What are the possible causes of bumping noise from the left front wheel of a Crown?

It may be due to inaccurate four-wheel alignment of the vehicle. Long-distance driving causes significant tire wear, leading to uneven tire wear and resulting in abnormal noise. It is recommended to check if there are sand particles trapped between the brake dust shield and the brake disc of the left front wheel. If present, remove them. Below is an introduction to the Crown: 1. The Crown comes in four models and seven grades, all equipped with a 3.0L dual VVT-I engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, and built on an FR (front-engine, rear-wheel-drive) platform, combining smooth handling with powerful driving force. Additionally, the Crown achieves an ideal weight distribution of 53:47 between the front and rear body through maximum lightweight design of the engine and suspension system and scientific layout, maintaining body weight balance. 2. In terms of active safety, the Crown adopts advanced braking technology and excellent driving assistance equipment, including TRC traction control system, VSC vehicle stability control system, and VDIM vehicle dynamics integrated management system, ensuring optimal grip under various road conditions and delivering outstanding handling effectiveness. 3. In passive safety, the Crown utilizes the world-class high-performance GOA body technology, with standard equipment including 11 airbags, such as side curtain airbags and knee airbags.

I've been driving a Crown for many years, and this creaking noise from the left front wheel over bumps is quite common. The most frequent issue is aging shock absorbers—they start squeaking as soon as you hit a bump, likely due to leaked fluid or worn rubber bushings, which prevents proper impact absorption. Next is the suspension system; loose ball joints or linkages can rattle and make noise when going over bumps. Then there are tire and wheel issues—worn wheel bearings or uneven, bulging tires can also cause clunking sounds on rough roads. Last time I had a similar issue, replacing the shock absorber a few months ago fixed it. I suggest first checking your tires for abnormal wear. If the noise persists, take it to a professional shop to prevent suspension problems from worsening and affecting driving safety—older cars like the Crown require extra care.

What is the minimum speed in 3rd gear?

25 kilometers per hour. The speed range for manual transmission 3rd gear corresponds to 25~90 kph. The higher the power of the car, the higher the maximum speed per gear. Below is more information about the gears: 1. Speed range for each gear: 1st gear speed is 0~30 kph, 2nd gear 10~50 kph, 3rd gear 25~90 kph, 4th gear 35~120 kph, 5th gear 45 kph and above. 2. Economical driving: If you want economical driving, shift up actively while driving. Before the engine speed reaches 2000 rpm, shift up in time. 3. Better power driving: If you want better power while driving, delaying gear shifting is the best choice, but also consider the ride comfort in the car. The engine speed should not be too high. Generally, shifting up when the engine speed is between 2500 rpm and 3000 rpm gives better results.

Can You Get the Green Book When Financing a Car Purchase?

When buying a car through installment financing, you cannot obtain the green book until the loan is fully repaid. After clearing the car loan, it typically takes about 10 to 20 days to receive the green book. Below is detailed information about the automobile green book: 1. Definition: The green book refers to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate," which serves as the vehicle's household registration document. This certificate is legal proof of vehicle ownership, kept by the vehicle owner and not carried with the vehicle. It's required for any vehicle registration procedures such as transfers or ownership changes, and records relevant vehicle information. 2. Required application materials: "Motor Vehicle License Plate Application Form," original and copy of the vehicle owner's identity proof, and vehicle inspection record form. 3. Replacement conditions: If the Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate is lost, missing, or damaged, the vehicle owner must apply for a replacement at the local vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered.

How to Judge Distance When Turning a Car?

There are several methods to judge the distance when turning a car: 1. On roads other than cities and highways, to judge the distance between the right wheel and the roadside, look diagonally from the center line of the car hood. If this center line reaches the roadside line, it means the right wheel is at least 30 centimeters away from the roadside line. Exceeding this range may mean going beyond the roadside line. 2. To judge the distance from obstacles on the right, look out from the right side of the car hood. If you can see a very low position, it means you are still far from the obstacle. If you can only see a high position, it means you are very close to the obstacle and need to be cautious. 3. Pay attention to the rear of the vehicle in front while driving. When you can no longer see the entire rear of the vehicle in front, it means you are very close, so avoid getting too close to the vehicle ahead. Generally, when stopping at a red light, maintain a distance of half a car length from the vehicle in front.

How High is the Trunk Temperature in Summer?

In summer, the trunk temperature can reach over 60 degrees Celsius. However, generally, the interior temperature of the car is higher than that of the trunk. The following are the reasons for the high temperature inside the car in summer: 1. Transparent Windshield: Relatively speaking, the temperature in the cabin is higher than that in the trunk during summer because the front windshield of the cabin is almost transparent. 2. Easy Radiation Entry: External sunlight and radiation easily enter the car, so the temperature in the cabin rises faster than in the trunk. 3. Prolonged Exposure to Sunlight: If the car is exposed to the scorching sun for a long time, whether it's the cabin or the trunk, the entire interior temperature will become extremely high, and the flow of hot air inside will make the temperature uniform everywhere. It is also closely related to the conditions under which the car is parked.

What is the following distance when visibility is 200 meters in foggy weather?

When visibility on the highway is less than 200 meters, maintain a distance of more than 100 meters from the vehicle ahead in the same lane. The speed should not exceed 60 kilometers per hour, and fog lights, low beams, position lights, and front and rear position lights should be turned on. Here is some additional information: 1. Less than 100 meters: When visibility is less than 100 meters, turn on fog lights, low beams, position lights, front and rear position lights, and hazard warning flashers. The speed should not exceed 40 kilometers per hour, and maintain a distance of more than 50 meters from the vehicle ahead in the same lane. 2. Less than 50 meters: When visibility is less than 50 meters, turn on fog lights, low beams, position lights, front and rear position lights, and hazard warning flashers. The speed should not exceed 20 kilometers per hour, and exit the highway as soon as possible from the nearest exit.

What Causes the Car to Roll Backward When Reversing into a Parking Space?

Here are the specific reasons for the car rolling backward when reversing into a parking space: 1. Stalling on a slope: The car stalls during a hill start, and if the brake is not pressed in time after stalling, the car will roll backward. 2. Poor coordination: Inadequate coordination between the clutch and the brake, releasing the brake before the car has enough starting power is another reason for the car rolling backward. Below are some extended tips to prevent the car from rolling backward when reversing into a parking space: 1. Clutch: The clutch should be pressed quickly and released slowly. Before starting, slowly lift the clutch until it reaches the semi-engaged state, then stop lifting and maintain this state. 2. Brake: When the clutch reaches the semi-engaged state and the car shakes noticeably, gently release the brake. Once the car starts moving, fully release the brake. Whether pressing or releasing the brake, it should be done slowly, as pressing the brake abruptly can easily cause the car to stall.
