What is the appropriate tire pressure on highways?

On highways, a tire pressure of 2.3 to 2.5 bar is appropriate. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. The effects of excessively high tire pressure are: 1. It increases the friction between the tire and the ground, reducing tire adhesion; 2. It affects the braking performance and driving comfort of the vehicle, accelerating the wear of the central tread and reducing the tire's service life; 3. It increases body vibration, accelerates tire aging, reduces wear resistance, and increases the risk of tire blowouts. The effects of excessively low tire pressure are: 1. It increases the friction coefficient with the road surface; 2. It causes the steering wheel to feel heavy and prone to drifting; 3. It increases the movement of various parts of the tire, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal heat generation in the tire.

Does OBD Tire Pressure Monitoring Harm the Car?

OBD tire pressure monitoring does not harm the car. The OBD interface refers to the On-Board Diagnostics system, and its interface locations include: 1. Above the driver's left foot position; 2. Above the brake pedal; 3. Above the accelerator pedal; 4. Below the ashtray in front of the gear shift lever; 5. Below the glove compartment on the passenger side; 6. Near or inside the center armrest. The functions of OBD include: 1. Detecting faults in components and systems to ensure that the vehicle's emissions do not exceed OBD requirements during its service life; 2. When an emission-related fault is detected, the OBD system can alert the driver using the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) on the dashboard; 3. Ensuring timely repairs of faulty vehicles to reduce emissions; 4. The OBD system aids in diagnosis and targeted repairs.

What Causes Jerking When Accelerating in a Manual Transmission Car?

Manual transmission car acceleration jerking can be attributed to two main categories: objective factors and vehicle malfunctions. Objective factors: Primarily related to driver technique. If the throttle and clutch are not properly coordinated during gear shifts, the vehicle may exhibit noticeable sudden deceleration followed by abrupt acceleration, creating a distinct "jerking sensation," which is a normal phenomenon. Vehicle malfunctions: This involves more complex causes. If strong jerking occurs during acceleration while shifting gears, and the jerking intensifies with deeper throttle application, this typically indicates faulty ignition wires, which can be resolved by replacing them. Without inspecting the actual vehicle, an accurate diagnosis cannot be made. Issues in any part of the ignition system, intake system, or fuel system could potentially cause acceleration jerking. It is recommended to promptly visit a 4S shop or auto repair facility for professional inspection and targeted repairs after identifying the specific problem.

How to Handle a Flat Tire?

The correct methods to handle a flat tire are: 1. Hold the steering wheel firmly with both hands and try to control the vehicle; 2. Pay attention to the vehicles behind, brake slowly, and move away from the main road; 3. Avoid emergency braking to prevent the vehicle from spinning or overturning due to uneven braking force; 4. Place the triangular warning sign on the road behind the vehicle when parked; 5. Replace the spare tire as soon as possible. Methods to prevent flat tires include: 1. Regularly check the tire pressure of both the tires and the spare tire to ensure it is normal; 2. During long-distance driving or in hot weather, if the tire pressure is too high, choose a shady place to rest and wait for the tire pressure to return to normal before driving; 3. Rotate the tires to ensure even wear; 4. Promptly remove debris such as stones, glass, or nails embedded in the tire surface; 5. Replace tires that are beyond their service life or show signs of aging in a timely manner.

What is the reason why the hazard lights keep flashing and cannot be turned off?

Hazard lights keep flashing and cannot be turned off due to a problem with the control box. You need to check whether the hazard light relay is functioning properly. Use a multimeter to measure the output line of the hazard light relay to see if there is a 12v output. If there is intermittent output variation, it indicates normal operation. If there is no output or a constant 12v output, it means the hazard light relay is damaged and needs to be replaced with a new one. Usage of hazard lights: 1. When towing a faulty motor vehicle, both the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle should turn on the hazard warning flashers to indicate that the vehicle is in an abnormal state; 2. When temporarily parked on the road, turn on the hazard lights to alert other vehicles; 3. When forming a convoy permitted by traffic police, vehicles within the convoy should turn on their hazard lights.

Why does the steering wheel shake when the car reaches 120 km/h?

The reasons for the steering wheel shaking when the car reaches 120 km/h are: 1. Significant deviation in wheel alignment; 2. Shock absorber malfunction; 3. Frame deformation; 4. Excessive backlash in the driven gear; 5. Loss or damage of balance weights; 6. Large differences in tire pressure among the four wheels. The function of the steering wheel is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. The steering linkage, as a connecting component between the steering gear and the steering shaft, facilitates the standardization of the steering gear, compensates for errors during manufacturing and installation, and ensures proper installation of the steering gear and steering wheel in the vehicle. Solutions for the steering wheel shaking when the car reaches 120 km/h include: 1. Inspect and adjust tire pressure; 2. Check wheel balance and correct tire centripetal force; 3. Inspect wheel alignment; 4. Examine and repair the chassis, braking system, and engine suspension.
