Can You Still Drive with a Leaking Axle? The function of the axle is to transmit power. The axle, also known as the drive shaft, is the shaft that transmits torque between the transmission reducer and the drive wheel. There is a universal joint at each end, connected to the reducer gear and the inner ring of the hub bearing via splines on the universal joint. The roles of the axle are: 1. To transmit the reaction force and torque from the road surface to the frame through the leaf spring; 2. To act as a brake during vehicle movement. Axles can be divided into the following types based on their support structure: full-floating axle, three-quarter floating axle, and semi-floating axle. Symptoms of a damaged axle include: 1. The vehicle may pull to one side or experience severe shaking; 2. The wheel may detach; 3. Abnormal noises may occur while driving.

What is the mantra for short individuals in Subject 2?

Here is the mantra for short individuals in Subject 2: 1. Adjust the seat after getting in the car, ensuring the height and position are suitable: Adjust the rearview mirror to clearly see the ground behind the wheels; fasten the seatbelt and listen carefully to instructions and commands; identify the garage number and locate the side line at 1.5 meters; stop at the sensor line and ensure the garage direction is correct. 2. First find the garage when parking, and don’t confuse the left and right directions; look at the reverse mirror when shifting to reverse gear, and don’t stop the car after crossing the line twice; check the car body in the reverse mirror, and quickly turn the wheel back when the garage entrance is more than half passed; look back at the garage corner, and steer toward the wider side; check if the car is straight, ensuring both side lines are parallel. 3. Straighten the wheel after parallel parking, and make sure the number of steering wheel turns is correct; stop the car when it’s straight and the reverse mirror crosses the line; pause in the garage for three seconds, and carefully consider left and right when exiting; maintain a distance of 30 cm for parallel parking, which is most suitable.

Is it necessary to change the engine oil within a year?

It is not mandatory to change the engine oil if it has been over a year, and you can still drive temporarily. However, it is necessary to promptly visit a qualified maintenance facility to replace the engine oil and oil filter to prevent the decline in the lubrication, cooling, sealing, and cleaning functions of the oil, which could cause engine damage. Below are specific details about the functions of engine oil: 1. Lubrication: Dry friction between metal surfaces can cause damage to the metal parts, so the lubricating effect of engine oil is needed for protection. With the lubrication of engine oil, metal parts do not come into direct contact but float on the lubricating oil. This is commonly referred to as the 'oil film bearing' effect. 2. Cleaning: After prolonged operation, the engine may inevitably shed metal burrs due to friction. If these burrs fall off, they could threaten other metal surfaces. Therefore, the flushing action of the engine oil is necessary to 'carry away' these metal burrs. 3. Cooling: The interior of the engine operates at high temperatures, with the cylinders relying on the cooling system for cooling. However, certain internal components cannot rely on the cooling system and instead depend on the circulation of engine oil to dissipate heat. 4. Rust prevention: Additionally, engine oil isolates metal surfaces from the air, ensuring that the internal metals of the engine do not oxidize or rust.

What does the Audi warning on the dashboard mean?

Audi warning on the dashboard means rear-end collision warning. Under system-available conditions, the front pre-sense system issues warnings and applies corresponding braking based on the situation and vehicle speed when there is a risk of collision with stationary, temporarily stopped, or moving vehicles or pedestrians. If not recognized, the front pre-sense system will not respond. Below is an introduction to the pre-sense system: 1. Working principle: The pre-sense system uses radar sensor data to calculate the probability of an accident. Within the system's operable range, it can detect collision risks with vehicles or pedestrians. In such cases, the system warns the driver through visual and audible signals, and may also apply brake jolts. If necessary, it may apply partial or full braking to reduce impact speed or avoid a potential collision. In vehicles equipped with the basic version of the pre-sense system, the front seat belts are additionally tensioned in reverse as needed. Even after turning off the adaptive cruise control system, the Audi front pre-sense system remains active. 2. Function: The pre-sense system issues a severe warning through a brake jolt when facing a collision risk with a vehicle. If the driver does not respond to this emergency warning, the front pre-sense system will progressively increase braking force within system-allowed limits, thereby reducing speed in case of a potential collision. 3. Do not overly rely on the pre-sense system: The front pre-sense system cannot exceed physical limits. It is an auxiliary system and cannot prevent collisions under all circumstances. The driver must always intervene and brake in time. Do not take risks while driving just because this system improves safety, as this could lead to accidents.
