The occasional clicking sound when braking is caused by: 1. Excessive wear of brake discs and brake pads: Both components are high-wear items that experience friction during each brake application; 2. Improper installation of brake pads: The pads may be installed backwards or of incorrect model; 3. Normal ABS activation: The ABS system operates through a cyclic process of locking and releasing, keeping the vehicle in a near-lock rolling state. Solutions include: 1. Replacing brake pads with products featuring higher friction coefficients; 2. Adjusting pad installation position or using correct model brake pads; 3. Chamfering new pads or replacing brake discs during installation.

How to Adjust the Rearview Mirror of the Koleos?

Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts off the image of your right ear in the mirror. For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center, and adjust the left and right positions so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's surface. When adjusting the up and down positions of the right rearview mirror, leave a larger area for the ground, accounting for about 2/3 of the mirror's surface. To eliminate blind spots, try to adjust the left and right 70mai smart rearview mirrors outward or downward.

How often should an oxygen sensor be replaced?

Oxygen sensors do not have a fixed replacement interval, but it is recommended to replace them for vehicles with over 100,000 kilometers. There are usually two oxygen sensors: the one located in front of the three-way catalytic converter is called the front oxygen sensor, while the rear one is positioned behind it. The front oxygen sensor is used to adjust the mixture concentration, and the rear oxygen sensor monitors the working condition of the three-way catalytic converter. Sensor poisoning is a common and difficult-to-prevent malfunction, especially for vehicles that frequently use leaded gasoline. If the poisoning is mild, cleaning can restore normal operation. However, if lead penetrates the interior and obstructs the diffusion of oxygen ions, rendering the oxygen sensor ineffective, replacement becomes the only option.
