Here are specific explanations regarding the causes of abnormal noise in a car's steering gear: From the perspective of steering gear principles: Many modern vehicles employ vacuum assistance, which only reduces the driver's steering effort without changing the actual load on the steering gear itself. Reducing wear: An effective method to minimize steering gear wear is to reduce the load and aging during its operation. It is advisable to develop the habit of turning the steering wheel only after the wheels start moving, thereby reducing friction resistance between the tires and the ground and alleviating excessive load on the steering gear and over-wear of the steering linkage system. Long-term stationary steering: This not only places a significant load on the steering gear but also accelerates tire surface wear and shortens tire lifespan.

What to Do When Your Car Gets Scratched by Someone Else on the Road?

Some car owners may not know that dash cams are not only capable of recording while the vehicle is in motion; even when parked and turned off, the dash cam can still function. Generally, when parking in a parking lot or public area, there are usually responsible personnel around. Since parking fees are charged, they also have the obligation to help look after the vehicles. If the car scratch is relatively severe, you can call the police and request traffic police assistance. They will review surrounding surveillance footage from the relevant time period to identify any suspicious vehicles.

How to Cool Down a Car Quickly?

Starting the car and immediately turning on the air conditioning to cool down often results in the interior temperature being higher than the ambient temperature, which can increase engine load and fuel consumption. Use a lower fan speed when there are fewer people in the car and a higher speed when there are more. For example, when there are only one or two people in the car, the first fan speed setting is usually sufficient. Cold air tends to sink, so directing the airflow upward can help neutralize the rising warm air, effectively speeding up the cooling process. In summer, bacteria from dust can combine with condensation and clog components like the evaporator. It's best to clean the air conditioning radiator before using the AC.

How to Properly Install a Gear Pump?

When tightening the end-face bolts of the gear oil pump, apply force symmetrically and evenly while rotating the rotor. If any jamming occurs, loosen the bolts and retighten them. The connection between the drive shaft of the electric pump and the motor shaft should use an elastic coupling or chain coupling. The pump drive shaft cannot bear any radial vertical force, such as from belt or other side-drive methods. The base plate must be strong enough to prevent misalignment between the motor and the pump, which could damage the pump. Ensure that the fluid enters the inlet, and avoid dry running or idling as much as possible. Do not reverse the inlet and outlet of the gear oil pump.

How to Wrap a Steering Wheel Cover?

First, place the cover at the 6 o'clock position, then use your legs to brace the steering wheel while using both hands to position the cover at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions. Ensure the cover is properly aligned on both sides after positioning. Use masking tape to wrap around the steering wheel cover for external positioning, removing the tape as you sew. Thread the needle and start sewing from the bottom. After making the first stitch, don’t rush to continue sewing. First, tuck the edges by using a trim tool to push the leather into the gaps. Once everything is aligned, proceed with sewing. It’s recommended to maintain moderate tension during sewing. Initially, you don’t need to pull the thread too tight. After sewing a section, use the needle to adjust and tighten the thread before continuing.
