Repair the deformed part of the car's metal shell, then apply filler to shape it, and spray special paint to restore the deformed metal surface to match the undamaged areas. Below is additional information: 1. Fender: Also known as a wing panel, the fender is the outer body panel that covers the wheel. Depending on the installation position, it is divided into front fender and rear fender. 2. Function of the Fender: Utilizing fluid dynamics, it reduces the drag coefficient, making the car drive more smoothly. The front fender is installed near the front wheel. Since the front wheel has a steering function, it must ensure the maximum space for the front wheel's turning. Therefore, designers use the "wheel travel diagram" to verify the fender's design dimensions based on the selected tire model and size. The rear fender does not have the issue of wheel rotation interference, but for aerodynamic considerations, it is slightly arched and protrudes outward.

Will the repainted paint peel off?

Repainted paint can peel off. Reasons why repainted paint peels off: Due to poor adhesion and bonding between paint layers, issues such as paint peeling, flaking, bubbling, and delamination may occur. Definition of painting: Automotive painting refers to applying a layer of paint to the car's surface to protect it. Automotive painting typically uses baked paint. In automobile manufacturing plants, after the frame and body are welded, the next step is painting. Types include standard paint, metallic paint, and pearl paint. The automotive painting process involves applying putty, sanding, and painting. Precautions for touch-up painting: When repairing a car's paint surface, always go to a professional institution and ensure the work is done by a professional.

What is the Transmission Mechatronic Unit?

The transmission mechatronic unit is the solenoid valve block of the mechatronic control unit. The valve block serves as the assembly that controls the hydraulic circuit in an automatic transmission. Introduction to the Mechatronic Unit: Simply put, the transmission mechatronic unit controls the operation of the automatic transmission through solenoid valves. It processes input signals from sensors and other connected devices by filtering out interference and amplifying the signals. These processed signals are then converted into electrical signals that drive the operation of the electro-hydraulic valves. Function of the Mechatronic Unit: By utilizing the mechatronic unit for control, it enables precise regulation of the solenoid valves, ensuring smoother and more accurate transmission operation. This results in enhanced driving stability and improved fuel efficiency. The mechatronic unit facilitates system integration, enabling seamless electronic gear shifting. Upon removing the transmission oil pan, the mechatronic unit becomes visible. Beneath it lies an aluminum valve body containing cylindrical plungers. The valve body is equipped with multiple solenoid valves that perform various detection functions.

Does Forced Towing Damage the Car?

Normal towing will definitely not harm the car, but unscientific towing may damage the vehicle. Introduction to Towing: The full name of a tow truck is a road clearance vehicle, also known as a wrecker, road rescue vehicle, or tow truck. It has multiple functions such as lifting, pulling, and towing. Tow trucks are mainly used for road breakdown vehicles, urban traffic violators, and emergency rescue operations. Precautions for Towing: Choose the appropriate towing hook. The towing hook should not just "hook" onto the vehicle but must be securely fastened and properly installed. Always double-check if the hook is properly engaged before towing. Prefer a tow bar. If the rear vehicle has brake issues or if towing is required on icy or snowy roads, a tow bar should be prioritized. Plan the route carefully. Select a towing route with less traffic, better road conditions, and a shorter distance. Avoid sections with potential hazards such as crowded areas, logistics centers, commercial districts, underground parking lots, etc., to reduce the likelihood of secondary accidents.

What is the sequence of the manual transmission subject 2 driving test?

The sequence of the manual transmission subject 2 driving test is reverse parking, parallel parking, curve driving, right-angle turning, and slope parking and starting. Introduction to the motor vehicle driver's license: The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as the "driving license," which is the certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Generally, people cannot drive on the road without a license. However, for those who have mastered safe driving techniques, the document that permits them to drive on the road is the "driver's license." Content of the driver's license examination: Traffic regulations and related knowledge (Subject 1) — written test. Venue driving (Subject 2) — on-site, actual vehicle. Only pass or fail. All nine mandatory test items must be passed to pass the Subject 2 test. Road driving (Subject 3) — highway or simulated venue, actual vehicle. The test is entirely monitored by electronic surveillance + traffic police examination, making the road test more fair. After the road test, a theoretical test on safe and civilized driving knowledge (commonly known as Subject 4) is added, which differs from Subject 1 by including image analysis and judgment.

What is the function of a car tachometer?

The function of a car tachometer is to reflect the working condition of the engine. Working principle of the tachometer: Electronic tachometers utilize electromagnetic principles. A piece of iron is connected to the pointer, surrounded by an electromagnetic coil. The electromagnet has three wires: positive, negative, and the high-voltage pack input line, which is the engine's ignition wire. Each time this wire discharges, the engine ignites once, meaning it completes two rotations. Based on this principle, every time the electromagnet is energized, it magnetizes once. The faster the engine rotates, the stronger the magnetic force, causing the pointer to rise. Mechanical tachometer: Mechanical tachometers use a flexible steel wire with one end connected to the engine and the other end connected beneath the instrument panel. The engine's power drives the rotation of the flexible wire. Inside, there is a circular magnet with a bowl-shaped iron disk attached to it, and the pointer is mounted on this disk. The faster the rotation, the quicker the magnetic force moves the iron bowl, similar to the principle of the mechanical speedometer on the left.

Is It Normal for a New Car to Make Noise When Braking in Reverse?

It is normal for a new car to make noise when braking in reverse. Normal noise: When a car is new or has just had new brake pads installed, the noise is normal because the friction surfaces have not yet matched. It will automatically disappear after driving and breaking in for a few hundred kilometers. Noise after being wet from rain: Brake pads are usually made of iron, which can rust when wet from rain. This will cause noise when braking, but it will go away after the rust is worn off. Noise due to brake pad configuration issues: Possible causes include brake pads being installed backward, missing screws or parts, the brake pads being too small and not matching the friction surface, or the use of cheap brake pads.
