Methods to determine if the brake load sensing proportioning valve is faulty: decreased braking effectiveness, longer braking distance, and during emergency braking, the rear wheels lock up first, causing the rear of the vehicle to become unstable or even leading to a rollover. The brake load sensing proportioning valve only affects the rear wheels. In contrast, the ABS system can precisely prevent any wheel from locking up, allowing the vehicle to maintain directional control. Higher-end vehicles are also equipped with an ESP system, which can maintain vehicle stability by controlling components such as the ABS and steering gear. The brake load sensing proportioning valve is a hydraulic mechanical device designed to maintain the appropriate load proportion between the front and rear wheels during driving and to ensure that the rear wheels do not lock up during emergency braking.

What is the wading depth of the RX300?

The wading depth of the RX300 is 30cm. Below are precautions for driving through water: 1. Drive in low gear: Use a low gear (for automatic transmission models, engage the hill-climbing gear) and slowly drive through the water at a steady speed while maintaining control of the steering wheel. Be aware of any potholes or gaps in the road beneath the water. 2. Do not restart the engine after stalling: If the vehicle stalls in the water, do not attempt to restart the engine. Engine stalling indicates that water has entered the cylinders. Restarting the engine can cause severe damage due to the incompressibility of water, leading to bent or broken piston connecting rod components, and in severe cases, complete engine failure.

What does 110t on a tire mean?

T on a tire represents the speed rating of the tire. The speed rating T indicates that the maximum speed the tire can sustain under specified conditions with a specified load is 190 km/h. The maximum speed for T is 190 km/h. Additional information: Tire speed ratings: Represented by uppercase English letters, marked on the sidewall of the tire. Different letters indicate different speed ratings. 1. "L" indicates a maximum permissible speed of 120 km/h; 2. "T" indicates a maximum permissible speed of 190 km/h; 3. "V" indicates a maximum permissible speed of 240 km/h. The speed rating of a tire also decreases year by year as the tire ages and its elasticity diminishes. Tire pressure also affects the speed rating; the lower the pressure, the lower the speed rating.

FSI is the abbreviation for Fuel Stratified Injection, which means fuel stratified injection technology in Chinese. It represents a future development direction for engines. Fuel stratified injection technology is a type of lean-burn technology for engines. What is lean burn? As the name suggests, it means the gasoline content in the engine's air-fuel mixture is low, with a gasoline-to-air ratio that can reach 1:25 or higher. 2. FSI can directly inject fuel into the combustion chamber, reducing the engine's heat loss, thereby increasing output power and lowering fuel consumption, benefiting both fuel economy and power performance.
