What does FAW-Volkswagen SPIN mean?
1 Answers
Volkswagen SPIN refers to an uncontrolled skid that occurs when the exit speed is too high or the tire grip is insufficient. Causes of vehicle skidding: Low road adhesion coefficient: Slippery roads, oil stains, or ice reduce the adhesion coefficient, and asymmetry between left and right sides, along with reduced wheel load and road adhesion, can cause wheel skidding with slight lateral force. Resistance imbalance: Uneven resistance on all four wheels during braking, such as unequal braking force on left and right wheels, varying adhesion coefficients, or a load center of gravity biased to one side, can lead to deviation and easily cause wheel skidding. Improper braking: Actions like sudden or excessive braking can cause wheel lock-up and skidding, with the rear wheels usually locking up before the front wheels, also easily leading to skidding. Prevention and response methods for vehicle skidding: Pre-drive inspection: Check the vehicle's condition before driving to prevent potential issues, especially focusing on the braking system, tires, and other critical factors to avoid malfunctions. Maintain driving distance: Most drivers understand the importance of this, mainly to provide enough space to react in case of emergencies, such as deceleration or braking. Control speed: Maintain a controlled speed while driving, avoiding excessive speed, especially on special road sections like rain, snow, or muddy conditions. Drive at a steady speed to ensure the vehicle remains stable, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration, which can easily cause skidding on roads with relatively low adhesion.
