Sylphy brake pedal hard to press down may be caused by vacuum booster pump failure or dirty brake fluid. Vacuum booster pump failure: The reason why the Sylphy's brake pedal is hard to press down is due to vacuum booster pump failure. During braking, the vacuum entering the booster pump is controlled to move the diaphragm, and through the linkage device, the push rod on the diaphragm assists the driver's foot force to press and push the brake pedal, thereby amplifying the force applied by the driver. If the car's vacuum booster pump leaks or malfunctions, the brake will lose its main force, making it difficult to press down. The solution is to promptly take the vehicle to a repair shop for inspection and replace the vacuum booster pump to prevent accidents. Dirty brake fluid: Dirty brake fluid can lead to poor braking performance or increased stopping distance. The boiling point of brake fluid decreases, making it prone to boiling in the brake lines and generating bubbles, which significantly reduces braking effectiveness. Additionally, long-term accumulation of dirt can clog the lines. The solution is to regularly replace the brake fluid.

Does the new car's central control screen come with a protective film?

It depends on the actual situation of the 4S store. Some new cars come with it, while others don't. Here are the relevant details: 1. Whether it is good to apply a film to the car's central control screen depends on the specific situation. The advantage of applying a film is that it can protect the central control screen and prevent damage. Although the central control screen will not shatter like a mobile phone or tablet, daily wiping with a cloth may still cause wear and tear, and replacing the central control screen is relatively expensive. From this perspective, applying a film to the central control screen is beneficial. 2. The downside of applying a film to the central control screen is that over time, marks may appear on the screen, affecting the car's aesthetics. Additionally, applying a film may make it difficult to see the content displayed on the screen, reducing the driver's experience.

How Much Does an Electric Sedan's Battery Weigh?

36V10ah battery pack weighs 12.5kg. 48V20ah battery pack weighs 26kg. Here are the relevant details: 1. Electric vehicle batteries are divided into two main categories: storage batteries and fuel cells. Storage batteries are suitable for pure electric vehicles, including lead-acid batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, sodium-sulfur batteries, secondary lithium batteries, and air batteries. 2. The BYD Qin uses lithium iron phosphate batteries with a capacity of 13 kWh, providing a pure electric range of 70 km. The weight is around 250kg for the BYD F6, with batteries weighing approximately 310kg. 3. Lead-acid batteries typically weigh around 17kg. The 'New National Standard' increases the maximum speed of electric vehicles from the current 20km/h to 26km/h, while setting three categories with weights (excluding batteries) not exceeding 40kg (electric bicycles), 50kg (light electric vehicles), and 55kg (electric motorcycles).

Left Foot or Right Foot for the Clutch?

In manual transmission vehicles, the clutch is located on the left side and is typically controlled by the left foot; the accelerator and brake are on the right side, controlled by the right foot. Automatic transmission vehicles do not have a clutch. The clutch is situated within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission, with the clutch assembly secured to the rear plane of the flywheel by screws. The output shaft of the clutch serves as the input shaft of the transmission. Relevant information about the clutch is as follows: 1. Introduction One: The clutch is part of the vehicle's drivetrain system and is a crucial component for the car. The clutch is responsible for connecting or disconnecting the engine from the transmission and is installed between the engine and the transmission. The clutch pressure plate is fixed to the engine flywheel, with the clutch disc located between the pressure plate and the flywheel. 2. Introduction Two: When stopping the vehicle, pressing the clutch effectively cuts off the power. At this point, the brake acts on the tires without affecting the engine operation, thus preventing the engine from stalling.

Where is the spare tire located in the Odyssey?

Odyssey's spare tire is placed in the floor compartment below the area between the driver's seat and the front passenger seat in the first row. Here is more information about spare tires: 1. Spare tires are generally divided into full-size spare tires and non-full-size spare tires. A full-size spare tire has exactly the same specifications and size as the other four tires on the vehicle, allowing it to replace any temporarily or permanently unusable tire. A non-full-size spare tire has a slightly smaller diameter and width compared to the other four tires, so it can only be used as a temporary replacement and must be installed on non-driven wheels with a maximum speed not exceeding 80km/h. 2. A spare tire is actually for emergency use and is not intended for long-term use. Regardless of its width, manufacturers have special production and usage requirements for spare tires. Since spare tires are not routinely used on the vehicle and have no wear, an unworn tire is different from a heavily worn one, and using a spare tire on the vehicle inherently carries certain safety risks. During use, users should not replace the original tires with the spare tire after the vehicle has traveled a certain distance.

What Causes the Functional Limitations of the Active Brake Assist System?

The possible reasons for the functional limitations of the Active Brake Assist System are as follows: 1. The radar sensor system temporarily stops operating, possibly due to interference from electromagnetic radiation emitted by nearby TV stations, radio stations, or other electromagnetic radiation sources; 2. The system is operating outside the working temperature range; 3. The vehicle's voltage is too low. Additional information: 1. Content 1: The display message will disappear automatically, and the Active Brake Assist System will resume operation. If the display message does not disappear, you can stop and restart the engine, paying attention to road and traffic conditions when stopping. 2. Content 2: The Active Brake System uses radar to measure the distance to the vehicle ahead or obstacles, and the data analysis module compares the measured distance with the warning distance and safe distance. If the distance is less than the warning distance, an alarm will be triggered.

How Long Can a Car Be Left Unused Without Affecting Its Performance?

Generally, a car should not be left parked and unused for more than 15 days. If there's no urgent need to drive, it's advisable to take the car out for a short drive around the neighborhood in the evening. This practice helps protect the car, as prolonged inactivity can lead to damage. Common issues arising from a stationary car include: (1) Thickening of fluids: Over time, the fluids inside the car become more viscous and settle at the bottom of the engine. Upon restarting, it's essential to warm up the car to ensure even distribution of fluids throughout the engine, preventing excessive wear. (2) Battery discharge: The car battery continuously discharges, which is harmful. Many have experienced that leaving a car unused for one or two months results in a discharged battery, making it impossible to start the car without a jump-start. Regular short drives can prevent this and extend battery life. (3) Tire bulging: Tires also suffer from prolonged inactivity. When a car remains stationary, the tires bear constant pressure at fixed points, leading to uneven tire pressure. In hot weather, this can cause bulging, significantly reducing safety.
