Installing brake caliper covers will result in failing the annual vehicle inspection. Introduction to Automotive Brake Caliper Covers: Automotive brake caliper covers mainly use high-temperature resistant adhesive, but they tend to fade over time, resulting in a very unattractive appearance. If low-quality caliper covers are used, they may fall off and get stuck in the tire's mechanical parts, or the metal rods on the covers could puncture the tire, causing a blowout. This is extremely dangerous during high-speed driving, so for the sake of driving safety, it is advisable not to install them. Braking System: Brake calipers are clamping devices designed to slow down, stop, or maintain the stopped state of a moving wheel, typically used only in disc brake systems. The working principle of disc brakes can be described using the analogy of a rotating disc: if you pinch the disc with your thumb and index finger, the disc will stop rotating. In this analogy, the thumb and index finger represent the function of the brake caliper.

What is Synthetic Engine Oil?

Synthetic engine oil is a type of motor oil that is artificially produced through chemical synthesis. Depending on the intended use, the composition of synthetic oil can be adjusted. During the manufacturing process, various natural substances are chemically broken down and then recombined with other compounds to produce synthetic engine oil. Here is more information about synthetic engine oil: 1. The development of synthetic oil began in the 1930s. At that time, due to the demanding operating conditions of aircraft engines, there was a need for higher-performance lubricants, prompting some chemical plants to start researching and producing synthetic oils. 2. To achieve better-performing lubricants, humans synthesized various oils through chemical methods, resulting in chemically synthesized engine oil, commonly referred to as synthetic oil. 3. Depending on the application, synthetic oil can be formulated with different components.
