Inflate Tires To The Pressure Shown On The Tire's Sidewall.

            

Inflate tires to the pressure shown on the tire's sidewall.

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- The pounds-per-square-inch figure on the side of the tire is the maximum pressure that the tire can safely hold, not the automaker's recommended pressure, which provides the best balance of braking, handling, gas mileage, and ride comfort.

- That figure is usually found on a doorjamb sticker, in the glove box, or on the fuel-filler door.

- Perform a monthly pressure check when tires are cold or after the car has been parked for a few hours.

When Replacing Only Two Tires, The New Ones Go On The Front.

              

When replacing only two tires, the new ones go on the front.

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- Retreaded tires can be used on steer axles, EXCEPT on passenger buses.

- Alternative to new tire steer tires without any loss of performance or safety.

A Larger Capacity Battery Will Damage Car

                 
 A larger capacity battery will damage car

THIS IS NOT TRUE!
- A starter motor will only draw a fixed amount of current from the battery, based on the resistance of its load.
- A larger current capacity battery supplies only what is required. It will not damage your vehicle.
- Using batteries with higher or lower voltage or too tall can damage your vehicle.

Misconception Of Tire Bursting If Pressure Exceeds

                

Misconception Of Tire Bursting If Pressure Exceeds

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- The max press is not a measure of the tire's burst pressure.

- It is actually a measure of the pressure needed in the tire to carry the maximum load the car can handle.

- A new tire won't burst with even 3 times more than the max press.

Can A Spare Tire Be Use Driving Fast And A Logn Period

                   

Is it true that you can drive as fast and as long on a temporary or compact spare tire as you can on a regular tire.

Special Repair Methods Aren't Needed For Steel-Belted Radials.

                   

Special repair methods aren't needed for steel-belted radials

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- The proper method for repairing steel-belted radials requires that the tire be removed from the wheel.

- The hole be filled with a plug-type repair inserted from the outside of the tires and a patch be placed over the hole from the inside of the tire.

- Be aware of the repair method used: If the tire isn't removed from the wheel and a patch placed on the inside, it is an improper repair.

                   

Wheel Alignment Should Be Done
Every Year 

                   

Some say, "Wheel alignment should be done every year"

THIS IS NOT
TRUE!
- Wheel alignment is not maintenance and does not need to be
routinely performed.

- Vehicles are not knocked out of alignment by
hitting potholes, unless something is bent or damaged.

- The symptoms of
wheel alignment include tire wear particularly to one side or the other, a
crooked steering wheel when driving straight and/or a pull to the right are left
that is constant at all speeds.

I Will Need An Expensive Alignment Kit If I Install Lowering Springs On ...

                     

A comman myth : "I will need an expensive alignment kit if
I install lowering springs on my car."

THIS IS NOT TRUE!
- According to Eibach, a leader in spring engineering and production.
- Most vehicles do not require an alignment kit after installing a set of lowering
springs that result in mild lowering of about an inch.

Does Steel-Belting In Radial Tires Prevents Punctures And Flats?

                  

Does steel-belting in radial tires prevents punctures and flats from nails, glass and other debris?

THIS IS NOT TRUE!
- Any pneumatic tire can be punctured and lose air.
- While steel-belted tires are durable, they are not indestructible.
- Avoid road debris and visually check your tires regularly to catch air-loss problem

You Can't Convert Back To Regular Oil After Using Synthetic Oil?

The most conman signage we see across garages is "You can't convert back to regular oil after using synthetic oil "

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- You can change back to regular oil as long as it meets the regulations of your car manual. 

Is it bad for my engine to switch between synthetic and conventional motor oil?

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- Today's synthetics are totally compatible with conventional oil, and other leading synthetics. 

- Switch back and forth all you want. 

- Some who live where temperatures plummet well below zero use synthetic in the winter for its protection during cold starts and extreme temperatures and then switch to lower-priced conventional oil for warmer weather.

Synthetic Oil Is Always Better.

 "Synthetic oil is always better."

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- Synthetic Oil and Regular Oil Perform Equally well.

- Synthetic oil is no better than natural oil for vehicles driven slowly in towns and cities, and at highway speeds, in a climate with moderate weather.

- It benefits only high-performance racing engines or vehicles that driven in very cold weather, below 0 degrees F. (-18 C.) for extended periods.

My Tire Is Covered By My Vehicle Manufacturer's Warranty - Including Punctures And Cuts

Some say,"My tire is covered by my vehicle manufacturer's warranty, including punctures and cuts."

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- Tire manufacturers warranties cover workmanship and materials on the tires.

- Your vehicle's coverage does not include tires. The tire manufacturers' warranties do not cover use-related damages such as cuts, nail holes or impacts.

- However, some individual tire dealers do sell road hazard warranties at the time of a new replacement tire purchase, which can cover these types of problems.

Cheaper And More Profitable Comebacks On-The-Car Lathe

New rotors prevent comebacks and are cheaper and more profitable than an on-the-car lathe

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- In some cases, a new rotor should be machined to match the vehicle with an on-the-car brake lathe.

- The main advantage of these lathes is that they are able to cut a rotor in its operating plane.

- This means that the rotor is machined to match the hub.

Does A Car Warranty Mean I Take The Car To The Dealer For Maintenance?

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- When you buy a new car, it usually comes with a bumper-to-bumper warranty, which covers components like sensors, electrical components and the air conditioning.

- You can take your car to independent service center for the routine work, or even do it yourself, without affecting the warranty.

You Can Visually See If Tires Have The Correct Air Pressure

You can visually see if tires have the correct air pressure.

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- Air pressure can be as low as much as 10 psi but yet not show any outward signs.

- Make sure to have the air pressure checked on a regular basis.

- Under-inflated tires wear out faster and your vehicle uses more gas as a result of the increased rolling resistance.

Does Over Inflating Tires Helps with Gas Mileage?

Does over inflating tires helps with gas mileage?

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

- Over inflated tires cause wear in the middle of the tire.

- Under inflated tires causes wear on the outside of the tire.

Save the Mother Nature

Nature has provided us with the best possible things to make our life easy and wonderful! But are we really kind to Mother Nature??

With the increasing heat in the atmosphere, we are now facing the consequences of global warming. We are ultimately responsible for disturbing nature to such an extent and finally we would be in danger because of this.

Today, the level of pollution has been reached to such an extent that there is no doubt it will take our lives off if we let it grow like this. So, not for anything thing else, but for our own selves, it is our duty to save nature.

If we really want to save our nature, majorly we should focus on two things; limited and wise use of natural resources and maximum recirculation of the things. Things can be recycled right from carry bags to automobiles and its spare parts.

Now let us see in what ways you can recycle the things. Share every small idea here with all of us that will be beneficial ultimately to all of us…
