If there is abnormal noise in the power steering pump, the filter should be cleaned or the pump should be re-secured. Below are the specific reasons for weakened power steering in a car: 1. Dirty power steering fluid: The fluid acts as a force-transmitting medium. If the fluid is too dirty, it can cause poor circulation, making steering difficult. In severe cases, the power steering pump may also produce abnormal noise. 2. Insufficient or leaking power steering fluid: Lack of fluid means lack of power assistance. Check the related systems for any signs of leaks. Pay special attention to the power steering fluid reservoir, fluid lines, and steering gear. 3. Loose or tight power steering belt: Alternatively, the belt may be worn out. The tension can be adjusted, but a worn belt must be replaced.

Is the rear suspension of the new Mazda Axela still an independent suspension?

The rear suspension of the new Mazda Axela is not an independent suspension; it uses a torsion beam non-independent suspension. The torsion beam non-independent suspension is an earlier type of suspension used in automobiles. In this type of suspension, the two rear wheels of the car are connected to a single rear axle, so when one wheel experiences vibration during driving, the other wheel will also vibrate. The new Mazada Axela is a car produced by Changan Mazda, and it is the third model to adopt the new generation "SKYACTIV" technology and the new design theme "KODO." The new Axela is equipped with two SKYACTIV gasoline engines: the "SKYACTIV-G 1.5L," which is introduced to the Chinese market for the first time, and the high-efficiency "SKYACTIV-G 2.0L."

What happens if a car's radiator runs low on water?

The effects of low water level in a car's radiator are: 1. The engine's cooling capacity is relatively reduced, thinning the lubricating oil and degrading its quality; 2. It exacerbates wear on the surfaces of moving parts, potentially leading to cylinder sticking, piston ring seizure, overheating, and cylinder scoring. The functions of a car's radiator are: 1. To absorb heat from the engine block; 2. To prevent the engine from overheating. The reasons for low water level in a car's radiator include: 1. Leaks in hose connections or the hoses themselves; 2. Cracks in the engine block, improper sealing or damage to the cylinder head gasket, causing water leakage; 3. Damage or pinholes in the oil cooler's sealing ring, leading to water leakage; 4. An improperly sealed radiator cap; 5. Leaks in the heater core; 6. Leaks in the coolant tee.
