A set of foot brake rear brake pads consists of 4 pieces, while the hand brake has a separate set of 2 pieces. Function of Brake Pads: Brake pads, as the name suggests, are used for braking. In a car's braking system, brake pads are the most critical safety components. The effectiveness of all braking actions is decisively determined by the brake pads. Good quality brake pads act as protectors for both the driver and the vehicle. Structure of Brake Pads: Brake pads are generally composed of a steel plate, an adhesive heat insulation layer, and a friction block. The steel plate is coated to prevent rust, and the coating process is monitored using an SMT-4 oven temperature tracker to ensure the temperature distribution during coating meets quality standards. The heat insulation layer is made of non-heat-conductive materials, designed to insulate heat.

What is the difference between V-rated and H-rated tires?

Here are the differences between V-rated and H-rated tires and related information about tire speed ratings: 1. Main differences between V-rated and H-rated tires: (1) Different speed ratings: H indicates a maximum safe speed of 210 kilometers per hour; V indicates a maximum safe speed of 240 kilometers per hour. (2) Different performance: The higher speed-rated V tire represents stronger tire performance. It's important to know that when tires roll at high speeds, they generate heat due to squeezing and deformation, so the higher-rated V tire naturally has better resistance. 2. Speed ratings: The letters corresponding to tire speed ratings represent the certified speed grades of tires from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, U, H, V, W, Y, Z are the letters corresponding to tire speed ratings. Among them, J-Y represent 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, 240, 270, 300 kilometers per hour, while Z represents speeds above 240 kilometers per hour.

Why Does Manual Gear Shifting Feel Stiff and Jerky?

Reasons for stiff and jerky manual gear shifting: 1. Rusty transmission shaft: The clutch driven disc cannot move normally and has poor return, preventing the gear from engaging along the normal trajectory; 2. Clutch malfunction: Insufficient clutch separation formation, leading to incomplete clutch separation and inability to engage gears; 3. Poor clutch separation: The transmission plate of the pressure plate assembly is deformed for some reason, resulting in poor separation; 4. Transmission oil is too old or insufficient; 5. Cold gear shifting: Makes the gear feel stiff, especially in cold temperatures where the viscosity of the gear oil in the transmission cannot reach the ideal state, naturally resulting in poor lubrication.

How to Adjust Car Headlights for Focused Beam?

Due to inherent design issues or various factors during modification, LED headlights may experience severe light scattering and lack of focus. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the beam angle to meet the driver's safety requirements. The adjustment steps are as follows: 1. First, park the car 7.6 meters away from a wall, turn on the headlights, and then adjust the beam position based on the light pattern on the wall. Some vehicle models come with an integrated headlight height adjustment knob inside the car. If this feature is available, set the headlight height adjustment knob to the "0" position before adjusting the headlights. 2. Next, mark reference lines on the wall. Measure the distance from the center of the low beam to the vehicle's central axis, the distance from the center of the high beam to the vehicle's central axis, and the distance from the center of the low beam to the ground beforehand. 3. Finally, adjust the corresponding adjustment knobs located at the back of the headlights to fine-tune the beam position. The specific parts to adjust and the tools required may vary depending on the vehicle model. Before making adjustments, project the headlights onto the wall and observe whether the beam is misaligned, too high, or too low.

Does the New Santana Lack a Rear Bumper Beam?

The New Santana is only equipped with a front anti-collision steel beam and does not have a rear bumper beam. Below is relevant information about the New Santana: 1. Exterior: The exterior completely abandons the boxy styling of the 1970s seen in the old Santana, replacing it with a more modern and stylish dynamic design, which now fully adopts the latest appearance of the Volkswagen family. The family-style front-end design makes it difficult to distinguish between Volkswagen's compact models, blurring the lines between these vehicles for many people. 2. Configuration: The New Santana is powered by 1.4L and 1.6L engines, codenamed EA211. This series of engines will include two displacements, with the 1.4L engine delivering a maximum power of 66kW and the 1.6L engine offering a maximum power of 81kW, both featuring a lighter all-aluminum structure. The transmission remains the same as the POLO, with a 5-speed manual and a 6-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. The addition of the 6AT gives this not-so-high-end car better high-speed performance.

Should You Press the Clutch or Brake When Going Down a Steep Slope?

When going downhill, you should press the brake. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Precautions for downhill driving: When going downhill, you should press the brake and shift to a lower gear, and try to avoid pressing the clutch continuously. For manual transmission vehicles, you should not shift to neutral or press the clutch when going downhill; instead, lightly apply the brake to control the speed. 2. Reasons for using the foot brake: When coasting in neutral, relying solely on the foot brake will cause the front brake discs to overheat, significantly reducing their effectiveness. Moreover, if the speed is too high, coasting in neutral makes it difficult to control the vehicle's speed, so shifting to neutral when going downhill poses a high risk.

What Causes the Sizzling Sound When the Car Air Conditioner is Turned On?

When the car air conditioner is turned on, it may produce a squeaking sound, which could be due to a loose or slipping belt of the car air conditioner; or a malfunction in the car's compressor; or foreign objects inside the blower and ventilation ducts. If you are not familiar with disassembly and assembly steps, it is best to go to a 4S shop for repair. Solutions for the squeaking sound when the air conditioner is on: 1. Belt slipping: The air conditioner pulley and belt slip, producing a sharp friction sound during the slipping process. Check if there is oil on the belt. If oil causes the belt to slip, clean it thoroughly. If not, adjust the compressor's position bolt to tighten the belt, which can increase friction. 2. Belt too loose: If the belt is too loose and causes abnormal noise, you can press the belt's tension by hand. If it's too loose, tighten it. If the belt has been used for too long, it needs to be replaced. 3. Tensioner pulley damage: If the belt's tensioner pulley is damaged, it can also cause abnormal noise, requiring replacement of a new tensioner pulley. 4. Clutch slipping: Abnormal noise caused by the compressor clutch slipping or compressor bearings requires disassembly to check the cause. 5. Foreign objects in ventilation ducts: Foreign objects entering the blower and ventilation ducts can also produce abnormal noise, requiring cleaning of the blower and ventilation ducts.
