Steps for headlight refurbishment: 1. Clean the dust and dirt on the surface of the headlight; 2. Use tape to cover and seal the areas around the headlight that do not need refurbishment; 3. Sand with water sandpaper; 4. After sanding, remove the powder, then use a towel dipped in polishing wax to polish in a circular motion. Most car headlights are made of polycarbonate plastic, which tends to age over time, causing the lens to become blurry. This reduces the brightness of the headlights, affecting illumination and driving safety. Car headlights, also known as car front lights or car LED daytime running lights, serve as the 'eyes' of the car. They not only relate to the external image of the car owner but are also closely linked to safe driving at night or under bad weather conditions.

Hazards of Excessive or Insufficient Clutch Free Play

Excessive clutch free play will prevent complete clutch disengagement, making gear shifting difficult while accelerating wear on the driven plate, pressure plate and flywheel, thereby reducing the clutch service life. Insufficient clutch free play will cause clutch slippage during engagement, resulting in reduced vehicle power and accelerated clutch wear. The hazards of improper clutch pedal free play are as follows: 1. When clutch pedal free play is too small or nonexistent, the inner end of the release lever contacts the release bearing end face; 2. This effectively applies a separating force to the pressure plate, easily causing clutch slippage during operation and unreliable power transmission, while intensifying wear on the driven plate, pressure plate and flywheel - severe cases may even lead to burning; Additionally, it accelerates wear on the release bearing and release lever tip; 3. Excessive clutch pedal free play reduces the clutch separation stroke, resulting in incomplete clutch disengagement that makes transmission gear shifting difficult, while accelerating wear on the driven plate, pressure plate and flywheel, shortening the clutch service life.

Which Types of Tire Cracks Require Replacement?

Tires should be replaced immediately under the following circumstances: 1. 'New tires' stored for more than 5 years; 2. Tires with bulges; 3. Tires with tread patterns less than 1.6mm; 4. Generally, tires have a service life of 4 years or 80,000 kilometers, and replacement is recommended if either condition is exceeded. Below is an introduction to tire crack conditions: 1. Natural rubber aging causes cracks. Typically, after 4-5 years of use, some fine cracks may appear on tires. These cracks are referred to as 'weather checking.' Such tires become hard, produce loud noise, and start losing rubber properties, indicating they need replacement. 2. External impacts or scratches cause cracks. Usually resulting from traffic accidents or curb scratches while parking, tires with cracks that do not damage the cord layer can still be used, but those with cord layer damage require prompt replacement.

Can the car be driven if the warning light is on and the car is shaking?

As long as the warning light is on, it indicates that there is a problem with a certain component of the car. However, if the car can still move, it means the issue is not particularly severe, because if there were a very serious fault, a red warning light would illuminate. If the engine warning light is yellow, drive to the nearest repair station as soon as possible for inspection and repair. Additional information: 1. Poor idling is usually caused by issues with the intake system and fuel injection control system, and occasionally by mechanical faults in the engine. 2. Common causes of poor idling include: leaks in the intake system; malfunctioning of the cold start injector and temperature-time control switch; abnormal fuel supply pressure in the fuel injection system; poor fuel atomization due to injector faults; and ECU malfunctions.

Is It Necessary to Install Cruise Control?

Cruise control can be installed. Here are the precautions for using cruise control: No braking function: Cruise control does not have an automatic braking function, while adaptive cruise control is more intelligent and addresses this issue. However, full automation of electronic devices still requires gradual improvement, so it is recommended that drivers remain attentive to road conditions. Ending operation: When the driver presses the brake pedal, cruise control ends. The speed value is not cleared and can be restored to the previously set speed to continue cruising. Encountering heavy rain: In situations such as heavy rain or winding mountain roads, please turn off the cruise function and switch to cautious manual driving. Downhill sections: On downhill sections, the vehicle may coast faster. In this case, use the foot brake as necessary and consider turning off cruise control.

What does oil emulsification mean?

Oil emulsification refers to the phenomenon where the engine oil turns milky yellow or milky white, resembling yogurt in appearance, and may also have some bubbles. Here is relevant information: 1. Oil emulsification can indicate the presence of water in the car's engine. This is not related to the engine itself but is associated with the quality of the oil, weather conditions, and the engine's operating environment. If oil emulsification occurs, the oil must be replaced immediately, as emulsified oil loses its essential properties and cannot be used. 2. When replacing the oil, ensure the engine is cleaned beforehand. Clean the external air filter chamber, waste gas pipe, engine carburetor, and also inspect the exhaust joints. For internal engine cleaning, if possible, open the right cover to clean the engine oil sump. If this is not feasible, you can fill the engine with kerosene, start the engine, then shut it off, and repeat this process. The running time should not exceed 30 seconds. Then, replace the kerosene with fresh kerosene and repeat the process.
