Here are the detailed explanations of total mileage and fuel mileage: 1. Total Mileage: The cumulative total distance traveled by a vehicle, measured in kilometers (km); the vehicle odometer actually consists of two meters, one being the speedometer and the other the odometer; the vehicle odometer is generally located directly in front of the driver's position; the vehicle odometer also includes two LCD digital display windows connected to the same signal source, which respectively display the trip mileage and the total mileage. 2. Fuel Mileage: Refers to the total distance that a vehicle or ship can travel continuously with its maximum fuel reserve. The driving range of an electric vehicle refers to the distance traveled from a fully charged state of the power battery to the end of the test specified by the standard, which is an important economic indicator for electric vehicles.

What are the components of a vehicle's running system?

The components of a vehicle's running system include the body, axles, wheels, and suspension. The wheels are supported on their respective axles (front axle and rear axle). To reduce vibrations when driving on uneven roads, the axles are connected to the body through elastic suspension, ensuring smooth vehicle operation. The main functions of the vehicle's running system are to integrate the entire vehicle into a cohesive unit, support the vehicle's total weight, receive torque from the transmission system, generate traction between the driving wheels and the road surface, transmit and withstand various reaction forces and moments acting on the wheels, mitigate impacts from uneven road surfaces, and reduce body vibrations.

What are the reasons for the sudden locking of the steering wheel while driving?

Reasons for the sudden locking of the steering wheel while driving: 1. Steering gear failure: Mechanical hydraulic power steering systems or electro-hydraulic power steering systems are used in the steering system. When the steering gear fails, internal gears may get stuck, causing the steering wheel to suddenly lock. 2. Anti-theft system malfunction: If the car's anti-theft system malfunctions, it may automatically lock the vehicle doors and components such as the steering wheel and throttle. 3. Engine stalling: If the car stalls while driving, the power steering system will not function properly, leading to difficulty in steering or even locking of the steering wheel. In this case, simply restarting the car will resolve the issue.

How Many Kilometers Should You Drive Before Changing the Engine Oil?

Generally, the engine oil should be changed every 5,000 kilometers. However, the actual interval for changing the engine oil depends on various factors, including the quality of the oil used, the driving environment in the region, and the age of the vehicle model. Engine oil, also known as motor oil or engine lubricant, is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil, primarily containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade oil viscosity index improvers. In addition to determining the oil change interval based on mileage, engine oil also has a shelf life. Compared to being stored in an oil container, the shelf life of oil in the harsh high-temperature and high-pressure environment of an engine is significantly shortened, and its performance greatly deteriorates. Over time, it fails to protect the engine effectively. Therefore, even if the vehicle has driven fewer kilometers, it is necessary to change the engine oil regularly.

What are the reasons for a dash cam not recording?

The reasons for a dash cam not recording are: 1. The motion detection function is enabled, under which the dash cam will not record if the scene is static; 2. The memory card speed is insufficient or errors occur while storing video files, or there are other inherent issues; 3. The loop recording function is turned off, causing videos not to be automatically deleted and continuously stored in the dash cam until the storage space is full, resulting in the dash cam not recording; 4. The G-sensor function is enabled or the sensitivity is set too high, causing the dash cam to automatically detect a collision and lock the video segment during that time, making it undeletable and filling up the storage space, thus preventing the dash cam from recording.

How to Adjust the Pressure of a Relief Valve?

Within the range of spring working pressure indicated on the nameplate, the opening pressure can be adjusted by rotating the adjustment screw to change the spring compression. Before rotating the adjustment screw, the inlet pressure should be reduced to below 90% of the opening pressure to prevent the valve disc from being driven to rotate during the adjustment, which could damage the sealing surface. Below is relevant information about hydraulic valves: 1. The relief valve can be installed either horizontally or vertically. Regardless of the installation angle, it is important to pay attention to the direction of water flow into the valve body during installation to avoid mistakes. 2. If the relief pipe of the relief valve is too long and the drainage outlet is far away, the diameter of the relief pipe should be one size larger than normal during installation. This operation can effectively prevent damage and malfunction of the relief valve.
