How to Solve Abnormal Noises While Driving?
1 Answers
Abnormal noises while driving can be categorized into several types, and appropriate solutions should be adopted based on the source of the noise. Here are several common scenarios: 1. Brake noise: This manifests as a squeaking metal friction sound when pressing the brake pedal, often caused by rust on the brake disc or hard particles in the brake pads. The usual solution is to stomp on the brakes a few times to see if the noise subsides, followed by inspecting the brake discs and pads. 2. Tire noise: Check whether the tires need replacement. 3. Steering noise: When turning the steering wheel to its limit, a noise may occur, possibly due to friction in the tie rod ball joint or rubber boot. In this case, drivers need not panic. 4. Chassis noise: Chassis noises are often metallic friction sounds, indicating component damage or aging. If the noise occurs at high speeds, check whether the chassis bolts are properly tightened.
