In urban areas, vehicle speeds rarely exceed 60 km/h, mostly ranging between 30 to 50 km/h. Below are specific details about relevant aspects: 1. Activation conditions: Airbags do not deploy in all collisions. They only activate when two conditions are met simultaneously - the collision angle (the angle between the impact direction and the vehicle's central axis) must be less than 30 degrees (occurring in frontal collisions within ±30 degrees of the vehicle's central axis), and the collision intensity must be sufficiently strong. 2. Protective function of airbags: The frontal impact force must form an angle of less than 30 degrees with the vehicle's axis for airbag deployment. Airbags won't activate if the vehicle speed is below 20 km/h. This is because collisions occurring at speeds under 20 km/h, while potentially damaging the front of the vehicle, can already provide effective occupant protection through the vehicle's front crumple zones and seatbelts.

What does the P0650 fault code mean?

P0650 fault code refers to the malfunction indicator lamp control circuit, also known as the engine light. Additional information about the P0650 fault code is as follows: 1. The P0650 fault code is usually an intermittent fault light code. For example, if the vehicle is started multiple times and then immediately turned off, or if the starter fails to engage within a very short time (less than one second), the solution is to clear the fault storage code. If it cannot be deleted, it may be caused by wiring issues. Check the instrument wiring and try again. 2. Before clearing the P0650 fault code, the power should be turned on, but the engine should not be started. Then wait for the computer to enter the initialization state. Before reading the code, visually inspect whether the connections of mechanical components related to the electronic control system are loose, leaking, or blocked, and check if there is any air leakage in the air flow meter sensor, etc.

What is the difference between a 7-speed dual-clutch and a CVT?

The main differences between a 7-speed dual-clutch and a CVT are: different nature, different principles, and different characteristics. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Different nature: The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission is a dry clutch, developed on the basis of 6-speed technology research, which simplifies the related hydraulic system. It is generally used in conjunction with small-displacement engines. The continuously variable transmission is a stepless automatic transmission, without specific gears, and its operation is similar to an automatic transmission, but the speed change differs from the shifting process of an automatic transmission. 2. Different principles: The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission consists of three similarly sized clutch plates of the dual-clutch stacked coaxially. The two clutch plates on the sides are connected to gears 1, 3, 5, 7 and 2, 4, 6, reverse respectively, with a central disc moving between them, simultaneously engaging or disengaging with the two clutch plates to shift gears.

How to Solve the Problem of Brake Dragging and Not Returning to Position?

The solutions for brakes not returning to position are as follows: 1. A broken or lost elasticity return spring can easily cause the brake not to return to position. Simply replace the brake pedal return spring. 2. The brake caliper piston seizing can cause braking resistance, and the brake caliper remains fixed. When braking, the caliper clamps the brake disc to complete the braking action. If the caliper seizes, not only will the brake pedal fail to return, but the car will also be unable to move forward. In this case, replacing the brake caliper is necessary. 3. If the rear wheel bearing is fixed or installed incorrectly, or if the rear wheel bearing is worn, dry, or damaged, the brake pads may be in an improper position, leading to the pedal not returning. 4. If the front and rear brake pads are contaminated by lubricating oil or brake fluid, or if the brake pads are worn, damaged, polished, or deformed due to overheating, simply replace the brake pads directly.

What Causes No Sound in Car Radio?

The reasons for no sound in a car radio include a broken audio output wire, pressing the mute button on the radio, or a blown radio fuse. Below are the specific causes and solutions for a car radio with no sound: Specific causes of no sound in car radio: Audio output wire, i.e., the wire connected to the speaker, is broken; pressing the mute button on the radio; radio fuse is blown, causing a circuit break. Solutions for no sound in car radio: Install a signal amplifier: For many aftermarket car radios, most do not come with a signal amplifier. If you frequently encounter sudden loss of sound in the car radio, installing a signal amplifier can help. Replace the radio tuner: Whether it's an aftermarket or factory-installed car radio, after prolonged use, the signal reception may degrade, and installing a signal amplifier may not be effective. In such cases, check if there is any issue with the antenna. If not, it is likely due to aging of the radio tuner. Replacing it will improve signal reception.

What brand of tire is sailwin?

sailwin is Sailwin tires, produced in Shandong, known for good wear resistance and excellent after-sales service. Here is more relevant information: 1. Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, thereby improving driving safety. 2. The main functions of tires are to support the entire weight of the vehicle and bear the load of the car; transmit traction and braking torque to ensure the adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; reduce and absorb vibrations and impacts during driving, prevent severe vibrations and premature damage to vehicle components, adapt to high-speed performance while reducing driving noise, and ensure safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency. 3. The tire body needs sufficient strength and elasticity to withstand strong vibrations and impacts, as well as the repeated deformations caused by radial, lateral, and circumferential forces acting on the tire during driving. The tire body consists of one or more layers of silica cord fabric, which provides the necessary strength for the tire body and the entire outer tire.

What does 17570r14 tire mean?

175 represents the tire's cross-sectional width of 175MM; 70 represents the aspect ratio; 14 represents the rim size of 14 inches. More related details are as follows: 1. Tire specifications are commonly represented by a set of numbers, with the first number indicating the tire section width and the latter indicating the rim diameter, measured in inches. 2. Some tires also include other letters or symbols with special meanings: "X" denotes high-pressure tires; "C" denotes reinforced tires; "B" denotes bias-ply tires; "-" denotes low-pressure tires. M and S are abbreviations for Mud and Snow in English, indicating that these tires are suitable for use on snowy and muddy roads. 3. There is also a special mark on tires: the wear replacement indicator. Different manufacturers have different markings—Michelin uses a small tire man, Pirelli displays a TWI mark, and some tires use a prominent white indicator.
