Turning off the anti-skid function when entering roads prone to skidding, such as muddy or icy sections, allows the vehicle's power to be evenly distributed to prevent skidding. If left on, the vehicle may spin out of control. Below is more information about the anti-skid system: 1. Definition of the anti-skid system: The Automotive Slip Regulation system (ASR), also known as the traction control system, is an active safety device in vehicles. It prevents drive wheel skidding, especially in high-powered vehicles during startup and acceleration, to maintain driving direction stability. 2. Function of the anti-skid system: Its primary purposes are to enhance traction and maintain driving stability. On slippery roads, vehicles without ASR are prone to drive wheel skidding during acceleration; rear-wheel-drive vehicles may fishtail, while front-wheel-drive vehicles may lose directional control.

What is the model of off-road tires?

Off-road positioning: SUV tread pattern type, mainly Highway Pattern (HP)/Highway Terrain (HT), followed by 4*4 which is between HT and All-Terrain (AT). AT is for off-road, and the most off-road is Mud-Terrain (MT). The following is related content: 1. Specifications and dimensions: The smaller the sidewall height of the tire, the more suitable it is for highways; the higher, the more suitable for off-road. Generally, tires for off-road use have a sidewall height of around 16cm, while highway-type tires are around 130. The wider the tire width, the more suitable it is for off-road, with nominal widths typically being 245/255/265. 2. Tire model: The markings are mostly in the form of: 215/70R15. The meanings of these numbers are: 215 represents the tire section width in mm, generally ranging from 145—285mm, in increments of 10mm; 70 is the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, with 70 representing 70%. Generally, the aspect ratio of tires ranges between 30%—80%. Under normal circumstances, ordinary cars should not use tires with an aspect ratio >75%, while luxury cars and high-performance sports cars are recommended to use tires with an aspect ratio

Can You Brake with the Clutch Fully Depressed?

You can brake with the clutch fully depressed. Here are the details: 1. For reverse parking and parallel parking, in these two test scenarios, you should first fully depress the clutch and then quickly press the brake. Since the entire test is conducted in first gear at a slow speed, the vehicle will not shake. 2. When encountering a red light or pulling over to park, during the third test, due to the higher speed, you should first use engine braking to slow down, release the accelerator in advance, then fully depress the clutch to downshift. As you approach the stopping point, you can slowly press the brake to a full stop. More details are as follows: 1. Situations where both the clutch and brake are fully depressed simultaneously: During hill-start parking, to prevent rolling backward, you need to quickly depress both the clutch and brake simultaneously. In case of an emergency during the test, only depressing the clutch will cause the vehicle to surge forward due to inertia, so it is generally advisable to depress both the clutch and brake simultaneously. 2. Situations where you brake first and then depress the clutch: During the third test, if the speed is high, you can first brake to reduce the speed and then depress the clutch to stop.

What to Do When There's a Rubber Friction Sound When Turning the Steering Wheel?

When there's a rubber friction sound while turning the steering wheel, it is generally caused by friction interference noise between the dust cover at the bottom of the steering column and the steering column during relative motion. You can check if the dust cover is installed correctly or apply a layer of lubricating grease to eliminate the noise. Recommendation: If any issues arise during vehicle use, it is advisable to promptly visit a professional repair shop for inspection to avoid unnecessary trouble. Reasons for the rubber friction sound when turning the steering wheel: 1. Friction sound between the steering column and floor mat: If the abnormal sound comes from below the steering wheel when turning it, inspect the steering column and car floor mat. An oversized aftermarket floor mat may directly contact the steering column, causing friction as the steering column rotates. Lack of lubrication can result in friction noise, which can be resolved by applying some lubricating oil. 2. Faulty clock spring (spiral cable): If the sound originates from inside the steering wheel, it is likely caused by interference from the clock spring inside the steering wheel. Remove the steering wheel's clock spring and apply some grease to see if the noise persists. If it does, replace the clock spring. 3. Lack of lubrication in the shock absorber's thrust bearing: If the abnormal sound comes from outside the car when turning the steering wheel, it might be due to insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber's thrust bearing. Open the hood and listen to determine if the sound is coming from the shock absorber's top mount. If it is the thrust bearing, applying grease may help. If the noise continues after greasing, replacement is necessary.

What Does Rearview Mirror Coating Mean?

Rearview mirror coating refers to applying a film-like coating layer on the windshield and exterior rearview mirrors. Its primary function is to prevent water from adhering, allowing rainwater to slide off directly during rain without affecting visibility. Below are relevant details: Situations unsuitable for coating: The windshield is not recommended for coating because the manually applied layer has a certain thickness and unevenness, along with some friction. This can prevent the wiper blade from fully adhering to the glass surface during use, causing the wiper to skip. Not only does this result in poor cleaning, but it may also damage the wiper motor. Situations suitable for coating: The side windows for the driver and front passenger are most suitable for glass coating, as these two windows directly impact visibility.
