Auto repair is a pattern break and a show of strength these days. There are few spare parts in stock, originals cannot be found during the day with fire, prices no longer bite, but gnaw. To somehow sweeten the pill, the state is vigorously increasing the number of routes from China. The railway already reports that the number of freight trains from China will be increased to 10 units per week.
However, behind all this “Orient Express” it is somehow forgotten that in Russia there are also factories that can and can produce the parts of the car that are so necessary now. Moreover, they produce them despite the dominance of effective managers with MBA degrees.
There were times when they produced everything themselves, but then a “bright future” happened, which led to a massive transition of companies to the rental business, and the conveyors themselves began to assemble not consumer goods, but to re-glue stickers with hieroglyphs to more understandable. However, things are slowly but surely returning to normal: here’s another important part of the car, which they learned to make from Russian steel in Russia: oil pans.
Unfortunately, the iron basin in which motor oil is stored is subject to a number of “external factors”. It’s easy to break through once buried in a stone on the primer, and the mighty road salts are not merciful to it – it rots extremely quickly. And with iron protection – even faster, because the accumulated clay and other delights of the Russian road are washed only once a year – for maintenance. And this is not enough.
In such a simple way, every owner of a car older than 5 years comes across the need to replace the oil pan. We look at the original – we wipe sweat mixed with tears: the price is five figures, wait 30 to 60 days. How are you driving now? Close a hole with a finger or a plaster? Or top up oil every day?
Russian manufacturers nevertheless heard their buyer and without hesitation began to stamp “cymbals”. For Mitsubishi Lancer, which is widely known for its addiction to rust and rotten crankcases, a spare part suitable for all modifications is now being produced at the Yaroslavl Motor Plant. By the way, we put exactly this one on our editorial “Lancer”, because it was 5 times cheaper than the original and was in stock. The part fully passed the geometry test, clearly fell into place and “don’t miss”, and since then there are much less oil drops under the car.
Does it appear that we can do more than just present? Maybe we’ll make something different?
