Some things you will encounter with a car

10.5 During the National Day holiday, I sent my grandfather to visit a relative’s house. The community was under construction and renovation. There was a good road when I entered, but it was blocked by an excavator when I came out. I had to take another road. The road was dug, and I found the wheel when I got home It was not a stone but the front bumper, which was scratched. At that time, the workers were watching, and there was no construction sign indicating that this road could not be passed.

I asked my relatives for the contact information of the property in the community, and the property director gave the contact information of the construction party. The conversation was relatively straightforward at first. After all, relatives knew people from the property and said hello, but there was a dispute over the compensation amount. I asked about the repair cost of 800 yuan, so I asked him to pay ¥900 – ¥1000. But the other party was only willing to pay ¥500, and there was a stalemate on the phone, and there was no progress. I decided to run over to chat face-to-face, make preparations before going, and transfer the video of the driving recorder. Fortunately, there is video evidence to prove that It is indeed the car damage caused by the construction.

It was still raining that day. I came to the project department and showed them the video. Their attitude improved a lot. I guess they guessed that I had no evidence at first. Then I took them to see the damage to my car. Started to say ¥800, and after some tug of war, the final negotiation was at 900, and the matter was finally over. The bargaining chips I used to negotiate during this period were:

  1. Traffic police team, let the traffic police come to the scene to negotiate and deal with it
  2. Contact the insurance company for intervention and subrogation
  3. To be extreme, the car is parked here, stop construction, call the supervision and report number, the construction is not standardized, there are all kinds of safety hazards (do not go to this step)

I thought it was difficult to defend my rights, but it’s actually not that complicated. However, in the future, you should not be overconfident when you encounter a section that you find difficult to drive. You have to stop when it is time to stop.

Old car maintenance 10.20 Repair shop discharged

Recently, my dad got a new car and eliminated an old German car for me. The mileage has exceeded 24w. The condition of the car is quite bad. I am a careful person. Since it was given to me, I will do it Do a physical examination and then repair, first find out the cause of the engine fault light.

After driving to the auto repair shop introduced by a friend, after connecting the OBD test and “seeing, hearing, asking, and cutting”, it needs to be replaced:

  1. Mobil 5W40 fully synthetic motor oil 5L and filter ¥600
  2. Spark plug 4 ✖️ ¥100 (severe carbon deposition) ¥400
  3. Waste valve ¥350
  4. Water stop pipe ¥150
  5. Antifreeze ¥150
  6. Clean the throttle ¥80
  7. Air filter ¥50

Total: ¥1750 (erased thirty yuan)

The ball head of the chassis shock absorber also has a gap, but the replacement cost is quite high. If it costs 2000+, the residual value of the whole car is only tens of thousands of yuan, so it will not be replaced. Originally, I asked the auto repair shop to clean it for me, but when I went to pick up the car, I didn’t even clear the dust, nor did I wash the ashtray. The ¥300 fee for washing the car is not paid, and I will go to the serious interior to have a fine wash on another day. I forgot to buy the inner and outer air conditioner filter, and I will replace it before winter.

The rest I also bought:

  1. Car charger (Belkin 37w dual-port charger, for Apple, just buy it without thinking, it is more expensive)
  2. Main and co-pilot seat covers (seats are badly damaged, but manual repair is too expensive)
  3. Car bracket (not bought, ready to choose the air outlet)
  4. Key case (although you basically don’t need this stuff, but the original key is a little worn out, so let’s install one)

I hope this car can drive as long as possible in my hands.
