What Causes a Regular Zizzing Sound from Tires?

Tires making a regular zizzing sound may be due to foreign objects on the tires or brake pad noise. It is advisable to promptly inspect, clean, or replace the brake pads. Below is the method for replacing brake pads: 1. Release the handbrake and loosen the hub nuts of the wheel where the brake needs to be replaced. Note: only loosen them, do not remove them completely. 2. Remove the screws of the brake caliper. 3. Secure the brake caliper with a rope to avoid damaging the brake line. Then remove the old brake pads. 4. Use a C-clamp to push the brake piston back to the innermost position and install the new brake pads. Note: Before doing this, open the hood and unscrew the cap of the brake fluid reservoir. This is because the brake fluid level will rise when pushing the brake piston. 5. Reinstall the brake caliper and tighten the caliper screws to the required torque. 6. Reinstall the tire and tighten the hub nuts.

A rhythmic hissing sound from the tires is likely caused by small stones, nails, or metal fragments stuck in the tread. I've encountered this situation myself, where the noise resembles a constant rubbing sound while driving. This occurs because foreign objects penetrate the tire and rub against the road surface. If not addressed promptly, it may scratch the tread or cause slow air leakage, posing significant safety risks. It's advisable to immediately find a safe place to pull over and inspect the tire surface for any obvious lodged objects. If found, try removing them with tools. However, if the sound persists or the cause remains unclear, it's best to drive to a nearby repair shop for professional inspection. Regularly cleaning the tire grooves can prevent such issues, ensuring safer and more worry-free driving.

I also used to hear a constant ticking sound from the tires when I first started driving, as regular as a clock. This is usually caused by unbalanced tires or uneven wear. Check if the tread depth is normal or if the wheels are out of round or deformed. Sometimes poor driving habits, like slamming on the brakes or taking turns too fast, can accelerate tire problems. The sound might become more noticeable at certain speeds, like around 40 km/h. You can't adjust it yourself—you'll need to go to a tire shop for a dynamic balance check. Don't ignore this sound, or it could lead to a blowout on long trips. Regularly check your tire condition and ensure proper tire pressure to greatly reduce the chance of strange noises. Drive carefully—safety first.

How Long Does It Take to Transfer Vehicle Records?

For motor vehicle record transfers, the review process can be completed within three days from the date of acceptance by the vehicle management office. Transferring records means moving the vehicle's file from the local vehicle management office. The vehicle's file is equivalent to its household registration. During the transfer, a new registration location and owner (the transfer destination) will be specified, and once designated, it is difficult to change. After the transfer, there are generally two scenarios. The first is transferring records for relocation, which means moving the vehicle from the original licensing vehicle management office to another one, with the vehicle owner remaining unchanged, still belonging to the original owner. The second scenario is transferring records for a used car sale, where the vehicle is sold to someone else and transferred under their name, making the car belong to the new owner. This situation involves both transferring records and ownership. If the vehicle is not registered after the transfer, the original owner also bears some responsibility. Failing to register after transferring records may have the following consequences: restrictions on the owner's ability to process other transfer registration services, the vehicle being considered a "black car" if there is no record at the vehicle management office, resulting in 12 penalty points, a warning, and a fine if caught. The original owner may also be involved if an accident occurs. If the original owner's license plate meets the conditions for retaining the "old" plate, they still cannot continue to use it later. Most importantly, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is recommended to complete the registration and licensing procedures within one month after the transfer.

What Are the Common Knowledge of Daily Maintenance for Family Cars?

Daily maintenance work is very simple, which can be summarized as: cleaning, tightening, inspection, and replenishment. 1. Cleaning: The air contains a large amount of dust, mud, and acidic substances, which not only easily adhere to leaked fuel and form a hard insulating layer under high-temperature baking, reducing the heat dissipation performance of mechanical parts, but are also easily adsorbed by the static electricity of the car body, eroding the paint surface and causing oxidation of the car paint. General cleaning should not only focus on the cleanliness of the car paint surface but also pay attention to the cleanliness of the interior, engine, car air conditioning, and wheel hubs. 2. Tightening: After the vehicle is cleaned, all connecting parts should be tightened. Due to vibrations, bumps, and swings during driving, connecting parts will inevitably become loose and worn. Therefore, timely tightening is necessary during daily maintenance. The daily tightening of connecting parts is directly related to driving safety, especially for important components such as steering, braking, and transmission, which should not be taken lightly. 3. Inspection: After tightening the connecting parts, the height and quality of the fluids should be checked, as fluids will gradually deplete and oxidize under high temperatures, leading to a decrease in fluid levels and a decline in performance. Check the height of the battery fluid level, the height of the lubricating oil level, and the height of the coolant level. 4. Replenishment: Fluid replenishment: If no obvious deterioration of the fluid is found during inspection, check for leaks. If leaks are found, they should be eliminated, and the same grade of fluid should be replenished in time.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Baojun 310?

The fuel tank capacity of the Baojun 310 is 30 liters. In the same class, the 2020 Kia Pegas 1.4L Automatic Comfort Sunroof version has a fuel tank capacity of 40 liters, while the 2022 YARiS L ZhiXiang 1.5L CVT Leading PLUS version has a fuel tank capacity of 42 liters. Maintenance of the fuel tank is as follows: Check for fuel leaks in the fuel lines; ensure the vent hole is unobstructed; the filter screen at the fuel filler neck should remain intact; the sealing gasket on the fuel filler cap should also be in good condition. Maintenance of the fuel tank is as follows: Drain any accumulated water and sediment from the fuel tank, and inspect the fuel line connections and valves for any signs of leakage. For fuel tank caps equipped with air and vapor valves, also check that the vent holes are clear. The filter screen at the fuel filler neck should be kept intact to prevent impurities from entering the fuel tank during refueling, which could clog the fuel lines. The sealing gasket on the fuel filler cap should also be in good condition to prevent fuel from spilling out while driving. If the owner wants to check the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the needle is close to E, it indicates that the fuel is almost empty, and when it is near F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.

Is the Transmission the Same for the Bora Legend and the New Bora?

The Bora Legend and the New Bora are equipped with the same engine, although there are slight differences in tuning. Additionally, they share identical transmissions, chassis steering, wheel braking systems, and primary and passive safety features. In terms of control configurations, the Bora Legend has an additional cruise control function, which is its only advantage. On the other hand, the New Bora comes standard with LED daytime running lights across all models, highlighting the distinction between the two. The New Bora is overall larger than the Bora Legend, as it is built on Volkswagen's new MQB platform—the same platform used for the new Sagitar and Lavida—while the Bora Legend remains on the PQ34 platform. As a result, the New Bora offers significantly better space and comfort compared to the Bora Legend.
