Tire with a small tear needs to be assessed based on the location of the tear. If it's on the tread and there's no air leakage, it can continue to be used normally without replacement. If there is air leakage, it should be repaired before further use. If the tear is on the tire sidewall, check if the cord ply is damaged. If the cord ply is intact, short-distance driving in the city is possible. If the cord ply is damaged, the tire should be replaced immediately. Below are the handling methods for a damaged car tire: 1. If the tire is damaged while driving: Pull over immediately to inspect the tire. If the tire pressure drops rapidly, do not continue driving; replace it with the spare tire and drive to the nearest repair shop. 2. If the air leakage is slow, use a car air pump to replenish the tire pressure, then drive at low speed to a repair shop. Never continue using the tire with severely low pressure as it poses significant safety risks, can further damage the tire, and may even harm the wheel rim.

Why does the throttle not respond when the engine is warm but works when cold?

The reason why the throttle does not respond when the engine is warm but works when cold is due to a malfunction in the car's electronic throttle system. Below is an introduction to the related content: 1. Solution: If the car's electronic throttle is malfunctioning, it is necessary to promptly visit the car's 4S store or a repair shop to inspect and repair the electronic throttle, which can resolve the issue of the throttle not responding when the engine is warm. 2. Sensor reason: If the throttle position sensor is too dirty or the voltage is unbalanced, it can lead to electronic throttle failure, resulting in the situation where the throttle is pressed to the floor but the speed does not increase. If the fault is not related to the electronic throttle, then the issue may lie in the engine's intake, fuel system, or ignition system. Any component failure or abnormality in one of these three systems could cause the situation where the car's throttle is pressed to the floor but the RPM does not increase.
