Reasons for Brake Pulling?

Brake pulling can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Uneven wear of brake linings or hub inner rings on one side. 2. Uneven tire wear on one side, resulting in inconsistent friction on both sides. 3. Frame deformation causing uneven force distribution. 4. Differences in tire pressure, tread patterns, or wear levels between the two sides, which can lead to different actual rolling radii and cause the vehicle to pull even when not braking. 5. Uneven braking torque on the left and right sides of the same axle, causing the vehicle to pull to one side during braking. Common causes include brake caliper leakage, piston corrosion, oil contamination on drum brake linings, and different surface roughness between brake discs and pads or drums and linings.

What is the normal value for car tire pressure?

The standard tire pressure for passenger cars is within the range of 2.3-2.5 bar, with a maximum not exceeding 3.0 bar and a minimum not below 2.1 bar. According to the stipulations and requirements of the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; The maximum tire pressure should not exceed 3.5 bar. Normal tire pressure in winter: In winter, the tire pressure should be based on the standard tire pressure of the car, with an appropriate increase of about 0.2 bar. Normal tire pressure in summer: Generally, the lower limit of the standard tire pressure for car tires is sufficient. For example, the lower limit for standard tires is 2.4 bar. If the car is often parked outdoors, the tire pressure can generally be about 0.1 bar lower than the standard to avoid tire blowouts due to high temperatures.

How Often Should a 7-Seater Vehicle Undergo Inspection?

Within 6 years: For biennial periodic inspections, the vehicle owner can directly apply for the inspection mark from the traffic management department of the public security authority by providing the compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate and the vehicle and vessel tax payment or exemption certificate, without the need for a safety technical inspection at an inspection institution. Over 6 years but less than 10 years: The inspection cycle is relaxed from once a year to once every two years, meaning only two on-site inspections are required within 10 years, specifically in the 6th and 8th years. Over 10 years: Annual inspection is required. For vehicles over 15 years old, inspections are required every six months. New regulations for 7-seater vehicle inspections: Non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are included in the exemption range; for non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once a year to once every two years. Note that the following three situations are not eligible for the exemption policy: Minivans; vehicles illegally modified and penalized by law; vehicles involved in traffic accidents causing casualties. Additionally, vehicles that have not been registered for over 4 years since the date of manufacture are not eligible for the 6-year exemption policy. Inspection process: First, after submitting the inspection application, the vehicle undergoes an on-site inspection. The vehicle is driven into the automatic inspection area to sequentially check exhaust emissions, speed, lights, side slip, and chassis for compliance with standards. All items must pass to proceed. Next is the appearance inspection, verifying the vehicle's license plate, type, body color, engine number, VIN code, and frame number. Then, the body appearance is inspected, including details like the bumper, engine compartment, rearview mirrors, lower mirrors, window glass, paint, engine operation status, and the interior and wheels of the vehicle. Finally, the owner can obtain the inspection report and application form from the inspector. If all items pass, the owner can proceed to pay the inspection fee and collect the vehicle license and certification label. If any items fail, the owner must repair the vehicle and undergo a re-inspection until all items pass before proceeding with the visa process.

What are the types of new energy vehicles?

Currently, the main types of new energy vehicles include pure electric vehicles, range-extended electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, hydrogen engine vehicles, and other new energy vehicles. The following provides a detailed introduction to new energy vehicles: Related concepts of new energy vehicles: New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new types of onboard power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive systems, resulting in vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. Classification of new energy vehicles: They can be divided into broad-sense new energy vehicles and narrow-sense new energy vehicles. Broad-sense new energy vehicles, also known as alternative fuel vehicles, include vehicles that entirely use non-petroleum fuels such as pure electric vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicles, as well as vehicles that partially use non-petroleum fuels such as hybrid electric vehicles and ethanol gasoline vehicles.

How to Identify the Maximum Speed Rating of Car Tires?

Generally, tire specifications can be described as: tire width in mm/percentage of tire thickness to width, R rim diameter (in inches), load index, speed symbol. For example: 195/65-R15-88H, where H represents the maximum speed rating. More information about car tires is as follows: 1. Car tires limit the vehicle speed, and different tires have different speed requirements. It is crucial to strictly adhere to the speed limits of the tires during driving; otherwise, it will significantly reduce the tire's lifespan and increase the risk of a blowout. 2. Tires with different speed ratings have different applicable ranges. P-T rated tires (maximum speed 150-190 km/h) are suitable for small and compact cars, U-V rated tires (maximum speed 200-240 km/h) are suitable for mid-to-high-end cars, while W-Z rated tires (maximum speed 240-300 km/h) offer better performance and are more commonly used in large luxury cars and supercars.

What problems can occur if a car runs out of coolant?

Running out of car coolant will affect the heat dissipation efficiency of the radiator, preventing it from achieving proper cooling. The coolant cannot circulate normally, leading to overheating, and in severe cases, it may cause engine damage. In cold climates, it can also result in the engine or radiator freezing, causing engine failure and rendering the vehicle inoperable. Methods to check if coolant is low: Observe the coolant warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it likely indicates low coolant, though it could also be due to excessively high cylinder temperatures. Inspect the coolant reservoir. If the fluid level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving and promptly add coolant. Check the water level indicator on the coolant tank. The normal coolant level should be between the maximum and minimum marks. To determine if coolant is low, check the markings. If the coolant is below the minimum level, it indicates a shortage.
