The function of the Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) system is to control wheel slippage within a certain range during vehicle acceleration, thereby preventing the drive wheels from spinning excessively. Its primary purposes are: 1) to enhance traction, and 2) to maintain driving stability. Further details are provided below: 1. Definition: The Automotive Anti-Slip Regulation System (Acceleration-Slip Regulation or Traction-Control-System), abbreviated as ASR or TCS, is a slip control system developed after ABS. It represents an advanced evolution and crucial supplement to ABS functionality. The ASR system is closely related to the ABS system and is typically used in conjunction with it, forming an active safety system for vehicle operation. 2. Working Principle: On slippery road surfaces, vehicles without ASR are prone to wheel spin during acceleration. Rear-wheel-drive vehicles may experience fishtailing, while front-wheel-drive vehicles may suffer from loss of steering control. With ASR, these phenomena are either prevented or significantly mitigated during acceleration. During cornering, if drive wheel slippage occurs, the entire vehicle may drift to one side. The ASR system helps maintain the correct turning trajectory. In ASR-equipped vehicles, the mechanical linkage between the accelerator pedal and the throttle valve (or diesel injection pump lever) is replaced by an electronic throttle control system. When sensors transmit throttle pedal position and wheel speed signals to the control unit (CPU), the unit generates control voltage signals. Servo motors adjust the throttle position (or diesel pump lever position) accordingly, with position feedback sent back to the control unit for timely brake adjustment.

What Causes the Humming Sound Near the Fuel Tank After the Car is Turned Off?

Car turned off after the fuel tank position has a humming sound is the sound of the fuel pump working, which is a normal phenomenon. The following is a related introduction about the car fuel tank: 1. Design principle: Utilize the heat energy generated by the engine during car operation to add a set of heat circulation system between the engine, fuel tank, and water tank. The original single fuel tank is designed as a combined fuel tank composed of a main fuel tank and an auxiliary fuel tank. 2. Fuel tank capacity calculation unit: The international standard uses L (liter) as the calculation unit for car fuel tank capacity. Different countries also have corresponding standards for car fuel tank capacity. In China, the car fuel tank capacity is regulated at 95% of the rated value, but depending on the actual situation, the actual capacity is generally larger than the nominal capacity, so there is no need to worry that the car fuel tank is smaller than the actual one.

Why Can't the Electronic Parking Brake Be Released?

Reasons why the electronic parking brake cannot be released: 1. There is a fault code in the electronic parking brake module; 2. The wiring of the electronic parking brake is broken or short-circuited; 3. The actuator motor of the electronic parking brake is malfunctioning. Below are precautions for using the electronic parking brake: 1. Accidental pressing: If it is accidentally pressed while driving, the electronic parking brake will not engage as the throttle is still in the working position. If pressed during emergency braking, the electronic parking brake will not lock the wheels but will provide stronger braking force to assist in braking. 2. Correct usage method: If the vehicle is equipped with an electronic parking brake, always engage the parking brake first before shifting to P (Park) gear. This helps prevent damage to the transmission and avoids the P gear lock pliers from getting stuck, which could prevent the vehicle from moving.

What does driving at a snail's pace mean?

Driving at a snail's pace refers to not keeping up with the speed of the traffic flow. For example, on a road where most vehicles maintain a speed of around 60 km/h, a vehicle moving at around 40 km/h while being continuously overtaken by others is considered to be driving at a snail's pace. The following are the hazards of driving at a snail's pace: 1. It disrupts the normal traffic order on highways and reduces their efficiency; 2. It is highly likely to cause rear-end collisions and side-swipe accidents, resulting in severe personal injuries and vehicle damage to both parties involved, and may even lead to fatal accidents. Methods to avoid low-speed driving: 1. Learn to drive properly and improve driving skills; 2. Plan the driving route in advance; 3. Consciously cultivate good habits of civilized driving; 4. While driving, pay attention to speed limit signs and the speedometer to eliminate low-speed driving.

How many brands does Mercedes-Benz have?

Mercedes-Benz has three brands under its umbrella: Maybach, SMART, and Mercedes-Benz. Maybach: Maybach is an automobile brand. Maybach (German: Maybach) and Maybach-Motorenbau GmbH was a German ultra-luxury car brand and manufacturer active in Europe from 1921 to 1940. The founder of the company, Karl Maybach, was the son of Wilhelm Maybach, who served as the chief technical director of Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft (the predecessor of today's Daimler Group), hence the deep connection between the two companies. In 1997, the DaimlerChrysler Group showcased a concept ultra-luxury four-door sedan named Maybach at the Tokyo Motor Show, officially reviving this German car brand after many years of absence. SMART: smart is the result of a collaboration between Germany's Mercedes-Benz and Swiss watch giant Swatch. The 'S' in the name represents Swatch, 'M' stands for Mercedes-Benz, and 'art' means art, symbolizing the artistic nature of the partnership. The word 'smart' itself implies cleverness and wit, aligning with the brand's philosophy. With the increasing number of vehicles in modern cities, many car manufacturers have proposed the concept of micro urban commuter cars. smart, developed by Swatch, is no exception. With the technical support of Mercedes-Benz, smart retains the creativity of concept cars while combining fashion and practicality. Its compact design, coupled with intelligent and user-friendly controls, makes smart models resemble clever big toys. Mercedes-Benz: Mercedes-Benz, a German automobile brand, is the inventor of the automobile and is considered one of the most successful premium car brands in the world. Its perfect technical level, high-quality standards, innovative capabilities, and a series of classic coupe models are highly praised. The Mercedes three-pointed star has become one of the most famous car and brand logos in the world. In October 2016, Mercedes-Benz ranked 9th in the list of the world's 100 most valuable brands.

What Causes Plastic Rattling Noises Inside the Car on Bumpy Roads?

Most rattling noises in the car when driving on bumpy roads are caused by the hardening and aging of the shock absorber top rubber. There is rubber at the connection points between the shock absorbers and the car body, known as the shock absorber top rubber. This rubber provides cushioning for the car body and reduces vibrations. Over time, the rubber ages and hardens, leading to rattling noises when driving over uneven surfaces. Additional information includes: 1. Antifreeze usage tips: It is best to use antifreeze year-round. Besides its antifreeze and cooling functions, antifreeze also has cleaning, rust removal, and anti-corrosion properties, reducing radiator corrosion and protecting the engine. Be sure to choose the correct color of antifreeze and avoid mixing different types. 2. Brake fluid usage tips: The functionality of the brake system is closely related to the brake fluid. When inspecting or replacing brake pads, discs, and other hardware, don’t forget to check if the brake fluid needs topping up or replacing.

What does it mean when a Volkswagen displays a tire pressure loss warning?

When a Volkswagen displays a tire pressure loss warning, it indicates an issue with the tire pressure, causing the pressure sensor to detect an abnormality. In this case, the tires need to be checked. When the tire pressure monitoring system detects insufficient pressure in one or more of the vehicle's tires, a warning light will illuminate on the dashboard along with a text alert to notify the driver. There's no need to panic in this situation. As long as the tire isn't damaged, the vehicle can usually still be driven. If the alarm goes off while driving, avoid slamming on the brakes, as sudden braking could cause a tire blowout. Instead, gradually reduce speed and pull over safely. If there are vehicles behind you, turn on the hazard warning lights to alert them. Then, exit the vehicle and inspect all four tires for any issues. If a problem is found, call for roadside assistance immediately. Additionally, avoid overloading the trunk with too many items. Excessive vehicle weight can also trigger the tire pressure monitoring system to detect low pressure, as the added weight reduces tire pressure. Prolonged driving in this state can eventually damage the tires.
