2. Wiper shaft. On the wipers, rods play an important role, because without this rod, it's unlikely that you can operate the windshield wipers. Of particular interest is twofold. On the handle itself wiper, wiper handles have shaped the letter "u" or a type of bolt system. Take care not to rust, as if it would rust prone to fracture. And a second spring, spring wiper weak, making the pressure on the glass is also reduced. Especially when the wipers start working.

3. The Motor and Tube. This component also need to consider, wiper motor may have been damaged, it is certainly a way of checking you all already know is not it? Simply by pressing a button to activate the wipers, and listen to what you hear from the wiper motor. If it does not sound mean problem with wiper motor. 

4. Wiper water. Do not let the water is dirty, as if the dirt can damage the wiper motors and clog the wiper nozzles, use clean water, or you can use the wiper water sold in the market.

Types Of Car Wiper

Wipers. This component is required if the weather is rainy. Serves to sweep the patter of rain on car windshield, so it does not disturb driving visibility. Many different types on the market with different brands. There are kinds of Full Frame (blade), Refill and Framless.

The factory product is usually a fullframe-type, which has an iron handle. This Wiper type is recognized more robust, so as to wipe the windshield is more optimal. the Next type is Refill Wiper Type, which is only sold rubber only. In assembly, this type of product simply adjust its frame. So you just cut, adjust the size of the old frame as the holder, rather difficult and must be careful to set it.

Latter type is a Framless Wiper,  no longer taking the iron frame, but clipped frame, which is made of flexible plastic.  This Wiper Types, has also been applied by many car manufacturers, not only Europe made ​​but also Japanese car manufacturers have also used it.

That need attention for Full frame Wiper is when the rubber has run out, will risk making the windshield scratched. different if using Framless Wiper, the material more soft, as the handle is made of plastic or synthetic rubber. So do not risk making the scratched the front glass of car, if the rubber has been run out.

From these three type of wipers, of course the choice depends on your needs and tastes, and you also have to consider the price. Another thing that is important for note, also the length of wiper, which is usually measured in inches long. Customize your car specifications.

Things Shortening Age Use of car battery

 Bismilah. First you should know that the car battery is the average age of 1.5 years, so if your battery life is less than 1.5 years there is a problem, this problem is usually in addition to external factors, the error is also derived from the treatment, would be very unfortunate if the battery life is an average of 1.5 years, turned out to be shorter than it should, given the current battery prices are very expensive.
There are several causes which make the life of the battery becomes shorter, include:
 
1. Expiry, it is not just food that expires, but also car batteries. You see a row of numbers on your car battery, for example, writing "3018C4K", number "30" on the front line is the date of manufacture, then the number "1" indicates the month of January, when the battery is made. Behind her were the number "8" which indicates the manufacture of car batteries in 2008. The letter "C" indicates shift factory worker. The number "4" behind the "C" indicates the machine. And the last letter "K" indicates the factory location. Well this year of manufacture code you can make the benchmark to buy your car battery.

2. Car battery terminals are loose, both positive and negative battery terminal should not be loose, if the car battery terminals loose, then the charging current and the supply to be imperfect. If the positive terminal is loose, then charging to be imperfect, while the current issued remain, consequently battery could come up short, and when the leave would damage the battery. so also when the negative terminal of the slack, but the equipment is to be not optimal, the battery may experience overcharging.


3. Temperature factor, do you know if the air temperature can reduce the battery service life, the hotter the temperature, the battery life of a short semakain. For one thing it's rather difficult for us avoid this, because this is a natural effect, to reduce the effects of this heat, then given a battery insulator surrounding the battery, aim to prevent engine heat mengintrusi car battery, but there are some brands of car which put the battery in the trunk, of course, this can reduce the temperature of the heat from the engine.

Hopefully this article on Things That Shorten Age Use a car battery, it can be useful and helpful for you. Thank wassalamualaikum

Tips To Drive Automatic Transmission Car, how to drive automatic transmission car.?

Bismillah. There were many conveniences on offer in the car with automatic transmission, no clutch pedal in this car makes the driver a little more relaxed in driving the car, because it does not need the clutch to shift gears, all done automatically by the transmission. Basically the use of an automatic transmission with manual transmission is almost the same. But for some people who do not understand will certainly find it difficult. Well let's review the tips for driving safely and correctly with the automatic transmission car.

First. Before you turn on the car make sure the transmission lever is in position "P" or "N", it serves to safety, to avoid the vehicle suddenly drove the car during the turn, but most of the cars today have the ignition key technologies that are not can pull the lever when the position of the transmission has not been on the Position of "P". but this step is still needed for prevention. Second. Consider the indicator lights on the car dashboard, while the position of the ignition key in position "ON", a car computer system (ECU) will perform on the devices in cars, such as ABS, Radiator, oil volume, the volume of fuel, airbag, etc. other. Wait until the indicator light goes out, if there is not one lamp goes out, there is a problem on these devices. Ok after all the lights went out then you can turn on the car.

