Brake discs generally need to be replaced when the vehicle has traveled 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. Below is relevant information about automotive brake discs: 1. Introduction: A brake disc, simply put, is a round disc. The brake caliper clamps the brake disc to generate braking force. When the brakes are applied, the brake disc is clamped to slow down or stop the vehicle. Brake discs offer excellent braking performance and are easier to maintain compared to drum brakes. 2. Structure: Disc brake discs are divided into solid discs (single-piece discs) and vented discs (two-piece discs). Solid discs are straightforward to understand—they are solid. Vented discs, as the name suggests, have a ventilation function. Externally, vented discs have numerous holes around the circumference leading to the center, known as vents.

Can the first maintenance at three months be postponed for a few days?

It is not advisable to postpone the first maintenance of a car. Below is some information regarding the first maintenance of a car: 1. The first maintenance of a car refers to its initial service, which is typically scheduled at 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, with the count starting from the date of vehicle delivery. 2. There are two indicators for the first maintenance: mileage and time. Whichever comes first will determine the maintenance schedule. Delaying the first maintenance means forfeiting your warranty rights, and if overdue, it will not just be a matter of paying out of pocket. 3. Before the first maintenance, it is advisable to note any issues with your car and inform the service staff at the 4S shop. Before servicing, refer to the user manual to understand the general scope of the maintenance. Most first maintenance services involve changing the engine oil and oil filter.

What is the solution for a locked steering wheel?

The solution for a locked steering wheel is: insert the key and gently turn the steering wheel clockwise or counterclockwise. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, and airplanes. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. It mainly consists of a skeleton, foam, and the main driver's airbag. The working principle of a steering wheel lock: The steering wheel lock is a mechanical lock composed of a lock handle, lock base, and lock rod. Its shell is installed on the lock handle, and one end of the lock handle is equipped with a lock rod. When in use, the positioning fork and hook of the steering wheel lock are clamped onto the steering wheel rim to restrict the rotation of the steering wheel, achieving an anti-theft effect.

What is the replacement method for auto start-stop batteries?

The replacement method for auto start-stop batteries is: 1. Prepare a backup battery for jump-start connection to prevent vehicle circuit power failure; 2. Remove the old battery and replace it with a new one. The characteristics of auto start-stop are: 1. The engine can automatically shut off, reducing fuel consumption and emissions; 2. After the engine shuts off, the power supply can replace the pulley to provide operating power for the engine cooling fan and in-car air conditioning. Precautions for using auto start-stop are: 1. Quickly shift to P gear and release the brake when the engine stops; 2. Reduce current consumption; 3. Do not repeatedly press the brake when the engine is off; 4. Let the engine speed drop to zero, engage the starter gear before restarting; 5. Do not activate the auto start-stop system during low-speed parking or when using air conditioning.

What is the working principle of continuously variable transmission?

The working principle of continuously variable transmission is: using a hydraulic torque converter to generate torques of different strengths, thereby transmitting torque to achieve continuously variable transmission. Types of continuously variable transmissions: 1. Mechanical: There are various forms, the most common being the cone-block metal V-belt type transmission, used in automobiles; 2. Hydraulic transmission type: used in engineering vehicles and agricultural machinery; 3. Electric type: used in electric vehicles. Starting devices for automotive continuously variable transmissions include: 1. Electromagnetic clutch type: large in mass and size, with low thermal load capacity; 2. Electronically controlled wet friction plate type: small in structural size, fast in response, and with low energy loss; 3. Hydraulic torque converter type: large starting torque, good hill-start performance, easy driving, good driving performance, and capable of reducing vibration and impact caused by uneven engine torque.
