The reasons for abnormal noise when shaking the front wheels after parking are: 1. Faulty front shock absorbers; 2. Loose front wheel drive half-shafts; 3. Loose chassis screws and rubber components; 4. Loose ball joints and bearings; 5. Cracked wheel hub bearings; 6. Insufficient grease in the wheel hub; 7. Bent steering tie rods. The inspection steps for abnormal noise in the front wheels are: 1. Use a lift to raise the vehicle; 2. Check if the screws and rubber components at the front of the chassis are loose; 3. Inspect the shock absorbers for proper condition before disassembly; 4. Remove the front wheels to inspect the bearings; 5. Check if the front wheel drive half-shafts are loose; 6. Determine the cause of the fault and replace the necessary components.

How many points are deducted for driving in a one-way street?

Driving in a one-way street will result in a deduction of 3 points. Here are the specific details: Methods to avoid driving against the flow in a one-way street: One-way streets have clearly marked prohibited sections. Not all one-way streets continue indefinitely. Generally, traffic police departments designate one-way streets in areas such as hospitals, schools, and government offices, so it's essential to pay close attention. Prohibited sections usually have clear signage, so it's important to check in advance. How to avoid mistakenly entering a one-way street: If you accidentally enter a one-way street, do not continue driving forward, as you might encounter patrolling traffic police or surveillance cameras. Without affecting other vehicles, you should make a U-turn as quickly as possible and proceed in the correct direction.

Does Replacing a Single Door Qualify as an Accident Vehicle?

Replacing a single door does not necessarily classify a vehicle as an accident vehicle; it depends on the specific circumstances. An accident vehicle refers to one that has suffered damage from non-natural wear and tear incidents, leading to a decline in mechanical performance and economic value. Accident vehicles are categorized into two types: minor accidents and major accidents. Minor accidents involve the replacement of non-structural components such as exterior panels, lights, bumpers, fenders, or doors, which do not alter the vehicle's fixed structure. Major accidents involve damage to non-removable vehicle components, such as the front frame extending to the A-pillar, requiring welding or cutting for repairs if deformed or damaged. The following scenarios qualify as accident vehicles: The vehicle's frame or main beam has been bent, deformed, or broken and subsequently repaired; the rear quarter panel (side panel) has been cut or replaced after a collision. The radiator and its support frame have been repaired or replaced after being damaged in a collision. The door, lower sill frame, or A/B/C pillars have been bent, deformed, and subsequently repaired or replaced. The entire vehicle has rolled over in an accident, resulting in body deformation, dents, fractures, and subsequent repairs or bodywork.

Is Nitrous Oxide Modification Illegal?

Nitrous oxide modification is not illegal. Here are the details: Reason: Vehicle owners do not need to apply for modification registration if the changes do not affect safety or license plate recognition, such as installing front and rear anti-collision devices on small and micro passenger vehicles, or adding windshields, water tanks, toolboxes, spare tire racks, etc. to freight vehicles. Introduction to Nitrous Oxide: The so-called nitrous oxide acceleration for car engines actually uses nitrous oxide (N2O), not nitrogen. Working Principle: The principle involves injecting nitrous oxide from an onboard cylinder into the working cylinders, increasing the oxygen content in the engine's intake air while also increasing the fuel injection volume from the fuel supply system. This temporarily boosts the engine's output power without altering the engine's structure.

How Far Can You Drive When the Fuel Gauge Flashes?

When the fuel gauge light comes on, a car can generally run for about thirty kilometers. Here is some relevant information about the fuel gauge light coming on: 1. If there is no gas station nearby: Maintain an economical driving mode, turn off all electrical appliances such as the air conditioning, reduce the load, close the car windows, control the speed steadily, shift gears reasonably, try to maintain a constant speed, avoid rapid acceleration and overtaking, and avoid driving at low speeds. 2. The harm of refueling after the fuel gauge light comes on: The fuel pump needs to be immersed in gasoline for cooling. Refueling after the fuel gauge light comes on will cause the fuel pump to not be fully cooled for a long time, thereby shortening the service life of the fuel pump and even potentially causing the fuel pump to overheat and burn out. 3. When is the best time to refuel: When the fuel gauge is below 1/4, refuel in the morning or evening.

Can Minor Scratches Be Repaired by Polishing?

Polishing can repair minor scratches. Car polishing is a step in the car detailing process, performed before waxing, sealing, or coating. Here is more related information: 1. Light scratches: After prolonged use, improper care may cause minor scratches on the car's paint surface that do not expose the primer. These scratches are quite visible under sunlight and can usually be removed with professional polishing. 2. Paint oxidation: When a car is exposed to strong sunlight for extended periods, the oils in the paint film gradually evaporate, significantly reducing the paint's gloss and depth over time. An oxidation layer forms on the surface, turning it white and shortening the paint's lifespan. Severe oxidation can be repaired through compounding and polishing. 3. Traffic film: While driving, a strong electrostatic layer forms on the car's paint surface, which attracts dust, grease, and other contaminants from the air. Over time, this forms a hard traffic film that can cause oxidation and corrosion of the paint. This can be treated with compounding and polishing methods.

When to Use Recirculation and Fresh Air Mode?

Below are the situations when to use car recirculation and fresh air mode respectively: 1. When to use fresh air mode: 1. When driving a newly purchased car: Open the fresh air mode as much as possible to maintain air circulation between inside and outside the vehicle, allowing harmful gases inside the car to volatilize and release as soon as possible. 2. During long-distance highway driving: If recirculation mode is maintained all the time, it can easily lead to insufficient oxygen in the car, resulting in driver fatigue and traffic accidents. In such cases, it's necessary to open the fresh air mode to replenish fresh air inside the car. 3. When smoking: Ensure smoke can be quickly discharged outside the car. This not only takes responsibility for your own health but also reduces the harm of secondhand smoke to family members in the car. 2. When to use recirculation mode: 1. During traffic jams: Recirculation can effectively prevent exhaust gas from outside entering the car, avoiding harm to us. 2. When encountering sandstorms or dusty weather on the road: It can prevent dust from outside entering the car and also reduce the impact of sand on the air conditioning filter.
