Automotive brake master cylinder air leakage can be resolved by: disassembling the brake master cylinder for cleaning, inspecting the air shut-off valve for any damage, and then applying some grease before reassembling. The brake master cylinder, also known as the brake main cylinder, is a key component of the vehicle's braking system. Depending on the vehicle type, it is categorized into two types: air brake master cylinder and hydraulic brake master cylinder. The primary function of the brake master cylinder is to push brake fluid to various brake wheel cylinders to actuate the pistons. To enhance driving safety and comply with traffic regulations, modern vehicles are equipped with a dual-circuit braking system, which utilizes a tandem dual-chamber master cylinder to form a dual-circuit hydraulic braking system.

What does 'tune' mean in a car?

'Tune' in a car refers to the button for adjusting the audio system, including bass balance, treble balance, left-right balance, front-rear balance, and SVC (Speed-sensitive Volume Control). Car audio systems are installed to alleviate the monotony of travel for drivers and passengers. Initially, car AM radios were used, later evolving to AM/FM radios, tape players, and then to CD players and digital audio systems compatible with DCC and DAT. When using car audio, the volume should not be too loud as it may interfere with normal driving. It is also not advisable to listen to overly soothing music as it can cause drowsiness.

Is the AC light indicating cold air or hot air?

The AC light indicates cold air. When the AC function is turned on, the air conditioning compressor starts working. AC stands for AirCondition, which translates to air control and air conditioning in Chinese. In a car, it can be understood as the air conditioning cooling switch. When the AC light is on, the engine's load will increase accordingly, and fuel consumption will also rise. Besides cooling, the air conditioning compressor also has a dehumidifying function. Turning on the AC button can keep the interior of the car dry, prevent fogging on the car windows, and maintain a constant temperature inside the car. If the air conditioning is turned on in winter, it takes some time for the car to reach a certain temperature before the air conditioning can deliver hot air. In winter, the engine does not need to power the air conditioning to produce hot air, as the heat is generated by the engine during operation. This neither affects the car's power nor its fuel consumption.

How long is the grace period for compulsory insurance expiration?

Compulsory insurance can be deferred for up to 3 months for payment. As long as it is within these 3 months, the original auto insurance company can still accept renewal. However, according to regulations, vehicles without compulsory insurance are not allowed on the road. Vehicle compulsory insurance is the first compulsory insurance system implemented by national law in China. The Regulations on Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accident Liability stipulate that compulsory insurance is a mandatory liability insurance where the insurance company compensates the victim (excluding the vehicle occupants and the insured) for personal injury, death, or property loss caused by a road traffic accident involving the insured motor vehicle, within the liability limit. If the owner or manager of a motor vehicle fails to purchase compulsory vehicle insurance as required and is discovered by the public security traffic management department, the department may impose a fine of twice the minimum liability limit premium that the vehicle should have paid. Since compulsory insurance, in a sense, represents state intervention in personal will, the scope of compulsory insurance is strictly limited.

Where does the Ya-Ye Expressway run from and to?

The Ya-Ye Expressway runs from Ya'an in Sichuan Province to Yecheng in Xinjiang. It is one of the east-west horizontal routes in China's national expressway network and is classified as a long-term prospective route. The expressway primarily passes through the following regions: Ya'an, Tianquan, Luding, Kangding, Litang, Markam, Baxoi, Nyingchi, Lhasa, Shigatse, Gar, and Yecheng, spanning three provincial-level administrative regions: Sichuan Province, Tibet Autonomous Region, and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The Ya-Ye Expressway serves as a vital corridor connecting the Chengdu Plain with the Ganzi Tibetan area and further extending to Tibet. After its opening, the travel time from Chengdu to Kangding was reduced to just three and a half hours, nearly half the previous duration. To prevent driver fatigue during prolonged tunnel driving, the Ya-Kang Expressway section implements alarm sirens in the Erlangshan Tunnel and Laba River Tunnel Group during key daily periods (12:00-14:00 and 1:00-5:00 AM) to forcibly enhance driver alertness.
