Fault causes: Deformation of the steering knuckle arm; Lack of oil or damage to the steering knuckle thrust bearing; Excessive clearance or lack of oil between the steering knuckle kingpin and bushing; Deformation of the front axle or frame leading to misalignment of front wheel positioning; Insufficient tire pressure; Over-tight assembly of the steering gear bearings; Excessive meshing clearance of the transmission pair; Over-tight assembly or lack of oil in the tie rod ball joints; Bending of the steering shaft or column causing mutual friction or jamming; Improper lubrication of the steering system, incorrect toe-in adjustment. Fault diagnosis and troubleshooting: 1. If the fault lies in the front axle and wheels: Lift the front axle and turn the steering wheel. If the steering feels flexible, the fault is in the front axle and wheels. Because lifting the front axle eliminates the contact resistance between the wheels and the road surface. At this time, carefully check whether the front tire pressure is too low, whether the front leaf springs are in good condition, and whether the frame is deformed. 2. If the fault lies in the steering gear: Lift the front axle and turn the steering wheel. If the steering feels heavy, the fault is in the steering gear or steering linkage. At this time, remove the steering gear pitman arm and turn the steering wheel again. If it still feels heavy, the fault is inside the steering gear, and the damaged parts should be repaired or replaced as needed. 3. No fault: After removing the pitman arm, turn the steering wheel. If it feels light and flexible, the steering gear is functioning properly.

What do L, O, and R represent on a car?

These are the three markings L, O, and R, which are the adjustment switches for the rearview mirror, used to adjust the rearview mirror. Turning to L adjusts the left rearview mirror, O turns it off, and R adjusts the right rearview mirror. The car rearview mirror reflects the situation behind, beside, and below the car, allowing the driver to indirectly see these positions clearly and expanding the driver's field of vision. Here is additional information: 1. Installing rearview mirrors: Each vehicle should have a rearview mirror installed on the left and right sides inside the car, with their position and angle adapted to the vehicle model. 2. Before starting the car: The driver must observe through the rearview mirror whether there are any vehicles approaching from the side or rear and other traffic conditions behind, in order to make quick and accurate judgments and decisions. Starting blindly may lead to collisions. 3. Driving on multi-lane roads: When vehicles frequently change lanes, it is even more important to accurately observe the traffic conditions behind and to the side through the rearview mirror at all times. If there is a vehicle approaching from behind, do not change lanes. If a vehicle is overtaking from the side or rear, temporarily refrain from overtaking the vehicle ahead.

Can you turn right on a red light when driving in the right-turn lane?

Whether you can turn right on a red light when driving in the right-turn lane depends on the specific situation: If there is a red right-turn arrow on the traffic light or there is no right-turn lane marking at the intersection, you cannot turn right; If there is no right-turn green arrow on the traffic light and the intersection has a right-turn lane marking, turning right is allowed by default. Situations where turning right on a red light is permitted include: 1. If the intersection has an arrow signal light, right turns are only allowed when the right-turn arrow is green, otherwise turning right is prohibited; 2. If there is a sign prohibiting right turns on red at the intersection, right turns are only allowed when the light is green; 3. If there are no other signs at the intersection, vehicles can turn right on red as long as it does not interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians.

How to Clear the Wrench Light on Karry K50?

The method to clear the wrench light on Karry K50 is: Press and hold the black knob on the instrument panel, turn the ignition key three times, shift the car to the second gear without starting the engine to clear the light. Taking the 2019 Karry K50 as an example, it belongs to the MPV category with body dimensions of: length 4501mm, width 1760mm, height 1790mm, wheelbase of 2755mm, fuel tank capacity of 45 liters, and curb weight of 1230kg. The 2019 Karry K50 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine producing maximum power of 109 PS (80 kW) and maximum torque of 140 N·m, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.

What Causes Obvious Shaking During Car Acceleration?

Acceleration when the car shakes obviously are: 1. Loose connection between the transmission and chassis; 2. Uneven engagement of the clutch pressure plate and clutch friction disc; 3. Too little throttle or too quick clutch release; 4. Malfunctions in the intake system, ignition system, or fuel system; 5. Clogged fuel injector. The hazards of car acceleration shaking include: 1. Damage to the car's spark plugs, leading to poor ignition; 2. Increased carbon buildup in the fuel injector; 3. Blockage of the throttle valve and intake manifold; 4. Accelerated aging of engine components; 5. Damage to the clutch pressure plate; 6. Increased engine load.

What is the reason for shaking during acceleration but not when releasing the throttle?

The reason for shaking during acceleration but not when releasing the throttle is: During rapid acceleration, due to a certain angle between the half-shaft axial direction and the inner CV joint axial direction, the force point continuously changes along the axial direction during the rotation of the CV joint. The force generated by this change pushes the vehicle body alternately to the left and right, resulting in the shaking phenomenon. The hazards of car shaking during acceleration include: 1. Damaging the car's spark plugs, causing poor ignition; 2. Increasing carbon buildup on the fuel injectors; 3. Leading to clogging of the throttle and intake passages; 4. Accelerating the aging process of engine components; 5. Damaging the clutch pressure plate; 6. Increasing the load on the engine.

Can expired engine oil be used?

Expired engine oil cannot be used. The chemical composition of expired oil may have changed, which can affect the engine after being added. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To separate the surfaces of relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear; 2. To carry heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air, helping the radiator cool the engine; 3. To circulate carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, flushing away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of the lubricating oil. Signs that indicate the need for an oil change include: 1. Checking the oil viscosity—if there is no viscosity, the oil needs to be changed; 2. The oil color turns black; 3. Excessive black particles, metal shavings, or carbon deposits in the oil; 4. The oil has an unusual smell.
