Let's warm up! — Toyota Corolla Runx, 1.5 liter, 2001
Well, the severe Siberian frosts have come! Outside -30, it's time for night warm-ups! Although the car starts without problems. Nevertheless, I decided to play it safe and insulate my Knapsack a little so that my soul becomes calmer!
It started with the fact that I came to my father's garage with the intention of putting only a "cardboard on the radiator", I noticed that on all our trucks there were felt "covers" on the engines. I looked and thought, why don't I do the same! Sasha (one of the truck drivers) said that Privoz sells heat-resistant insulation with a foil side! Without hesitation, I went and bought myself 2 meters of this insulation and gave only 138 rubles =) Pretty cheap, but very effective! The machine retains heat longer and the engine heats up almost 2 times faster!
The process of "warming" is photographed below =)
And for this we will need:
1. Stationery Knife
2. Scissors
3. 2 meters of thermal insulation material
4. A few hands =)
Here is the roll
Expanded
We begin to ruthlessly kramsat =)
That's what happened =)
I made a special "pocket" in order to easily get to the battery without removing all the insulation
sticker
And so we go to the radiator, remove the grille, begin to fit
Voila! Everything is ready =) The machine is ready for winter =)
A week ago, I decided to glue the glove compartment with a rug so that everything that is inside does not hang out and strum!
I cut it, put it on a double car adhesive tape, warmed it with a hairdryer, the rug stuck to the dead! Now it's a little quieter in the cabin =)
And I bought the rug itself for 156 rubles, size 36 * 57 cm
Thank you for your attention =) do not forget to click on ***** =)
PS Your Gennasik
Yes, very comfortable! =) While walking to the store, 3 people passed me with the same rolls =) Tomorrow we will warm up the "fourteenth" friend =) Cheap and cheerful in general =)
Gennasik
Thanks ! =)) Learned from bitter experience =) Honda froze my snot well, all winter I suffered with it! The car was not for the Siberian frosts =)
No need to slander, my me has never let me down!
Yes, there are good specimens, but not Advance =) I often came to the service for right-handed Hondas, so there were several exactly the same frozen ones at once =)
here how to say ... whether it depends on the Honda or something else ...
I know a lot of Hondas, in winter it starts up at -30 with a half-kick)
Thanks ! =)) Learned from bitter experience =) Honda froze my snot well, all winter I suffered with it! The car was not for the Siberian frosts =)

only ours can write like that :)
we have -40 today ... I also warmed up PPC just like even a car and in a warm garage ...
well done! the right approach to winter
You are lucky =)) And here the frost is getting more and more severe! Soon we will live on the glacier =)
Forced warming =) hard for you! it's -15 outside my window in the garage -5 degrees! =) I didn't forget! =)
Yes, it's very effective! On the same day, as I did everything, I did all the third-party tests =) Result +5 =) It keeps the temperature well, warming up accelerated, there is not a single hint of insulation deformation, which made me very happy =)
I understand that I put thermal insulation in 2 layers, with foil to the engine?)
I additionally covered the Akum and made a heater so that it does not touch the wiring and hot spots on the engine
on the main road they showed that the foil so conducted the current and shorted out, didn’t you cut it out under the battery?
thermal insulation anyway, or is there still non-combustible?
