This is the sound from the braking system. Below is relevant information about the braking system: 1. Introduction: The braking system consists of a control system, hydraulic system, and power assist system. 2. Working principle: The principle of the braking system is to generate significant friction, converting the vehicle's kinetic energy into thermal energy. As we all know, energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transformed from one form to another, or transferred from one object to another, with the total amount of energy remaining constant during the process of transformation or transfer. During acceleration, the car converts chemical energy into thermal and kinetic energy, and when braking, the braking system converts the car's kinetic energy into thermal energy, which is then dissipated into the air.

I've been repairing cars for many years. A noise from the rear wheels during startup is mostly caused by rusted brake discs sticking, especially after parking overnight or starting after rain when you'll hear friction sounds. It could also be due to loose wheel hub bearings, creating abnormal noises when the wheels rotate while driving. Don't underestimate this issue—it can seriously affect braking performance if left unchecked. I recommend inspecting the brake system and wheel axle areas as soon as possible. Regular car maintenance can prevent rust; just use some brake cleaner. Safety is no small matter—don't delay repairs to save money and end up needing major overhauls. Taking some time to check things is always worthwhile.

My SUV often makes a creaking sound from the rear wheels when starting cold. The mechanic said it could be due to stuck brake pads or wheel bearing issues. It's more noticeable in cold weather. A simple method is to lightly press the brakes before moving to identify the source of the sound. If it only happens once, it might be safer, but if the sound persists, you must take it to the shop to check for wheel hub wear. My experience is to park in a dry place to reduce rust and make it a habit to check tire conditions. These small details can make driving more reassuring.

A noise from the rear wheel upon startup might be due to sticky brake pads or an old, loose wheel hub. After driving your car onto a ramp, try pushing the wheel to check for resistance. If it's stuck, replace the parts soon. Don't wait until the noise worsens—it's costly and dangerous. Choosing good tires to minimize slipping saves money and hassle. Safety first—address issues promptly for simple and efficient solutions.

What to Do When the ABS Light Comes On?

When the ABS light comes on, it indicates a malfunction in the anti-lock braking system. Possible causes include a faulty sensor, issues with the ABS wiring harness, the ABS control module, or the braking system, leading to the failure of the ABS anti-lock braking function. It is important to drive at a low speed to a 4S shop for inspection and repair to eliminate safety hazards. ABS is a vehicle safety control system with advantages such as anti-skid and anti-lock features. It is an improved technology based on conventional braking systems and can be categorized into mechanical and electronic types. ABS not only provides the braking function of a standard braking system but also prevents wheel lock-up, allowing the vehicle to steer while braking, ensuring directional stability, and preventing skidding or deviation.

Where are the accelerator and brake pedals located?

Accelerator and brake pedal positions: Manual transmission vehicles have three pedals, arranged from left to right as the clutch pedal, brake pedal, and accelerator pedal; automatic transmission vehicles have two pedals, arranged from left to right as the brake pedal and accelerator pedal. The brake, also referred to as the deceleration device, is the mechanism used to stop or reduce the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, other transportation tools, or machinery. In cars, the accelerator, brake, and clutch are separate. The clutch is on the left and is controlled by the left foot, while the accelerator and brake are on the right, both controlled by the right foot. When braking, avoid sudden stops; instead, apply gradual pressure from light to heavy. Frequent sudden braking can easily damage the brake system.

What is the difference between electronic parking brake and auto hold in cars?

Here is the difference between electronic parking brake and auto hold in cars: 1. Different braking duration: Auto hold is a temporary braking system, while the electronic parking brake is for long-term braking. Together, they form an intelligent braking control system that integrates temporary braking during driving and long-term braking after parking, both achieved through electronic control. 2. Different usage methods: The electronic parking brake works like the handbrake in a manual transmission car—you need to release it when driving and engage it when parking. Auto hold, on the other hand, automatically engages and releases the handbrake during driving. The electronic parking brake is suitable for use before and after long-term parking, while auto hold is suitable for stop-and-go traffic conditions.

How many brake lights does the Tiida have?

Nissan Tiida has 3 brake lights. Brake lights are generally installed at the rear of the vehicle, with the main body color being red, to enhance the penetration of the light source. This ensures that vehicles behind can easily detect the braking of the vehicle in front, even in low visibility conditions, thereby helping to prevent rear-end collisions. Below is the classification of automotive lights: 1. Headlights: Combined headlights are located at the front of the car, primarily serving illumination and signaling purposes. The light emitted by headlights illuminates the road ahead, enabling the driver to drive safely at night. 2. Taillights: Combined taillights are located at the rear of the car, mainly serving illumination and signaling purposes. 3. Turn signals: Used to indicate left or right turns to other road users. Regulations require them to be amber in color. 4. License plate lights: Primarily used to illuminate the license plate, allowing people to identify the vehicle's license plate at night.

What is the fuel consumption of the Honda Odyssey?

The fuel consumption of the Honda Odyssey ranges from 5.7L to 9.2L. The fuel consumption of the Honda Odyssey ranges from 5.7L to 9.2L. Automobile fuel consumption can be divided into two types, with specific classifications as follows: 1. Constant-Speed Fuel Economy: Constant-speed fuel economy refers to the fuel efficiency indicator when a car is driving at a constant speed on a good road surface. Since constant-speed driving is a basic operating condition for cars on highways, and this type of fuel consumption is easy to measure, it is widely adopted. 2. Fuel Economy of Chassis Dynamometer Test Cycles: Road cycle fuel consumption is the fuel efficiency indicator measured when a car is driven in repeated cycles according to specified speed and time regulations on the road, also known as multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption. In the speed and time regulations, each cycle includes various driving conditions, and specifies the shift timing, braking and stopping time, as well as the values of driving speed, acceleration, and braking deceleration for each cycle.

What does the radial of a tire mean?

Tire radial, also known as the meridian line, refers to the arrangement direction of the internal cord fabric of the tire at a 90-degree angle to the centerline of the tread, resembling the meridians on a globe. Below is relevant information: 1. Introduction: Radial tires (radial-tire) are a type of tire structure, different from bias tires, arched tires, and pressure-regulating tires. The international code for radial tires is "R", commonly known as "steel-belted tires". 2. Characteristics: The arrangement of the cord fabric in radial tires differs from that in bias tires. In radial tires, the cords are not arranged in a crisscross pattern but are nearly parallel to the cross-section of the outer tire, resembling the arrangement of the Earth's meridians. The cord angle is small, generally 0°, and there are no intersecting points between the cords of the tire body. When the tire is in motion, the stress around the crown increases, causing axial extension and radial cracking of the tire body.
