When a normally moving car suddenly brakes in an emergency, the lower body of the people inside stops with the car, while the upper body continues to move forward due to inertia, maintaining its original state. This is because the passengers have inertia, not the car. Introduction to braking: Braking, also known as stopping, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, and other transportation tools or machinery. Principle of braking: The general principle of braking is to fix a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and install corresponding brake shoes, belts, or discs on the machine base, which generate braking torque under external force. The braking device, also known as a decelerator, is a mechanical braking device that can slow down the speed.

Why doesn't the electronic fan of Audi A6L air conditioner rotate?

Audi A6L air conditioner electronic fan does not rotate due to a faulty fan relay. Specific location of the relay: Open the driver's side door of the Audi A6L. Pull the hood switch located on the left side of the driver's leg area. Lift up the engine hood of the Audi A6L. Use the support rod to secure the hood, ensuring it is firmly supported to avoid any hazards. The fuse box of the Audi A6L is located at the position shown in the diagram. Method for replacing the relay: Open the electric fan motor, inspect the damaged insulation, and perform insulation treatment. Replace the coil if the damage is severe. Check the damaged insulation and reinforce the insulation treatment. If the damage is significant, replace the winding. Open the electric fan for cleaning, then dry it thoroughly. It is best to soak it in insulating varnish once more, and finally use an insulation resistance meter to test the insulation condition. Solder and replace the new lead wires.

What is the name of the black plastic half-arc above the tire?

The black plastic half-arc above the tire is called the wheel arch trim. It refers to the chrome-plated bright strip along the upper edge of the tire, which is a semi-circular component protruding from the fender above the car tire. It consists of 1/2 steel plate and 1/2 plastic, and is the same for both front and rear wheels. Most people call it the 'eyebrow' of the wheel, hence the name wheel arch trim! The main purpose of the wheel arch trim is for decoration and to meet the driver's personalized needs. Here is additional information: The function of the wheel arch trim: It prevents rainwater and gravel from being splashed onto the car body by the wheels during rainy days, which could damage the paint. Generally, the wheel arch trim of factory cars is slightly wider than the tire. Of course, modified cars are an exception, as they usually install rims that align perfectly with the wheel arch trim (fender) for aesthetic purposes when changing tires.

Should the Clutch and Brake Be Pressed Together When Parking on a Slope?

When parking on a slope, the clutch and brake should be pressed together. While pressing the clutch pedal can slow down the vehicle when going uphill, it is not recommended, especially for beginners. If both the clutch and brake are pressed firmly at the same time, it means there is no room for adjustment when stopping. If the clutch is pressed first, the vehicle will still move forward a certain distance due to inertia. Here are some additional tips: Align the vehicle body when going uphill: After starting the test, follow the voice prompts, turn on the right turn signal, and move closer to the standard line on the right side of the road. During this process, you can make slight adjustments to the steering wheel, but do not stray too far from the standard line. While moving closer, you can check whether the vehicle body is parallel to the standard line by observing the right rearview mirror. If they are parallel, it means the vehicle body has been straightened.

What does the out-the-door price refer to?

Out-the-door price refers to all the expenses incurred from purchasing a car until it is licensed. In addition to the base vehicle price, the out-the-door price generally includes purchase tax, vehicle and vessel usage tax, car insurance fees, and licensing fees. If the car is purchased with a loan, the out-the-door price also includes additional costs such as dealership handling fees, GPS fees, and auto loan interest. Precautions for purchasing a new car are: 1. Check the vehicle's exterior for any scratches; 2. Verify that all functional equipment operates normally, mainly listening for any abnormal engine noises and ensuring the dashboard displays accurately; 3.

Is the Prado Rear-Wheel Drive or Front-Wheel Drive?

The Prado is rear-wheel drive. Disadvantages of front-wheel drive vehicles: The main drawback is that since key components like the engine and drivetrain are concentrated in the front of the vehicle, the rear end is lighter, making the rear wheels prone to losing traction and resulting in poorer handling. Additionally, front-wheel drive vehicles inherently suffer from understeer issues. Moreover, the front axle serves as both the steering axle and the drive axle, leading to complex structures and manufacturing processes, higher production costs, and more difficult maintenance. Disadvantages of rear-wheel drive vehicles: Rear-wheel drive also has notable drawbacks. The engine power must travel a relatively long distance from the driveshaft to the rear axle to drive the rear wheels, inevitably losing some power in the process. Furthermore, components like the driveshaft and rear axle occupy more interior space, often causing issues such as a raised floor in the middle of the cabin.
