If a car starts and then stalls automatically, this indicates that there is already a problem with the engine. Here are the solutions for a car that starts and then stalls automatically: 1. Inspection: When this issue occurs, focus on checking the spark plugs, ignition coils, and the entire ignition circuit. 2. Measures to Take: If the vehicle stalls while driving, first press the brake pedal firmly (avoid pumping the brakes), then assess the distance of vehicles behind to determine the braking force. If a vehicle is following closely, avoid slamming on the brakes to prevent a rear-end collision. Although the steering wheel may feel heavy, apply force to adjust the vehicle's direction. Maintain control of the vehicle's direction, press the brake pedal, and slowly pull over to the side of the road. During the process of pulling over, you can attempt to restart the engine.

What is the reason for the clunking sound when braking hard?

When braking hard and hearing a clunking sound, the reason is that the vehicle is in a critical state of intermittent rolling between braking and locking. When the ABS system is activated by hard braking, it produces a clunking sound, which is a normal phenomenon—simply press the brake pedal firmly to the end. Additionally, worn engine mounts can also cause car vibrations. Engine mounts are essentially the shock absorption system for the engine, responsible for absorbing minor vibrations during operation. If the engine mounts are faulty, these vibrations can transfer to the steering wheel and cabin, causing shaking at idle. When the car engine is idling and the electrical system is turned on, it can easily lead to vehicle vibrations as the engine load increases due to the electrical system being activated.
