What to Do If the Disc Brake Piston Does Not Fully Retract?

First, determine whether the issue lies with the piston or the sealing ring. 1. Retraction Principle: The disc brake piston retracts using the negative pressure generated by the master cylinder. As for the sealing ring, it relies on tension for sealing, but the minimal gap is primarily ensured by the precision of the machining between the pump body and the piston. If the gap is too large, the sealing will fail. 2. Piston Rust: The cause is rust formation on the piston due to water ingress or corrosion under natural conditions, preventing normal retraction. You can remove the piston from the slave cylinder by 5-10mm and spray rust remover or use fine sandpaper wrapped around the piston, rotating it several times. 3. Sealing Ring Aging: If the rectangular rubber sealing ring is aged, swollen—or if the piston is smooth but difficult to press back—consider issues like aging, swelling, or deformation of the sealing ring. The rectangular rubber sealing ring must be replaced.

Can You Still Drive If the Transmission Gets Flooded?

You should not continue driving if the transmission gets flooded. Water primarily enters the transmission through the vent hole, as the transmission is not completely sealed, allowing water to directly infiltrate. Additionally, during operation, if the transmission encounters cold water and the water level is high, water can be sucked in through the vent hole. Related information: 1. Immediate Oil Circulation and Replacement: Once the transmission is flooded, it must be sent to a specialized transmission repair shop within 24 hours for oil circulation and replacement. If more than 24 hours have passed but less than 48 hours, disassembly and cleaning are required. Continued use under these conditions, with the transmission gears churning in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, will cause the mixture of water and oil to strip internal components of their protective oil film. 2. Report for Repair: After 48 hours, transmission components will oxidize and develop rust. If these rusted parts are not promptly replaced, the resulting rust can further clog the oil passages, leading to minor issues like gear shift hesitation or slipping, or severe problems such as transmission burnout. Therefore, it is recommended to report for repair immediately after flooding to avoid greater losses.

Does Car Damage Insurance Cover Flooded Vehicles?

Flooded vehicles are eligible for compensation, but under water submersion circumstances, car damage insurance only covers vehicle damage excluding the engine. Engine damage caused by flooding can only be compensated by additional wading insurance. Below is an introduction to auto insurance: 1. Overview: Motor vehicle insurance refers to commercial insurance that covers liability for personal injury or property damage caused by natural disasters or accidents involving motor vehicles. 2. Policyholders: Primarily corporate entities and individuals possessing various motorized transportation tools. Insured subjects mainly include various types of automobiles, but also extend to specialized vehicles like electric cars, battery-powered vehicles, and motorcycles. 3. Principle: The fundamental function of insurance is to organize economic compensation and facilitate insurance payouts, which also represents the core function of motor vehicle insurance. Through motor vehicle insurance, the diverse risks and consequential losses faced by enterprises, families, and individuals owning motor vehicles can be dispersed and transferred across society, embodying the social principle of 'pooling risks and spreading losses.'

Will the starter work when the ignition switch is turned to the ACC position?

No. The starter does not work in the ACC position. The meanings of the ignition switch positions are as follows: LOCK: Locks the steering wheel and cuts off the power supply, while the ACC accessory power is turned on; ON: All vehicle power supplies except the starter are turned on; START: The starter power is turned on and the engine starts. (After releasing the key post-start, it automatically returns to the ON position.) Below is relevant information about ACC: 1. Introduction: The full English name of ACC is "Adaptive-Cruise-Control," which means "adaptive cruise control" in Chinese. The adaptive cruise control system is an intelligent automatic control system developed based on the existing cruise control technology. 2. Principle: During vehicle operation, the distance sensor (radar) installed at the front of the vehicle continuously scans the road ahead, while the wheel speed sensor collects speed signals. When the distance to the vehicle ahead becomes too small, the ACC control unit can coordinate with the anti-lock braking system and engine control system to apply appropriate braking to the wheels and reduce the engine's output power, ensuring the vehicle maintains a safe distance from the vehicle ahead.

What does the 'Engine Water Damage Exclusion Clause' mean?

The Engine Water Damage Exclusion Clause is a type of exemption agreement. For insured vehicles covered under this clause, the insurance company will not be responsible for compensating any direct damage to the engine caused by water ingress during use. Since this clause exempts the insurance company from certain liabilities it would otherwise bear, the premium is correspondingly cheaper. Additional Information: 1. Applicability: This insurance may be considered for purchase if the vehicle is frequently used in desert areas or regions with minimal rainfall, but it is not recommended for other areas. 2. Coverage Services: After the auto insurance reform, the coverage for water damage has been integrated into the vehicle damage insurance. As long as vehicle damage insurance is purchased, compensation for engine water damage is also available. However, it is important to note that the cutoff date for the auto insurance reform is September 20, 2020. Auto insurance policies purchased or renewed on or after this date include water damage coverage under vehicle damage insurance, while policies before this date still follow the previous implementation methods.

What is the three-yield mnemonic of 'yield right to left, yield turning to straight'?

Turning vehicles must yield to vehicles going straight. When both vehicles are going straight, the vehicle coming from the right side of the road has the right of way. The left-side vehicle must yield to the right-side vehicle. When vehicles are coming from opposite directions, a right-turning vehicle must yield to a left-turning vehicle. According to regulations, traffic should proceed as follows: Designated lanes: At intersections with designated lanes, enter the appropriate lane based on your intended direction of travel. Entering a roundabout: When preparing to enter a roundabout, yield to vehicles already within the roundabout. When turning left: Turn from the left side of the intersection center point. Activate the turn signal when turning, and use low beams when driving at night.
