Engine vibration when braking in place is caused by uneven wear of the brake discs. This phenomenon primarily occurs due to prolonged use of intermittent braking (pumping the brakes), which results in uneven brake disc surfaces with alternating high and low spots. When braking, the brake pads clamp onto these uneven surfaces, causing vibration. The braking system consists of a vacuum booster, master cylinder, wheel cylinders, brake pads, and brake discs. The function of the brakes is to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a stop. The working principle involves converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into thermal energy through friction between the brake pads and brake drums, as well as between the tires and the road surface, thereby slowing or stopping the vehicle.

What Happens If You Add Too Much Engine Oil?

Here are the impacts of excessive engine oil on a car: 1. During operation, various components of the engine will experience intense agitation. 2. It increases internal power loss in the engine, causing more oil to splash onto the cylinder walls, leading to oil burning and exhaust issues. 3. Excessive oil creates significant resistance for the high-speed rotating crankshaft and connecting rod mechanism, resulting in reduced power output. 4. More oil enters the combustion chamber, worsening exhaust emissions. In severe cases, it may cause damage or poisoning to the catalytic converter. 5. It increases fuel consumption and oil burning during vehicle operation.

Why is there water under the car seat?

The reasons for water under the car seat are as follows: Not closing the car window tightly on rainy days: After getting out of the car, not confirming whether the car window is tightly closed can cause rainwater to drift into various parts of the car from the loosely closed window. Over time, water will drip under the car's cabin. Problems with the drainage outlet: After ruling out human causes, if there is still water dripping under the car's cabin, the car's drainage outlets should be checked. Firstly, the car has four drainage outlets: the front two are for draining the sunroof, and the rear two are for draining water flowing on the car. If there is a problem with the drainage outlets, maintenance is required.
