Car Care Tip #13

With petrol prices through the roof, everyone wants to chuck their petrol car and get a diesel. But more often than not, it is how you drive, rather than what you drive, which determines how much mileage you get from car. Here are a few tips to help you get good mileage

A revvy business

Getting to good grips with precise throttle control goes hand in hand with staying in the correct gear. Think of the throttle like a fan regulator as opposed to an on-off switch. The more precisely you can modulate your throttle inputs while driving, the better the engine will stay in its optimal torque zone, and the more you keep the engine rpm in its optimal torque zone, the better the car will maintain momentum, giving improved mileage overall.

Straight torque

One important thing to do to get better mileage from your car is to use the engine’s torque properly. Being in the right gear is critical for this. Don’t be in a hurry to up-shift as you get moving. At the same time, staying in a lower gear at higher speed is equally detrimental for getting good mileage. One needs to develop a feel for where the engine’s torque starts kicking in, and once this is done, it is very easy to keep the car moving with very little effort from the engine.

The quintessential question that most of us here in India ask when enquiring about cars is “How much is the mileage?” While a various cars give varying mileage, there are a few things you can do help improve how much mileage your car gives. First and foremost is to cut down on idle time. Every second that the engine is off, whether you’re waiting outside a shop, or at a traffic light, you’re saving fuel. Modern start-stop systems do the same automatically, so there is no reason that you shouldn’t put in that little extra effort every time your car stops moving. The benefit is only yours to be had...

Car Care Tip #10

Driving on crowded city roads might be slow, but is still rather dangerous and let's not forget, rather tedious. I will share few tips to make driving through city traffic a little safer and easier daily

Finally!
Driving in crowded city traffic is something that a lot of us do extremely regularly, but also something that most take for granted quite easily. Just because the speeds are slower than when on the highways, it doesn’t make city driving any less dangerous. The key point to remember while driving in the city is ‘Situational Awareness’. WIth dozens of vehicles moving in close proximity to your car, it is critical to build a mental picture of exactly what’s around you at all times, while keeping your attention on what’s ahead. Use your mirrors liberally and turn your head to see into blind spots, and driving in peak traffic will be far less intimidating than it otherwise would be.

Chill out, take a brake

Slowing down or stopping in time is one of the toughest things to do when in bumper-to-bumper traffic. If you keep control you won’t have to panic-brake in the first place. Regardless, don’t be too jumpy with your brake pedal - always keep your braking smooth so you don’t catch following vehicles by surprise and avoid being rear-ended. Practice your braking on empty roads so when the time comes, you’ll know what to do in traffic!

The right leverage

As is the case with general driving, it is extremely important to keep your car in the right gear at all times, especially in the city. Match your gears to the speed you’re maintaining so that you’re not revving too hard nor are dangerously close to stalling. As far as possible, do not ride the clutch because this will only wear out your clutch plates much faster and as a result will also hamper your fuel efficiency.

A sleight of hand

Using your turn indicators is not just a good idea, but is absolutely necessary not just when you’re turning into or out of bylanes but also when you’re changing lanes. Sometimes though, turn indicators just aren’t enough to warn everyone around you that your car is now going to change direction, especially for motorists who may be following too close behind you. Make sure you stick your hand out the window at least on right turns in such situations!

Easy, driver

City traffic is a rather frustrating factor while driving through the urban landscape. While it might be tempting to floor it at every opportunity to make your journey through the hustle-bustle that much shorter, the faster you drive, the harder you need to brake when the traffic builds up. This not only makes for excessive wear and tear on you car components, it also adds a lot of mental strain. Keep a cool head, take it easy and driving automatically becomes better.

Car Care Tip #5
How should I dry the car when I'm done?


Don't... let the car air dry, and don't expect a drive around the block to do an effective job. Either will leave watermarks, which in areas with hard water are the minerals left after evaporation. In addition, don't use an abrasive towel or other material that can leave hairline scratches in the paint.

Do... use a chamois (natural or synthetic) or soft terry towels. If you choose towels, you may need several. It's best to blot the water up instead of dragging the towel or chamois over the paint. The drying process can be speeded up by using a soft squeegee to remove most of the water on the body, but be sure the rubber is pliable and that it doesn't pick up bits of dirt that can cause scratches.

Car Care Tip #4
Are there any general guidelines I should follow when washing a car?

Don't... wash your car when the body is hot, such as immediately after driving it or after it has been parked in direct sunlight for awhile. Heat speeds the drying of soap and water, making washing more difficult and increasing the chances that spots or deposits will form.

Don't move the sponge in circles. This can create light, but noticeable scratches called swirl marks. Instead, move the sponge lengthwise across the hood and other body panels. And don't continue using a sponge that's dropped on the ground without thoroughly rinsing it out. The sponge can pick up dirt particles that can scratch the paint.

Do... rinse all surfaces thoroughly with water before you begin washing to remove loose dirt and debris that could cause scratching. Once you begin, concentrate on one section at a time, washing and rinsing each area completely before moving on to the next one. This ensures that you have plenty of time to rinse before the soap dries. Start at the top, and then work your way around the car.

Work the car-wash solution into a lather with plenty of suds that provide lots of lubrication on the paint surface. And rinse the sponge often. Using a separate bucket to rinse the sponge keeps dirt from getting mixed into the sudsy wash water.

When rinsing, use a hose without a nozzle and let the water flow over the car from top to bottom. This creates a sheeting action that helps minimize pooling of water.

Car Care Tip #3
What kind of products should I use to wash my car?

Don't... use household cleaning agents like hand soap, dishwashing detergent, or glass cleaner on the paint. These aren't formulated for use on a car's paint and may strip off the protective wax.

Do... use a dedicated car-wash product, which is milder and specifically designed for use on automotive paint. Apply the suds with a large, soft natural sponge or a lamb's-wool mitt.

Grease, rubber, and road-tar deposits picked up from the road often accumulate around the wheel wells and along the lower edge of the body. These can be stubborn to remove and may require a stronger product, such as a bug-and-tar remover. Use a soft, nonabrasive cloth to remove these deposits, as they can quickly blacken your sponge.

Use a separate sponge to clean the wheels and tires, which may be coated with sand, brake dust, and other debris that could mar the car's finish. Mild soap and water may work here; if not, a dedicated wheel cleaner may be required. Be sure the cleaner is compatible with the type of finish (paint, clear-coat, chrome, etc.) used on the wheels. A strong formula intended for mag wheels, for instance, can damage the clear coat that's used on the wheels that come on today's cars. To be on the safe side, choose a cleaner that's labeled as safe for use on all wheels.
