Car rear bumper cracks can be repaired. Below are the repair methods and precautions for a cracked rear bumper: Repair Methods: Rear bumpers are typically made of soft plastic, which is flexible and energy-absorbing. Therefore, in cases of minor cracks, a plastic welding gun can be used for repair. By heating and melting the plastic welding rod and the surface film, the plastic can be melted and bonded. After the repair is completed, paint is sprayed to ensure it matches the original car paint color without any color difference. Precautions: If the crack is large, repair is not recommended. Even if repaired in time, due to structural damage, the bumper cannot perform its safety protection function. It is advisable to directly replace it with a new bumper.

What Causes Excessive Noise in the Car?

There are several reasons for excessive noise inside a car while driving, including engine noise, tire noise, wind noise, and chassis noise. Below are explanations for the causes of loud noise during car operation: Engine Noise: Check if the engine oil pump, cooling system, or exhaust pipe is damaged, then adjust the valves and inspect the engine oil pressure. If no issues are found but the noise persists, consider installing soundproofing material under the hood. Tire Noise: Adjust the tire pressure to a moderate level, as excessively high tire pressure can increase noise. Additionally, attaching a piece of felt to the wheel well can help reduce noise. Wind Noise: The faster the driving speed, the greater the wind noise. Adding sealing strips to the door frames or incorporating soundproofing material inside the doors can effectively reduce the noise entering the car. Chassis Noise: The chassis may generate friction with the air. Applying soundproofing material and vibration-damping panels to the bottom of the trunk can help mitigate this noise.

What is the Difference Between a Sedan and a Three-Box Car?

Here are the differences between a three-box car and a sedan: 1. Different structure: A three-box car consists of the front engine compartment, the middle passenger compartment, and the rear luggage compartment. A sedan extends the passenger compartment approximately at the same height towards the rear, combining the rear luggage compartment and the passenger compartment into one, reducing it to two 'boxes'—the engine compartment and the passenger compartment—without a protruding rear luggage compartment. 2. Different features: A three-box sedan is high in the middle and low at both ends, appearing symmetrical from the side, with an aesthetically pleasing and elegant design. The disadvantage of a three-box sedan is its longer body size, making it less convenient to drive and park in crowded big cities. A sedan has a spacious rear door, giving it flexible and versatile usage characteristics. By folding down the rear seats, you can obtain a much larger cargo space than a three-box car, which can be used to transport many large household appliances and items.

What Causes the Steering Wheel of Baojun to Stick?

Baojun steering wheel sticking may be caused by the following reasons: Input sensor malfunction For example, a fault in the grating angle measurement sensor may prevent the ECU from properly obtaining user operation parameters. ECU malfunction: Calculation deviations in the ECU itself may result in vehicle control that contradicts the user's operational intentions. Improper driving: It may be due to prolonged driving with an unbalanced vehicle body, causing deviations in the yaw angle sensor position. Solutions for steering wheel sticking: Minor steering wheel sticking can sometimes be resolved by adjusting the steering wheel up and down and then returning it to its original position; in other cases, turning the steering wheel lock-to-lock a few times while stationary may solve the sticking. If the issue cannot be resolved using the above methods, it is recommended to visit a 4S store for inspection and repair as soon as possible.

What are the new items added to Subject 2?

New items added to Subject 2: Some regions have added simulated tunnel driving and simulated driving in rainy (foggy) and slippery road conditions, totaling 7 items; while in Shanghai, Subject 2 includes 9 items, adding simulated tunnel driving, parking for toll collection, emergency stopping, and narrow road U-turns. Below are some precautions for the Subject 2 test: 1. Adjust the seat properly: Before starting, ensure the seat is adjusted and the seatbelt is fastened before verifying fingerprints. 2. Follow the test item rules: Each test item in the examination area is monitored by GPS positioning. The control line (yellow dashed line) of each item represents the test area for that item. Once the front of the vehicle passes the control line, it means the test for that item has begun, and the test rules for that item must be followed to completion. 3. Correct mistakes promptly: When an operational error is detected, correct it immediately to ensure accuracy and reduce the chance of point deductions.

What Causes the Alarm to Sound a Few Minutes After Locking the Car?

The alarm sounding a few hours after locking the car is due to the vehicle alarm system either failing to detect the front sensor or receiving an alarm signal from the front sensor, which then triggers the alarm. The solution is to inspect the sensor that triggered the alarm and check the vehicle's wiring. Below is an introduction to car alarm systems: 1. Function: A car alarm is an alarm device installed in a vehicle. If someone hits, impacts, or moves the car, the sensor sends a signal to the controller indicating the intensity of the vibration. Depending on the vibration intensity, the controller will emit a warning sound or activate a full alarm. This serves to deter thieves and alert the owner. 2. Development: From the 1990s to the present, car alarms have developed rapidly and are widely used. As car alarm technology has matured, cost control is no longer an issue, and car alarms have become essential equipment for every car owner. In the next decade, it is believed that car alarm systems will incorporate more advanced technologies. In-vehicle GPS receivers have opened up vast possibilities in the security field. If the receiver is connected to the alarm system controller, it can report the vehicle's location to the owner or the police at any time.
