Shock absorber noise is caused by oil leakage or aging of the top mount thrust bearing. Below are the specific reasons for shock absorber noise: Shock absorber oil leakage: When the shock absorber leaks oil, the inside of the shock tube cannot be effectively lubricated, resulting in significant friction noise during operation. Aging of the top mount thrust bearing: The thrust bearing is located in the engine compartment. Open the hood and press down on the body to listen if the noise is coming from the top of the shock absorber. If so, it is likely due to aging of the thrust bearing. If the shock absorber spring is deformed or broken, the only solution is to replace the entire shock absorber spring.

What Does Tire Rotation Mean?

It refers to the uneven wear patterns between front and rear tires. Since front tires bear more pressure and steering forces than rear tires, it's recommended to swap the left front tire with the right rear tire, and the right front tire with the left rear tire every approximately 10,000 kilometers. This practice increases tread friction with the road surface and improves traction. Additional Information: 1. Rotation Interval: Depending on different driving habits and routes, refer to the vehicle's maintenance manual for regular tire rotation. The rotation interval is generally 10,000km for new cars, then every 5,000km to 10,000km thereafter. 2. Extending Tire Life: Develop a habit of regularly checking tire pressure. Proper inflation is crucial for extending tire lifespan - consistently overinflating by 20% reduces tire life by 10%, while consistently underinflating by 30% decreases tire life by 52%. 3. Consistent Pressure: Tire pressure is vital for tire longevity. Underinflation causes increased tire deformation, sidewall cracks, excessive heat buildup, rubber deterioration, and ply fatigue/fracture.

When driving on narrow two-lane roads, such as rural or mountain roads, overtaking often requires borrowing the opposite lane. In such cases, it is advisable to honk the horn before overtaking to alert the vehicle ahead and avoid accidents. 3. When driving, honking the horn before entering a curve can alert the opposite lane to avoid crossing the line. If you receive a horn signal from the opposite direction before a curve, it is recommended to respond with a honk as well.

What to Do If You Accidentally Enter a Wrong-Way Lane When Turning Right?

If a car accidentally enters a wrong-way lane after turning right, it must stop immediately, pull over to the side with hazard lights on, and call the traffic police for assistance. Wrong-way driving on a one-way street refers to the act of making a U-turn on a road designated for one direction of travel and proceeding in the opposite direction. Consequences of Wrong-Way Driving on a One-Way Street: This behavior is prone to causing traffic accidents and is strictly prohibited by law. On highways, wrong-way driving results in an immediate deduction of 12 points from the driver's license, a fine of 200 yuan, and possible suspension of the driver's license for twelve months. System Delays in Traffic Violation Query Platforms May Cause Delays in Clearing Fine Records: From the moment a violation occurs, it undergoes steps such as being captured, confirmed, and publicized. Similarly, processing the violation's point deduction and paying the fine also requires the system to follow corresponding procedures.

China's sixth-stage motor vehicle pollutant emission standards refer to the standards established to implement the "Environmental Protection Law of the People's Republic of China" and the "Air Pollution Prevention and Control Law of the People's Republic of China," aiming to prevent pollution from the exhaust of compression-ignition and gas-fueled spark-ignition engine vehicles, protect the ecological environment, and safeguard human health. 2. The early implementation of China VI standards will be divided into two phases. The first phase requires all light-duty diesel vehicles sold from July 1, 2018, to comply with China VI standards. 3. The second phase requires all light-duty gasoline vehicles sold from January 1, 2019, to comply with China VI standards. During these two phases, light-duty diesel and gasoline vehicles that do not meet the standards and are sold or transferred in Shenzhen will not be eligible for registration. Additionally, according to the notice, all vehicles transferred into Shenzhen from other regions must also strictly comply with China VI standards.
