The difference between having ABS functionality and not having ABS functionality lies in the braking state: With ABS functionality, the wheels do not lock up during emergency braking; without ABS functionality, the wheels can lock up during emergency braking. What is ABS? ABS, short for Antilock Brake System, automatically controls the braking force during vehicle braking to prevent wheel lock-up, maintaining a state of rolling and sliding (with a slip ratio of around 20%) to ensure maximum traction between the wheels and the road. Functions of ABS: Maximize the effectiveness of the brakes, reducing braking time and distance; effectively prevent vehicle skidding and fishtailing during emergency braking, ensuring good driving stability; allow steering during emergency braking, providing good steering control; avoid severe friction between the tires and the road, reducing tire wear.

What Causes the Squeaking Sound When Starting the Vehicle?

The reasons for the squeaking sound when starting the vehicle are: 1. Insufficient body rigidity, causing deformation during driving, leading to friction or shaking between the door and the frame; 2. Belt slippage damaging the bearings of the generator, water pump, or power steering pump; 3. Worn transmission bearings or gears; 4. Deformed, bulging, severely worn tire treads, or insufficient tire pressure. The steps for starting a car are: 1. Check around the vehicle before getting in to ensure there are no obstacles affecting safety; 2. Fasten the seat belt after entering the car; 3. Press the brake with the left foot and the accelerator with the right foot; 4. Insert the key and turn it clockwise to power on, waiting for the vehicle's self-check; 5. Check the dashboard for any abnormal warning lights; 6. Ensure the gear is in P or N, press the brake, turn the key clockwise to start the vehicle, release the handbrake, and shift to D; 7.

Is Transmission Fluid Universal?

Transmission fluid is not universal and must match the specific requirements of the transmission. Transmission fluid is a lubricant that keeps the gear system clean and serves the following purposes: 1. Ensuring the normal operation of the transmission and extending the lifespan of the transmission components; 2. Providing effective lubrication even at low temperatures; 3. Reducing fluid loss under harsh operating conditions. Transmission fluids can be categorized into two types based on their structure: manual transmission fluid and automatic transmission fluid. Situations that require transmission fluid replacement include: 1. Reduced engine power; 2. Difficulty starting in low gears; 3. Gear shifting feels jerky or unresponsive, accompanied by unusual noises from the transmission; 4. Overheating of the transmission.
