You do not need to replace the wheel hub when changing tires. As long as the wheel hub is not damaged, you only need to replace the tire with the same size and specifications as the original factory tires. The functions of tires are: 1. To transmit driving force, braking force, and steering force to achieve vehicle operation; 2. To support the vehicle load; 3. To reduce and absorb vibrations and impacts during driving, avoiding severe vibrations that could damage vehicle components. Tire maintenance methods include: 1. Regularly cleaning stones from the tire treads; 2. Minimizing exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Promptly checking tire pressure; 4. Paying attention to suspension maintenance; 5. Regularly inspecting front wheel alignment; 6. Adopting careful driving habits, choosing smooth road surfaces, avoiding objects that could puncture or scratch tires, and steering clear of chemical spills that could corrode tires.

Does the Tayron's automatic wipers turn on automatically?

The Tayron's automatic wipers turn on automatically when the vehicle detects an increase in rainwater. Here are some precautions for using the wipers: 1. Maintain cleanliness: If streaks appear on the windshield, the wiper blades may be dirty. Dip a towel in alcohol and wipe along the edge of the wiper blade to remove accumulated dirt, debris, and dead leaves. Clean the wiper blades once a month to keep them in good condition. 2. Check the rubber: If the wipers make a harsh noise while working, the rubber may be aging or cracked. If the wear is not severe, you can use sandpaper to smooth out rough spots on the surface. 3. Avoid sunlight: A ventilated and shady place is suitable for long-term parking of the car. During the hot summer season, many vehicles are exposed to the sun. It's important to know that high temperatures are the enemy of rubber materials. Therefore, this will accelerate the aging of the wiper blades.

What is the solution for the whining noise from the Sagitar's air conditioner?

If the noise is caused by the car's air conditioning compressor, it is necessary to have the air conditioning compressor repaired at a 4S shop. If the noise is caused by the compressor's electromagnetic clutch, the bearing inside the electromagnetic clutch needs to be replaced. Here is a related introduction to the noise from the Sagitar's air conditioner: 1. Noise from the car's air conditioning compressor: As a high-speed rotating component, the air conditioning compressor has a relatively high probability of failure, with noise being a common issue. There are many reasons for compressor noise, such as damage to the compressor's electromagnetic clutch or severe internal wear in the compressor. 2. The electromagnetic clutch of the compressor is a common source of noise. The compressor often operates under high load, shifting from low to high speeds, which places high demands on the electromagnetic clutch. Additionally, the electromagnetic clutch is usually installed close to the ground and frequently exposed to rain and dirt. When the bearing inside the electromagnetic clutch is damaged, it will produce noise.

What causes the loud bang when a car runs over a stone?

When a car runs over a stone and makes a loud bang, it could be due to the stone hitting the chassis, the sound coming from the suspension's lower control arm, or the shock absorber. If this happens, it is recommended to have the chassis inspected. More details are as follows: 1. Shock Absorber: The shock absorber in a vehicle is a wear-and-tear part. Most vehicle shock absorbers can last a long time, but their performance degrades over time. If you run over a large stone and hear a very loud noise, it might be coming from the shock absorber. 2. Oil Leakage: Some vehicle shock absorbers may develop oil leaks over time. If a shock absorber is leaking, it needs to be replaced. When replacing shock absorbers, it is recommended to replace all four at once. If only one shock absorber is leaking, it indicates that the other three are likely to start leaking soon, so it is advisable to replace all four shock absorbers together.