Third. Once the machine is alive and wait for the engine temperature reached normal working temperature of about 3 minutes, so the oil circulates perfectly on the machine, before you select the gear position of the position "R" or "D", push brake pedal first, this is done for safety . After you select the gear position, brake pedal and deactivated parking brake switch. And you can run your car with the gas pedal slowly. Fourth. Over Drive (OD), the function of this button to detain or restrict the movement of the gear, if the transmission cars have a "4" to enable the acceleration,  the gear  will be limited to "3", this feature serves to get the engine power and increase the speed of the car when preceding vehicle in front or on the hill.

Fifth, when you stop for a long time as the red lights, move the position of the gear in position "N", this is to save your vehicle clutch linings. Sixth. "L" (low) or "1", this position is use when you are requiring greater engine power, such as ramp, same with the gear position "1" on a manual transmission car.
 
hopefully   tips to Drive Automatic Transmission can be useful for you, Thank you wassalamualaikum.

Tips on buying a used car

Bismilah. Buying a used car is a wise choice at this time, you can save on expenses,  and you can still get a good conditioned car , but for those of you that are the first time buying  used cars, there are some points you should consider so that you will not regret it later.

First note the condition of the engine, you can see from car exhaust fumes, see whether black or white, if the car is black smoke means the engine wasteful of fuel, in this case the car needs service light. If there is a whitish oil indicates that burned in the engine, in this particular case there is a damage to the components of the piston, ring, or seal the valve. So you have to choose a car with a clean exhaust fumes are colorless.


Brakes, do the road test and feel the car brakes, whether or not grip, also note the indicator on the dashboard, for the cars  that have Antilock Brakes  System (ABS) if there is having brake problem the indicator lights will light up, and note also the thickness of  brake linings and disc brake, if at the time the brake is pressed sounds, it may be a sign of brake lining is running out or a lot of dirt on the brake. Also note the car power steering, if it is damaged car handling  will be uncomfortable and unstable, notice is there a leak in power steering components, there are several brands of cars that have a specific problem with power steering.


Here you are required accuracy, consider the interior.  Open up the carpet to determine the condition of the floor, if a lot of rust is most likely the car has experienced flood, and watch accessories or completeness of the components inside the cabin. And for the Exterior. Look around the vehicle body, make sure no trace of collision. And also rust, rust is usually found on the sidelines of a less dense rubber body wrap, usually found in the surrounding glass. look paint carefully, usually in the car that has repainted, the paint difference betwen the old and the new paint will appear.

Hopefully this article on Tips on buying a used car, it can be useful and helpful for you. Thank you.

Know the spark plugs for cars, which use fuel injection

Do you know the ECU on the car, this one serves as the brains in the car, this is the most sensitive device in the car, such should be kept away from water and other disorders.
In this case the spark plugs could also play a role ruin your car's ECU, spark plugs have a certain frequency that can damage the ECU, so it does not interfere with the frequency required in the spark plug supressor, suppressor actually it already exists on the spark plug wires, but the numbers are small, because if a large number will disrupt the flow of voltage from the coil to the spark plug end, so the suppressor is fitted with spark plugs.
And to the characteristics of the use suppressor spark plugs marked with the letter R, which is listed on the spark plug body, the letter R denotes here if the spark plug has a resistance, and this is supposed to be used in automobile spark plugs injection.
What if we use the non-resistant spark plug on injection cars, of course the result could be fatal to the car ECU, because the frequency of the spark plug can interfere with ECU, and even damage the ECU.
Well if you buy spark plugs for your car is already using the injection, then look at the spark plug code, for example with the type of spark plugs DENSO W 16EXR-U11, so the letter R on the fourth line that indicates if the spark plugs uses supressor and suitable  used for injection cars.

Hopefully this article on the Know the spark plugs for cars, which use fuel injection can be useful for you, thank you

Know the I-DSI technology

This is the technology of the Honda factory that also prioritizes fuel efficiency, and certainly without reducing performance and engine power, the i-DSI means intelligent-Dual and Sequential Ignition, which uses 2 spark plugs per cylinder, not the same as regular machines that only use one spark plugs per cylinder.

The work of the two plugs are different in terms of ignition time, function to ensure the fuel burned in the combustion chamber, and of course the impact of this,  bring maximum torque and power, although fuel consumption is limited. And of course, other effects can reduce vehicle exhaust emissions.

Hopefully this article to know about i-DSI technology may be useful for you, Thank you ..

Know i-VTEC technology

This technology is the development of the VTEC, the development of improved performance and fuel efficiency on a Honda engine.
First introduced in the K-series engine in 2001, Intelligent-Variable Valve Timing Electronic Control still uses two camshaft profiles that have different duration and valve lift.

Differences of VTEC and i-VTEC, where the i-VTEC there are features, which the suction valve camshaft to have flexibility in determining the degree of valve opening between 25-50 °, the effect is the engine capable of producing maximum power at any engine speed, and certainly will result in efficiency fuel.

