KDSS stands for Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System. Below are relevant introductions about KDSS: 1. Composition of KDSS: It is an electronically controlled power-adjustable suspension system. It combines two seemingly contradictory performance characteristics: During off-road driving, it allows the suspension to extend freely, ensuring sufficient wheel travel for tire grounding, thereby improving stability and passability. During highway driving, it suppresses suspension extension, with the stabilizer bar twisting to counteract steering tilt, enhancing handling and comfort. 2. Performance description of KDSS: In KDSS normal mode, when the vehicle is in a turning state, the outer suspensions of both front and rear wheels are compressed, while the inner suspensions are extended. This causes the stabilizer bar to twist, resisting body roll. There is no fluid flow between the two pipelines connected to the two hydraulic pumps, operating similarly to conventional suspensions but with effectively enhanced anti-roll capability.

What are the consequences of speeding on highways?

Speeding at highway speed monitoring points will be photographed by electronic police: 1. If the speed exceeds the limit by less than 10% on highways or national roads, a warning will be issued without penalty points or fines, and no need to visit the vehicle management office; 2. If the speed exceeds the limit by 10% to 20%, 3 penalty points will be deducted along with a fine; 3. If the speed exceeds the limit by 20% to 50%, 6 penalty points will be deducted along with a fine; 4. If the speed exceeds the limit by more than 50%, 12 penalty points will be deducted at once along with a fine, and the driver's license may also be revoked, with the fine amount increasing as the speeding rate rises; 5. If the speed exceeds the limit by 70%, a fine will be imposed, 12 penalty points will be deducted, and the driver's license may also be revoked.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Changan Ruixing M80?

Small cars have a fuel tank capacity of 35-45 liters, while medium-sized cars have a fuel tank capacity of around 55-75 liters. Additional information is as follows: 1. Driving range: A full tank can typically cover about 500 kilometers. The size of the fuel tank depends on the vehicle's displacement and fuel consumption—larger fuel tanks are for vehicles with higher fuel consumption, and smaller tanks are for those with lower consumption. The fuel tank capacity is designed to allow a driving range of 400~600 kilometers. Lighter vehicles with smaller displacements have correspondingly smaller fuel tanks, while heavier vehicles with larger displacements naturally have larger fuel tanks. However, the maximum range on a full tank is generally between 400~600 kilometers. 2. How to determine a car's fuel tank capacity: The standard unit for measuring fuel tank capacity internationally is liters (L). Different countries have their own standards for fuel tank capacity. In China, the fuel tank capacity is set at 95% of the rated value, but in practice, the actual capacity is often greater than the nominal capacity, so there's no need to worry about the fuel tank being smaller than expected.

Can a Motorcycle Engine Blow Up from Riding Too Fast?

Motorcycle riding too fast may potentially cause engine seizure, but it generally does not happen. Causes of motorcycle engine seizure: Motorcycle "engine seizure" is usually caused by poor lubrication, excessive load, or engine overheating. If the riding speed is too high and sustained for too long or the load is excessive, there is a possibility of "engine seizure." However, as long as the speed is not sustained for too long and the engine oil lubrication is normal, there should be no issues. That said, high-speed riding causes significant wear to the engine, and frequent high-speed riding will inevitably shorten its normal lifespan. Precautions for long-distance riding: For example, regularly maintain the motorcycle using high-quality lubricating oil. Additionally, for safety reasons, the rider must take appropriate breaks. Under normal circumstances, after about three hours of riding, a break of half an hour or a quarter of an hour should be taken.

Why does the Volkswagen T-Roc make abnormal noises at low speeds?

Abnormal braking noises at low speeds are likely due to severely worn brake pads, where the warning shim emits sharp abnormal sounds to prompt replacement. Alternatively, excessive wear on the brake disc or brake drum, which becomes too thin, can also cause abnormal noises. Another possibility is that newly replaced brake pads may not fit properly with the brake disc or drum, resulting in point or line contact that generates abnormal noises. Additional information is as follows: 1. Brake lifespan: The replacement cycle for brake pads is not fixed and depends on the vehicle's driving conditions, the frequency and intensity of the driver's use of the brake pedal. Front brake pads wear out faster than rear ones, with a lifespan of approximately 30,000-50,000 kilometers for front brake pads and 100,000-150,000 kilometers for rear brake pads. 2. Specific causes: Faults in the caliper, brake disc, or brake pads can all produce such noises. If the noise is continuous, the first step is to check for dragging brakes, as poor caliper reset can cause prolonged friction between the disc and pad, leading to abnormal noises under certain conditions. If the noise occurs immediately after installing new pads, it may be due to a mismatch in size between the new pads and the friction block.

What is the pressure for adding refrigerant to a car?

Generally, the pressure for adding refrigerant to a car's air conditioning system is 150-250 kPa for the low pressure side and 1300-1500 kPa for the high pressure side. Methods for adding car refrigerant: It can be added from either the high-pressure side or the low-pressure side. These two methods differ significantly due to the state of the refrigerant being added. The high-pressure side method involves adding liquid refrigerant, which is suitable for the initial filling after leak detection and vacuuming. Note that this method requires the engine to be off, and the refrigerant can must be inverted. The low-pressure side method involves adding gaseous refrigerant, which is slower and typically used for topping up refrigerant. Precautions when adding car refrigerant: After completing the refrigerant addition, close the low-pressure manual valve on the manifold pressure gauge, shut off the injection valve on the refrigerant can, stop the engine, and quickly remove the manifold pressure gauge from the compressor to prevent excessive refrigerant leakage.

Is there a difference in fuel consumption between off-road tires and highway tires?

Off-road tires of the same brand and specification consume more fuel than highway tires. Here are the differences between the two: 1. Appearance: Off-road tires have wide and deep tread grooves with a smaller contact area, providing greater traction. Their lateral tread pattern features continuous horizontal grooves and disconnected vertical grooves, making them suitable for medium or heavy-duty trucks with high traction requirements on general hard surfaces. Highway tires have softer sidewall materials, offering a quiet driving experience, while their intricate tread patterns ensure sufficient grip and drainage. 2. Fuel consumption: Due to the higher contact pressure and rolling resistance of off-road tire tread blocks, prolonged driving on hard surfaces accelerates tire wear, increases fuel consumption, and causes more noticeable vehicle vibration. Therefore, they are better suited for rugged, uneven roads, soft dirt paths, and off-road conditions. Highway tire treads are designed to enhance the elasticity of the contact patch, generating smaller tangential forces between the tire and road surface compared to off-road tires.
