The service life of the front brake pads is 30,000-50,000 kilometers, and the rear brake pads can last 120,000-150,000 kilometers. Methods for checking brake pads: 1. Check the thickness: The thickness of a new brake pad is generally about 1.5cm, and it will gradually wear thinner with use. When the thickness is visually observed to be only about 1/3 of the original (approximately 0.5cm), the owner should increase the frequency of self-inspection and be ready to replace them at any time. Due to the wheel design of some models, visual inspection is not possible, and the tires need to be removed to complete the check. It is recommended to regularly inspect the wear condition of the brake pads to see if they are still usable, and not to rely solely on the indicator light. 2. Listen for sounds: If there is abnormal noise when lightly braking, the brake pads must be replaced immediately. 3. Feel the pedal: If you feel that the brake pedal requires more effort, often needing to press it deeper to achieve the previous braking effect, or if you notice that the pedal position is significantly lower during emergency braking, it may indicate that the brake pads have basically lost their friction and must be replaced at this time.

What Causes Oil Pressure Sensor Leakage?

Here are the specific reasons for oil pressure sensor leakage: 1. Insufficient engine oil level: This leads to inadequate or no lubrication in the system, resulting in low oil pressure. 2. Dirty or viscous oil: Causes the oil pump to fail in effectively drawing in and pumping out oil, leading to low or no oil pressure. 3. Overly thin oil or high engine temperature: Thins the oil, allowing it to leak through the engine's friction gaps, causing low oil pressure. 4. Weak pressure relief valve spring: Or issues like sticking or damaged steel balls can impair the valve's function, leading to decreased engine oil pressure.

What is the difference between domestic Brembo and imported Brembo?

Red Brembo brake pads are domestically produced, while black Brembo brake pads are imported. Here are some details about new brake pads: 1. Replacement conditions: Brake pads are critical safety components in the braking system. New brake pads are approximately 1.5 cm thick and need to be replaced when worn down to 3-5 mm. 2. Function: Brake pads, also known as brake linings, are the most crucial safety components in a vehicle's braking system. The effectiveness of the entire braking system largely depends on the brake pads, making high-quality brake pads essential for the safety of both the driver and the vehicle.

What is the general idle speed of a car?

The general idle speed of a car is between 550 and 800 revolutions per minute. When the engine is running, if the accelerator pedal is completely released, the engine enters the idle state. During idle speed adjustment, the RPM should not fluctuate abruptly, as this can cause premature wear to the engine. It is recommended to have the idle speed adjusted at an automotive repair facility. Idle speed can be categorized into normal idle and driving idle. Engine maintenance methods include: 1. Using high-quality engine oil; 2. Using qualified coolant; 3. Regularly cleaning the radiator scale; 4. Periodically removing carbon deposits from the car; 5. Timely replacement of the car's three filters (air, oil, and fuel filters); 6. Maintaining a reasonable engine speed.
