Brake arm corrosion is the cause. Because the spring's elastic force cannot overcome the resistance caused by corrosion, using a cleaning agent to clean it can restore functionality. Below is related information: Disc brakes: Composed of a brake disc connected to the wheel and a brake caliper at the edge of the disc. When braking, high-pressure brake fluid pushes the brake pads to clamp the disc, thereby generating the braking effect. Motorcycle introduction: A motorcycle consists of five parts: the engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical instrumentation equipment. It is categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, touring bikes, etc. Road motorcycles can be divided into three major categories: supersport motorcycles, touring motorcycles, and American motorcycles.

What are the symptoms of a clogged car air conditioning dryer?

In the case of a clogged car air conditioning expansion valve, the gauge shows high pressure on the high side and low pressure on the low side; if the dryer is clogged, the gauge shows low pressure on both the high and low sides, with high temperature before the clog. A mnemonic for diagnosis: Low pressure high and high pressure low, replace the compressor; both pressures high, need to vent or there's a cooling issue; gauge fluctuating indicates moisture in the system, evacuation must be more thorough; both pressures low indicate a lack of refrigerant, otherwise there's a blockage in the system. The functions of the car dryer are as follows: 1. Storage function: It stores and supplies liquid refrigerant in the refrigeration system to compensate and regulate the surplus or shortage of liquid refrigerant when operating conditions change. Generally, when the air conditioning system starts, the load is large, requiring a high circulation of refrigerant. After operating for a while, the load decreases, and the required refrigerant quantity reduces accordingly. 2. Filtration function: Although all components in the refrigeration system should be strictly cleaned and dried before leaving the factory, dirt may be inadvertently introduced during installation, or contaminants like oxide scales may form in the pipes. The refrigerant itself may not be perfectly clean, and powder and wear debris from the compressor operation can also be present. The filter removes these mechanical impurities and dirt to ensure smooth refrigerant flow and prevent blockages that could affect normal operation. 3. Drying function: It absorbs moisture in the refrigerant. Moisture can come from inadequate drying of the refrigeration system, air ingress, or dissolved water in the refrigerant. The presence of moisture can cause "water blockage." In the air conditioning refrigeration system, the dryer filter's role is to absorb moisture in the system, block impurities to prevent them from passing through, and avoid ice and dirt blockages in the refrigeration system pipes.

How many kilometers can the EC3 run?

EC3 is a small electric vehicle, absolutely sufficient for daily commuting, with a cruising range of approximately 245 kilometers. If it's not for ultra-long-distance commuting, maintaining this range for a week should not be a problem. After all, it's a small car, and the EC3's power recovery system can effectively recover 99.99% of braking energy. This will also enhance the range. Relevant information about the vehicle's range is as follows: 1. Introduction: The vehicle's range refers to the farthest distance that can be traveled with the remaining gasoline in the tank at a fuel-saving speed, mainly calculated by the vehicle's computer based on the current fuel consumption. 2. Influencing factors: The vehicle's range capability is affected by four factors: charging equipment, tire pressure, whether the vehicle overtakes, and whether it frequently stops and starts abruptly.

Is a B-segment car too long to drive comfortably?

B-segment cars being too long can indeed make them harder to drive. Here are the specific details: 1. Advantages of a longer car: A longer wheelbase provides more direct handling. Generally, when foreign car models are localized for domestic production, the wheelbase is often extended to cater to local preferences, which helps boost sales. A longer wheelbase means the four wheels are positioned closer to the corners of the vehicle, and the distance between them increases. This not only enhances steering responsiveness but also improves the stability of the vehicle's center of gravity. Additionally, it reduces the extent of nose-diving during braking and lifting during acceleration. 2. Vehicle weight distribution: The weight distribution of the car body is related to its weight and proportions, with the optimal distribution being 50:50 front to rear. If a car is front-heavy and rear-light, the center of gravity shifts forward, making it prone to oversteer during cornering. With an extended wheelbase, the front-mounted engine can shift the center of gravity further back, while rear components can be positioned more evenly between the front and rear axles. This helps achieve a weight distribution closer to the ideal 50:50 ratio.

What kind of oil should be used for door squeaking?

For door squeaking, use WD40 lubricating oil. Below is an introduction to the relevant content: 1. Lubricating oil: Lubricating oil is a liquid or semi-solid lubricant used in various types of automobiles and mechanical equipment to reduce friction and protect machinery and processed parts. It generally consists of two parts: base oil and additives. 2. Function: Lubricating oil is a technology-intensive product and a complex mixture of hydrocarbons. It mainly plays the roles of lubrication, cooling, rust prevention, cleaning, sealing, and buffering. When the lubricating oil flows to the friction area, it adheres to the friction surface to form an oil film, reducing the resistance between friction components. The strength and toughness of the oil film are the keys to its lubricating effect.

Where is the blind spot of the right rearview mirror?

The blind spot of the right rearview mirror is located approximately 20° behind the left and right sides of the vehicle body. Below is a partial introduction about car blind spots: 1. Front blind spot: The area in front of the hood that cannot be seen, commonly known as the front blind spot. Several factors contribute to the front blind spot, including the height of the vehicle body and seats, the length of the front end, and the driver's physique. 2. Rear blind spot: The blind spot behind the vehicle, commonly known as the rear blind spot, refers to an area of about 30 degrees extending outward from the rear door that is outside the view of the rearview mirror. When the front of a following car is near the rear door of the leading car, the following car cannot be seen in the leading car's rearview mirror, making it highly prone to scratches and rear-end collisions.
