What Causes Brake Pedal Vibration?

Brake pedal vibration is caused by the following reasons: 1. Damaged shock absorbers. If the shock absorbers fail, the impact from the road surface to the tires will be transmitted to the car body without attenuation, causing vibration of the entire vehicle. 2. Tire balance issues. Situations such as after tire repair, rim deformation, abnormal tire wear, large nails puncturing the tire, or large stones stuck in the tire can disrupt the tire balance. 3. Half-shaft resonance. This is usually caused by bending of the half-shaft in front-wheel drive vehicles or the drive shaft in rear-wheel drive vehicles. The bending disrupts the dynamic balance of the drive shaft, leading to resonance during driving. Vibration typically occurs at certain speeds and disappears when the speed is increased or decreased beyond that range.

What is the ground clearance of Santana and Jetta?

Santana's minimum ground clearance is 190mm, while Jetta's minimum ground clearance is 109mm. Ground clearance indicates a vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and stumps without collision. The minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding the wheels) and the road surface when the vehicle is fully loaded, representing its ability to overcome obstacles. The smaller the ground clearance, the worse the ability to overcome obstacles. Jetta is a brand under FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd. Its body dimensions are 4501mm in length, 1704mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2604mm, a top speed of 200km/h, and equipped with the EA211 series engine.

Will the warranty be voided if the second maintenance is overdue?

Overdue second maintenance will not void the warranty. After the second maintenance, there are no strict mileage or time limits as with the first maintenance. Even if overdue, it won't void the warranty, but maintenance is still necessary. The maintenance primarily involves changing the engine oil and oil filter, while the air filter and cabin air filter may be cleaned depending on usage. Over time, engine oil deteriorates significantly under high temperature and pressure conditions inside the engine, losing its protective properties. Therefore, even with low mileage, regular oil and oil filter changes are essential.

Why does the car shake when the brake is pressed?

The shaking when pressing the brake may be caused by uneven wear of the brake discs. This phenomenon mainly occurs when the driver frequently uses intermittent braking (point braking) over a long period, causing the brake discs to develop an uneven surface with alternating high and low spots. When braking, the brake pads gripping these uneven surfaces can lead to shaking. Therefore, drivers should use the brakes properly and according to standard practices to avoid such issues later. Additionally, when the car's electrical system is turned on while the engine is idling, it can cause the vehicle to shake. The engine load increases due to the electrical system being activated, leading to a drop in idle speed. To compensate for this shaking caused by the idle drop, the engine will automatically raise the RPM slightly.

What is the purpose of a secondary air pump?

The secondary air pump functions to inject air into the exhaust manifold after a cold engine start. Its purpose is to enable the incomplete combustion of the air-fuel mixture to undergo a second combustion process within the exhaust pipe, thereby reducing emissions and meeting current stringent environmental requirements. The working principle of the secondary air pump involves driving the air pump via the crankshaft belt when the engine is running, pumping a large volume of low-pressure air through a hose into the diverter valve. The secondary air system is one of the external purification devices designed to reduce exhaust emissions. By introducing additional air into the exhaust gases, it increases the oxygen content, allowing unburned harmful substances such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons to undergo further combustion under high-temperature conditions.

Does a Lifetime Driver's License Require Annual Inspection?

Lifetime driver's licenses require annual inspection, with exemptions under the following circumstances: 1. If the vehicle has no demerit points recorded within a scoring cycle, it may be exempt from inspection for that cycle; 2. Holders of a C1 lifetime driver's license may be exempt from inspection for the current scoring cycle if they accumulate fewer than 12 demerit points within that cycle. Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and registration certificates, equivalent to an annual physical examination for vehicles based on the technical safety requirements for motor vehicle operation. Vehicle annual inspections help promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.
