What Causes the Scraping Sound When the Car is Running?

There are many possible reasons for noise during car driving: it could be due to engine oil issues, such as inferior quality oil, prolonged lack of oil changes, or insufficient oil levels. These conditions can easily increase friction between the valves and guides, as well as in hydraulic lifters, making various sounds within the engine more pronounced. Relevant information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Introduction: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), with a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), serves to lubricate and reduce wear, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. It is hailed as the 'blood' of the car. 2. Composition: Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil's performance, endowing it with certain new characteristics, making them an important part of lubricating oil.

What does air brake mean?

Air brake is a braking method relative to oil brake, and also a braking system, mainly used in medium and large-sized vehicles, characterized by rapid response, harsh braking, and strong force. The information about air brake is as follows: Components: It consists of brake operating mechanism, dual-circuit braking mechanism, brake, air compressor, etc. Among them, the brake operating mechanism includes brake pedal, pedal hanger, manual brake valve, etc.; the dual-circuit braking mechanism includes air reservoir, brake valve, low-pressure alarm, air pressure regulator, brake pipe, directional valve, relay valve, safety valve, and drain valve. Working principle: The parking brake system of this type of vehicle normally uses a powerful spring to maintain the braking state. When the vehicle needs to move, the driver releases the parking brake by performing an air charging action. A certain air pressure must be reached to push open the spring, which means releasing the parking brake before the vehicle can move. In conventional braking, the parking brake locks the drive shaft, while the foot brake uses compressed air to enter the brake chamber to lock the wheels.
