Car tires now only have outer tires without inner tubes, commonly known as tubeless tires. The edge of the outer tire is an airtight layer, installed on the hub. After inflation, the tire is pressed onto the hub by air pressure. Benefits of car tires without inner tubes: 1. Better airtightness, ensuring long-term air retention; 2. Lower operating temperature, longer service life; 3. Simple structure, lightweight, beneficial for high-speed driving. Reasons why car tires do not have inner tubes: 1. Poor heat dissipation inside inner tubes, which shortens tire lifespan; 2. The surface of tubeless tires is rubber, effectively improving sealing force on wounds; 3. Tubeless tires have high elasticity and wear resistance, with good adhesion.

What to Do When the Car Thermometer Light Comes On?

When the car thermometer light comes on, you should stop the car and open the hood to allow the engine to cool down. The light indicates that the coolant temperature is too high. The main function of the car thermometer is to accurately measure and display the internal temperature of the vehicle, enabling continuous monitoring to effectively prevent damage to the car under freezing conditions. With the continuous advancement of technology, modern car thermometers are no longer limited to a single measurement function. Some brands produce car thermometers that can simultaneously measure both the internal and external temperatures of the vehicle. Equipped with warning lights and icons, they can alert users to check whether the battery voltage is normal, ensuring the battery remains in good condition.

What is the reason for the wrench indicator light to come on in a car?

When the wrench indicator light comes on, it serves as a reminder for the car owner to perform vehicle maintenance. Below are the relevant details about car maintenance: Minor Maintenance: Minor maintenance generally refers to the routine maintenance tasks performed at intervals specified by the manufacturer in terms of time or mileage to ensure vehicle performance. It mainly includes changing the engine oil and oil filter. The timing of minor maintenance depends on the effective duration or mileage of the engine oil and oil filter used. Major Maintenance: Major maintenance refers to the routine maintenance performed at intervals specified by the manufacturer, which includes changing the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter.

Can Overfilling the Fuel Tank Damage the Fuel Gauge?

Overfilling the fuel tank can damage the fuel gauge. Filling the tank too full may cause the fuel float and sensor to malfunction, leading to inaccurate fuel gauge readings. The fuel gauge consists of a voltage regulator, fuel indicator, and fuel level sensor. The low fuel warning system alerts the driver when the fuel level drops below a specified threshold, prompting immediate attention. Precautions for using the fuel gauge include: 1. Refuel before the warning light comes on, as insufficient fuel can impair the fuel pump's operation and shorten its lifespan; 2. Expect minor deviations in readings, such as when replacing the battery or fuel filter, where the gauge may show a lower level upon restarting due to pressure release in the tank, which is normal.

What is the capacity of a car fuel tank?

The fuel tank capacity varies among different car models. Generally, the fuel tank capacity of family sedans ranges between 35 to 55 liters, while mid-size sedans and mid-size SUVs typically have a capacity between 55 to 70 liters. Large SUVs can have fuel tanks with a capacity of up to 100 liters. The fuel tank capacity usually refers to the maximum capacity as announced by the car manufacturer. The fuel tank capacity is a measure of a car's ability to carry gasoline. A larger fuel tank capacity indicates a longer driving range for the car, as well as stronger power, which can reduce the frequency of refueling. When refueling, it is advisable not to fill the tank completely, as overfilling (e.g., when the fuel nozzle automatically stops) can increase the car's weight unnecessarily.

What Causes the Power Steering Warning Light to Illuminate?

The reason the power steering warning light illuminates is due to a malfunction in the power steering system. Power steering systems are categorized into electro-hydraulic power steering systems, mechanical hydraulic power steering systems, and electric power steering systems. The working principle of a car's power steering system is as follows: after the drive wheel rotates the rotor, the vanes expand under centrifugal force and form a working chamber together with the stator, rotor, and oil distribution plate. High-pressure oil discharged from the pressure plate enters the steering gear through the steering oil pipe, providing steering assistance. Common faults in a car's power steering system include: 1. Abnormal noises during steering; 2. Steering gear oil leakage; 3. Difficulty in returning the steering wheel to its original position.
