Let me tell you why try to go to 4S or (regular store) for maintenance (Xiao Ba’s first car guarantee note 12)

Supplementary instructions (put at the top)

Supplementary note: in view of the content of many friends’ messages and found some ambiguity, I need to reiterate the following points:

First, I have never said that only 4S stores can do good maintenance. I just said that their craftsmanship from hardware to software to masters is relatively standardized and pass, so there are a few words of regular (maintenance) store in my title, but because the number of words in the title is omitted, I have not said that the masters in other stores are not good or the process is not good. This is just some advice for car rookies. I wrote this post because I want many friends who have asked me to know the process of first insurance or minor maintenance.
Second, I have bought a car for three years and nine times for small maintenance, so don’t say that people have a lot of stupid money. My friend also runs a repair shop. After three years, if the maintenance price is really much higher than the outside 4S, then I certainly will not maintain it in 4S. I also write this thing to let you know which details need to be paid attention to, so sprinklers please spray after reading things.
Third, from the beginning of my post to the present, I have not written so much for any fame and fortune, purely out of interest and wanting to use my car experience. Writing something can help friends in need, so I only write practical information, not a word of nonsense, but, you can not read or read but don’t spray feces. I have changed a lot of my habit of using words and put forward opinions well. I accepted it modestly, and later I became a lot of friends, but I barked as soon as I came up. To be honest, I was really not in the mood to listen.
As a native of Sichuan, I also think that I have never been a pussy, but I am really not in the mood to compete with the sprinklers who can’t control the position of their chrysanthemums and throats, so please respect yourself. I think in this forum, because writing should make more friends than keyboard warriors.
Again, I write only because of hobbies, and it doesn’t get in the way of anyone. If there is, please tell me, if not, please respect yourself, swallow the dung and make way for friends who need it.
Thank you. (the above is purely my own remarks. If something is wrong, do whatever you like.)

Write at the front

In fact, this post should have been posted after the 7999-kilometer car post, but after the Spring Festival, , I stole a moment of laziness, because there are often brothers in the group of car friends who ask: what are the first insurance projects, what should we pay attention to, and so on.
So when I was first insured, I recorded the whole process. Today, I will mainly explain and explain a few issues (see the title).
(thanks to the maintenance technician of the fourth son, the handsome guy let me jump up and down to take pictures and answer my questions. I’ll take you to pick up a girl when I’m free.)

1. How many kilometers is appropriate for first insurance

The vehicle manual says that there will be a small maintenance at 10000 kilometers, and we will stay and follow the instructions, but I chose the first insurance when the car is 8000 kilometers. First, it is because the Spring Festival is coming, and God knows how many kilometers to run. Second, my rotten chrysanthemum sales suggested that I should make the first insurance earlier. Third, when I bought a car, I gave it three years and nine times. I need to play with a duck! After running for almost a year, it’s only 8000 kilometers. I, Nima.
What needs to be pointed out here is that the oil also has the best use time. It doesn’t mean that the newer the oil is, the better it is. It’s like frying eggs. If the temperature of the oil is too low, pour it into a piece of green, and the temperature of the oil is too high. Pour it into the fire directly. I saw that there were buddies in the group who maintained it for 5000 kilometers. You released the oil as soon as it reached its best condition.
And I also heard a saying, but I don’t know if it can be believed, ha, that is, before the first insurance, go to high speed for a few times, and then let the engine give full play to its effect, polishing some steel slag debris and so on inside the new engine, and then discharge it along with the oil filter element at the time of the first insurance.

2. What are the items of the first insurance?

This question I once asked me cheerfully that bad chrysanthemum sales, as a result, people do not look up, there is a toothbrush, change the engine filter, gone. What else do you want, we’ll give you a square dance? Nima… Then secretly told me, do not be fooled by the little sister in the maintenance reception desk, what inspection this is bullshit, unless you are interested in her, otherwise do not do. Uh… )
Well, it’s true that I kept the whole journey, and I only changed the engine filter, but
In addition to the hardware replacement, throughout the process, I found out why repair and maintenance should be done in the fourth son, or in a super regular store, because there are many details in the inspection project and process, which I am afraid is unmatched by other stores.

