Brake pads do not need to be replaced together front and rear. They should be replaced when the thickness is less than 0.5cm. Brake pads play a crucial role in braking and are composed of a steel plate, adhesive heat insulation layer, and friction block. The steel plate is coated to prevent rust, and the coating process is monitored using a furnace temperature tracker to ensure quality by detecting temperature distribution. Steps for replacing brake pads: 1. Release the handbrake and loosen the hub screws of the wheel needing replacement. Use a jack to lift the car and remove the tire. 2. Remove the tire to expose the brake caliper and disc. Apply lubricant to loosen the screws or nuts if necessary. 3. Hang the brake caliper with a rope and remove the old brake pads. 4. Open the hood and unscrew the cap of the brake fluid reservoir. 5. Install the new brake pads in the correct position.

How to Properly Turn on the Car Air Conditioner in Winter?

Winter proper way to turn on the car air conditioner is: 1. Start the engine for preheating; 2. Turn on the heater when the engine coolant temperature reaches above 40°C; 3. Turn on the external circulation to expel cold air from the cabin; 4. Switch to internal circulation. The working principle of car air conditioning heating is: When the engine coolant becomes sufficiently hot, the refrigerant gas enters the condenser where its pressure and temperature decrease, causing the refrigerant gas to condense into liquid and release heat. Car air conditioning maintenance methods include: 1. Don't set the temperature too low; 2. Control the air outlet direction; 3. Avoid prolonged use; 4. Appropriately use high fan speed; 5. Turn off the AC when driving at low speeds.

How to Cancel the Buick Pedestrian Protection System?

Buick's pedestrian protection system cannot be turned off. The pedestrian protection system utilizes hood pop-up technology, which causes the engine to instantly rise during a collision, ensuring that the human body does not hit the hard car shell but instead contacts a soft and smooth surface, providing a certain level of protection. It can promptly notify the driver before an accident occurs, helping to avoid collisions or reduce injuries. The automotive pedestrian protection system includes safety systems, hazard warning systems, collision avoidance systems, etc., involving sensor technology, communication technology, information display technology, and driving state monitoring technology.
