An automotive tire pressure of 210kpa is equivalent to 2.1 bar of air pressure. Generally, the recommended cold tire pressure for most sedans and SUVs is around 2.3-2.5 bar. Details are as follows: Standard Tire Pressure: According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the recommended pressure for standard tires is 2.3-2.5 bar. Based on the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, in summer, the pressure can be adjusted 0.1-0.2 bar lower than the recommended value, while in winter, it can be adjusted 0.1-0.2 bar higher. Low tire pressure results in shorter braking distances and better grip during turns, but it also increases fuel consumption. Effects of Incorrect Tire Pressure: Both underinflation and overinflation negatively impact tire lifespan. Underinflated tires experience increased radial deformation, excessive sidewall flexing, and shoulder wear, leading to higher temperatures and significantly reduced tire life. Overinflated tires become overly rigid, reducing deformation and contact area, which increases pressure and wear on the tread center, causing central wear and compromising comfort while shortening tire lifespan.

What is the car air recirculation symbol?

Typically, it is a side view of a car with an arrow passing from the front windshield into the interior, indicating external air circulation. If there is a rotating arrow inside the car, it indicates internal air recirculation. Below is information about car air recirculation and external air circulation: 1. Car air recirculation and external air circulation refer to the direction of air intake for the air conditioning system, either from inside or outside the vehicle. 2. Internal air recirculation means the air inside the car is heated or cooled and then circulated back into the cabin, while external air circulation means outside air is heated or cooled before being sent into the cabin, allowing for gas exchange between the interior and exterior. 3. External air circulation mode uses a fan to draw outside air into the cabin, meaning the air ducts between the outside and inside are open. The air blown by the fan comes from outside, and even if the fan is off, airflow is still drawn into the cabin while driving, replenishing fresh air inside the car.

Reasons for the clicking sound when just turning the steering wheel in reverse?

Most hydraulic power steering pumps exhibit this phenomenon. When turning the steering wheel, the power steering fluid cannot circulate smoothly when obstructed, resulting in this squeaking sound. It could be the noise from friction between the combination switch housing and the steering wheel. Try loosening the housing mounting screws and adjusting it. Below is information about hydraulic power steering pumps: 1. The automotive power steering pump refers to a component that helps improve and stabilize vehicle performance. 2. Its main function is to assist drivers in adjusting the vehicle's direction. Currently, all vehicles are equipped with power steering pumps, mainly including steering power pumps and brake vacuum booster pumps. 3. The electro-hydraulic power steering system overcomes the shortcomings of traditional hydraulic power steering systems. During low-speed, large-angle turns, the electronic control unit drives the electro-hydraulic pump to operate at high speed and output greater power, making it easier for drivers to turn the steering wheel.

What does the car button mean?

Automotive car button refers to the vehicle itself, and its function is to quickly open the car system settings interface. Pressing this button allows the multimedia central control screen to directly switch to display the car system interface, where various vehicle settings can be adjusted, such as driving mode selection, seat and air conditioning adjustments, parking assistance systems, settings and services. The following are the functions represented by various buttons in the car: 1. The sel key is the menu selection confirmation button, usually located on the multifunction steering wheel. 2. The ok key has exactly the same function as the sel key, but some cars use sel while others use ok. 3. The ac button is the compressor switch, the full name is aircondition, which is the air conditioning cooling switch.

What kind of engine oil is suitable for Toyota RAV4?

Toyota RAV4 is suitable for the original PurePlus 5W-40 engine oil, which should be changed every 5,000 kilometers. If you want better quality, you can use Mobil 1 full synthetic engine oil, which can also be mixed with any other engine oil. Alternatively, German Magic Red engine oil can also be used. Below is information about Mobil 1 5W-50: 1. Mobil 1 5W-50 is a 100% full synthetic engine oil formulated with patented anti-wear technology. Even under severe and harsh driving conditions, it provides excellent protection. Mobil 1 is also highly compatible with other conventional and synthetic engine oils. 2. 5W-40 engine oil means that it meets the viscosity requirements for both low and high temperatures. Due to its wide applicability, it has become a mainstream type of engine oil. 3. The "W" stands for "winter," indicating its use in winter. The number before the "W" represents the viscosity at low temperatures. The smaller the number, the better the fluidity at low temperatures and the stronger the cold resistance. The number after the "W" indicates the viscosity at 100°C. The larger the number, the higher the viscosity and the stronger the high-temperature resistance.

What Happens If a Car Runs Out of Coolant?

A car without coolant lacks protection for the engine and radiator. Running low on coolant affects the radiator's heat dissipation, preventing proper cooling and disrupting the coolant circulation cycle. This can lead to overheating and, in severe cases, cause engine damage. In cold climates, it may also result in the engine or radiator freezing, leading to engine failure and rendering the vehicle inoperable. Precautions for adding coolant: 1. Do not use plain water as a substitute for coolant. 2. Avoid mixing coolants of different colors and specifications. 3. When switching coolant brands, try to drain the original coolant from the cooling system completely. 4. Regardless of the temperature, for the sake of cooling system efficiency and longevity, coolant should always be used. The theory that southern winters are mild and do not require coolant is incorrect.

What are the categories of automotive air conditioning systems?

Categories of automotive air conditioning systems: 1. By driving method: independent and non-independent types. 2. By performance: single-function type and integrated heating/cooling type. 3. By control method: manual type and electrically controlled pneumatic regulation. 4. By control mode: fully automatic regulation and microcomputer-controlled fully automatic regulation. Below is information about modern automotive air conditioning systems: 1. The air conditioner can control the cabin temperature, capable of both heating and cooling air to maintain a comfortable cabin environment. 2. The air conditioner can remove humidity from the air. Dry air absorbs human sweat to create a more comfortable environment. 3. The air conditioner can intake fresh air, providing ventilation functionality. 4. The air conditioner can filter the air, removing dust and pollen from the air.
