The reason why a car clutch with low air pressure is hard to press may be due to the clutch cable being too low. Below is a detailed introduction about car clutches: 1. Overview: The car clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission, with the output shaft of the clutch being the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power input from the engine to the transmission. 2. Principle: The driving part and the driven part of the clutch rely on the friction between contact surfaces, or use liquid as a transmission medium, or employ magnetic transmission (electromagnetic clutch) to transmit torque, allowing temporary separation and gradual engagement between the two parts while permitting mutual rotation during the transmission process.

How much is the overload when a 7-seater carries 9 people?

A 7-seater carrying 9 people constitutes a 28.6% overload. Calculation: (9-7)÷7x100%=28.6%. Below is relevant information about vehicle overloading: 1. According to the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses', driving an operational passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the approved number by more than 20% will result in a one-time deduction of 12 points. 2. Driving an operational passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the approved number by less than 20%, or driving other passenger vehicles with passengers exceeding the approved number by more than 20%, will result in a deduction of 6 points.

Which one is on, 'on' or 'off'?

Between 'on' and 'off', 'on' means to turn on, while 'off' means to turn off. These two terms are commonly found on car start buttons or on the car air conditioning panel. Adjusting to the 'on' position indicates that a certain function is activated, and adjusting to the 'off' position means that the function is deactivated. A switching power supply is a type of power supply that uses modern power electronics technology to control the ratio of the switch tube's on and off times to maintain a stable output voltage. Switching power supplies are generally composed of a pulse width modulation control IC and MOSFET. Compared to linear power supplies, the costs of both increase with the increase in output power, but their growth rates differ.

What happens if too much antifreeze is added?

If too much antifreeze is added, causing the overflow tank to become full, it may spill out from the overflow port or the one-way valve on the screw cap. Adding antifreeze slightly above the upper limit is not a problem, but if the overflow tank is completely filled, the liquid may be expelled when the cooling system heats up and expands. Below is some related information about antifreeze: 1. Antifreeze concentrate is added to the radiator water to turn it into a mixed solution, lowering the freezing point and making it less prone to freezing. 2. The boiling point is also relatively increased, which reduces water evaporation in summer and enhances the engine cooling effect. 3. Antifreeze concentrate has anti-corrosion properties, preventing radiator corrosion and also lubricating the water pump bearings.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the KAMIQ?

The KAMIQ is equipped with three powertrain options: 1.5L+5MT, 1.5L+6AT, and 1.2T+7DCT. Although its power performance is only sufficient for daily family commuting, its fuel economy is excellent. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has given its combined fuel consumption per 100 kilometers as 5.8-6L. So, what is the actual fuel consumption of the KAMIQ? The measured average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 6.80-7.52L. The KAMIQ is a low-end compact SUV under the SAIC Volkswagen Skoda brand. Despite its relatively low price, it performs well in various aspects, offering adequate power performance for family use.

What Causes Severe Shaking When Starting a Car?

The reason for severe shaking when starting a car is the wear and slippage of the clutch pressure plate and disc, which can be caused by aging or quality issues. Both the pressure plate and disc need to be replaced simultaneously. Here are some related explanations for starting shake: 1. When the car shakes during startup, let the engine idle. 2. Engage a low gear, slowly release the clutch pedal, and increase the throttle to start. If the body shakes noticeably, it indicates clutch shudder. 3. Clutch shudder can also be caused by broken or loose rivets on the driven plate, fractures in the driven plate steel sheet, or unbalanced rotating components. 4. Loose engine mounts or misalignment between the transmission's first shaft and the engine crankshaft centerline can also lead to car shaking during startup.

What are the symptoms of ignition system failure?

Ignition system failure manifests in the following ways: 1. Difficulty starting: Mainly characterized by trouble during initial startup, normal idling, and the vehicle stalling easily when starting on an incline. 2. Engine misfire: Mainly characterized by the vehicle operating without issues at idle and low speeds, but beginning to shake after continuous high-speed driving for a period. 3. Engine shaking when the vehicle is stopped: Mainly characterized by the engine shaking when the vehicle is stopped at traffic lights. 4. Weak engine acceleration: Mainly characterized by difficulty starting when the engine is cold, followed by idling shaking, weak acceleration, and a noticeable increase in fuel consumption after startup. 5. Engine failure to start: Mainly characterized by the starter motor turning but the engine failing to start during ignition. 6. Intermittent weak acceleration and automatic stalling: Mainly characterized by the engine sometimes experiencing weak acceleration or automatically stalling while driving at low speeds (40~60 km/h).
