To address squeaky door seals, replacement of the sealing strips is necessary. These strips serve to fill gaps between vehicle body components, providing functions such as vibration damping, waterproofing, dustproofing, sound insulation, and decoration. Automotive sealing strips are applied to door panels, door frames, front and rear windshields, engine hoods, and trunk lids. Key considerations for replacing sealing strips include: 1. Before replacement, carefully compare and select the appropriate type of sealing strip for your vehicle model, as different models use different types; 2. After selecting the correct sealing strip, remove the old one and thoroughly clean the area to be covered before installation; 3. Ensure one or two drainage holes remain unobstructed on the door when installing the new sealing strip to avoid blocking them.

What Causes a Vehicle Not to Consume Urea?

It may be that the vehicle's SCR system is not functioning. Due to environmental protection agencies in various countries proposing further reductions in nitrogen oxide pollutants emitted by diesel engines, engine manufacturers have begun using SCR technology to meet the requirements of environmental agencies. The addition of urea in vehicles is intended to treat diesel engine exhaust. The working principle is as follows: when nitrogen oxides are detected in the exhaust pipe, the urea tank automatically sprays diesel exhaust fluid. The diesel exhaust fluid and nitrogen oxides undergo a redox reaction in the SCR catalytic reaction tank, producing non-polluting nitrogen and water vapor that are then emitted.

What is the metal strip in front of the car windshield?

This thin metal wire is a resistance wire, used to heat the glass for defrosting and defogging. Car window films are categorized into front windshield film, rear windshield film, and side window films. Among these, the front windshield has the highest requirements for window films. According to the traffic safety regulations of the Ministry of Public Security, the light transmittance of the front windshield must be greater than 70% to ensure driving safety. It is strongly advised not to use dark-colored window films on the front windshield. When selecting the UV protection index of the window film, the higher the better, as it helps protect the dashboard components from premature aging caused by prolonged sun exposure.

Can car glass shatter automatically?

Car glass self-explosion is a complex phenomenon with no unified conclusion, but in most cases it is caused by temperature. Rapid temperature changes leading to uneven thermal expansion and contraction can cause the glass to shatter. Just like an egg, if the force is evenly distributed at every point, even a large force won't crush it. However, if the force varies at any point beyond the safety limit, it will break. Sudden cooling or heating can cause this self-explosion phenomenon. There are three main reasons for car glass self-explosion: 1. Poor tempering treatment of the glass itself. 2. Uneven heating during glass film application. 3. Excessive thermal variation in the glass film.

Can a Car Be Blown Away by Wind?

As long as the wind is strong enough, of course it can be overturned, but under normal circumstances, the probability of trucks and vans being overturned is much higher than that of family cars. For family cars, although crosswinds are not so easy to overturn the car, attention should also be paid to side-slipping and loss of control, which may lead to other traffic accidents. Strong winds not only bring a lot of inconvenience and safety hazards to people's travel, but also seriously affect vehicles on the road: such as dust raised on the road blocking the driver's vision, debris blown up or broken around easily hitting the roof or penetrating the windows, and on highways, it is more likely to cause the vehicle to lose control at high speed due to strong crosswinds, bringing serious safety hazards.
