Play in the front wheels shaking left and right is caused by a loose front chassis bracket or a loose ball joint. Below is relevant information about tires: 1. Tire Introduction: Tires are the only components of a car that come into contact with the ground. Some car owners only replace the tires on the drive wheels when changing tires. For example, some front-wheel-drive car owners only replace the two front tires, while some rear-wheel-drive car owners only replace the two rear tires. In fact, this practice is acceptable. 2. Tire Aging: Tires are rubber products and will age over time. It is recommended that car owners replace their tires every four years, and even if the mileage is low within those four years, they should still be replaced. Since tires can also age when left unused for long periods, it is important to check the production date when purchasing tires.

What Are the Methods to Improve the Economic Service Life of a Car?

Here are the methods to improve the economic service life of a car: Body Maintenance: Body maintenance, commonly referred to as car detailing, primarily aims to remove various oxidation and corrosion from the exterior and interior of the car, followed by protection to highlight the car's 'beauty'. It mainly includes paint maintenance, seat cushion and carpet maintenance, bumper and skirt maintenance, dashboard maintenance, electroplating maintenance, leather and plastic maintenance, tire and wheel hub warranty, windshield maintenance, chassis maintenance, and engine exterior maintenance. Interior Maintenance: While body maintenance keeps the car looking youthful, interior maintenance ensures the car can run hundreds of thousands of kilometers without major repairs, maintaining it in optimal technical condition. It mainly includes the maintenance of the lubrication system, fuel system, cooling system, braking system, and carburetor (fuel injector). Body Refurbishment: This includes diagnosing and treating deep scratches, repairing multi-material bumpers, fixing hard damage to wheel hubs (covers), refurbishing leather and synthetic fiber materials, and repainting the engine.

What Causes the Car Air Conditioner to Suddenly Stop Cooling While Driving?

Excessive accumulation of impurities and dust on the condenser can lead to poor cooling performance. Below is relevant information about automotive air conditioning systems: 1. Introduction to Automotive Air Conditioning: An automotive air conditioning system consists of a compressor, condenser, throttle element, evaporator, fan, and necessary control components. Its purpose is to regulate the temperature and humidity inside the vehicle, providing a comfortable environment for the driver. 2. Working Principle: When the compressor operates, it draws in low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant from the evaporator. After compression, the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant increase, and it is sent to the condenser. Inside the condenser, the high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant transfers heat to the outside air passing through the condenser, causing it to liquefy and turn into a liquid. When the liquid refrigerant flows through the throttle device, its temperature and pressure decrease, and it enters the evaporator. Inside the evaporator, the low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the air passing through the evaporator, causing it to evaporate and turn into a gas. The gas is then drawn back into the compressor to begin the next cycle.

What are the differences between the 2021 and 2020 Outlander models?

The differences between the 2021 and 2020 Outlander models are as follows: 1. Body dimensions: The 2020 Outlander has a length of 4705mm, a width of 1810mm, a height of 1710mm, and a wheelbase of 2670mm. Based on its length and wheelbase, the Outlander falls into the compact SUV category. In terms of body dimensions, the Outlander measures 4695mm in length, 1810mm in width, and 1680mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2670mm. 2. Powertrain: The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander is equipped with two different engines: a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine and a 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, delivering maximum horsepower of 166 and 192, respectively. All models come standard with a CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 6 gears) and a double independent suspension system. Some models are also equipped with a four-wheel drive system. For the powertrain, the new car still offers the 2.0L and 2.4L naturally aspirated engines, paired with a CVT transmission.

How to Determine if There is Air in the Brake Fluid?

Methods to determine if there is air in the brake fluid are: 1. Start the vehicle and press the brake pedal forcefully; if it sinks all the way to the floor, this indicates the presence of air. 2. After starting the vehicle, press the brake pedal; if the first press feels unusually low but returns to normal after a few presses, and if releasing the pedal for a few minutes and pressing it again restores normal function, this also indicates the presence of air. The method to bleed air from the brake fluid is: 1. Press the brake pedal continuously 5 to 6 times. 2. Keep the brake pedal pressed down, then immediately loosen the air bleed screw on the right rear wheel brake caliper and quickly tighten it again. 3. Repeat this process until the brake fluid shoots out in a straight line from the air bleed screw. Brake fluid, also known as hydraulic brake fluid, is a functional liquid in the vehicle's braking system that transmits pressure to enable the braking action on the wheels. Brake fluid does not undergo chemical reactions, is unaffected by high temperatures, and does not corrode, soften, or expand metals and rubber.

What are the four modes of BYD DMI?

BYD DMI includes four modes: Pure Electric Economy Mode, Pure Electric Sport Mode, Hybrid Economy Mode, and Hybrid Sport Mode. Its working principle is based on the design of high-safety blade batteries and high-performance high-power motors, primarily relying on high-power efficient motors for driving. The main role of the gasoline engine is to generate electricity within the efficient speed range and directly drive the vehicle at appropriate times. By changing the traditional hybrid technology design that primarily relies on the engine, fuel consumption is significantly reduced. Pure Electric Economy Mode: The car does not use the engine and operates using the battery. Pure Electric Sport Mode: The car does not use the engine, and the controller supplies the motor with maximum current. Hybrid Economy Mode: When the speed is below 40km/h and the battery level is above 15%, the engine is not used. When the speed exceeds 40km/h, the engine automatically starts, providing only 10% of the power, while the controller gradually increases the motor's current to charge the battery. If the speed is below 40km/h and the battery level is below 15%, the engine will also start but does not provide power to the car, instead idling to charge the battery. Hybrid Sport Mode: The engine transmits 100% of its power to the wheels, and the motor also operates at maximum power.

What Causes the ABS and Anti-Skid Lights to Illuminate in the Compass?

The illumination of the ABS and anti-skid lights in the Compass may be due to sensor damage or faults in both the ABS and braking systems. Below are detailed explanations: 1. Sensor: If the sensor is damaged, there might be interference from the navigation system if one is present, or the tires could be slipping. The owner should determine if the vehicle might lose control, use a computer to check the ABS sensor to eliminate the fault, and resolve the ABS light issue; then the anti-skid light will not illuminate. 2. Faults in both the ABS and braking systems: If only the ABS warning light is on while driving, it indicates a fault in the ABS system, but the car can still rely on the conventional braking system to brake. Professional inspection and repair should be sought as soon as possible. If both the ABS warning light and the braking system warning light illuminate simultaneously while driving, it indicates faults in both the ABS and braking systems. The braking characteristics will change. In the latter case, the vehicle must be stopped immediately. Check the brake fluid level; if the level is at the "min" mark, do not continue driving and seek professional inspection and repair. If the fluid level is normal, it indicates that the ABS system may have a fault, meaning the ABS system's regulation function has failed, and only the ordinary braking system will work. This can easily cause the rear wheels to lock up quickly during braking, leading to skidding.
