After replacing tires, the recommended mileage is approximately 60,000-80,000 kilometers, but the actual distance may vary depending on local road conditions and specific usage. Tires should be replaced under the following circumstances: Wear limit: When the tire wear reaches the wear limit indicator. There are small triangular patterns along the sidewall and the edge of the tread. Following any of these triangles to the tread pattern, you will find small raised bars within the grooves that are lower than the normal tread pattern - these are the safety indicators. If the tread wears down to this level, the tire should be replaced. Aging condition: Check the aging condition of the tire. If there are many cracks but they don't affect normal use, the tire can continue to be used. However, if the crack depth exceeds 3 millimeters, replacement is necessary. Tread deformation or bead damage: Tires that have been driven while flat, causing sidewall damage from being compressed, or tires that have been chemically corroded should not continue to be used. Number of repairs: If a tire has been repaired more than three times, it needs to be replaced with a new one.

As a veteran driver with 20 years of experience, I believe how many kilometers new tires can last depends on your driving habits and road conditions. Generally speaking, good quality tires can run about 50,000 to 70,000 kilometers. For example, the Bridgestone tires I replaced last time lasted about 60,000 kilometers before they were worn out. If you speed on highways every day or frequently carry heavy loads, the wear will be much faster, possibly only lasting a little over 40,000 kilometers. Driving steadily in the city can extend their lifespan. I make it a habit to check tire pressure every 5,000 kilometers—too high or too low both damage the tires. I also rotate the tire positions regularly to avoid uneven wear. With these practices, many tires can last over 80,000 kilometers, saving you from frequent replacements. Remember to avoid sudden braking and sharp turns, as these wear out the tread faster, compromising safety and forcing you to replace them sooner. In short, the lifespan of new tires isn't a fixed number—proper maintenance can make them last longer, giving you peace of mind while driving.

What Causes the ABS Light to Illuminate in a Jaguar?

ABS light illumination can occur in various states, with different causes and solutions for each state, as detailed below: State 1: ABS warning light remains constantly lit (most common). Cause 1: The ABS wheel speed sensor's sensing area is covered by dirt, mud, or other contaminants, affecting the sensor's ability to detect the corresponding speed signal. This prevents the ABS control unit from determining the vehicle speed and wheel slip rate, thus failing to issue appropriate commands to regulate braking. Solution: Clean the contaminants from the wheel speed sensor and adjust the gap between the sensor and the signal ring to restore normal operation. Cause 2: Poor signal transmission due to loose system wiring connections or poor contact in the ABS relay, leading to system malfunction. Solution: Inspect wiring connections and reconnect any loose parts. State 2: ABS warning light intermittently illuminates but turns off during acceleration. Cause: When multiple electrical components are in use, the battery voltage drops below 10.5V. As engine speed increases, voltage rises, and the ABS light turns off. This may also occur due to insufficient power supply voltage to the ABS system, such as poor terminal contact or grounding issues. Solution: Check the battery's specific gravity; inspect the charging system; examine the power supply (e.g., voltage relay or poor power contact). State 3: ABS warning light remains lit after engine startup until the engine is turned off (IGFF). Cause: Poor grounding contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body; poor electrical connector contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body; ABS control unit malfunction. Solution: Loosen and then retighten the grounding screw on the hydraulic valve body, cleaning the contact surface if necessary; check for enlarged connector gaps; replace the ABS or ABS/ASR control unit. State 4: ABS warning light illuminates during high-speed driving. Cause: During high-speed driving, the ABS control unit detects a significant discrepancy between rear and front wheel speed signals; incorrect tire or wheel rim specifications. Solution: Refer to the vehicle's specified tire and wheel rim specifications, typically listed on the fuel tank cap sticker. State 5: ABS warning light intermittently illuminates. Cause: Improper adjustment of the brake light switch; poor internal contact in the brake light. Solution: With the engine running, press the brake pedal and manually push the brake switch linkage fully downward, then release the pedal to complete self-positioning; replace the brake light switch if necessary. If the ABS warning light is illuminated, it is advisable not to continue driving. An illuminated ABS light indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's anti-lock braking system. During emergency braking, if the wheels lock up, the vehicle may skid uncontrollably, preventing the driver from slowing down or adjusting the vehicle's trajectory, posing significant safety risks.
