is used to check the freezing point of glass water. I previously added a bottle of glass water with a temperature of-30 degrees that was exchanged for points at the gas station. It only reached-10 degrees with this device. Fortunately, my water storage tank was not frozen. New motorists should also be reminded here to be cautious when using small brands of cars.

Check the tire pressure and replenish air.

Tire inspection.

Chassis inspection.

Plug the VAS Bluetooth module into the OBD interface of the vehicle? Diagnostics the ECU.

Clear the false fault codes in the driving computer. At this point, there are basically no projects left. You can go back to the reception room and wait for the settlement procedures.

Since it was a winter inspection activity given back by the manufacturer, there were no fee-based projects, and there was no need to go through finance anymore. The service consultant had completed everything.

The entire vehicle is tested normally, and the low battery power has no impact on the use of the vehicle, so there is no need to carry out special charging operations.
