Release the brake button, remove the tire, and take off the brake caliper. Remove the rear brake caliper, use an E40 spline tool to detach the electronic brake motor, then turn the electronic brake shaft on the caliper clockwise with an E30 spline. Then use a special brake tool to push the brake caliper back (or gently pry it back with a screwdriver). Install the new brake pads, mount the electronic brake motor onto the caliper, and proceed with normal installation. After installation, press the electronic brake button several times.

What type of engine oil should be used for the new Mondeo 2.0T?

The new Mondeo 2.0T version uses 5W-30 semi-synthetic engine oil, while the 1.5T model requires 5W-20 full-synthetic engine oil. It is important to note that engine oils of different brands and specifications should not be mixed, as this can affect their performance and, in severe cases, damage the car's engine. Below is an introduction to the functions of engine oil: 1. Lubrication to reduce wear: The relative sliding between the engine's pistons and cylinders, as well as between the main shaft and bearings, causes wear. Engine oil forms a thick oil film between these sliding surfaces, separating the surfaces of the moving parts to reduce wear. 2. Cooling: Engine oil carries heat back to the oil tank and then dissipates it into the air, helping the radiator cool the engine. 3. Cleaning: Engine oil cycles carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, flushing away dirt generated on the parts through the flow of the lubricating oil.

How to Use the Cruise Control on the Grand Cherokee?

Press the cruise control switch located on the right-hand side switch group of the steering wheel. Once the speed meets the required conditions, press the set button to maintain the current speed. The plus and minus buttons next to it are for acceleration and deceleration. Below is an introduction to cruise control: 1. In principle, cruise control should be used on highways or fully enclosed roads. On non-enclosed roads, complex road conditions are not conducive to traffic safety. On national highways, some tractors lack sufficient power and may suddenly emerge from small intersections, posing a serious threat to vehicles on the highway. Under cruise control, drivers may be caught off guard. Repeated braking also makes it difficult to maintain a stable cruise control state, defeating the purpose of cruise control. 2. It is prohibited to use cruise control in rainy or snowy conditions. 3. It should also be disabled on winding mountain roads or roads with too many curves. Normally, when navigating curves, appropriate acceleration is needed to provide greater steering force. Under cruise control, the vehicle automatically maintains a constant speed, with the throttle controlled by the onboard computer, which can pose dangers when driving on curves. Under such conditions, drivers should appropriately control the vehicle's speed.
