The reasons for steering wheel noise in Nissan Qashqai are as follows: 1. Sound from the turn signal reset: If the turn signal is activated while turning, the noise may come from the rebound clip of the automatic reset mechanism of the turn signal. 2. Noise from the steering column dust cover: If the noise comes from below the steering wheel, it may be due to the steering column dust cover. Lack of lubrication in the dust cover can cause friction noise. 3. Noise from inside the steering wheel: If the noise originates from inside the steering wheel, it is likely caused by the clock spring (airbag spiral cable) inside the steering wheel. Remove the steering wheel and apply some grease to the clock spring. 4. Noise from the shock absorber top bearing: If the noise comes from outside the vehicle, it may be due to insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber top bearing. Open the hood to check if the noise is coming from the shock absorber top mount. 5. Noise from the stabilizer bar: Check if the stabilizer bar bushings are loose or damaged. Loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushings can cause noise not only when turning but also when driving on uneven roads.

Is Original Factory Paint Really That Important?

Automotive original factory paint is very important, primarily used to protect the car body from corrosion. Original car paint refers to the paint applied to the vehicle when it leaves the factory. During the car body painting process, different stages use different coatings, forming distinct paint layers. On the car body steel plate, there are four paint layers: the electrophoretic layer, intermediate coat, color coat, and clear coat. A significant difference is that original factory paint is a high-temperature paint, baked at least at 130 degrees Celsius, resulting in stronger coating adhesion. In contrast, the repair paint used for later touch-ups is typically baked at around 80 degrees Celsius, with much weaker coating adhesion. This is because the original primer is applied in the factory's painting workshop by immersing the entire car body in a paint pool and attaching it through cathodic electrophoresis. Once the car leaves the factory, this process cannot be replicated. The primer used for touch-ups is usually a post-phosphating treatment coating, which is incomparable to the original factory primer, and the application process is vastly different.

What functions should be turned on when driving in heavy rain?

When encountering heavy rain, functions such as auto start-stop and auto hold should be turned off. Here are some tips for driving in heavy rain: 1. Proper use of lights: Whether it's day or night, always turn on the low beam and position lights when driving in rain or fog. If the rain is too heavy or visibility is poor due to thick fog, turn on the fog lights. Hazard lights should only be used when parking or during emergency braking to alert vehicles behind. They should not be turned on randomly during normal driving, as this can make it difficult for vehicles behind with poor visibility to discern the lane-changing intentions of the vehicle ahead or to spot vehicles stopped on the road due to various reasons in bad weather. 2. Low speed and high RPM when passing through waterlogged areas: If you need to pass through a waterlogged area, drive in a low gear at a slow speed, maintaining steady throttle. Avoid stopping, shifting gears, or making sharp turns midway. Even if you use neutral gear, keep revving the engine to ensure the exhaust pressure is higher than the water pressure, preventing water from flowing back into the exhaust pipe and damaging the exhaust system. If the water depth exceeds the center of the wheel or the exhaust pipe, it's best not to proceed to avoid engine stalling during passage.
