What does an AWD system malfunction mean?
1 Answers
An AWD system malfunction indicates a failure in the four-wheel drive system. If the four-wheel drive system malfunctions, it is necessary to immediately visit a 4S store or a professional repair shop for inspection and repair. More information about the AWD system is as follows: 1. Overview: AWD has become similar to 4WD, with the only difference being that AWD lacks the low-ratio transmission found in 4WD. However, AWD still provides traction on slippery roads, in adverse weather conditions, and on mild off-road terrains. In reality, the decisive factor for a vehicle's off-road capability is its ground clearance rather than its AWD capability. 2. Others: AWD stands for All-Wheel Drive system. Part-time four-wheel drive is the most common four-wheel drive system. It is called part-time four-wheel drive because it cannot be used on roads with good traction. Due to the absence of a central differential, the speed difference between the front and rear drive shafts during turns can only be offset by the slipping of one tire. When the road surface has good traction, the tires are less likely to slip. Therefore, part-time four-wheel drive cannot be used on roads with good traction, which is why it is named as such.
