The reasons for body shaking at high speeds are as follows: 1. Misaligned positioning angles: The front wheel positioning angles are misaligned, with excessive toe-in. 2. Wheel issues: Low front tire pressure, deformed front wheel spokes, incorrect number of tire bolts, or tire imbalance due to repairs. 3. Drivetrain faults: Loose installation of drivetrain components, bent drive shaft, power imbalance, or deformed front axle. 4. Damaged shock absorbers: Inconsistent stiffness of the front leaf springs, causing vibration at higher speeds and steering wheel shaking. To diagnose, lift the drive axle, secure the front wheels with safety blocks, start the engine, and gradually shift into higher gears until the drive wheels reach the test vibration speed. If both the body and steering wheel shake, the vibration is drivetrain-related.

Is it easy to repair a transmission that is leaking oil after being hit by a stone?

Whether a transmission is easy to repair after being hit by a stone and leaking oil depends on the extent of the collision. Here is an introduction to the situation of a transmission leaking oil after being hit by a stone: 1. Check for external oil leaks: Pay special attention to whether there is oil leakage at the front and rear crankshaft oil seals. A broken, damaged, or aged front crankshaft oil seal, or wear on the contact surface between the crankshaft pulley and the oil seal, can cause oil leakage at the front of the crankshaft. A broken or damaged rear crankshaft oil seal or an excessively small oil return hole in the rear main bearing cap that obstructs oil return can cause oil leakage at the rear of the crankshaft. 2. Oil leakage at the front and rear oil seals: If there is oil seepage in multiple areas such as the front and rear valve covers, front and rear valve lifter chambers, oil filter, and oil pan gasket, but no obvious oil leak can be found, check the crankcase ventilation system. Clean the crankcase ventilation pipes and check if the PCV valve is malfunctioning due to carbon buildup and sticking. 3. Oil pressure: If the oil filter and some oil pipe connections still leak after tightening, check whether the oil pressure is too high and whether the oil pressure relief valve is malfunctioning.

What does the automotive TCU mean?

Automotive TCU refers to the automatic transmission control system, which utilizes computer and power electronics drive technology to achieve vehicle automatic gear shifting. It can eliminate differences in driver shifting techniques, reduce driver workload, and improve driving safety and fuel efficiency. The automotive TCU consists of a 16-bit or 32-bit processor, signal processing circuits, power drive modules, etc. Types of automotive TCUs include CVT transmissions, dual-clutch transmissions, AT transmissions, and AMT transmissions. The automotive TCU is a mechanical or hydraulic device that performs mechanical power conversion and is one of the main components of the vehicle's transmission system.

Why Won't the Mercedes Windshield Washer Spray?

Reasons why the Mercedes windshield washer won't spray are as follows: 1. If the Mercedes washer isn't spraying, first check if the pump motor is working. If not, inspect whether the fuse is blown, if the wiring connections are secure, or if the pump motor itself is burnt out. 2. Check if the water hose is cracked, if connections have come loose, or if the nozzles are clogged. Cracked hoses need replacement, loose connections should be reattached, and clogged nozzles can be cleared with thin wire. 3. If the reservoir has water and the motor is working, you can disconnect the hose below the nozzle and activate the washer switch. If water sprays from the hose, the nozzle is clogged and can be cleared with thin wire.

What does it mean to fail to smoothly shift gears up or down as instructed in Subject 3?

Failing to smoothly shift gears up or down as instructed in Subject 3 refers to not following the instructions, not operating smoothly, and not shifting gears up or down as required. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Not following the instructions: When performing gear shifting operations, the computer will issue two commands: 'Please shift up to a certain gear' and 'Please shift down to a certain gear.' You must perform the corresponding operation based on the current gear of the vehicle and the computer's voice command. If no corresponding operation is performed after the computer issues the command, the computer will judge it as a failure. Another requirement is that the gear shifting operation must be completed within the distance range specified for the gear shifting project. Exceeding the distance will naturally be considered as not following the instructions. 2. Not operating smoothly: Starting to forcefully shift gears without fully depressing the clutch, causing gear collision. Another situation is that after shifting gears, the student is in a hurry to release the clutch, causing the vehicle to produce a noticeable jerk, i.e., feeling the front of the car suddenly nod downward. Of course, the most common unsteady operation is the mismatch between speed and gear, causing gear dragging when the speed does not reach the speed of the higher gear during the upshifting process. 3. Not shifting gears up or down as required: After the computer issues a command to shift up or down, shifting up or down incorrectly and not shifting into the specified gear as required.

What Causes Engine Misfire in Cars?

Engine misfire in cars can be caused by: 1. Poor sealing of pistons, cylinder walls, valves, or valve seats leading to low cylinder pressure and misfire; 2. Severe burning of distributor cap contacts in the ignition system causing misfire; 3. Air leaks in pipes allowing air to enter the cylinders, preventing the engine from functioning properly and resulting in misfire; 4. Excessive carbon buildup due to low spark plug heat range causing spark plug leakage, weak spark, or complete spark plug failure leading to misfire; 5. Clogged fuel injectors due to carbon deposits preventing precise fuel injection and atomization, which can cause injector seizure and engine misfire.

How to unlock hidden ECU functions for Baojun 560?

Here are the methods to unlock hidden ECU functions for Baojun 560: 1. Vehicle locator function: Quickly press the lock button twice in succession to activate the vehicle locator. This will cause the Baojun 560's hazard lights to flash up to 20 times, making it visible in dark nights or crowded underground parking lots. 2. Door-open reminder when locking: If any door is not properly closed, pressing the lock button will trigger 3 beeps and 3 hazard light flashes to alert the owner. 3. Driving door-open reminder: When any of the three non-driver doors aren't properly locked, the auxiliary lock on the driver's side won't engage - it will automatically spring back each time you press it, reminding you of unlocked doors. 4. Tailgate emergency release: There's an 8mm square emergency release slot on the tailgate. In emergencies, insert a wide key or hard object and twist to open. 5. Starting with low battery key: When the remote key battery is low, use the hidden mechanical key to lock/unlock doors. To start, place the key close to the start button to detect weak signals. Replace batteries promptly when depleted. 6. Emergency start/stop: Hold the start button for 12 seconds for emergency ignition. For emergency shutdown, either hold for 2 seconds or press 3 times within 3 seconds to force engine stop.
