CAR was able to reflect the personality of its owner. Is worth, if the salon car modification mushroomed everywhere pampering its customers who want the car look more stylish, different and more character.
But unfortunately, the vehicle owner sometimes less careful when making modifications to the car. One of them is to ignore the safety, comfort or convenience by eliminating some or all of the important features that are in his car.
To anticipate things that are cool, the following explanation of some modifications that damage the car features.
Replacement exhaust
Although the character as a sewer, the exhaust actually become one of the components taken into account in the design of a car. We recommend that you do not carelessly change the muffler body, from front to rear.
This can result in reduced benefits of the relevant car, as fuel is more wasteful, the noise, and high emissions because cayalytic converter removed.
The loss of catalytic converter can cause the computer to misread the emissions data that are constantly changing the composition of the fuel mixture in the engine.
No doubt, the fuel tends to be wasteful, besides causing decreased engine performance and malfunction indicator lamp (check engine) lights continues.
Pasting stickers
If your car is equipped with parking sensors, should avoid installing a sticker on top of the sensor. This can cause the car to a foreign object sensor increases. As a result, the sensor will continue to sound the alarm every time you enter a reverse gear.
Changing audio
We recommend that when replacing the standard audio system in your car needs to be consulted with the relevant car manufacturer. Given, now many types of car audio system is integrated with various features such as buttons on the steering wheel or on-board computer.
For example, features ASL (Automatic Sound Leveling) at Toyota Vios which is able to extend the volume automatically when the car speed increases. When the head unit replaced with aftermarket products, then this feature will be lost so that you
must adjust the volume manually.
Replace steering wheel
If the steering wheel of your car is equipped with airbags or multifunction button, you should not be tempted to replace your steering wheel is. When replaced, the airbag standard will not be installed correctly, or even can not installed at all. Besides the safety factor is reduced, airbag warning light on the instrument will turn on which of course continue to interfere.
Changing the diameter of the wheel
Modifying the wheel is often done by the automotive enthusiast. However, they did not realize changing wheel diameter can reduce the comfort while driving.
This resulted in an inaccurate speedometer readings due to spin the wheel read more slowly at the same speed. Pun, affects the measurement of fuel consumption, trip distance meter and a reminder service time.
In fact, some cars are already equipped with features of anti-flat tire, replacement wheel will cause you no longer can use the feature with the maximum. It's useless to pay dearly for this feature if you can not be used in emergency situations, is not it?
