Brake disc edge protrusion causes: Severe wear on the brake disc, which only requires replacement with a new one. The braking system is crucial for vehicles as it directly affects driving safety and stability. A car's braking system mainly consists of brake pads, brake discs, brake linings, vacuum booster pumps, master brake cylinders, and slave brake cylinders. Brake discs undergo wear during use, and uneven wear can lead to an uneven surface—some areas higher and others lower. This condition causes brake judder, affecting braking performance. If an uneven brake disc impacts braking effectiveness, it should be removed for resurfacing or replaced entirely.

What Causes a Car to Lose Power After Sitting for Ten Days?

If a car loses power after being parked for several days, it is generally due to the following reasons: 1. Check whether the car's electrical appliances were turned off after parking. If the vehicle's electrical equipment was not turned off in time, it can cause power drain; 2. Inspect all relays or whether the power plugs of the car's electrical appliances have short circuits or leakage. If a fault is found, contact a 4S shop or a repair technician for maintenance; 3. Check whether the outer skin of the battery's positive cable is damaged, as damage may lead to leakage; 4. Visit a 4S shop or ask a repair technician to check whether the car battery has any inherent faults. If necessary, replace it with a new battery.

Why can't the Audi car shift gears after starting?

It may be due to a malfunction inside the gear shift assembly that prevents gear shifting. Below is relevant information about vehicle gear shifting: 1. Precautions: When downshifting, use the method of double-clutching plus one blip of the throttle. The principle of downshifting with a blip is: the faster the speed, the larger the "blip"; the slower the speed, the smaller the "blip". When the engine is at low RPM, the "blip" should be larger; at high RPM, it should be smaller. On flat roads, the "blip" should be larger; when going uphill, it should be smaller. 2. Techniques: Gear shifting should be timely, accurate, smooth, and quick. When starting the car, generally use the low gear (first gear). After starting, as long as road conditions permit, quickly and progressively shift up to higher gears.

What is the ETC system on highways?

Highway ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) translates to electronic toll collection, which is a non-stop toll collection system. Highways are equipped with one or more ETC lanes. ETC toll collection method: Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the onboard RFID tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna on the ETC lane at the toll station, the system uses networked technology to conduct backend settlement processing with the bank. This allows vehicles to pass through bridge and road toll stations without stopping to pay toll fees. Banks that issue such ETC express cards typically charge after the service is used. ETC application requirements are as follows: Provide the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID and vehicle registration certificate. For the photocopy of the driver's license, the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp must be included. Submit a bank debit card application form, which will be used to bind the ETC card. After receiving the card, you can go to a designated bank branch to collect and install the ETC onboard device for free, with no additional charges. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old and own a vehicle registered under their name. Documents required for company vehicles: An introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original and photocopy of the agent's ID; original vehicle registration certificate; the vehicle for which ETC is to be applied. Precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the driver's view. It is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have steeply angled windshields, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If ETC installation does not account for this, it may increase blind spots. Install it on the right side behind the rearview mirror to avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the blackened areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it arbitrarily: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-tamper lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield will press the anti-tamper lever in. If the tag is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device.

Why is the Buick Excelle overheating?

The reasons for high water temperature in a Buick Excelle are as follows: 1. Insufficient coolant: If you are on the highway or in a remote area and there is no coolant in the car, you can temporarily use water as a substitute. Be careful not to open the radiator cap or water tank cap immediately after stopping the car, as the internal pressure is too high and opening it may cause instant spraying. Wait until the temperature cools down slightly before slowly opening the water tank cap. 2. Dirty radiator: The radiator has many pores formed by cooling fins, which can easily accumulate fluff, sludge, and other debris, reducing ventilation and cooling efficiency. In winter, poor cooling may not be a big issue because the ambient temperature is low. However, in summer, when the ambient temperature is already high, a blocked radiator with poor cooling can easily cause the water temperature to rise. This situation can be resolved by simply cleaning the radiator.

What Are the Common Faults and Causes of Car Central Door Locks?

Common faults in car central door locks generally include motor aging requiring replacement; blown fuses in the switch circuit needing replacement; malfunction of the central lock main unit requiring replacement; loosening of the main motor linkage rod needing tightening, among others. Below is additional information: 1. Central Lock: The full name is Central Control Door Lock, which is an automotive accessory. Using this lock allows for remote opening and locking of doors without inserting the key into the lock. It consists of a door lock switch, actuator, and controller. 2. Function: When the driver locks the door beside them, all other doors are simultaneously locked. The driver can open all doors simultaneously via the door lock switch or open a single door individually. When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, all doors automatically lock to prevent passengers from accidentally opening the door by operating the door handle.
