As for the sunroof, if it is not paid attention to and maintained during the rainy season, it is very likely to be damaged. Here are some tips for you. Maintenance novices should quickly learn the common knowledge of vehicle sunroof maintenance in the rainy season before the rainy season officially comes!
1. Clean the slide rails of the skylight regularly to prevent abnormal noise.
When the sunroof of your car has been baptized by rain for a long time, it will not become clean. On the contrary, the rain is actually very dirty, mixed with sand, impurities, dust, dust and other objects, plus rain Leaves, bird droppings, etc. in the air will also be brought to the car. Therefore, after the sunroof is exposed to rain for a long time, these impurities will enter the gaps in the slide rails. If the car owners do not deal with and clean them in time after the rain, these impurities will If impurities are mixed in the slide rails for a long time, when the car owner wants to open the sunroof after the weather clears, he will feel that there is a layer of obstruction. If he opens the sunroof forcibly, he will obviously hear a squeaking sound. This will only Will accelerate the wear of the skylight.
In addition, we would like to remind all car owners that rainwater contains a lot of acidic substances. Everyone knows that rainwater cannot be replaced as "car wash water". If rainwater penetrates into the skylight gap for a long time without cleaning it, it will also cause damage to it. Due to corrosion, the rubber parts contained in the skylight will be damaged, so do not forget to clean the skylight after rain.
2. Clean and replace the skylight sealing ring regularly to prevent water leakage.
First of all, car owners must remember to close the sunroof tightly before rainy days come. Many car owners tend to ignore the sunroof. Sometimes they may not close the sunroof tightly at all. This will not only cause rainwater to leak into the car, causing the seats to get wet. Moreover, the drainage channel of the skylight will also be mixed with a lot of debris.
When the car owner does not close the sunroof for a long time, the impact of long-term rain will "lift up" the sealing ring on the sunroof. The sealing ring is only made of ordinary rubber, and its purpose is to ensure that the sunroof is completely It closes tightly without leaking, which is the same as the rubber strip on the lid of the water bottle in our daily life.
So if the rubber strips of the skylight are blown up, the skylight will definitely not be able to be closed tightly. Therefore, car owners should pay attention to the maintenance of the rubber sealing ring when cleaning the sunroof. Do not point the water gun directly at the cleaning. If the pressure is too great, the sealing ring will be damaged. Once the seal is damaged, replace it as soon as possible.
The tracks of most vehicle sunroofs are equipped with an anti-extrusion function. Therefore, if the car owner does not clean the dust, impurities, etc. on the sunroof slide rails after rain, the dust will accumulate for a long time and the sunroof will be difficult to completely close. Many car owners said that their sunroofs do not close tightly, which is simply the result of not cleaning and maintaining them regularly. After reading these two points, hurry up and start learning before the rainy season really comes!
