顯示 diff Top Car Myths – Busted! + * + With the ever-growing complexity of automotive manufacturing and technology, it's no surprise that we're met with a lot of incorrect information. Sometimes, such information morphs into becoming modern myths related to all things automotive. For those of us who know our cars inside out, there's not much to worry about. However, some of us may not know a lot about cars, so it's essential to be aware of these car myths. Read on to know what these car myths are, and why they're myths, and not facts. + You should fill your fuel in the morning to get better value + + ** + We're not really sure about the origins of this myth, but it's likely something that's based on scientific principles. Everyone's learnt about the expansion and contraction of liquids in varying temperatures in science class, and this is probably how the whole myth arose. However, the whole myth is busted, considering that fuel tanks are typically stored underground. Since they're not getting direct sunlight, it's highly unlikely that they'll go through any such temperature changes during the course of the day. All the fuel that's stored might only go through some minor changes, so it really doesn't matter when you fill your fuel. + Automatic transmission cars are less fuel-efficient than manual transmission cars + + * + This myth emerged around the time automatic transmissions were first introduced. It may have likely been true when the technology was still in its infancy. However, all that has changed now with the significant strides automotive transmission technology has taken. The automatic transmission vehicles of today possess more forward gears than their manual counterparts, making them just as fuel-efficient. All the additional gears present in modern automatic cars help to create more power at lower speeds, giving a balanced and fuel-efficient drive. + Bigger cars are considered to be safer for passengers + + * + This is another myth whose origins we're not entirely sure of. It might've had something to do with the way such larger vehicles were marketed during release. Larger cars with more seats were believed to have a better quality of material, and hence, better protection. However, we now know that it can't be true. Cars of all sizes have to go through vigorous safety standard testing. The seating capacity and quality of material used cannot be the only decisive factors for such a study. + You need to always replace your tyre after running over a sharp object + * We can see how this myth must've come up, but it's actually not true. It's possible that you may need a replacement tyre on certain occasions, but that's not always the case. A good way of identifying this is to check if the object is stuck to the tyre and the pressure hasn't reduced. Since the object might be plugging any hole that might be there on your tyre, you can continue driving without the need for a replacement. However, you must not drive for long in such cases. You can use a swift roadside assistance service such as the one provided by Service My Car to get you back on the road. + Nitrogen is only useful for supercars + * + Supercar owners are typically advised to only use nitrogen for their expensive and superior tyres. Such tyres are manufactured to only be inflated with nitrogen. However, the use of nitrogen is not restricted to those tyres. In fact, you can get more prolonged usage from regular tyres in regular cars with nitrogen. This is because nitrogen doesn't leak as much as air. With nitrogen, you get stable pressure and won't have to make as many trips to the filling station. + You should only service your car with your manufacturer + * This is another car myth that has stayed despite all the significant advancements automotive technology has seen. In the past, it made sense to only trust your vehicle with those who manufactured it, but that's not really applicable anymore. A lot of car maintenance alternatives have emerged thanks to the widespread availability of OEM and genuine auto spare parts. One such groundbreaking car maintenance solution is Service My Car. （2 行未修改） Book a service today online or on the Service My Car app. - If you need any type of saab repair service center in manchester, ServiceMyCar provides you free pickup and delivery plus full car service at the best saab repair center in manchester. + If you need any type saab service manchester center, ServiceMyCar provides you free pickup and delivery plus full car service at the best saab service center in manchester.

If your typically smooth ride feels unnaturally jittery, it might be a result of flat spots on one or more of your tyres. There are a couple of reasons as for why your tyres have grown flat spots. - - Some of them are common, and others, not so much. Either way, there are specific symptoms to look out for. If you suspect that your tyres might be at risk, you must look out for these symptoms. Read on to learn what exactly tyre spotting is, its most common causes, and the best remedies for it. - - - What is a tyre flat spot? - - * - - Flat spotting on your tyres occur when a flat patch forms on the rubber of your tyre that makes contact with the ground. This surface of your tyre is commonly referred to as the tyre's 'contact patch'. When your car is parked for an extended period, its weight and pressure put a load on all four contact patches of your tyres. - - If your vehicle is frequently used, the contact patch changes every time the car is taken out. However, if it remains parked in the same spot for a long time, the contact patch stays the same. As a result, flat spots occur when the contact patch is the same. - - Flat spots on your tyre are considered to compromise its integrity. As a result, your tyres get worn out unevenly. This is especially harmful if one area, in particular, gets worn out a lot more than the rest. It's at this stage that some noticeable symptoms show up. - - - What are some common symptoms of flat spots on your tyre? - - * - - Let's take a look at what some of the most common flat spotting symptoms are for your tyres. - - Flat spots that are visible - - Let's get the most obvious one out of the way. Flat spots aren't always inconspicuous. Sometimes, you're able to clearly see that there's a flat area on the contact patch of one or more of your tyres. This is especially the case if your car has been idle for a long time. - - Having said that, flat spots on your tyre aren't always visible. In such circumstances, you're advised to scrutinise the tyre treads. Have a look at all your tyres carefully and look out for unusual wear patterns. - - However, this is obviously no easy feat. Unmounting tyres, placing them side-by-side, and conducting an inspection can only be done by professionals at a garage. If you suspect that your tyres may have flat spots, entrust your car with the tyre experts at Service My Car. - - Odd vibrations - - Let's move on to some of the more challenging symptoms. As stated earlier, it's no easy feat to examine your tyre treads individually. However, there are other means to figure out if you have flat spots on your tyres. - - Next time you take your car for a spin, watch out for any strong vibrations. This is typically a giveaway that you might have flat spots on your tyres. Depending on what speed you're driving at, you might feel that your tyres have an odd vibration. - - Either way, feeling solid vibrations while driving can point to several other issues too. If you suspect any kind of vibration while driving, it's best to get a professional opinion. Go for a full inspection at Service My Car so you can ascertain what issues exist in your car. - - Intense thumping sensation or sounds - - Another symptom, in particular, is sensing or hearing thumps while you drive. As the flat spot of your tyre makes contact with the road, it emanates a rhythmic thumping sound. - - However, like we mentioned earlier about feeling vibrations, thumping can be attributed to a plethora of car issues. If you hear any thumping while driving, get your tyres inspected with a reputed car maintenance solution like Service My Car. - - Facing difficulty while steering - - This is a symptom that demonstrates the dangers of ignoring flat spots on your tyres. As the flat spotting of your tyres is prolonged, it results in your tyres being imbalanced. This has a direct effect on your steering capabilities. - - When you drive with tyres that have flat spots, you might notice that steering your car gets more difficult. If you feel this way, especially at higher driving speeds, then you need to get your wheels aligned and your tyres balanced. Look no further than Service My Car for all your tyre needs. - - - What are the most common reasons for tyre flat spotting? - - * - - Now that we're aware of the most common symptoms, let's look at the most common reasons for flat spotting. - - The most common reason - parking for too long - - As we've already covered multiple times here, this is the most common reason. Long-term parking is never good for your car, with your tyres taking the highest toll. - - If you're wondering how long a car can be parked before the tyres start developing flat spots, the answer might be a surprise. Most automotive research hints towards as little as one month. That means you can leave your car idle for a maximum of one month before its tyres start developing flat spots. - - Another reason - aggressive and sudden braking + Top Car Myths – Busted! + With the ever-growing complexity of automotive manufacturing and technology, it's no surprise that we're met with a lot of incorrect information.
