According to the regulations and requirements of the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the standard tire pressure for a spare tire is 2.4-2.5 bar. In winter, the tire pressure should be based on the standard tire pressure of the car tire, with an appropriate increase of about 0.2 bar. In summer, the tire pressure can generally be about 0.1 bar lower than the standard to avoid tire blowouts due to high temperatures. Tire pressure reset method: First, turn on the ignition switch, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "beep" sound, then release it. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the fault light on the dashboard will go out, completing the tire pressure reset. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure: Generally, an alarm will sound if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. At this time, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator light to turn on. In this case, simply perform a tire pressure reset. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor is used to monitor tire pressure and is directly installed inside the tire, connected to the tire inflation port. If the tire pressure sensor is damaged during driving, it will also cause the tire pressure fault light to turn on. For sensor damage issues, only a new replacement part can be used.

How to Clean Cement Splashes on a Car?

Here are the methods to clean cement splashes on a car: 1. If the cement has not hardened, you can directly rinse it off with clean water, then use a towel with cleaning solution to wipe it. 2. If the cement has already hardened, you can spray white vinegar or a specialized cement cleaner on the cement. Wait for the cement to soften, then rinse it off with plenty of water. White vinegar is an acidic liquid that can effectively dissolve cement. Pour white vinegar onto the cement attached to the car, wait a few minutes for the cement to soften, and then it will be easier to clean. 3. If the cement cannot be completely rinsed off or the car paint already has scratches, it is recommended to hand it over to a car detailing shop for treatment.

Can Zero-Degree and Minus Twenty-Degree Windshield Washer Fluid Be Mixed?

Zero-degree and minus twenty-degree windshield washer fluid can be mixed. Definition of Windshield Washer Fluid: Commonly known as automobile windshield cleaning fluid. It is a consumable in automotive use. High-quality automobile windshield washer fluid is mainly composed of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants. Automobile windshield washer fluid is commonly referred to as glass water. Purpose of Windshield Washer Fluid: When the transparency of the front windshield decreases, spraying some windshield washer fluid can provide a clear and bright view. Especially during night driving, dust on the glass can scatter light, making it necessary to spray windshield washer fluid to maintain the front windshield in optimal transparency.

What are the signs of a failing motorcycle ignition coil?

Motorcycle ignition coil failure signs include: 1. No spark from the ignition coil, preventing vehicle startup; 2. Electrical leakage from the ignition coil, causing jerky movement with inconsistent speed during riding; 3. Reduced power and increased fuel consumption. A motorcycle consists of an engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical instrumentation. The transmission system comprises primary reduction, clutch, gearbox, and secondary reduction. The ignition coil, formally known as the line output transformer (also called line package or line transformer), operates similarly to TV/monitor flyback transformers - its primary function is generating anode high voltage while also providing focus, acceleration, and grid voltages.

What are the causes of abnormal noise from the right front wheel of a car?

The causes of abnormal noise from the right front wheel of a car are: 1. Deformation of the shock absorber spring, which should be replaced immediately; 2. Aging or abnormal wear of the shock absorber plane bearing, which should be replaced or lubricated immediately; 3. Oil leakage or bending of the shock absorber itself, which should be replaced immediately; 4. Abnormal noise from the wheel bearing, which should be replaced immediately. Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground, usually mounted on metal rims. They support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, ensure contact with the road surface, and maintain the vehicle's driving performance. Tires have high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance and flex resistance, along with low rolling resistance and heat generation.
