How to Adjust Soft Brakes on Wuling Hongguang?
2 Answers
Wuling Hongguang soft brake adjustment method: It can be adjusted by slightly turning the screw on the small piston in the vacuum bag outward, but not too much, as excessive adjustment may cause brake locking. The brake, also known as the braking system, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of running locomotives, vehicles, other transportation tools, or machinery. The principle of braking is to fix a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and install corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base to generate braking torque under external force. The body dimensions of the Wuling Hongguang are 4305, 1680, and 1750 mm, with a wheelbase of 2720 mm. In terms of safety features, this vehicle is equipped with dual airbags, force-limiting seat belts, LED high-mounted brake lights, rear parking sensors, rear window heating and defrosting functions, automatic locking, remote key with an electronic anti-theft system, and automatic car-finding function, among other rich safety configurations.
Brothers driving Wuling Hongguang, I've encountered the issue of soft brakes quite a few times. Never take it lightly—if you notice the brake pedal has too much travel or feels weak when pressed, address it immediately. Common causes could be low brake fluid levels or air in the system, and worn brake pads might also lead to this spongy feeling. The fix isn’t too complicated: pop the hood and check the brake fluid reservoir—if the level is below the MIN line, top it up with the same type of fluid. If the brakes still feel mushy, you’ll need to bleed the system—get a helper to press the pedal while you loosen the bleeder screw until fluid comes out without bubbles. Don’t attempt DIY fixes if you lack the tools or electrical know-how; for safety, just head to a 4S shop—brake issues can escalate fast and risk accidents harming both car and people. Personally, I make it a habit to check the fluid reservoir every six months and keep the lines clear of debris—it saves a lot of hassle. Spending around 100 bucks on maintenance keeps your drives worry-free.