3. Why should the maintenance be done in the fourth son, or in a super formal store (maintenance process)

I’ll talk about the process directly, and then emphasize some details. Look at the picture for details.
1. Get on the landing gear
I have said this thing many times, the new five-series can only be lifted by the kind of landing gear with four discs, because there are four piles specially used for lifts under the car. My maintenance brother groped on the ground for a long time to make the disc of the landing gear fit perfectly with the piles of my car (many other stores do not have this kind of lift), and if you use two big lifts It is possible to top up the plastic spoiler under the car, while pushing up the tire directly prevents you from checking the tire.
2. Check the chassis and tires
I believe other stores will also do this. My little brother examined it very carefully. I looked there with a flashlight, and I followed. After all, teacher Wang Yan mentioned the problem of hub cracking in the five series in the comparative evaluation. I also followed and looked at it. My whole chassis is very clean. I didn’t lose the wipe and hang it (I was driving more carefully (because I was poor), and then I used a screwdriver to help me get the pebbles when I checked the wheel, but for me with obsessive-compulsive disorder, I really wanted to yell and let me do it! Give me a tire pressure after taking it out, Gaga, the first 2.4 and the second 2.5 is awesome.
3. Ready to put engine oil
Little brother skillfully opened the lid of Tianling that I knew. Then cover the front of the car with a cloth (there is a magnet on the cloth, suck directly on it), and then start to remove the lid of my engine (thick soundproof cotton), but it’s a bit of a mess inside. Then start checking all kinds of things (I feel like I’m looking for a place to loosen or something), and then unscrew the position of the oil filter (it’s on it. I thought all the cars would be under the engine. No, no, no. ), then came to the bottom of the car with a trolley (oil collection cart) and pointed it at the belly button, and then the small hand went back in the hole and pulled out a screw. Then I saw the cola-colored oil gushing out into the funnel of the collection cart.
4. Add oil and change oil filter element
After waiting for a long time, when the old oil is almost clean, then screw on, put the car down, and then take out the new oil, brand and model below the picture, I will not say, mainly the quantity, 5.25L! So what I took out was six bottles, and then the last bottle was only one-fourth, and the oil filter element was brown after it was taken out. After changing it for a new one, the young master also applied Vaseline lubrication to the glue strip at the joint. This is a like. I looked at the new oil and found that it was light brown and had been poured for a long time. Compared with the old oil, it showed that it was almost enough to change it for 10,000 kilometers.
5. All kinds of inspection
After tightening the new oil filter element, the young master also checked the tightness with the spray and then checked the excuses of all kinds of wire harnesses, not the ones that were removed at the beginning, but everything in the cabin. (I guess it has something to do with me taking pictures there all the time. The little master is very diligent, .)
Then I specifically asked whether the antifreeze was missing, and he looked at it and said that it was no less if he didn’t call the police, but I could add some to you, and then I took the water and put it into it. Well, I want to say, antifreeze is water. And then add water from the radiator. Then I filled up my glass water (in fact, I want to say that the 3m glass water I have been adding is not tap water, my brother. )
After finishing this set, the little master wiped the cabin with a wet towel. Although my cabin was very clean, I felt very cool, , and then used an air gun to rush the details for a long time. After closing the cover, use the torque wrench again! 1, see clearly, it is a wrench with torsion, checked all the screws of the four wheels, it must be mentioned here that many people’s anti-theft screws can not be unscrewed in the end, and can only be broken with an impact drill. The biggest reason to take it off is to be tightened with a wrench. So a torque wrench is necessary.
When you are done, thank the little master, then wash the car, and then Meimei leave.

Said that at the end,

I wrote so much just to let everyone know the process of the first insurance. Of course, I didn’t mention any internal inspections, but I just asked you if you had any problems. There was nothing wrong with my car, so the focus was on the outside of the car or on the hardware.
I have always stressed that maintenance should be done at the fourth son or a regular store, for example, special landing gear, including applying Vaseline to oil filter strips, checking tightness, and then torque wrenches.
Some things are not that others do not have, but in some places, people are already there as operating procedures, and you do not say that people will follow that process. And this also includes the matching of hardware and software, as well as the quality of technician training, including some small details, which are unmatched by many small modification points and maintenance shops.
By the way, when I checked the chassis, I also found some loose interfaces (the picture below), including that if the air filter element is removed, the air filter element must be removed, and if the air filter element is removed, the aluminum alloy reinforcement rod in the engine compartment must be removed. this shows that there is still room for improvement in the 5 series as a whole, which will be explained in the following picture.
That’s it. Happy New year, everyone. Don’t spray if you don’t like it.

