The rear suspension of the Civic is an independent suspension, specifically a multi-link independent suspension. The multi-link independent suspension enhances the wheel's grip, which in turn improves the vehicle's handling and ride comfort. The multi-link suspension is an improvement over the double-wishbone suspension, ensuring a certain level of comfort while, due to the increased number of links, keeping the wheels as perpendicular to the ground as possible, reducing body roll, and maintaining tire contact with the road. The Civic is a compact car with body dimensions of 4649mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1416mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. In terms of appearance, the Civic features a stylish and sleek design with smooth body lines.

Where is the engine number located on the Audi Q7?

The engine number of the Q7 is located between the supercharger on top of the engine and the right cylinder head, near the generator belt and water pump pulley. There is a 45-degree inclined surface where the engine number is stamped. It typically consists of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be found through the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license displays the engine number, usually located on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate records the engine number; The car purchase invoice includes the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate states the engine number. It is important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer's lineup, and engine models can be the same. The engine number, however, refers to the production serial number of the engine. Each engine can only have one unique engine number, and no two engines share the same number.

What Causes Steering Wheel Play?

Steering wheel play may be caused by the following reasons: wear of the steering column universal joint, wear of the steering gear rack and pinion, and wear of the tie rod ball joint. 1. Wear of the steering column universal joint: The steering column universal joint is essentially a universal joint, whose function is to change the direction of the steering column torque and prevent the steering column from puncturing the driver in the event of a serious accident. Wear of the universal joint will cause excessive steering wheel play, and sometimes a clicking sound can be heard. 2. Wear of the steering gear rack and pinion: The steering gear rack and pinion will experience some wear, especially if there is a habit of not returning the steering wheel to the center position when parking, which will subject the rack and pinion to greater pressure and accelerate wear. When the rack wear is not severe, the tightening force of the rack and pinion can be increased by adjusting the screw on the steering gear, but the steering wheel will become heavier accordingly. 3. Wear of the tie rod ball joint: There are inner and outer ball joints on the vehicle's steering gear. The inner ball joint connects the tie rod to the steering gear rack, and the outer ball joint connects the steering knuckle to the tie rod. Lifting the vehicle and manually shaking the wheel can allow you to feel the play in the ball joint and hear a rattling sound.

What Causes a Loose Steering Wheel?

The reasons for a slightly loose steering wheel may include the following: 1. Issues with the transmission system: If the looseness occurs at high speeds, it is likely due to problems with the vehicle's transmission system. You should first visit a repair shop to check whether the alignment angles of all tires are within standard parameters. If not, adjustments should be made as soon as possible. 2. Looseness when turning the steering wheel, caused by a belt being too loose or too tight: If looseness occurs when turning the wheel, it might be due to the timing belt being either too loose or too tight. 3. Sudden looseness of the steering wheel at high speeds, caused by excessive or harsh braking: If the brake pads overheat and deform upon cooling, it is advisable to replace the brake disc. Alternatively, if the brake disc does not need replacement, ensure it returns to a usable condition. 4. Looseness at specific speeds, indicating tire issues: If the steering wheel becomes loose every time the vehicle reaches a certain speed, the tires may need balancing. 5. Looseness on bumpy roads, possibly due to tie rod end problems: If you feel the steering wheel loosen on rough terrain, it could be due to severe wear on the tie rod end or minor changes in tire shape. In such cases, a thorough inspection is necessary.

Which direction do the wheels turn when the steering wheel is turned to the right?

When the steering wheel is turned to the right, the wheels turn to the right. When the steering wheel is turned "to the left" or "to the right", the wheels turn in the direction of forward motion: turning left makes the wheels turn left, and turning right makes them turn right. Additional information: Relevant knowledge about the steering wheel is as follows: 1. Definition: A wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of travel in cars, ships, airplanes, etc. It is connected to the steering shaft via splines and converts the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. The steering wheel is the part of the car that the driver interacts with the longest, uses most frequently, and reflects the most concentrated user demands. 2. Design: The steering wheel is generally circular in shape, with high-performance sports models often flattening the bottom arc. This design is now also applied to regular models. 3. Design features: Ergonomics, such as convex pressing surfaces, mountain-like designs on the back of the grip, suitable hardness and roughness. The wheel diameter is typically 365~385mm, and the grip diameter is 30~50mm.

What are the environmental hazards caused by automobiles?

Engine-powered vehicles pose the following environmental hazards: 1. Harmful gas emissions from automobile exhaust: While burning gasoline for power, cars emit carbon monoxide, which damages the Earth's protective ozone layer. Without the ozone layer, global temperatures rise, sea levels increase, and land area diminishes. 2. Automobile exhaust also has toxic effects on plants: Secondary pollutants in exhaust, such as ozone and peroxyacetyl nitrate, can cause necrotic lesions and dry spots on plant leaves, while ethylene affects flowering and fruiting. Exhaust is particularly harmful to crops like sugar beets, spinach, tomatoes, and tobacco, leading to reduced yields along highways due to pollution. Methods to reduce automobile environmental pollution: 1. Promptly detect leaks. Leaks of lubricants and other fluids from vehicles significantly pollute the air, so daily inspections are necessary to identify and repair them immediately. 2. Prevent air conditioner leaks in vehicles. Conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle's air conditioning system annually to prevent Freon leaks. Even during seasons when the air conditioner is not in use, occasionally turning it on helps maintain seals and prevent leaks. 3. Check the choke valve. A poorly installed choke valve is a major cause of automobile air pollution. If too loose, it can cause oil deficiency in the engine, making the car difficult to start; if too tight, it allows excessive gasoline into the engine, leading to the emission of unburned hydrocarbons from the exhaust pipe, polluting the air. 4. Avoid burning engine oil. Blue or blue-white smoke from the exhaust pipe indicates that the car is burning engine oil, which significantly pollutes the air and requires immediate repair.
