What Causes High-Speed Brake Vibration?

High-speed brake vibration occurs due to the following reasons: 1. After prolonged driving with multiple braking instances, the brake discs reach high temperatures. When emergency braking triggers the ABS system at this stage. 2. ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) operates as electronically controlled pulse braking, where the brake caliper alternately clamps and releases the brake disc. This intermittent forceful stretching generates heat during deceleration. 3. Excessive heat causes brake rotor deformation. The warped disc then exhibits wave-like distortion. During subsequent high-speed braking, when constrained by calipers, this uneven disc surface vibrates. These vibrations transmit through steering linkages and suspension to the vehicle body and steering wheel, causing body tremors and directional instability.

What is Independent Suspension?

Independent suspension refers to a suspension system where there is no connection between the wheels on either side. Here is more information about automotive suspension: 1. Definition: The suspension system is a connecting structural system between the vehicle body, frame, and wheels. This system includes components such as shock absorbers, suspension springs, anti-roll bars, suspension subframes, lower control arms, longitudinal rods, steering knuckle arms, rubber bushings, and linkages. 2. Function: The suspension system transmits forces and torques between the wheels and the frame, buffers impacts from uneven road surfaces to the frame or body, and dampens resulting vibrations to ensure smooth vehicle operation. 3. Suspension Structure: A typical suspension structure consists of elastic elements, guiding mechanisms, and shock absorbers. Some structures also include bump stops and stabilizer bars. Elastic elements come in various forms, such as leaf springs, air springs, coil springs, and torsion bars. Modern passenger cars often use coil springs and torsion bars, while high-end luxury buses employ air springs.

Does leaving the air conditioning on when turning off the engine have any impact?

Leaving the air conditioning on when turning off the engine does have an impact, which includes: 1. If the air conditioning is not turned off when the engine is shut down, the compressor will start running together during the next startup, increasing the load on the motor; 2. Generally, it is not advisable to turn on the air conditioning when the engine is cold, as it may damage the engine; 3. Turning off the air conditioning about 2 minutes before shutting down the engine allows the cold air in the pipes to be discharged in time, avoiding mold and bacterial growth. For manual air conditioning systems, since the compressor switch and blower switch are both manual mechanical switches, the air conditioning will still operate when the vehicle is started next time. Moreover, when the key is turned to the ON position, powering the entire vehicle, the blower will also start running. The same applies to automatic air conditioning systems. Although automatic air conditioning does not have mechanical switches, it has a memory function. As long as the OFF button is not pressed when parking, the air conditioning will still operate when the vehicle is started next time, and the blower will also run when the key is turned to the ON position.
