Yes, here are the potential hazards after polishing a car's brake discs: 1. Brake Pads: Brake pads are the most critical safety components in a car's braking system. The effectiveness of braking is primarily determined by the brake pads. They create friction between the brake pads and the drum or disc, converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy during the friction process, thereby achieving the goal of slowing down or stopping the vehicle. 2. Brake Fluid: Brake fluid (also known as hydraulic fluid) is mainly used in the car's hydraulic braking system to transmit pressure, enabling the wheel brakes to perform their braking function. 3. Brake Discs: Brake discs are primarily used for braking, with the braking force coming from the brake calipers. When the brake pedal is pressed during vehicle movement, the brake calipers clamp the brake discs to slow down or stop the vehicle.

How to Turn on the Cruise Control in the Tiguan?

Tiguan's cruise control activation method: The switch is located on the lower left side of the steering wheel, with main functions including off, resume cruise, set speed limit, and speed adjustment. The sports version also includes distance adjustment. The switch button is on the upper part of the lever; simply toggle it to turn on or off. The cruise control system, also known as the speed control system or autonomous driving system, functions by maintaining the vehicle's speed as set by the driver without the need to press the accelerator pedal, allowing the car to travel at a constant speed. In terms of configuration, the Tiguan comes standard with ESP body stability system, EBD electronic brake-force distribution, ASR traction control, front dual airbags, and front side airbags to ensure driving safety.

What are the reasons for the Camry's inability to brake effectively?

Here are the reasons for the Camry's inability to brake effectively: 1. Soft Braking: Long braking distance, prone to rear-end collisions. The causes include leakage from the wheel cylinder, leakage from the master cylinder, or swelling of the rubber cup. Swelling of the rubber cup, although it may not lose much fluid, causes the fluid to return, resulting in soft braking. Drivers often underestimate the total braking distance, which includes the driver's reaction time distance, the braking system coordination time distance, and the actual braking distance, all combined. 2. Brake Pulling: During braking, the vehicle pulls to one side, especially in cars without ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), making it difficult to control the direction and increasing the risk of accidents. The causes include uneven brake wear, swelling of one rubber cup in the master cylinder, or leakage from one wheel cylinder.

What are the differences between mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and hybrid vehicles?

Hybrid vehicles do not have an external charging port, while plug-in hybrids do. Mild hybrid vehicles are equipped with very small motor power and battery capacity. Mild hybrid is a type of hybrid system. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles offer stronger performance, longer pure electric driving range, and lower fuel consumption. Below are the details: 1. Mild hybrid vehicles: These refer to light hybrid vehicles. Mild hybrid technology changes the original power output method of the vehicle. Mild hybrid vehicles typically use pure electric power for starting, resulting in minimal vibration and noise when starting the engine. 2. Hybrid vehicles: Hybrid vehicles have high fuel efficiency and excellent driving performance. The engine of a hybrid vehicle still uses fuel, but with the assistance of an electric motor during starting and acceleration, fuel consumption can be reduced. Simply put, compared to vehicles of the same size, hybrid vehicles have lower fuel costs.

How does car damage insurance compensate if a vehicle is scrapped due to water immersion?

Insurance companies generally sign a total loss agreement with the car owner and provide a certain amount of compensation based on the agreed insured amount. The following are relevant details: 1. Claim scope: You must purchase the corresponding car damage insurance to receive compensation from the insurance company. In claims for vehicle damage after heavy rain, as long as the engine is not damaged due to secondary ignition in water, all repairs and part replacements fall under the coverage of car damage insurance. If the vehicle is stationary and is completely submerged in water, resulting in total loss, the insurance company will compensate for the total loss. However, if car damage insurance is not purchased, all these losses must be borne by the owner, and the insurance company will not provide compensation. 2. Car damage insurance: This is a type of commercial auto insurance where the insurance company compensates within a reasonable range for damage to the insured vehicle caused by an insured accident while the vehicle is being used by the insured or an authorized driver.
