Reasons for the steering wheel of Wuling Rongguang being particularly heavy: First, check for any oil leakage. If there is leakage, it needs to be replenished to the normal range. If there is no oil shortage, check whether the power steering pump is too loose. If it is too loose, it needs to be adjusted. Then check the tire pressure. If the tire pressure is too low, it will make the steering wheel heavy. Also, check the steering system and the rubber sleeve of the steering rod for wear. You can add some grease inside to improve lubrication. If the steering wheel of Wuling Rongguang becomes heavy, it is necessary to go to a 4S shop or a car repair shop for inspection and repair to avoid traffic accidents. The body dimensions of the Wuling Rongguang electric vehicle are 4490mm in length, 1615mm in width, and 1915mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3050mm. The carrying space can reach 5100L, and the effective loading space reaches 5100L.

Having driven for decades, I've noticed that heavy steering is quite common in Wuling Rongguang models, most often due to issues with the power steering system. For instance, the hydraulic power steering pump might be faulty or have insufficient oil pressure – that component is responsible for reducing steering effort, and when it fails, the wheel becomes stiff as a rock. Sometimes, if you're not careful while driving and the hydraulic fluid runs out or leaks, the same problem occurs. Additionally, worn steering gear bearings or tie rods, or poor lubrication can make steering laborious. My advice is to first check the power steering fluid level – if it's low, try topping it up. If that doesn't help, you should visit a professional repair shop without delay; don't wait until it becomes a major issue since heavy steering is not only exhausting but also increases accident risks. Remember to maintain the steering system regularly – cars are like old friends that need constant care.

How often should a car undergo minor maintenance?

Minor maintenance is typically performed every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months. Minor maintenance generally refers to routine maintenance items carried out when a vehicle hasn't traveled long distances, aimed at ensuring vehicle performance. It mainly includes oil changes, oil filter replacement, and routine inspections. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of a vehicle, also known as vehicle servicing. The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean and tidy, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life. The items that need to be replaced and inspected during car maintenance are as follows: Engine oil, oil filter, air filter, built-in cabin air filter, external cabin air filter, fuel filter (integrated with fuel pump), brake fluid, automatic transmission fluid, spark plugs, etc.; Inspection of poly-V belt, battery, brake pedal and parking brake, air conditioning system, engine coolant, exhaust pipe and assembly, brake friction linings and brake discs; Inspection of brake fluid, brake lines and hoses, tires and inflation pressure, drive shaft boots, automatic transmission fluid, steering wheel and steering column, ball joints and dust covers, front and rear suspension devices, vehicle electrical equipment, and radiator. The cost of car maintenance depends on the vehicle model and equipment, as well as whether additional maintenance and statutory inspections are required. Usually, dealers will inform the owner of the required maintenance hours and material costs. Regular maintenance of the vehicle is more recommended to be carried out at brand-authorized dealers. Dealers have modern specialized tools and equipment, well-trained professional technicians, and a comprehensive range of spare parts available for dispatch.

What Causes Vehicle Shaking While Driving?

If you notice slight shaking or deviation of the vehicle body during driving, it may be caused by tire-related issues. 1. Poor tire balance condition - the owner should promptly perform four-wheel alignment and dynamic balancing. If the vehicle doesn't pull to one side, just perform tire dynamic balancing. 2. Deformation of steel rims - this requires inspection at a professional repair shop. This condition typically occurs in older vehicles. Generally, when replacing new tires or steel rims, tire balancing should be performed; otherwise, uneven weight distribution can easily cause steering wheel vibration. Body shaking affects both driving comfort and handling judgment. 3. Drive shaft deformation and imbalance - this situation more commonly occurs in vehicles that have experienced chassis collisions.

What does the snow mode in cars mean?

The snow mode in cars is a control mode of the automatic transmission. The differences between snow mode and normal mode are as follows: 1. Torque output: After activating snow mode, the output torque of the car engine is limited, and the transmission is set to start in second gear. At this time, the car's output torque becomes smoother and gentler, reducing the chance of the car slipping on snow; normal mode does not have any special functions. 2. ABS range expansion: Snow mode increases the working range of ABS, activating the ABS function even in non-emergency situations; normal mode only triggers ABS when the brake is pressed hard. 3. Enhanced ESP function: The ESP function is generally in a dormant state in normal mode and only triggers when the car is in an extreme out-of-control state; snow mode allows more power to be distributed to wheels with traction, helping the car escape difficult situations as quickly as possible.
