Axle weight refers to the weight borne by a single axle, while vehicle weight refers to the total weight of the entire vehicle. The following is a related introduction about axle weight: 1. Introduction to axle weight: Axle weight, also known as axle load, refers to the maximum allowable share of the total vehicle weight that each axle can bear. Axle weight reflects the static load intensity that the track can withstand and determines the average stress level of alternating stresses in various components. 2. The impact of axle weight on wheel dynamic load: The wheel dynamic load increases with the increase of axle weight and tire pressure; the dynamic load coefficient increases with the increase of tire pressure but decreases with the increase of axle weight; the higher the tire pressure, the faster the wheel dynamic load increases with axle weight; using only axle weight is insufficient to evaluate the damage effect of heavy-duty, high-pressure vehicles on the road surface.

How to Deal with the Yellow Engine Light on the Dashboard?

Generally, it is necessary to promptly inspect the engine and find a nearby vehicle repair shop for maintenance because the engine is the heart of the vehicle and requires regular and timely maintenance. If the red light is on, go to a 4S shop immediately for inspection and repair, as the fault is very serious. If the yellow light is on, the fault does not affect driving, but you should still go for an inspection as soon as possible. Poor fuel quality, unclean engine cylinders, and carbon deposits may be the causes. It is recommended to go to a 4S shop to read the fault codes from the dashboard to determine the fault.

How to Deal with Wiper Scratches on the Windshield?

Clean the glass with a clean cloth to ensure there are no debris or impurities on the glass, and let the glass dry in a clean environment. Under a warm water faucet, take a clean, lint-free cloth—avoid rough fabrics and opt for smooth, non-shedding materials. Wring the cloth tightly until no more water drips out. Squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste onto the cloth according to the size of the scratch, adding more if needed. It's best to use white, non-gel toothpaste. Move the cloth in small circular motions over the scratched area for about 30 seconds, then rinse with clean water and repeat as necessary.

How to Perform Drifting with an Automatic Transmission?

First, switch the car to manual mode. For front-wheel-drive cars, drifting is usually performed using the handbrake technique. Accelerate the car to around 60~80 km/h. When entering the turn, steer the wheel half a turn toward the outside of the curve. Once the car starts to drift, quickly turn the wheel in the opposite direction to full lock while pulling up the handbrake. Find a suitable entry point for the turn and steer the wheel toward the intended direction for the drift circle. Press the accelerator, feel the rear of the car sliding, and quickly counter-steer.
