The working process of ABS includes stages such as conventional braking, brake pressure maintenance, brake pressure reduction, and brake pressure increase. The anti-lock braking system performs pulsed braking at a frequency of 6 to 10 times per second, alternating between braking and releasing, using electronic intelligent control instead of manual control to prevent wheel lock-up. This ensures the wheels always obtain maximum braking force while maintaining steering flexibility. Additional information: 1. ABS working principle: It consists of control devices and ABS warning lights. In different ABS systems, the structural form and working principle of the brake pressure regulation device may vary, and the internal structure and control logic of the electronic control device may also differ. 2. The function of the ABS system: The anti-lock braking system can improve the safety factor of a vehicle during emergency braking. In other words, cars without ABS are more prone to wheel lock-up when emergency braking is applied in critical situations, meaning the steering wheel cannot be turned, thereby increasing the risk factor and potentially leading to severe consequences.

What Are the Methods for Cleaning Carbon Deposits in Cars?

Methods for cleaning carbon deposits in cars: 1. Cleaning the throttle body to remove carbon deposits: Remove the engine cover, take off the throttle body, clean it with carburetor cleaner, dry it with a cloth, and reinstall it; 2. Cleaning the engine internals to remove carbon deposits: Open the oil cap, pour in the entire can of cleaner, close the oil cap, idle the engine for 10 minutes, then turn it off to achieve the cleaning effect; 3. Cleaning fuel system carbon deposits: Add a full bottle of fuel additive to the fuel tank before refueling, one bottle is sufficient for a 50 to 80-liter fuel tank; 4. Cleaning intake system carbon deposits: Pour the intake system cleaner into the reservoir of a dedicated cleaning device, connect it to the intake system, start the engine, and use vacuum to draw the cleaner into the intake lines to achieve the cleaning purpose.

Is it legal to install a rear wing on a car?

Installing a rear wing on a car is illegal. Adding a rear wing to a car is considered an illegal modification. According to the traffic police department, based on the motor vehicle registration regulations, modifications such as altering tires and rims, adding rear wings, lights, or exhaust pipes are all classified as illegal modifications. The vehicle must be restored to its original condition promptly to pass inspection, and penalties such as fines and license suspension may also be imposed. Post-modification handling method: If a vehicle owner wishes to change the body color, replace the engine, or change the body or frame, they can proceed with the changes first and then submit a modification registration to the vehicle management office within 10 days. According to regulations, the engine and frame cannot be replaced simultaneously, and the vehicle registration information on the driving license must be updated promptly. If the owner changes the body color, replaces the engine, or alters the frame, they can apply for modification at the vehicle management department. They need to bring the origin certificates of the body and frame, vehicle registration certificate, driving license, and the owner's ID card. After passing the safety inspection, a new driving license and vehicle registration certificate can be issued.

What is the normal range for car tire pressure?

Car tire pressure is considered normal between 2.3 to 2.8 bar. In summer when temperatures are high, the gas inside the tires expands, so the tire pressure should generally refer to the minimum pressure value indicated on the tire. In winter, it can fluctuate within the above range. For old tires, it is recommended to use the lower limit as the standard. If the wear is severe, please replace them promptly to prevent blowouts during driving. Both overinflated and underinflated tires will affect tire performance and driving safety. When tire pressure is too high, it reduces tire adhesion and affects braking performance. Drivers may feel vibration in the steering wheel, and in severe cases, it may even cause the car to pull to one side. When tire pressure is too low, it increases the contact area between the tire and the ground, raising the friction coefficient, accelerating tire wear, and reducing tire lifespan. Additionally, low tire pressure increases movement in various parts of the tire, causing excessive rolling, abnormal heat buildup, weakening of the cord and rubber functions, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and resulting in abnormal wear.

Why Does the Brake Make Noise?

Reasons why the brake makes noise: 1. Using low-quality or overly hard brake pads; 2. Presence of sand or foreign objects between the brake pads and brake disc; 3. Brake pad warning—if the wear level of the brake pads reaches the warning line, it will emit a squeaking alarm sound, indicating the need for immediate replacement. Brake noise is a significant issue and must not be ignored. Like tires, brakes are the first line of defense for the driver's safety, so negligence is not an option. Solutions for brake noise: 1. Use genuine, quality-certified brake pads and regularly inspect the brake system; 2. Severe wear on the brake disc—wear on the brake disc can form deep grooves around the disc, causing noise when the brake pads rub against the edges of these grooves. If the grooves are not too deep, the issue can be resolved by grinding the edges of the brake pads to avoid friction with the groove edges. If the grooves are already very deep, it is recommended to replace the brake disc.

Can You Shift Gears Without Pressing the Clutch?

You can shift gears without pressing the clutch. To achieve clutchless shifting, three conditions must be met: the gear ratios of adjacent gears must be very close, the engine speed before shifting must be sufficiently high, and the shifting action must be extremely fast. Only when these three conditions are satisfied can the transmission ensure that the gear linear speed is sufficient to quickly engage the next gear while maintaining uninterrupted power transmission, allowing the synchronizer to also engage rapidly. Situations where the clutch must be pressed in a car: 1. Before starting the car, press the clutch pedal to disengage the clutch, separating the engine from the drivetrain, then shift into first gear and gradually release the clutch pedal to engage the clutch smoothly. 2. The clutch must be pressed when shifting gears. During driving, to adapt to changing conditions, the drivetrain often needs to switch between different gears. Pressing the clutch pedal before shifting interrupts power transmission, reducing engagement shock and ensuring smooth gear changes. 3. During emergency braking, without a clutch, the drivetrain could be subjected to loads exceeding its capacity, potentially damaging components. The clutch allows relative movement between its driving and driven parts to mitigate this risk.
