What Causes Slow and Weak Power Window Operation?

Window operation becoming slow and weak can be attributed to the following reasons: Low Voltage: The raising and lowering of power windows are driven by window regulators. If the window operates slowly when the engine is off, it might be caused by low battery voltage. This is particularly common in vehicles that haven't been used for extended periods, as battery discharge becomes more likely. In such cases, simply running the engine for a while to recharge the battery and ensure sufficient voltage will resolve the issue. Door Deformation: Although car doors appear very sturdy, frequent forceful closing or instances where doors get squeezed or scraped against objects can cause slight deformations. This may consequently affect window movement, potentially leading to jerky operation. In this situation, carefully inspect the door's condition. If deformation is confirmed, proper repair measures should be taken.

Why Does an Automatic Transmission Car Make Noise When Shifting Gears?

Here are the reasons why an automatic transmission car makes noise when shifting gears: Shifting gears when the car is not completely stopped: If you shift to P gear before the car comes to a complete stop, the P gear lock hook inside the transmission will hit the gear, making a clicking sound. Incorrect operation sequence when parking on a slope: For automatic transmissions, the P gear relies on the lock hook to secure the gear and keep the car stationary. When parking on a slope, you should first engage the handbrake and then shift to P gear, allowing the handbrake to bear the downward force of the vehicle. Worn transmission gears: The transmission is a precision component, and the gears best reflect its precision. However, due to their tight meshing, wear is inevitable. Over time, larger gaps will form between the gear teeth, causing noise when shifting gears.
