1 Answers
The reason for the ticking sound from the chassis after turning off the engine is: when the vehicle is running, the internal components of the car reach high temperatures and expand slightly due to heat. After turning off the engine, the heat source is lost, and the components cool down due to the ambient temperature. As they contract upon cooling, some parts produce a ticking sound. Daily maintenance methods for the chassis include: 1. Proper adjustment of the front wheel toe-in; 2. Good lubrication and proper adjustment of the wheel hub bearings; 3. Monitoring changes in the front and rear axles and the frame; 4. Checking for any damage to the leaf springs; 5. Proper adjustment of the brake clearance; 6. Paying attention to the working condition of the clutch. The function of the car chassis is to support and install the engine and its various components, forming the overall shape of the vehicle. It also receives the power generated by the engine, ensuring normal movement and operation of the car.
