Cleaning the engine and proper maintenance of vehicle example

PAGSASANAY SA TAGUMPAY

This is the Subaru Forester that we own and it is 10 years old.   It had several defects:

       1.  Faulty power steering;
 
       2.  Busted left low beam headlight

       3. Busted right foglight

       4. Leather seats getting moldy;

       5.  Dirty engine

1.  First thing I did was to dry the carpets which was soaked in water.  Then opened doors and windows under the sun to cure the mold problem Then wiped the seats with rag with small amount of kerosene;

2.  Then the power steering. I found out that:

          The front left tire was under inflated and had a hole and was leaking air.  Had it vulcanized;

          The ATF was lacking. So I topped it up

3. I encountered a lot of problem with the low beam lamp  however.  I had to remove the battery to gain access to this.  Then finally when I got to the busted H1 bulb, I could not remove it. So I had to consult www to find out how.  The only advice I got was pull, and pull hard.  Was i so happy to pull out the bulb and replace it otherwise it would cost me.

4. It did cost me to have the have the fog lamps because to gain access to it, you have to have this on a lift. It cost me P350.00 to have the repair completed. The wire to the fog lamp was cut...

Other TPM jobs:

1. I detailed the engine. Brushed away the dust, Cleaned the air ducts,   washed the air cleaner filter element, brushed clean the other metal and rubber parts.

2. Rubbed (binoli) paint job.  Washed the tires with soap and water.

LOOK AT THE RESULTS. (Puwede kayang gayahin ng TS?)

                                              So clean and shiny di ba...Nababasa label ng cover?!

                                     Napaso daliri nadumihan, natungkab mga kuko

                                           Parang bago, showroom condition

                                         Makinang na paint job, polished

                                                  Clean tires, walang putik

                                                   Gumagana na 2 fog lamps

                                                     Functioning low beam and fog lamps
