1. Effects: It can cause engine shaking, insufficient power, and excessive fuel injection. Throttle valve failure can lead to engine shaking, but engine shaking is not necessarily caused by throttle valve failure. There are many reasons for engine shaking, which may be due to problems in the intake system, fuel system, or ignition system. 2. Common issues in the intake system: First, excessive impurities in the throttle valve and intake manifold can prevent the onboard computer from accurately controlling the idle intake air volume. Second, the air-fuel mixture may be too rich or too lean, usually due to intake manifold leaks. Fuel system problems are often caused by the use of low-quality gasoline, leading to fuel pump blockages or incomplete combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the cylinders, which can also cause engine shaking.

What is the reason for abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel to the right but not to the left?

The reasons for abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel to the right but not to the left are as follows: 1. Issues with the power steering fluid: If the fluid level in the reservoir is too low, air can enter the hydraulic system, forming air resistance in the oil pipes, which can cause mechanical wear between steering components and produce abnormal noise; 2. Power steering pump failure: When the power steering pump makes abnormal noises, it indicates that the pump is damaged and needs to be replaced. Additionally, check if the drive belt of the power steering pump is slipping. If it is slipping, identify the cause and replace or adjust the belt tension; 3. Damaged top bearing of the shock absorber: If there is abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel, check the dust cover of the front shock absorber and apply grease to the top of the shock absorber. If the noise persists after applying lubricant, the top bearing of the shock absorber may be damaged and needs to be replaced.

Should the Handbrake Be Applied When Shifting to Neutral at a Red Light?

Applying the handbrake when shifting to neutral at a red light is not always necessary. Here are three automatic transmission driving tips: 1. At a red light: Depending on driving habits, you can temporarily stop by pressing the brake while keeping the gear in D. This is because the torque converter in the transmission is equipped with a reaction wheel with a one-way clutch, which amplifies the torque from the engine crankshaft. It does not rotate at engine idle speed and only engages when the engine speed increases. 2. When starting to move: Press the brake pedal before shifting the gear lever from P or N to a driving gear. Release the brake pedal, and the vehicle will start moving slowly. The purpose of pressing the brake in advance is to ensure the safety of the driver and the vehicle. 3. When starting the engine: The engine can only be started when the gear lever is in the P or N position. If the gear lever is in a driving gear position, such as D or R, the engine will not start.

How Far Can an Out-of-Town Vehicle with a Beijing Entry Permit Drive into the City?

With a Beijing entry permit, there are no driving restrictions, and you can drive into any ring road without limitations. Here are the specific details about the Beijing entry permit: 1. Introduction: The Beijing entry permit is a temporary pass for non-Beijing licensed vehicles to enter within the 6th Ring Road of Beijing and certain sections outside the 6th Ring Road. It is valid for 7 days, and you can apply for a 5-day extension at the local traffic police station one day before, on the day of, or one day after the expiration date. 2. Procedures: According to the policy, when applying for a Beijing entry permit, you need to provide a driver's license, vehicle registration, ID card, insurance policy, and a valid vehicle inspection sticker. However, in practice, only the driver's license, vehicle registration, and ID card are required. The driver's license and ID card must belong to the same person (who does not have to be the vehicle owner), and the ID card holder must apply in person.

How many times can a bottle of tire repair fluid be used?

Tire repair fluid can only be used for minor leaks on tires without large gaps, meaning it's for emergency use only. One bottle can be used three to four times. Additional information: 1. Automatic tire repair fluid: With automatic tire repair fluid, there's no need for traditional tire repair—it can fix a puncture in just 3 seconds. Once added, it can be used long-term. If a tire is punctured while driving, the fluid automatically repairs it without needing to stop, completely changing the traditional manual tire repair method. 2. Advantages of tire repair fluid: It has strong repair capabilities, capable of sealing holes as small as micropores and as large as 6mm. It is suitable for all types of inflatable rubber tires, whether they have inner tubes or not. After being injected into the tire, it remains in liquid form for a long time, not freezing at -40°C and not decomposing at 100°C. It does not corrode tires or metal wheel rims and can prevent rust. The product itself is non-flammable, non-toxic, and non-polluting. It has enormous market potential.

Is It Okay to Buy a Car That Has Been in the Showroom for a Month?

It is okay to buy a car that has been in the showroom for a month. Here are three key points to note when inspecting a new car: 1. Check the paint surface: Pay special attention to the uniformity and smoothness of the seams. It's best to compare with another car of the same model. The gaps between the doors, bumpers, and engine hood should be consistent. If the gaps are too large or differ in width from other cars, be cautious in your selection. 2. Inspect the tires: The tires of a new car should have no damage to the sidewalls, and the front tire sidewalls and treads should show no signs of punctures. Ideally, the tire hairs should still be intact, at least on the rear tires. If there are no traces of tire hairs on either the front or rear tires, but the odometer shows only a few kilometers, this is abnormal. 3. Check the nameplate: Each car's nameplate corresponds to a unique engine number and chassis number. Verify these numbers against the certification codes to ensure they match. Also, check the manufacturing date on the nameplate. The gap between the delivery date and the manufacturing date should not exceed three months.

Why does the brake suddenly become very hard to press in winter?

In winter, the brake suddenly becomes very hard to press due to the ABS system using intermittent braking to prevent wheel lock-up or poor brake fluid flow. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. ABS system prevents wheel lock-up: Snow or ice often appears on the road in winter, reducing the friction between the wheels and the ground. Therefore, drivers are more likely to trigger the ABS anti-lock braking system when pressing the brake. When the ABS system is working, the vehicle's brake becomes hard to press, and there may also be a feeling of the brake pushing back. This situation is normal and not caused by a vehicle malfunction, so there is no need to worry too much. The ABS system uses intermittent braking to prevent wheel lock-up, significantly reducing the vehicle's braking distance. 2. Poor brake fluid flow: At low temperatures, the brake fluid flow becomes poor, which greatly increases the resistance of the brake fluid in the pipelines. As a result, the brake is much harder to press when starting a cold car. In this case, simply warm up the car for 10 minutes, and the brake will return to normal once the brake fluid reaches its working temperature.
