Causes of steering wheel vibration: 1. Vibration at idle: Loose steering wheel bolts or rubber bushings; 2. Vibration during driving: Wheel imbalance; 3. Vibration when turning: Power steering belt too loose or too tight; 4. Vibration when braking at high speed: Excessive or frequent braking causing brake pads/discs to overheat and deform when cooled; 5. Vibration on rough roads: Worn ball joints or detached rubber bushings at connections. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control direction in vehicles, ships, and aircraft, converting driver-applied force at the rim into torque transmitted to the steering shaft.

Where can I get a remote key duplicated?

Remote keys can be duplicated at 4S dealerships or at specialized key duplication shops. When duplicating a remote key, the focus is on replicating the chip inside the key, as this chip is essential for remotely locking or unlocking the car. The chip in the remote key also controls the engine start function. Even for vehicles without push-button start (those requiring key turning to start), the chip in the remote key is still necessary. Without this chip, the engine won't start even if the mechanical key is present. The outer casing of the remote key is not waterproof, so it's advisable to avoid exposing the remote key to water during daily use, as this could damage the chip.

What does 'trip' on the car dashboard mean?

The 'trip' on the car dashboard refers to the short-distance mileage, also known as the partial mileage, which allows users to calculate the kilometers traveled for each trip. It can be reset to zero by long-pressing the clear button. In contrast, 'odo' stands for the total mileage, with its full forms being 'odograph' or 'odometer'. The total mileage cannot be reset. The smallest unit for the trip mileage is 0.1 kilometers, and the basic calculation method is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers, which is also the parameter provided by the manufacturer. This is calculated by dividing the actual fuel consumption by the actual distance traveled, i.e., fuel consumption per 100 kilometers equals fuel consumption (liters) divided by distance traveled (kilometers) multiplied by 100.

What does the front tire specification 205/55R16 mean?

The front tire specification 205/55R16 represents the following: the tire parameter 205 refers to the tire's section width of 205 millimeters; 55 represents the tire's aspect ratio, which is the percentage of the tire's section height divided by its width; R stands for radial tire; and 16 indicates the rim diameter of 16 inches. Car tires are one of the essential components of a vehicle, as they directly contact the road surface and work together with the car's suspension to absorb shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving performance. They also ensure excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the car's traction, braking, and off-road capability, while bearing the weight of the vehicle.

What does EV mean for sedans?

EV in sedans refers to the pure electric driving mode on hybrid vehicles, a mode driven by electric motors, which is not available in conventional power vehicles (conventional power refers to gasoline or diesel vehicles). The EV mode is typically equipped in pure electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles, and it also represents electric vehicles. When using hybrid models, the EV button can serve as an auxiliary mode rather than the primary driving mode. For short-distance commuting (within 20 kilometers), using the EV mode is not a problem. When the EV mode is engaged, the fuel engine in hybrid vehicles does not start, thus unable to charge the battery, resulting in lower range under the EV mode.
