    Absolutely plastic, and plastic is more expensive than other guards, and the plastic can be restored to its original shape after being bumped, iron, aluminum alloy bumps are into small pits, I was for car maintenance when ready to install, only to learn!

    Added: What you will see in the car club:

    Question: If I want to install a guard plate inside the Focus engine, can I install it in a 4S store?

    Answer: It is recommended that you do not install this guard. Why doesn't the engine design have this thing?

    You may see a narrower plastic plate on the front, which is dustproof. Do you want to add a guard plate, is it iron or plastic? There is no longer this need to add plastic, and it is even worse to add iron.

    Because this car is designed, in the event of a crash, the engine automatically falls off into the ground. If you install an iron guard, the engine will move back and the driver's or co-pilot's legs may be impacted in the event of a severe crash, which is dangerous.

    Advantage: Prevents the oil pan from being damaged. Avoid the engine being hit by flying stones.

    Disadvantages: Increased weight on the front of the car, affecting handling. Affects engine heat dissipation.

    If you really want to add it, you need to use plastic fibers. The original factory should have this accessory, ** about 650 yuan.

    It's best to buy alloys.

    Light weight, high strength and thin.

    Aluminum alloy bar.

    Is it necessary to install the Focus engine guard The engine guard is an engine guard designed according to the model, which is designed to prevent the engine from being wrapped in mud and the engine during driving. I think it's still necessary for the Focus to install engine guards. It is beneficial for the car to install the engine underguard, but there may also be hidden dangers, so whether to choose to install it depends on the needs:

    1. The benefits of installation: during the daily driving of the vehicle, the wheels will roll up the debris on the ground, such as sediment, rainwater, etc.; 2. These things may cause a certain degree of damage to the chassis parts of the car, and the installation of the upper baffle can avoid the loss of these parts; 3. Installation hazards: If the engine is equipped with a guard plate, then in the event of an accident, it will hinder the function of the engine sinking, thereby increasing the hidden danger of injury to the people in the car.

    First of all, you have to be clear, what is chassis armor and what is a guard plate?

    1. The chassis armor does not need to be sprayed, the original car has its own car, and the function is to prevent corrosive substances on the road from corroding the bottom parts. The original car has been sprayed, it is very thick and strong, and there is no need to spend that unjust money.

    2. The bottom guard plate of the engine, depending on the road conditions you are driving, I am in Beijing, the road conditions are better, and it is not installed, but even so, it will sometimes touch the following, the Fox chassis is low, it is indeed more dangerous, once the engine is damaged, the filter, it is also more troublesome. I didn't change it anyway. However, it is troublesome to replace, and when it is maintained in the future, it is more difficult to disassemble and assemble the machine filter.

    The pros and cons are up to you. In addition, even if it is loaded, it must be filled with resin, and there is a thin and thick distinction, so look at it.

    3. Soundproof cotton, in fact, is to install some soundproof cotton under the front machine cover to reduce engine sound. It is said that the Focus engine is loud, but in fact, this is indeed a problem. Personally, I don't think there's much point in pretending to be this, because it's not that the engine doesn't go off, but that you can't hear it.

    My treatment is that I don't use the original engine oil of 4s directly, but use fully synthetic engine oil, and the engine sound becomes smaller immediately, and the engine oil is used well, which is good for the engine, this is really not loud, not inaudible.

    All things considered, think for yourself.

    Now the general new car is equipped with chassis armor, if you must turn, it will also form a certain protection for the car, but it is recommended to use about two bottles, although it is painted very thickly, but it will be too thick and heavy and easy to fall off.

    The sound insulation effect of American cars is generally good, and there should be no need to install sound insulation cotton.

    My 07 paragraph:

    The engine guard plate was installed, resin, more than 500, scraped off a year ago and not installed again;

    The chassis armor is known as the one that was given when I bought the car, and I felt that I was fooled, and I didn't know whether it was installed or not.

    The soundproof cotton is installed, and the sound has not dropped significantly, but it is too hot in summer and wants to dismantle it.

    It's useless to do this, but it's immediate.

    It is best to install one under the engine guard, and for practical and safe reasons, it is OK to install a resin one. One is to protect the engine, and the other is to keep the engine compartment clean.

    In addition, Fox does not have soundproof cotton... On the engine cover is a thermal insulation cotton.

    The Focus comes from the factory with a resin engine guard. Although the protection is not strong, it is enough for daily use on city roads. If you are not at ease, or often run on country dirt roads, you can replace the stainless steel or aluminum alloy guard plate to enhance protection.

    Engine guards are mainly used to protect the engine and transmission, and it is contradictory whether they are installed or not. The protection of the engine and gearbox after installation is good, but once a serious frontal collision accident occurs after installation, it will affect the protection of the engine sinking. Most of the time, this question depends on the driving conditions.

    If you usually drive in the city, the speed of the car should be slow, even if it is a slight rubbing. Comparatively speaking, the advantages of installing engine guards outweigh the disadvantages. If you're occasionally on the road, chassis protection can be mitigated.

    Conversely, if the speed is always high, it is better not to install it from the perspective of the people in the car. Installation depends on the specific requirements for illumination. If you're new to the game or the road is complicated, of course, you'll need to install an engine guard.

    Of course, if you usually walk a lot in the city and are confident in your driving skills, you can also do without.

    Millions of car purchase subsidies.

    The installation method of the lower guard plate of the Focus water tank is to remove the bottom guard plate screws, and put them away, and then install a new guard plate and tighten the screws. The car water tank generally refers to the radiator. The radiator belongs to the automobile cooling system, and the radiator in the engine water cooling system is composed of three parts: the water inlet chamber, the water outlet chamber, the main piece and the radiator core.

    The maintenance of the car water tank is as follows:

    1. Stop the vehicle and turn off the engine, open the expansion kettle and fill the water tank cleaning agent after the coolant temperature drops down;

    2. Start the engine until the cooling fan works and then idle for 5-10 minutes;

    3. Turn off the ignition and remove the front bumper of the vehicle. When disassembling, make sure that all the fixing screws have been unscrewed, and then slowly disassemble from both ends to the middle, and do not break the fixing buckle;

    4. Ensure that the coolant temperature is completely cooled, and then drain the water tank cleaner along with the coolant, and finally replace the engine coolant with a new one.

There will be a mounting guard plate under the engine of the car, which is mainly used to protect the engine and prevent external injuries to the engine. If the foreign body is relatively large, the guard plate can't stop this, and this will also affect the heat dissipation. Press not to look at yourself, look.

It is absolutely necessary to install, preferably steel. Because of the strong steel, it has better protection for the engine and a high safety factor in case of a collision between a bad road condition and a protrusion on the ground. Don't worry about the weight, it's very light. No matter what road conditions you drive, you need to install it, and prevention is the main thing.

The engine guard plate is divided into resin steel plate and aluminum alloy according to the material, the weight of plastic is relatively light, the strength is low, the strength of steel is large, but the weight is relatively large, which will increase fuel consumption, the weight of aluminum alloy is relatively light, and the strength is moderate, which is a little expensive.
