7. Troubleshooting
Most issues with diecast models are minor and can be resolved with simple adjustments.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Doors/Hood/Trunk are stiff or do not open smoothly. | Dust accumulation or tight hinges from manufacturing. | Gently work the part back and forth. A very small amount of silicone lubricant (not oil-based) can be applied to the hinge points if necessary, but typically not required. Do not force. |
| Wheels do not roll freely. | Debris caught in the axle or minor misalignment. | Check for any visible debris around the axles and gently remove it. Ensure the wheels are properly seated. |
| Paint fading or discoloration. | Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. | Store the model away from direct sunlight and avoid using harsh cleaning agents. This is preventative, not a fix. |