Toyota Prius a simple hybrid

Toyota Prius. This is a car that is revolutionary technology that delivers a distinct sensation of driving, the Toyota Hybrid System is intended to reduce pollution, and to give the driver the sensation of driving fun. This car is a twin-engine, gasoline and electricity, a hybrid car from Japanese manufacturer's first mass produced. Design, In terms of car design is not much different from other non-hybrid car, this car look stylish with the appearance of lines and curves sharply to the body, it shows the impression of the future. in terms of the interior clearly shows the impression of a futuristic.

Dashboard,
Much information is displayed via the MID (Multi Information Display) that increasingly pamper you, from this you can find used cars more energy, whether electricity or gasoline, there is historical data of fuel consumption, the rest is almost beside the other car.
Right in the center console there is a button to choose a character from the Power Eco driving, and EV, to be sure both of these options will give a different driving experience. O yes this car is also already apply button engine start / stop, so you do not need to turn the ignition again like a conventional car, you simply step on the brake and press the button, if it says Ready on the speedometer display car can be driven.

Security Features. Indeed, driving the Prius is a bit different from the usual car, this should come from the car engine system, because when the car is turned on an electric power source of which will run, so it will not sound the engine on this car, well if you hit the gas directly because it thinks the machine has not been alive, then the car will go straight, so TOYOTA requires that the brakes when the car is first turned on to avoid the possibility of an accident. So if you do not hit the brakes the car would not be alive, and if the car is stopped, the command will appear to be pressing the P (parking).
 
Machine. These cars use twin engines, gasoline engines and electric engines, gasoline engines Prius uses a machine that is used Toyota Altis (1.800 cc VVT i) the electric motor is the Toyota Synergy Drive. For the electric motor uses a series-parallel system, with the Prius gasoline engine system into two functions, to charge the electric motor (a generator) or simply as the driving wheel, or both, to the drive wheels and also as a generator simultaneously. So how it works, if the car is in the low-speed electric motor will work, while the gasoline engine off, and vice versa when the car began to enter the high-speed gasoline engine starts off, replace the electric motors. Obviously this technology is suitable to conserve fuel, especially in traffic jams.

Eco Drive Mode. This mode is provided for those of you who want to drive it gently, with this mode will save more fuel. Power Drive Mode, And when you pressed the power button drive mode, the Prius will accelerate spontaneous, similar to the Altis and even the speed of 145 km / h easily achieved, EV Drive Mode. If you activate this mode only the electric motor is active. Sound of the car to be quiet while the car drove normal, but in this mode we cannot use it long, because the battery will run out quickly.

Handling
. in terms of handling, the Toyota Prius is not very privileges, it looks like this car is not for you who like speeding on the road, and this car might just put it in terms of hybrid. Fuel Consumption, this car can drive as far as 21 km per liter for fuel for a constant speed, but if you are stuck in traffic, the car is actually more efficient, can travel 29 km / liter of fuel.

Hopefully this article on the Toyota Prius can be useful for you, Thank you.

know VTEC technology

Bismilah. VTEC. This engine technology is favored by Japanese car manufacturers 'HONDA'. this technology is a major effect on performance and fuel efficiency. VTEC (Variable Valve Timing And Electronic Control) Which Is a valvetrain system (Suction Valve Performance). HONDA created to improve volumetric Efficiency, Using Two Combustion Room. VTEC Camshaft Profiles, that Are Electronic Arranged According To The Conditions And Needs Of Cars. VTEC Technology Was First Invented By Honda R & D Engineer 'Ikuo Kajitani,' Before Refined Into VTEC, Ikuo Named REV (Revolution Modulated Valve Control), Now All Brands Of Honda Cars Use This Technology.

This Honda Innovation generally applied to valve 16 engine With Two Camshaft, Intake And Each Exhaust. VTEC only Used in inlet valve, the Control Efficiency is more powerful, engine efficiency Controls on the intake valve is more powerful, because the removal process does not require a variable valve opening. As more smoothly gas exhaust, the engine will be more lighter (responsive)

The workings of this VTEC technology is, the second intake valve does not always move together. For example, at low speed there is only one valve is open, the opening would be relatively small, because the punch valve camshaft profile is suitable for low speed.  This condition is considered appropriate at low RPM, because do not need a lot of air supply. Machine become so economical, efficient environmentally friendly too. As engine speed increased, the need for the air supply is also increasing. Directly served by opening the second valve. Opening become larger because the camshaft profile has a higher degree of opening character.

Not only that, come the first valve to open wide. Because there is a pin, which connects the two valve rocker arm. When high speed, the computer will open the lines of oil in the rocker arm and push the pin. automatically the pin Will lock the second rocker arm. Because the second rocker arm is driven by the higher duration camshaft, the first valve movement will follow.   Do You Have A Honda?.

I Hope This Article On VTEC Technology Can Be Useful For You, Thank You wassalamualaikum..
