A tire pressure of 270 means 2.7 bar, and 2.7 bar for an SUV's tires in summer is not normal. According to the provisions and requirements of the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the standard tire pressure is 2.4-2.5 bar. 2.7 bar is higher than the maximum value of the standard tire pressure, so it is not normal. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: The friction and adhesion of the tires will decrease, affecting braking performance; It can cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; It accelerates the wear of the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening the tire's lifespan; The vibration of the vehicle body increases, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; It causes excessive stretching and deformation of the tire cords, reducing the elasticity of the tire body, which increases the load on the car during driving; The resistance to punctures decreases. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, and the impact can cause internal cracks and bursts, leading to a blowout.

Is the Highlander a Full-Time Four-Wheel Drive?

The Highlander is not a full-time four-wheel drive; it is an on-demand four-wheel drive. Here is more relevant information: 1. Four-Wheel Drive: Four-wheel drive refers to a vehicle maintaining a four-wheel drive form throughout the entire driving process. The engine's output torque is distributed to the front and rear wheels in a fixed proportion. This driving mode can provide better off-road and handling performance at any time, but it cannot adjust torque distribution according to road conditions and has higher fuel consumption. 2. On-Demand Four-Wheel Drive: On-demand four-wheel drive is controlled by a computer chip to switch between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. On normal roads, the vehicle runs in two-wheel drive mode. When encountering off-road conditions or wheel slippage, the computer will detect and automatically distribute power to the other two wheels. For the part-time four-wheel drive mode, the quality of the control program affects the intelligence of the drive mode switching. In addition, there is also a part-time four-wheel drive (Part-Time 4WD) where the driver manually controls the switching of the drive mode. Many SUVs and off-road vehicles have one or more of these four-wheel drive modes to complement each other's strengths and weaknesses.

What Does the Tire Specification Represent?

Tire model numbers indicate the type of tire, tire size, the maximum speed the tire can withstand, the production year of the tire, and more. For example, 235/55-R17 99V represents, from left to right, the width of the tire, the thickness of the sidewall, the diameter of the corresponding rim, and the maximum speed the tire can withstand. Specific details are as follows: 1. Tire Numbering: International standard tire numbering uses millimeters to indicate the section width and the percentage of the aspect ratio. 235 means the tire width is 235mm, 55 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width. 17 represents the diameter of the rim the tire corresponds to, 99 stands for the load index of the tire, and V indicates the speed rating of the tire. 2. Tire Model: The tire model represents various information about the car tire. Tire model specifications are often represented by a set of numbers, such as 165/70R14, which indicates a radial tire with a width of 165 millimeters, an aspect ratio of 70, and a rim diameter of 14 inches. 165 denotes the section width of the tire, 70 means the aspect ratio of the tire section is 70%. The aspect ratio is the ratio between the section height and the section width of the tire, and the rim diameter is 14 inches.

Does the engine have a production date?

Engines do have production dates. Every vehicle's engine comes with a production date. To check the engine production date: The production date of the engine can usually be found on the metal plate located in the engine compartment. Inside the engine compartment, there is typically an aluminum car plate that displays the vehicle's serial number, engine displacement, model, brand, and importantly, the specific production date. Checking the VIN: Normally, the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is located under the front windshield. The 10th digit of the VIN indicates the production date of the vehicle. While each vehicle's VIN is unique, the production date can always be found within it. Generally, the vehicle's manual will also clearly state the production date, which can be compared with the date on the VIN to ensure consistency.
