Steering system failures are caused by issues such as steering gear malfunction and power steering pump failure. Specific faults: Oil leakage from the steering gear at the upper cover, side cover, and the connection point of the steering shaft arm, abnormal noises during steering, and oil leakage at the rear cover of the power steering pump can all lead to steering system failure. Solutions: The upper cover, side cover, and steering shaft are equipped with sealing rings. Replacing the oil seals and sealing rings can resolve steering gear issues. Oil leakage at the rear cover of the power steering pump is typically due to damaged sealing rings, which can be fixed by replacing the rear cover sealing ring. Abnormal noises during steering are often caused by damaged thrust bearings in the steering column. During inspection, turning the steering wheel left and right to locate the source of the noise can help identify the issue for disassembly and repair.

Is Gear Oil the Same as Transmission Oil?

Gear oil and transmission oil are essentially the same, but they are referred to differently based on their application locations. Gear oil is typically used in gear transmission mechanisms such as automotive steering gears, transmissions, and drive axles. Transmission oil is a lubricant that maintains the cleanliness of a vehicle's transmission. Due to the high surface pressure during gear transmission, gear oil plays a crucial role in lubricating gears, resisting wear, cooling, heat dissipation, preventing corrosion and rust, cleaning, reducing gear surface impact and noise, among other functions. Transmission oil is a lubricant that ensures the cleanliness of a vehicle's transmission, guaranteeing normal operation and extending the lifespan of the transmission system. Depending on the transmission structure, it is further categorized into automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and manual transmission oil.

How to Maintain a Car?

The maintenance methods for a car are divided into regular maintenance, periodic maintenance, and major maintenance. Regular maintenance refers to the routine maintenance performed every 5,000 kilometers, which includes changing the engine oil and oil filter, checking the fuel filter, air filter, etc. Each time, it is essential to inspect whether the brake discs and pads need replacement, whether the brake fluid needs replenishment, and the condition of the tires. Periodic maintenance is performed every 3 years or every 40,000 kilometers. In addition to regular maintenance, it also involves cleaning the fuel injectors, throttle body, and the vehicle's intake system, as well as replacing the transmission oil, front and rear axle oil, coolant, brake fluid, etc. The tire wear should also be checked, and tires should be replaced if necessary. Major maintenance is conducted after the vehicle has traveled 100,000 kilometers, involving a comprehensive inspection of the vehicle and replacement of parts as needed. This includes checking the wiring, transmission mechanism, etc.

What transmission does the Song PLUS use?

Song PLUS is equipped with the latest 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, which has been specially optimized for the usage habits and scenarios of Chinese users. It features certain technical upgrades in terms of transmission smoothness, fuel efficiency, and durability. Introduction to Dual-Clutch Transmission: A dual-clutch transmission is a product developed based on a manual transmission. Its structure is similar to that of a manual transmission, but it adds an extra set of clutches and shift control mechanisms. One clutch controls the odd-numbered gears, while the other controls the even-numbered gears. Advantages of Dual-Clutch Transmission: It is based on a manual transmission but is not an automatic transmission. Besides offering the flexibility of a manual transmission and the comfort of an automatic transmission, it also provides uninterrupted power output.

What Causes Engine Noise During Cold Start in Geely Vision?

Reasons for engine noise during cold start in Geely Vision: Poor oil lubrication: After the car has been parked for a day, the engine lubricant basically all flows back to the oil pan. During a cold engine start, the oil pump cannot immediately establish oil pressure and form an oil film between components. Especially the valves inside the cylinder head do not receive lubrication during cold starts. Whether it's hydraulic lifters or mechanical rocker arms, there will be some valve clearance, resulting in abnormal noise. Carbon canister solenoid valve noise: The function of the carbon canister solenoid valve is to open the electromagnetic valve installed between the carbon canister and the intake manifold after the engine starts. This not only reduces emissions but also lowers fuel consumption. However, abnormal noise may occur during its operation.
