The reason for steering wheel vibration at 100 km/h is loose ball joints or detached rubber bushings at connection points. The steering wheel is the round control device used to direct vehicles like cars, ships, and aircraft. Typically connected to the steering shaft via splines, its function is to convert the driver's applied force at the wheel's edge into torque transmitted to the steering shaft. A larger diameter steering wheel requires less manual force from the driver during turns. The steering intermediate shaft serves as a connector between the steering gear and steering shaft, facilitating steering gear standardization while compensating for manufacturing and installation errors, thereby optimizing the installation of steering components in the vehicle.

Why is the Toyota C-HR's body so heavy?

Toyota C-HR is essentially a product of Toyota's effort to enhance body strength while controlling costs as much as possible. The reason for its weight is the extensive use of high-strength steel, which is why vehicles based on Toyota's TNGA platform perform well in crash tests. A heavier body provides better stability at high speeds. Factors affecting a car's stability at high speeds include: 1. Vehicle tires: Tires are the only components in contact with the ground. Generally, wider and flatter tires improve stability at high speeds; 2. Vehicle shape: The vehicle's shape also affects high-speed stability. The more aerodynamic the vehicle, the better its stability at high speeds; 3. Drive configuration: Most vehicle drive configurations include front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, and four-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive vehicles are more stable than front or rear-wheel drive vehicles; 4. Suspension system: Generally, vehicles with independent suspension systems are more stable than those with non-independent suspension systems. Independent suspensions include MacPherson strut and multi-link independent suspensions, among others.

What are the symptoms of a bad car charcoal canister?

When the charcoal canister fails, the car may exhibit symptoms such as weak acceleration, abnormal noises while driving, fuel line leaks, difficulty starting the engine, and increased fuel consumption. Details are as follows: 1. Weak car acceleration: When the car shows symptoms like unstable idling and weak acceleration, it is usually due to a clogged air filter screen of the charcoal canister. In this case, it should be cleaned, and the air filter screen should be replaced if necessary. 2. Abnormal noises while driving: If the vehicle makes a "clicking" noise while driving, it may be caused by an abnormal switch of the charcoal canister's solenoid valve. In this situation, it should be repaired or replaced. 3. Fuel line leaks: If there is a strong fuel smell while driving, it may be due to damage to the fuel system of the charcoal canister, causing fuel vapor to be directly released into the atmosphere. 4. Difficulty starting the engine: Damage to the solenoid valve of the charcoal canister can also cause abnormal concentration of the internal gas mixture, leading to difficulty starting the car engine. 5. Increased fuel consumption: Similarly, after the solenoid valve of the charcoal canister is damaged, the internal gas concentration becomes too high, causing the vehicle to flood and resulting in increased fuel consumption.

How to Spray Water with the Windshield Wiper?

Pull the wiper control lever (the lever on the right side of the steering wheel) toward the driver to spray water. If you use it frequently, make sure to check the windshield washer fluid level. If the level is too low, add more fluid promptly to avoid dry wiping. Below is the troubleshooting sequence for windshield wipers not spraying water: 1. Windshield Washer Fluid: Many washer fluid reservoirs can be checked by lifting the hood and looking down. If there is no fluid, simply add some. 2. Broken Pipe: Both front and rear wipers are connected via flexible pipes that bend and turn over time, making them prone to aging or breaking. In such cases, open the engine compartment cover and check for water stains around the washer fluid pipes. If you notice dripping, the pipe is likely broken. 3. Nozzle: If the nozzle is clogged, there are usually two nozzles with four spray holes, and it's rare for all to clog simultaneously. 4. Motor: Have one person operate the washer fluid spray switch while another listens near the motor for any sound of operation. If there is no sound, the motor may be faulty.
