From the lips of a strong half of humanity, automotive terms that are completely incomprehensible to women often break. Especially, this is clearly manifested when visiting the technical inspection station (SRT).

Dictionary of modern autolady

The mechanics at the service station, like aliens, begin to speak in a language incomprehensible to an earthling. Women, having heard their speech, are lost, they lose the gift of speech and they do not know at all what they should answer. Below we consider the most common expressions used by drivers.

Drum, disc

A woman who arrives at a car service to complain about a brake malfunction can easily hear unfamiliar words. A “drum”, for example, is a brake drum against which the brake pads rest. They are necessary so that the car can stop in a timely manner. Another word "disc A" - a brake disc. It allows the pads to snuggle up and stop the car from moving.

Shoe

"Shoe", in the lexicon of car owners - a special triangle that stops the rotation of the wheels of the car. As for rubber, autoladies should know about it. If the mechanics offered to “change shoes” for her car, then it was time to change winter tires for summer tires, or vice versa.

To change the oil, autolady may be invited to call on the "flyover". A woman should not think that a "flyover" is a bridge across some river. This is a special room in a car service where the car must go to the ramp, where the car's engine will be inspected by professional mechanics.

Not infrequently, women have to hear from mechanics about some kind of “additives”. This is an "anticorrosive" that protects the metal surface of the body from corrosion. There are also antifreeze additives. They do not allow the oil to freeze in the cold and protect the car engine .

In general, there are a large number of driving terms that are completely incomprehensible to women. But it doesn't matter. Autolady, in order not to “puzzle” her head, must trust men in everything. If they do this, then their car will always be in proper shape, and women will never have to bother again.
