Soft brakes are closely related to the quality and performance of the brake fluid, as well as whether the brake fluid replacement operation was performed correctly. There are many complex reasons for soft brakes. To resolve the issue, the specific cause of the soft brakes must be identified and the related faults fixed. Therefore, soft brakes after changing the brake fluid will not recover on their own, and you should promptly visit a repair facility for maintenance. The following are common reasons for soft brakes in cars: 1. Air entering the brake system during brake fluid replacement. Brake fluid is the medium that transmits braking force. If air enters the brake fluid lines, the brake fluid will not provide sufficient force under high pressure, resulting in soft brakes. 2. Long-term neglect of brake fluid replacement. If brake fluid is used for an extended period, the accumulation of moisture and impurities inside will continuously increase, affecting the normal transmission of braking force. Therefore, regular brake fluid replacement is necessary to solve the issue of soft brakes. 3. Brake fluid leakage. Brake fluid is the primary medium for transmitting braking force. If there is a leak, the effectiveness of the braking force transmission will be compromised, leading to soft brakes. You can visit a 4S shop or a certified repair shop for inspection and repair.

What is the tire pressure for the front and rear tires of a sedan?

The front tire pressure for a sedan is 2.2--2.3 bar, and the rear tire pressure is 2.4-2.5 bar. Tire usage tips: Before embarking on a high-speed or long-distance journey, it is essential to check the tire wear condition and tire pressure. In summer, special attention should be paid to tire pressure and temperature. If any abnormalities are detected, appropriate measures should be taken promptly. Regularly remove debris from the tire tread grooves and between dual tires to prevent sharp objects from damaging the tires, which could lead to air leakage or even tire blowouts. Tire maintenance: Regularly check the tire pressure to ensure it remains within the normal range. Additionally, perform periodic tire rotation to ensure even tire wear and routinely inspect the tire wear condition.

Does Audi Have a Streaming Rearview Mirror?

Audi has a streaming rearview mirror. Streaming Rearview Mirror: A streaming rearview mirror uses a rear-mounted camera to capture real-time footage of the area behind the vehicle and displays it on the central rearview mirror screen without loss or delay. Essentially, it provides a camera's perspective of the actual conditions behind the vehicle. Advantages of Streaming Rearview Mirrors: They offer a wider field of view and more intuitive visuals, significantly reducing blind spots and improving driving safety. The superior night vision capability of streaming cameras also plays a crucial role, enabling clear observation of traffic conditions behind the vehicle even during nighttime driving.

What is a Car Cover?

A car cover, commonly known as automotive clothing, is an outer protective garment made of canvas or other flexible and durable materials, tailored to the vehicle's dimensions. It serves as a protective accessory for cars, effectively safeguarding the paint and window glass. How to Install a Car Cover: Place the car cover on the roof and unfold it. First, cover the two side mirrors, then pull the front section down to the bottom of the bumper—the elastic band will automatically tighten. Next, pull the rear section to the bottom of the car's rear—the elastic band will also tighten automatically. In windy conditions, secure the four windproof straps to the four contour positions. How to Remove a Car Cover: First, lift the front and rear sections of the car cover, then remove the two mirror covers. Fold the car cover from front to back (or vice versa) on the roof. Once folded to approximately 30 cm in width, perform a lengthwise fold.

What is the Key Factor for a Car to Move?

The key factor for a car to move lies in the power system: Engine Oil Inspection: The inspection of engine oil mainly involves checking the oil level, which should be replaced every 5,000 kilometers or six months. When checking the oil, it is important to measure it after the oil temperature has risen. Transmission Oil Inspection: The inspection of transmission oil primarily focuses on the oil level and quality, which should be replaced every 20,000 kilometers or one year. Checking the transmission oil requires shifting gears first. Brake Fluid Inspection: The inspection of brake fluid is crucial as it directly affects the response of the brake pedal. Power Steering Fluid Inspection: For power steering fluid, only the oil level needs to be checked to ensure it is sufficient.
