Winter came to an end — logbook Toyota Corolla 2009

Yes, today, on December 1, 2010, not only calendar, but also climatic winter came to Moldova. In the morning it was -7 and now there is no particular trend towards warming.
The thermometer overboard shows -4. However, there is no snow promised by weather forecasters, maybe it's for the better, it's hard to say.
Against the background of the onset of cold weather, he appreciated the warmer. It's nice though. By the way, it is not clear why some "crickets" woke up in the cabin. Squeaks and clicks coming from plastic parts are heard from different sides. HM . This was not the case before, probably the effect of temperature deformation. Today, while walking around the market, I bought some sealant. I think if it gets warmer at the weekend, I’ll glue the torpedo somewhere so that it doesn’t creak.

For complete peace of mind for the preparedness of the car for the winter, I poured the anti-freeze into the pepelats and bled the system so that the washer capillaries were filled with concentrated anti-freeze (before that it was loosened).

The city is full of sellers of striped sticks, enthusiastically scooping loot from drivers. Because according to the next amendment to the traffic rules, from the 1st 12th month to March 1st, everyone is obliged to drive exclusively on winter tires, and those who are not changed shoes are asked to add a small fraction to the background of valiant wrestlers.
Gee, just in case, I whitewashed the "snowflakes" on the tires, for better readability, so to speak, and to avoid questions regarding the seasonality of my rubber.

In winter, on the contrary, it became softer, and in terms of controllability at temperatures from +6 and below, there is no difference with winter, if it is warmer it is a little loose. And it's already snowing. :-)

That's for sure))) About the weather and replenishment of the feeder. I changed too. After a 55 year old profile, I moved to 70 and it seemed that I did not change the tires, but the whole car. Smooth running, swallowing small irregularities, sluggishness of the steering wheel — you will have to put up with this at least until spring :-(
ZY Sedna at night and tomorrow it will snow!

My profile has not changed, the wheel size is identical. And on the hard suspension, thank God, I rolled further on the Skoda.

So I say that my car has become softer, but I do not like it. When stiff, the handling is much better and more interesting than the sensations of “Luminous” or “Loose” on a high profile.
Z.Y. maybe the reason is too high profile (185/70 P14). Although in winter safety comes first.
