Wheel covers are necessary to install. The function of wheel covers is to protect the tire bolts, effectively prevent mud and water from contacting them, and extend their service life. The installation method for wheel covers: After aligning the position, press firmly inward. When installing, be sure to align the position of the air valve, otherwise it will not fit. The wheel hub is the rotating part of the tire's inner contour steel connected by columns to the wheel core, that is, the metal component that supports the center of the tire mounted on the axle, also called rim, steel ring, wheel, or tire ring. Wheel hubs come in many types depending on diameter, width, forming method, and material. According to the characteristics and needs of different vehicle models, the surface treatment process of wheel hubs will also adopt different methods, which can be roughly divided into painting and electroplating.

What Causes Steering Wheel Vibration When Speed Exceeds 100 km/h?

The reasons for steering wheel vibration when speed exceeds 100 km/h are: 1. Incorrect front wheel alignment angle, excessive toe-in; 2. Low front tire pressure or tire imbalance due to repairs or other reasons; 3. Front wheel rim deformation or unequal number of tire bolts; 4. Loose installation of transmission system components; 5. Bent drive shaft, power imbalance, or front axle deformation; 6. Shock absorber failure. Precautions for steering wheel use: 1. Reduce the steering angle when driving at high speeds; 2. Straighten the steering wheel when the middle of the vehicle passes the center line; 3. Straighten the steering wheel when the front of the vehicle is aligned with the center line of the lane.

What Should the Tire Pressure Be in Summer?

In summer, the recommended tire pressure for cars is 2.3bar. Due to the high temperatures in summer, the tire pressure should be 0.1 to 0.2bar lower than the standard tire pressure recommended by the car manufacturer. If the tire pressure is too high, the elasticity of the tire will decrease, and the adhesion to the ground will be reduced, which can affect braking performance and increase the risk of a blowout when encountering impacts. The hazards of low tire pressure include: 1. Increased road friction coefficient, leading to higher fuel consumption; 2. Heavy steering wheel, making the car prone to veering off course, which is detrimental to driving safety; 3. Increased movement of various parts of the tire, with excessive rolling causing abnormal tire heating; 4. Reduced performance of the cord and rubber, leading to cord breakage and delamination or excessive friction between the rim and the tire, causing bead damage and abnormal wear; 5. Increased friction between the tire and the ground, causing the tire temperature to rise sharply, softening the tire and reducing its strength, which can lead to tire bursts; 6. Low tire pressure increases the deformation of the tire body, causing sidewall cracks, flexing movements, overheating, rubber aging, accelerated shoulder wear, and shortening the tire's lifespan.

Will the airbag deploy if the seat belt is not fastened?

If the seat belt is not fastened, the airbag will still deploy. In the event of an accident where the deployment conditions are met, the airbag will inflate in stages or with reduced force. The function of the seat belt is: during a vehicle collision or when emergency braking is applied, the pretensioner will instantly retract, tightening the slack in the belt to securely restrain the occupant in the seat and prevent secondary collisions. The airbag consists of an inflation sensor and inflation system, and its purpose is to: protect occupants by reducing contact with interior objects, more evenly distributing head and chest impact forces, and absorbing the occupant's kinetic energy, thereby complementing the effectiveness of the seat belt.

What is the battery model for Geely Emgrand?

Geely Emgrand battery model is 6QAW60a12V, where 12V represents the battery voltage of 12V. The number 6 indicates that it consists of 6 single cells, each with a voltage of 2V, resulting in a rated voltage of 12V. Q stands for automotive starting battery. A and W denote the type of battery, with A representing dry-charged battery and W indicating maintenance-free battery. Functions of the battery: When starting the engine, it provides a strong starting current (around 10A) to the starter; when the generator is overloaded, it can assist the generator in supplying power to electrical equipment; when the engine is idling, it supplies power to electrical equipment; the battery also acts as a large-capacity capacitor, protecting the vehicle's electrical appliances; when the generator's terminal voltage is higher than the electromotive force of the lead-acid battery, it converts part of the electrical energy into chemical energy for storage, i.e., charging. When using the battery, avoid leaving the car parked in an open parking lot for extended periods. If long-term parking is necessary, remove the battery to prevent freezing damage. In winter, car engines are harder to start, and each starting attempt should not exceed 5 seconds, with a minimum interval of 15 seconds between attempts. The car battery should be charged regularly, as prolonged disuse will lead to self-discharge and eventual scrapping. Therefore, start the car periodically to charge the battery.

What Are the Reasons for Strong Gasoline Smell During Cold Start?

The reasons for strong gasoline smell during cold start are: 1. Insufficient air intake at the throttle; 2. Problems with the carbon canister or carbon canister solenoid valve; 3. Excessive carbon deposits inside the engine, leading to poor atomization of the air-fuel mixture; 4. Leakage in the fuel injector; 5. Low external temperature causing incomplete combustion of the mixture, which is directly discharged through the exhaust pipe; 6. The solenoid valve remains closed; 7. Aging of the carbon canister rubber hose. Precautions for cold start of the vehicle are: 1. Not all components of the starter are fully lubricated, and since the engine's operating temperature has not reached the optimal level, avoid prolonged idling to warm up the engine; 2. The fuel injector automatically increases the fuel injection volume to raise the engine speed, and normal driving can be resumed once the engine temperature reaches the optimal operating temperature.
