The small round hole on the rear bumper is a towing eye, used for towing. Here is some relevant information about bumpers: 1. Component Function: The car bumper (also known as an impact beam) is located in most areas at the front and rear of the vehicle. It is designed to prevent external damage from affecting the vehicle's safety systems and has the capability to reduce injuries to passengers during high-speed collisions. Nowadays, more and more bumpers are designed for pedestrian protection. 2. Origin and Definition: The car bumper is a safety device that absorbs and mitigates external impacts, protecting the front and rear parts of the vehicle body. Twenty years ago, the front and rear bumpers of cars were mainly made of metal materials, using steel plates with a thickness of more than 3 millimeters pressed into U-shaped channel steel, with chrome-plated surfaces. They were riveted or welded to the longitudinal beams of the frame, with a relatively large gap between the bumper and the body, making it seem like an additional component.

Can the Last Year's Vehicle Inspection Sticker Be Removed?

Whether the last year's vehicle inspection sticker can be removed depends on whether the inspection has expired. If a new inspection sticker has been issued after the completion of the annual inspection, the old one can be removed. However, the compulsory traffic insurance sticker cannot be removed if it has not yet expired. When driving on the road, the vehicle must display both the compulsory traffic insurance sticker and the vehicle inspection sticker. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, when driving a motor vehicle on the road, the vehicle license plate must be displayed, along with the inspection qualification sticker and insurance sticker, and the vehicle's driving license must be carried. The vehicle license plate must be displayed clearly and completely as required, without intentional obstruction or damage. No unit or individual is allowed to confiscate or detain the vehicle license plate.

What is the principle of the air brake master cylinder?

Principle of the air brake master cylinder is introduced as follows: When the brake pedal is pressed: The pull rod drives the brake valve arm downward, and the upper end of the brake pin is lowered with the pin shaft as the fulcrum, so that the air inlets of the upper and lower chambers of the brake valve are connected to the air outlets of the chambers respectively. This allows the air in the front and rear chambers of the storage cylinder to enter the front and rear brake chambers through the upper and lower chambers of the brake valve, thereby pushing the brake into operation. When the brake pedal is released: The brake valve connects the brake chamber to the atmosphere to release the brake. The maximum stroke of the parking brake chamber push rod is 10% larger than that of the drive brake push rod. Therefore, when the drive brake push rod has already moved to the maximum stroke, but the brake clearance is too large to achieve full braking, the parking brake chamber can be vented, and the drive brake push rod can be further pushed out with the help of the energy storage spring to achieve full braking.

How to Determine if a Tire is Leaking Air?

Methods to determine if a tire is leaking air include: 1. Check for damage on the tire sidewall and inner edge. The extent of damage to the tire sidewall can be directly observed, with severe cases showing cracks or bulges. Damage to the inner edge of the tire can only be inspected after removing the tire; 2. Foreign objects puncturing the tire. If the punctured area is hidden, you can sprinkle water on the tire surface. If bubbles appear, it indicates the tire is leaking air; 3. Deformation of the wheel rim flange. If the deformation is not obvious, you need to remove the wheel first, then sprinkle water on the connection area between the tire and the rim. The spot where bubbles form is where the rim deformation causes a hidden leak; 4. Damage to the tire valve. To check the valve, besides looking for cracks on its surface, you can also feel the softness of the valve rubber by touching it with your hand.

What are the symptoms of a faulty Sylphy water pump?

Sylphy water pump failure may exhibit the following 3 symptoms: 1. Idling issues: The water pump is connected to the belt, drawing cold water from the radiator to cool the engine. If the pump's rotation is problematic, it will directly affect engine speed; 2. Coolant leakage: Most water pump failures result in coolant leakage, caused by aging of the pump's sealing ring. Over-tightening of the engine serpentine belt can also lead to premature pump wear. Failure to replace antifreeze for extended periods may cause internal corrosion, ultimately damaging the pump. Operating beyond its service life without replacement can also cause failure; 3. Engine noise: When opening the hood and starting the engine, if a low grinding noise is heard, it may indicate damaged pump bearings. The automotive engine uses a centrifugal water pump, whose basic structure consists of the pump housing, connecting plate or pulley, pump shaft and bearings or integrated shaft bearings, pump impeller, and seal assembly. It is a major component of the vehicle.

To achieve optimal fuel consumption, it is recommended to use gasoline that is sulfur-free or contains as little sulfur as possible. 4. The use of fuel labeled as containing metal on the fuel pump is not permitted. 5. Fuels with an ethanol content of up to 25%, such as E10 or E25, can be used. 6. The engine is equipped with an anti-knock control function, allowing the use of different grades of gasoline. 7. The vehicle manufacturer suggests mixing 100 milliliters of an appropriate gasoline additive during each refueling process.

How to Deal with the EDC Warning Light in Iveco?

EDC warning light indicates a fault in the electronic fuel injection system. When this issue occurs, it is necessary to visit a 4S shop or a professional repair shop for handling. Below are specific details about EDC: 1. EDC stands for Electric Diesel Control, representing the electronic control system for diesel injection. An EDC fault refers to a problem with the high-pressure electronic injection and electronic control system, which can be understood as a type of engine malfunction. Specialized diagnostic equipment is required for inspection and analysis. Do not attempt to loosen or inspect it yourself, as high-pressure fuel line sprays can cause harm. Professional inspection at a repair shop is necessary. 2. An illuminated engine warning light does not pose significant harm to the engine but may increase fuel consumption. Typically, this indicates an issue with the high-voltage circuit of the engine, the fuel injector, or the oxygen sensor circuit. First, check if the high-voltage wires or spark plugs have been affected by car washing, rain, or have come loose.
