What Causes the Noise When Braking Just After Starting the Car?

When you slowly release the brake pedal, the engine already has enough power to drive the car forward, but your brakes haven't fully disengaged yet. As a result, the moving wheels are being held back by the braking system, which naturally produces unusual noises—this is a normal phenomenon. Here's some relevant information: In manual transmission cars, when you lift the brake, the transmission doesn't output power, and the vehicle starts only after the brake is fully released. However, in automatic transmission cars, as soon as you engage the gear, the transmission already provides the force for the tires to rotate forward; it's just that the brakes are being pressed, preventing the vehicle from moving. When starting an automatic transmission car, the brake is usually released slowly. If you release the brake quickly, you won't hear this noise.

What to Prepare for Long-Distance Travel?

Things to bring for a long-distance trip include: 1. Documents: When driving long distances, it's essential to carry necessary documents such as the vehicle registration certificate, driver's license, and ID card. These three documents are indispensable while driving. Additionally, having insurance certificates and the vehicle's certificate of conformity can help avoid troubles during the journey. 2. Electric air pump: During long-distance driving, you might encounter situations with insufficient tire pressure. If you can't find a place to inflate your tires, an electric air pump can be used to inflate them. 3. Jumper cables: It's advisable to carry jumper cables for long trips. If you accidentally leave the car headlights on and drain the battery, making the car unable to start, you can use jumper cables to borrow power from passing vehicles. 4. Warm clothing: In winter, temperatures can be quite low, and without using the car's heater, it can get cold inside the vehicle, so warm clothing is necessary. 5. Spare tire: A spare tire is usually kept in the car. Before a long trip, check the spare tire's condition. In case of a tire blowout on the highway, the spare tire can be used as an emergency replacement. 6. Snow chains: Winter long-distance travel might involve snowy conditions, making snow chains an important tool. When installing snow chains, ensure they are not too loose to prevent unnecessary wear on the tires.

Where is the tire pressure reset button on the Peugeot 408?

The tire pressure reset button for the Peugeot 408 is located on the navigation screen, where it can be reset in the vehicle information section. Below is a detailed introduction about the Peugeot 408 tire pressure reset button: 1. The tire pressure reset button allows for quick adjustments to the tire pressure of the car's tires. Additionally, vehicles are generally equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system to continuously monitor changes in tire pressure. This system helps prevent tire blowouts and can extend the lifespan of the car's tires to a certain extent. 2. The tire pressure monitoring system cannot completely prevent unexpected tire blowouts. Its function is to monitor the pressure status inside the tires in real time. When temperatures are high, rolling resistance increases, or friction with the ground intensifies, the pressure inside the tires can be greater than usual.
