Steering wheel becoming heavier is most commonly caused by dirty power steering fluid. Like other automotive fluids, power steering fluid also requires periodic replacement. Below is relevant information about hydraulic steering gears: 1. Structure: The hydraulic steering gear is used to control the action of the steering hydraulic cylinder to achieve hydraulic steering; when the steering hydraulic pump stops supplying oil, it enables manual steering. The hydraulic steering gear is fixed to the steering bracket with screws and consists of a steering valve and a cycloidal gear motor. 2. Function: The hydraulic steering gear serves to amplify the force from the steering wheel's transmission mechanism and change the direction of force transmission. It is widely used in low-speed, heavy-duty vehicles such as agricultural machinery, marine equipment, garden machinery, road maintenance equipment, forestry machinery, construction machinery, and mining machinery. It allows drivers to achieve greater steering control with minimal effort, offering safe and reliable performance along with easy and flexible operation.

Where can I go to repair my Suzuki car if it breaks down?

Suzuki cars can be repaired at 4S stores or specialized auto quick repair shops. Repair at 4S stores: 4S stores are sales outlets that integrate automobile sales, maintenance, parts, and information services. 4S stores are usually authorized dealers by manufacturers and have close ties with various manufacturers, making it easy to obtain original parts with relatively guaranteed quality. 4S stores are expensive but safe. Repair at quick repair shops: The difference between quick repair shops and 4S stores in routine maintenance is not significant. The technical level of quick repair shop technicians in inspection and repair is often higher than that of 4S store technicians. The maintenance cost is also lower, but the most direct risk brought by the low price is that the quality of parts cannot be guaranteed.

How often should the transmission fluid of Volkswagen Magotan be changed?

The replacement cycle for Volkswagen Magotan transmission fluid is 60,000 kilometers. Gravity method for changing transmission fluid: The principle is the same as changing engine oil. Loosen the bolt of the oil pan and let the transmission fluid flow out by gravity. This method is the simplest, but it cannot completely drain the transmission fluid, as some fluid remains due to mechanical structures with dead corners like recesses and pits. Machine circulation method for changing transmission fluid: First, add new transmission fluid into the circulation machine, then connect the machine to the transmission fluid circuit interface. The new transmission fluid pushes out the old fluid under pressure, resulting in a cleaner fluid circuit. The more new transmission fluid used in the circulation machine, the more thoroughly the old fluid is expelled. The machine circulation method typically uses about 10-15L of fluid per change. A complete transmission fluid change using the circulation machine takes approximately 1 hour.

How to Deal with Asphalt Splashed on the Car?

If it's not very severe, you can directly rinse it off with high-pressure water. For difficult-to-clean parts, repeated washing may be necessary. If the asphalt is severe, it is recommended to purchase a specialized "Tar Cleaner." Here are some tips on cleaning asphalt: 1. Cleaning Formula: To remove stains like paint or asphalt, you can use a 10-20% ammonia solution (you can also add half the amount of turpentine to the ammonia) or soak in a 2% borax solution, then wash after dissolution. Another method is to soak in benzene or toluene, dissolve, and then wash. 2. Precautions: If accidentally contacted with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention; if accidentally ingested, induce vomiting immediately and seek medical attention. Avoid exposure to sunlight, impact, puncturing, or burning the container.