The picture and text explanation that you most like to see in the news (Xiao Xian, I want to hurt your ass and return the labor panda)

8000 kilometers, first guarantee to walk a wave.

The fourth son came to the cold early in the morning. How old is the slope?

When I enter the door, I see a five-series of this color ~ ~ it’s pretty good ~ ~

Take a closer look, it’s really pretty.

And look at my big white ass ~ not bad ~ ~

I really seldom see what my car looks like when the ass is open, and I’ve hardly been there in the back row.

Come on, big white, get into position.

Note that this is the disc of the crane I mentioned above.

The cloth built by the master to prevent scratches or something.

Take the engine lid off.

It’s a mess like a pot of stew.

The master said that these six things are sockets for the computer version. I thought they were from the engine, but I found that there were six, but I only had four cylinders, so don’t force me.

Look, there are only six things.

The oil filling port located above the engine

Get ready to go up ~

Give me another one sideways.

The technical boy has been groping there for a long time, just to focus on the disc.

All right, it’s up.

Little brother, give me an abortion first.

Keep fighting.

When I met a brother next to him, he took down the bench because he was looking for a strange noise. Guess what car.

The little brother began to twist the lid of the machine oil filter.

It’s in this position.

Just that round thing ~

All right, it’s still the first move in the belly button. ~

There is a plastic lid on the outside, and this screw is inside.

See, this is the clearest picture I took of the crane pile and the crane disc in contact. This explains everything. This stake is shallower than the air spoiler. If a lift like a large board is used, the spoiler will be useless. Moreover, the little brother has been groping underneath for a long time, in order to completely align it with all angles of this stake.

Don’t look at me like this ~~

Pull back!!! Walking around ~~~

I peed…

I really pissed… The urine is a little dark. I guess it’s because I ate too much coffee… It was really turbulent when I was young

This photo makes me swallow my saliva. It looks like coke ~ Continue to surge ~~~

It’s almost over ~~~

Oh, I can only drop, I really don’t know how expensive it is when I am young. I’m old enough to cry when I look at the sky ~~ haha

While Dabai was peeing, I looked down at the chassis. It was so clean. It had been driving for almost a year.

Here, I found this joint, which is the valve on the right. It should be the valve’s opening and closing sensor.

But… This… Just… That’s a little too much… BMW!!! What the hell is this?! It looks scary to have such an interface on the chassis of the car!!!

Then you can directly see the top below the engine compartment, which means that the lower engine guard does not fully cover the lower part of the engine, so it is better to drive slowly on the bad road, otherwise it will be dirty.

One liter per bottle ~

Zoom in and see ~

6 bottles ~~~

Used oil filter element, coffee color drops ~

The new one is big yellow ~~

Take a number to make it easier to buy and exchange it when you take care of yourself in the future ~

Before the gasoline filter element was inserted in ~

Take a photo of the back to make it easier to buy and exchange in the future ~

This is the adhesive tape that my brother applied with Vaseline ~

Vaseline in one hand

Spray foam to see if it is airtight ~

Then use an air gun to rush into the cabin ~

Start adding oil ~~

Drink ~~ drink with all your life ~~~

Gulp gulp ~~

My brother’s hands are still very steady ~~

After finishing work ~~~

Start checking the antifreeze ~

Screw me all your life ~~~~ Haha

There are indeed two yellow covers inside.

Continue to use an air gun to flush the dust in the cabin ~

Continue to add ~~~

My son, my hands are really steady. I don’t think I can hit many games… (Xiaoxian, you’re so damn it, you’ve hit too many planes!!)

It said there are two filler nozzles, but I forget what this one is

Look, this is the position of the air filter element. The white reinforcing rod on it must be removed during major maintenance before this can be replaced ~

Wipe it clean, this should be great ~

Put the lid on, this is like a car that’s been driving for a year?

Use a torque wrench to strengthen all tire screws ~

Let me zoom in and see ~

Gaga, I have never been so handsome. This angle is really the most handsome, there is no one ~~

My big white is washing the car ~~

Cool ~, it is said that the increase will affect the engine power ~~ This should be just right ~ Let’s finish the work ~
