Methods to identify differential noise: 1. The noise from differential bearings is usually a constant high-pitched sound, but its rhythm is much milder compared to the noise from the reducer's conical drive gear bearings; 2. Identifying rear axle gear noise: During normal straight-line driving, since there is almost no relative movement between the differential's side gears and planetary gears, no noise is heard. The car differential is a mechanism that allows the left and right (or front and rear) drive wheels to rotate at different speeds. It mainly consists of left and right side gears, two planetary gears, and a gear carrier. Its function is to enable the left and right wheels to roll at different speeds when the car is turning or driving on uneven roads, ensuring that both drive wheels perform pure rolling motion.

What is the shelf life of diesel engine oil?

The shelf life of unopened diesel engine oil is generally 4-5 years. Storage method: The contamination and deterioration of diesel engine oil during storage are mainly caused by its exposure to moisture, oxygen, and impurities in the air. Therefore, opened diesel engine oil must be stored in a sealed container. Related introduction: Diesel engine oil is the lubricating oil used in diesel engines. Diesel engines, abbreviated as diesel engines, are engines with high torque, efficiency, and good economic performance. Their energy source comes from the combustion of diesel engine oil. The application prospects of diesel engines are very broad, and the global diesel engine market is showing steady growth. In fact, maintaining a diesel engine is a highly technical task, especially when using fully synthetic diesel engine oil. Proper maintenance can even extend the service life of a diesel engine.

Can I add engine oil of a different brand when the oil level is low?

Engine oils from different brands should not be mixed. Explanation: This is because engine oils produced by different manufacturers may contain varying chemical compositions of additives. When lubricants with different additive chemistries are mixed together, chemical reactions may occur between the additives. If you find yourself in a situation where the oil level is insufficient during operation and have no choice but to mix oils, try to select oils of similar types and the same viscosity to avoid potential negative consequences. Function of engine oil: Engine oil serves to lubricate and reduce friction among internal engine components, assist in cooling, provide sealing to prevent leaks, and act as a shock absorber. If improper lubrication occurs due to mixing oils, it can cause significant damage to the engine.

Can Subject 2 and Subject 3 be taken on the same day?

Subject 2 and Subject 3 can be taken on the same day, but only in a few regions can they be taken together. Generally, they need to be taken separately with a required time interval. Below are some considerations for the driving test: 1. Scheduling the test: The vehicle management office arranges the test according to the scheduled test site and time. After passing Subject 1, the applicant can schedule either Subject 2 or Subject 3 road driving skills test. If the vehicle management office cannot arrange the test within 60 days, the applicant can choose another test site within the province. 2. Scheduling methods: The vehicle management office uses a nationally unified test scheduling system, providing applicants with options such as internet, telephone, and service counters to schedule tests.

Can I Take the Subject 3 Test If I Failed Subject 2?

Subject 3 can be taken even if you failed Subject 2. However, there are two prerequisites for booking the Subject 3 test: 1. Training Hours: You must complete all required training hours for Subject 3. 2. Mock Exam: You need to complete at least two hours of Subject 3 mock exams at the driving school. Additional relevant information is as follows: Notes: Since driving schools have timed surveillance cameras that capture and upload monitoring information to the local provincial traffic police's internet service platform, you can only book the Subject 3 test after the website updates your training hours. Once both conditions are met, you can directly book the Subject 3 test, which can save time, as you have to wait 10 days after failing Subject 2 before you can book the next test on the website.

Can You Control Speed by Braking in Subject Two?

In Subject Two, you cannot control speed by braking; the primary method is using the clutch to regulate speed. Here are the relevant details: 1. Speed Control: When depressing the clutch, press quickly and release slowly. The correct pedal operation posture is to place the ball of your foot on the pedal to prevent slipping. On uneven road surfaces, you can lightly apply the brake to control speed, but the braking should be gentle, gradually increasing pressure during the process, and sudden braking must be avoided. 2. Precautions: Do not panic during the test; think clearly before operating. Choose a pair of soft-soled, non-slip shoes for practice and the test. Memorize the steps and practice multiple times to develop good habits for starting and stopping.

What to Do If the Valve Cover Gasket Has Cracks?

If the valve cover gasket has cracks, it needs to be replaced promptly. The valve cover gasket is primarily used to seal and prevent oil leakage. Since the valve cover gasket is mostly made of rubber, it is inevitable that it will harden and age over time, leading to oil leakage. However, oil leakage at the valve cover gasket is not necessarily due to aging; it could also be caused by uneven screw pressure, excessive screw pressure, deformation of the valve cover gasket, blockage of the crankcase forced ventilation valve, or poor quality of the sealing ring or sealant. Effects of Engine Oil Leakage: Long-term oil leakage in the engine can result in insufficient lubrication of internal components, leading to severe wear. If the engine is severely damaged, repairs can be very troublesome and economically costly.
