What Does Clutch Overload Mean?

Clutch overload means the clutch plate is under excessive load, and the friction-generated heat is approaching the limit value. To prevent the clutch plate from overheating and burning out, the computer will issue a warning before reaching the limit. At this point, you should turn off the engine and park the car, resuming driving only after the warning disappears. Avoid parking the car on steep slopes for extended periods. Additional Information: Clutch Introduction: The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the transmission. Clutch Function: The clutch is a common component in mechanical transmission systems, allowing the transmission system to be separated or engaged at any time. Its basic requirements include smooth engagement, quick and thorough separation, ease of adjustment and repair, compact size, lightweight, good wear resistance, sufficient heat dissipation capacity, and easy and effortless operation. Clutches are categorized into jaw-type and friction-type.

What to Pay Attention to When Turning a Car

When turning a car, pay attention to the following: 1. Slow down the speed when turning, and avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply to prevent excessive centrifugal force causing the car to skid; 2. Try to avoid using the brakes when turning, especially emergency braking, to prevent skidding or accidents; 3. The steering wheel operation should match the curvature of the road and coordinate with the driving speed, ensuring appropriate turning angle, timely turning, and prompt steering wheel return. Before turning, based on road and traffic conditions, signal the turn 50m to 10m in advance, honk the horn to alert surrounding vehicles and pedestrians, appropriately reduce speed to maintain vehicle stability, turn slowly on the right side of the road, coordinate the steering wheel with the speed, turn timely, return early, and cancel the turn signal promptly after completing the turn.

What lights should be turned on when a car enters a tunnel?

When a car enters a tunnel, the headlights (low beams) should be turned on. At this time, the front low beams and width indicator lights will illuminate, and the rear brake lights will also light up. Since the lighting inside the tunnel is relatively dim, turning on the headlights can alert drivers of vehicles in front and behind to the position of your car, ensuring driving safety. When entering a tunnel, the car should slow down because the bright and glaring light outside the tunnel during the day contrasts sharply with the relatively weak light inside the tunnel. This transition can cause a brief period of eye adjustment for the driver, during which their judgment of road conditions may be impaired. Turning on the car lights not only helps in observing the road conditions but also serves to alert other vehicles.

Can a Car with a Rear Wing Pass the Annual Inspection?

No. Although the "Motor Vehicle Inspection Work Regulations" have relaxed certain modifications for vehicles, the policy does not support rear wing modifications. Installing a rear wing is considered an alteration to the vehicle's exterior appearance and is illegal. Therefore, it is not recommended to modify a car with a rear wing. Additional information: The relevant details about car rear wings are as follows: 1. Car rear wings are part of aerodynamic design and are commonly seen on various racing cars. Generally, the original rear wings on civilian cars are not overly exaggerated, and some may even use retractable rear wings. 2. When a car is driving at high speed, the air passing over the rear wing can increase the vehicle's downforce (typically adding several dozen kilograms of downforce, with some even exceeding 100 kilograms), improving the vehicle's driving stability. Additionally, a well-designed rear wing can reduce air resistance, achieving some degree of fuel efficiency.

How to Perform an Automotive Drip Cleaning?

Automotive drip cleaning involves the following steps: 1. Open the engine hood and remove the vehicle's fuel pump fuse; 2. Add a super-concentrated fuel injector cleaner to the no-disassembly fuel system cleaning device; 3. Hang the pressurized cleaning device on the front engine hood after adding the cleaning agent; 4. Place a cloth under the fuel line and slowly remove the fuel inlet pipe; 5. Connect it to the device's fuel line, then start the engine of the vehicle being cleaned after confirming everything is correct. The so-called drip cleaning is similar to an IV drip in hospitals, but for cars. This method is now a common maintenance practice, primarily used for cleaning the engine's intake tract and fuel system. Its advantages include convenience and speed, allowing for thorough engine cleaning without disassembly, achieving excellent results.

What is the fault when the SVS light flashes in a diesel vehicle?

Diesel vehicle SVS indicator light is an engine fault indicator, indicating that there is a fault in the engine. After starting the engine, when the engine ECU detects a fault in the engine, the SVS light will illuminate, indicating that there is a fault in the vehicle's engine. The following is a detailed introduction to the solutions for the flashing SVS light in diesel vehicles: 1. You can try to start the engine. If it cannot start, it may be due to an abnormal fuel pump, which needs to be replaced. 2. If it can still start, it may be due to other sensor faults. In this case, the vehicle can still be driven, but it cannot be ruled out that the fault may affect the normal use of the vehicle. It is recommended to go to a repair shop for inspection as soon as possible. 3. When the vehicle is in use and the parameter standard values differ from those at the factory, the fault light (SVS) will illuminate, thereby prompting the driver that the vehicle has a fault.
