What Causes the Rattling Noise from the Right Front Wheel When Driving Over Bumps?

Introduction to the causes of abnormal noises from the front wheels when driving over bumpy roads: 1. Issue with the lower control arm: Solution: Replace it. 2. Failure of the shock absorber assembly: Solution: Replace it. 3. Damage to the steering ball joint: Inspection method: Kick the tire lightly to check for abnormal noises. 4. Worn-out stabilizer bar bushings: The stabilizer bar, also known as the anti-roll bar or sway bar, has two clips that contain the bushings. Exposure to cold in winter, heat in summer, along with dirt and dust, causes the bushings to harden over time. This leads to inconsistent heights of the left and right wheels when driving over uneven surfaces, resulting in creaking noises. 5. Problem with the engine guard: Noise caused by friction between the engine guard and the chassis: This could be due to loose screws on the engine guard. 6. Loose nuts on the top of the shock absorber.

Does Skipping Questions in Subject 1 Count as Wrong Answers?

Skipping questions in Subject 1 does not count as wrong answers. During the exam, if you encounter a question you don't know, you can skip it and come back to answer it later after completing all other questions, as long as you don't click the submit button. Since it's common to feel nervous or encounter unfamiliar questions during the exam, you can confidently skip such questions and move on to the next one. These unanswered questions can be revisited at the end. As long as you stay within the exam time limit and don't click the submit button, it's perfectly fine. However, it's worth noting that the exam system for Subject 1 differs slightly from the practice system we're used to. During the Subject 1 exam, the system will immediately notify you if you answer a question incorrectly. If you make more than 10 mistakes, the system will judge you as failing. Subject 1 consists of 100 questions. According to the regulations on the application and use of motor vehicle driver's licenses, the exam content includes: basic driving theory, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The exam format for Subject 1 is computer-based, and a score of 90 or above is required to pass. Therefore, even if you skip questions, you cannot make more than 10 mistakes.
