Generally, steering wheel wear occurs at around 50,000 kilometers, but the actual mileage at which wear appears can vary due to differences in driving habits and wear resistance. Factors affecting steering wheel wear: The material of the steering wheel varies. Currently, there are materials like plastic, synthetic leather, and genuine leather on the market, with prices increasing accordingly. Some high-end models may even feature real wood materials. Different materials will inevitably result in varying degrees of steering wheel wear. Poor driving habits can accelerate steering wheel wear. Methods to prevent steering wheel wear: Use a steering wheel cover. The functions of a steering wheel cover include protecting the steering wheel from wear; improving grip and friction; preventing hands from slipping due to sweat; enhancing responsiveness and safety while driving; and reducing vibration absorption.

What does each part of a vehicle VIN represent?

Each part of a vehicle VIN represents: 1. The first section: Identifies the vehicle manufacturer, consisting of the first three digits. The first digit indicates the country/region of origin; the second digit identifies the vehicle manufacturer; the third digit identifies the manufacturer's division or conventional vehicle type. 2. The second section: Five digits (positions 4 to 8) describe the vehicle. Codes from position 4 to 8 may also indicate the transmission type, vehicle class, or other features such as seat belts and airbags. 3. The third section: The ninth digit is always a check digit. The correct check digit is obtained through a series of calculations based on other digits in the VIN. 4. The fourth section: The tenth digit is the model year code; the eleventh digit is the plant code, indicating the assembly plant of the vehicle. 5. The fifth section: The last six digits (positions 12 to 17) are the production sequence number, though some small manufacturers producing fewer than 500 vehicles per year use positions 12, 13, and 14 as additional manufacturer identification codes.

Is it necessary to shift to neutral when parking a car?

It is not mandatory to shift to neutral when parking a car. The parking methods are as follows: 1. For automatic transmission: Press the brake pedal to bring the car to a smooth stop, shift from D (Drive) to N (Neutral), engage the handbrake, press the brake pedal while shifting from N to P (Park), release the foot brake, press the one-button start/stop to turn off the power; 2. For manual transmission: Gently press the brake pedal to reduce speed, press the clutch, shift to neutral after coming to a complete stop, engage the handbrake, and turn off the engine. Precautions for parking a car include: 1. Turn off all electrical equipment inside the car before shutting down the engine to prevent battery drain from prolonged use; 2. Choose a parking spot that does not obstruct others, affecting the next drive; 3. Use turn signals before parking and observe surrounding vehicles and pedestrians.

What does PDU mean in new energy vehicles?

Electric vehicle PDU refers to the high-voltage power distribution box of electric vehicles. Its function is to electrically connect high-voltage components through busbars and wiring harnesses, providing charging and discharging control, power-on control for high-voltage components, circuit overload and short-circuit protection, high-voltage sampling, low-voltage control, etc., for the high-voltage system of new energy vehicles, protecting and monitoring the operation of the high-voltage system. Below is extended information about PDU: 1. Module functions: PDU can also integrate functions such as the BMS main control, charging module, DC module, PTC control module, etc. Compared with traditional PDUs, it includes more vehicle function modules, is more integrated in functionality, more complex in structure, and has cooling structures such as water cooling or air cooling. PDU is flexibly configurable and can be customized according to customer requirements, meeting the needs of different customers for various vehicle models. 2. Advantages: The entire distribution box adopts sheet metal or aluminum alloy housing with excellent heat dissipation and vibration resistance, with high safety and waterproof sealing levels. It also has significant advantages in lifespan, power consumption, size, and weight.

What to Do When a Car's Chassis Hits a Step?

Here are the solutions for when a car's chassis hits a step: 1. Cars are designed with a certain level of impact resistance in the chassis: The most vulnerable parts of the chassis are the various pipes, such as the brake hydraulic pipes and fuel pipes, but these pipes are hidden and protected in the grooves of the chassis steel plate and do not protrude above the chassis level. 2. If the chassis gets stuck on a step: The chassis steel plate will make flat contact with the step, so the pipes hidden in the grooves of the steel plate will not be damaged. 3. If it hits a protruding stone on the ground: The impact is point-like, and the protruding stone is likely to hit the pipes in the grooves, causing oil or fluid leaks, which can be more harmful. 4. If the pipes are not damaged and only the steel plate is scratched, applying some paint to prevent rust is sufficient. If the pipes are damaged, a thorough inspection and repair are necessary. 5. To prevent severe damage from impacts, you can spray the car's chassis with an undercoating or install an engine guard plate.

How to Deal with Fogging on the Outside of the Glass When Using Air Conditioning in Summer?

Here are the methods to deal with fogging on the outside of the glass when using air conditioning in summer: 1. Avoid directing cold air towards the front windshield; 2. Use detergent-type liquids for anti-fogging; 3. Apply anti-fog spray on the fogged windshield and wipe it dry with a cloth to immediately clean the glass; 4. Open a small gap in the window to create air convection and reduce temperature differences. Precautions for using air conditioning include: 1. Choose an appropriate air conditioning temperature; 2. Do not immediately activate the internal circulation when entering the car in summer; 3. Use air conditioning in a fully enclosed state; 4. Do not adjust the air outlet direction randomly; 5. Avoid running the air conditioning for extended periods; 6. Do not rest or sleep for long periods in a stationary car with the air conditioning on.
