If slight vibration or deviation is noticed in the car body during driving, it is generally caused by tire-related issues. The following introduces the functions of tires: 1. Supporting the entire weight of the vehicle: bearing the load of the car and transmitting forces and moments in other directions. 2. Transmitting traction and braking torque: ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface to improve the car's power performance, braking performance, and passability. Working together with the car suspension to mitigate impacts during driving and dampen resulting vibrations. 3. Preventing severe vibrations and premature damage to car components: adapting to the vehicle's high-speed performance and reducing driving noise, ensuring driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency.

I've often encountered body shaking issues during my years of driving, with the most common cause being tire problems. For example, unbalanced tires or improper air pressure can cause severe shaking at high speeds. Too low tire pressure leads to tire deformation, while too high makes the car unstable. Suspension system failures are also common, such as aging shock absorbers causing uneven bumps. Other causes include warped brake rotors, damaged wheel hubs, or unbalanced drive shafts. Once, my car shook like it was dancing, and after inspection, it turned out to be uneven tire wear—replacing the tires fixed it. For daily driving, it's recommended to regularly check tire pressure and perform wheel alignment to ensure safety first, and not to overlook small issues that could lead to bigger problems. Regular maintenance is key to peace of mind and saving money.

When I drive my new car, the body keeps shaking. After consulting friends, I found there are various common causes. Unbalanced tires are the most common issue; unstable wheel installation causes shaking at high speeds. Tire pressure problems are also frequent, as both underinflation and overinflation can lead to vibrations. Damaged suspension components, such as shock absorbers, can cause the car to bounce up and down. Additionally, issues with the braking system, like warped brake discs, result in noticeable shaking when braking. Last time my car shook, the repair shop identified a wheel hub problem, and it was smooth after adjustment. It's recommended to maintain the car promptly, drive smoothly in daily use, and avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration. Addressing these issues early can prevent negative impacts on driving experience and vehicle lifespan.

As a family car owner, body shaking worries me about safety. The main factors include tire wear or imbalance, which cause body vibration. Suspension failures, such as faulty shock absorbers, can make the car bumpy and unstable. Brake disc issues are particularly noticeable when decelerating. Last time, while driving my child to school, the car shook, and after inspection, it turned out to be low tire pressure. After fixing it, the situation improved significantly. It's recommended to regularly check tire pressure and suspension, and maintain safe driving habits for better safety.

I think the car shaking is mostly due to tire or suspension issues. Unbalanced tires cause wobbling at high speeds, and incorrect tire pressure makes the car unstable. Worn shock absorbers lead to bumpy rides, and drivetrain problems like axle imbalance can also cause vibrations. Last time my car shook, the repair shop found warped brake discs, and it was fine after fixing. I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and getting wheel alignments to save trouble on maintenance.

Standard Tire Pressure for Sedans?

The normal standard tire pressure for small cars is between 2.2-2.5 BAR. Here is an introduction about tire pressure: Normal range: The appropriate normal tire pressure is between 2.3 2.7 BAR. However, in summer when temperatures are high, the tire pressure may rise above 3.0 BAR after driving, so a tire pressure value between 2.3 2.5 BAR is more suitable in summer. Excessive tire pressure: This will reduce the friction and adhesion of the tires, affecting braking performance; cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerate wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening tire lifespan; increase vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; when encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, and the impact may cause internal cracks and explosions, leading to a blowout. Insufficient tire pressure: This will increase the friction coefficient with the road surface, raising fuel consumption; cause heavy steering and deviation, posing risks to driving safety; increase movement in various parts of the tire, leading to abnormal overheating due to excessive rolling; multiply the friction between the tire and the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength, which may cause a blowout during high-speed driving; insufficient tire pressure will increase tire deformation, making the sidewalls prone to cracks and causing flexing movements, leading to excessive heat, rubber aging, fatigue in the cord layer, and cord breakage, while also increasing the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating shoulder wear.

Who invented the rotary engine?

The inventor of the rotary engine is Felix Wankel from Germany. The rotary engine directly converts the combustion expansion force of flammable gas into driving torque. Compared with reciprocating engines, the rotary engine eliminates useless linear motion, so a rotary engine of the same power is smaller in size, lighter in weight, and has lower vibration and noise, giving it significant advantages. Due to the axial operation characteristics of the rotary engine, it can achieve higher operating speeds without requiring precise crankshaft balancing. The entire engine has only two rotating components, which is a significant simplification compared to the more than twenty moving parts, including intake and exhaust valves, found in a typical four-stroke engine. This also greatly reduces the possibility of malfunctions.

What is the safe following distance when driving on highways in snowy conditions?

Essential items for driving generally include an umbrella, a life hammer, a warning triangle, a tow strap, a jack, and a spare tire. The reasons for carrying these items are as follows: 1. Life Hammer: Also known as a safety hammer, it is an auxiliary escape tool installed in enclosed compartments. It is usually placed in easily accessible locations within vehicles or other enclosed spaces. In emergencies such as fires or submersion in water, it can be conveniently used to break windows or doors for a quick escape. 2. Warning Triangle: When a driver encounters sudden vehicle failure requiring roadside repairs or is involved in an accident, the reflective properties of the warning triangle can alert other vehicles to take evasive action, thereby preventing secondary accidents.
