Should the Wheels Be Straightened When Parking?

When parking, the wheels should be straightened; otherwise, over time it may affect the power steering system or the inclination angle of the front wheel kingpin. The functions and hazards are as follows: Functions: The tire tread is in contact with the ground in the vertical direction, but when the steering angle changes, the tire shoulder and part of the tread will bear the force. Hazards: The tire will maintain a state where the tread is in contact with the ground and bearing force. When the steering wheel is not straightened, the pressure on the tire sidewall is relatively high. Since the tire sidewall is very thin, frequently subjecting the tire to unbalanced force will accelerate the aging and deformation of the tire sidewall. Over time, this may lead to air leakage or tire blowouts.

What does it mean when the transmission indicates a fault?

Transmission indicating a fault suggests there is an issue with the powertrain electronic control system. Fault cause one: Transmission computer malfunction. Use a specialized automotive diagnostic computer to check the transmission computer's data stream, analyze the data stream, and remove the transmission computer. Measure the resistance values of internal electronic components and check if sensors are faulty using a multimeter to confirm the issue. If the transmission computer is faulty, it will cause the transmission fault light to illuminate. Fault cause two: Transmission filter clogging. Lift the vehicle using a lift, remove the engine underguard, loosen the drain plug with a wrench, and remove the oil pan to inspect the transmission filter for impurities. If impurities are present, they can clog the filter, causing the transmission fault light to illuminate. Fault cause three: Transmission overheating. Prolonged or overloaded engine operation can increase the temperature of the coolant, affecting transmission cooling. Additionally, insufficient coolant in the radiator reduces the cooling system's effectiveness, leading to transmission overheating and causing the transmission fault light to illuminate.

Will the car battery low voltage trigger a warning light?

Yes. When the car battery is dead, the engine malfunction indicator light usually comes on. The reason why the engine warning light illuminates after battery depletion may be due to fault codes generated by the low voltage. You can first go to a 4S shop to clear these codes. If the fault codes reappear afterward, further inspection and repair are needed. Below is an introduction to the dashboard warning lights: 1. Oil pressure warning light: In many cases, this indicates low oil level, and adding oil is relatively simple. 2. Coolant temperature warning light: This generally indicates overheating. When the coolant temperature reaches 100°C while driving, this light will illuminate. 3. Tire pressure warning light: Determine whether the pressure is too high or too low. Excessive pressure can easily lead to tire blowouts during driving, so the tire pressure should be reduced. The battery indicator light displays the working status of the car battery, typically in red or yellow.

What does RS mean in cars?

RS stands for the sports version of a motor vehicle. The sports version of a car can also be understood as a high-performance version of the vehicle, which differs from the standard version in terms of both power and appearance. Below are specific details about the sports car RS: Differences between sports cars and regular sedans: Sports cars differ from regular sedans as they emphasize enhanced power performance, excelling in acceleration, steering, grip, and handling compared to ordinary sedans. Additionally, they often feature distinct appearances, such as more streamlined bodies and lower drag coefficients. Advantages of sports cars: They have stronger engine output power and greater torque. Besides offering the comfort of mid-to-high-end sedans, sports cars also provide higher performance and safety, with more pronounced and smoother exterior lines. The rear spoilers on sports cars are typically larger than those on other models, reducing wind resistance for smoother and faster driving.

Do Hybrid Cars Need Charging?

Plug-in hybrids require external charging, while regular hybrid vehicles do not need charging. Here are some precautions regarding car charging: Pay attention to charging duration: Charging should be done in moderation. Undercharging or overcharging is not ideal. Insufficient charging will obviously not meet usage needs, while leaving the car charging for extended periods can lead to safety issues. Besides causing battery damage, it may also result in incidents like spontaneous combustion. Therefore, most charging should be done according to the vehicle's requirements to prevent potential safety hazards. Turn off in-car devices: When charging the car, avoid staying inside or turning on the air conditioning, music, and other configurations. Simultaneously charging and consuming electricity can easily drain the battery and cause overheating, which is particularly unsafe in summer and significantly increases the risk of vehicle spontaneous combustion.

What is Pneumatic Oil?

Pneumatic oil used in pneumatic tools is very clear, not viscous, and has strong fluidity. When added to a pneumatic motor, it serves the functions of lubrication, cleaning, and rust prevention, with the cleaning function being particularly important. After a pneumatic tool has been used for a period of time, a lot of dust or fine metal particles will inevitably enter the interior. This requires the combination of pneumatic oil and high air pressure to automatically clean these particles out through the exhaust holes, ensuring the cleanliness inside the machine motor and avoiding malfunctions caused by this. More details are as follows: 1. Why can't engine oil be used as a substitute: Engine oil is known to be very viscous and has strong adhesion. Once engine oil is added to a vane-type pneumatic motor, it will soon mix with dust and directly cause the motor to seize. Those who have repaired pneumatic tools know that tools mistakenly filled with engine oil will be black and sticky when disassembled, with various impurities mixed inside, leading to issues like fan blade rupture. 2. What oil can be used as a substitute for pneumatic oil: If you cannot find specialized lubricating oil for pneumatic tools at a hardware store, it is recommended to buy sewing machine oil (also called sewing machine lubricant) as a substitute. Remember, do not add engine oil.
