Ecco-Grease-EM71-2 special grease for plastic and rubber. Below are the relevant details: 1. Introduction to brake caliper and guide pin lubricant: Ecco-Grease-EM71-2 special grease for plastic and rubber is a lubricating grease made from polyether synthetic oil as the base oil, special lithium soap as the thickener, and refined with various additives such as antioxidants, anti-corrosion agents, and anti-aging agents. This plastic and rubber compatible grease is designed for the assembly lubrication of rubber, plastic, and metal components that are sensitive to most greases, such as ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, and natural rubber. It features excellent adhesion, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. 2. Brake caliper: An essential component of the chassis braking system, its main function is to push the brake pads, which then rub against the brake drum to reduce speed and bring the vehicle to a stop. When the brake pedal is pressed, the master cylinder generates thrust to push hydraulic oil to the caliper, and the piston inside the caliper moves under hydraulic pressure to push the brake pads.

What is the problem with insufficient engine coolant?

Engine coolant deficiency may occur due to the following reasons: 1. Leakage or evaporation caused by poor sealing. 2. When the water temperature rises, the steam inside the water channel pushes the coolant out of the reservoir. 3. Poor performance of the water pump or thermostat can lead to high water temperature in the circulation system, causing excessive pressure in the radiator and cooling system, which results in coolant flowing out from the reservoir. Precautions for using coolant are as follows: 1. Mixing coolant with water can damage the engine. 2. Avoid mixing different types of coolant together. 3. Remember to check the coolant regularly. Below is some relevant information about coolant: The main function of coolant is to cool the engine, and it also has other functions such as preventing rust. It is mainly composed of a mixture of water, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and other compounds, with specific boiling and freezing points. Particularly important is the freezing point of the coolant, which is usually below minus forty degrees Celsius.

How to Determine if a Car Bearing is Faulty?

How to identify wheel bearing damage: 1. Roll down the window and listen to determine if the noise originates outside the vehicle. 2. Increase the vehicle speed (when the humming sound is more pronounced), then shift to neutral and let the car coast, observing whether the noise comes from the engine. If the humming sound remains unchanged while coasting in neutral, it's likely a wheel bearing issue. 3. Make a temporary stop, exit the vehicle, and check if the axle temperature is normal by touching each of the four wheel hubs to roughly gauge if their temperatures are consistent (under normal brake shoe/pad clearance conditions, there's a temperature difference between front and rear wheels, with the front wheels being slightly hotter). If the temperature difference seems negligible, proceed slowly to a repair shop. 4. Lift the car using a lift (after releasing the handbrake and shifting to neutral). In the absence of a lift, use a jack to raise each wheel individually, then manually rotate all four wheels quickly. A faulty axle will produce distinctly different sounds compared to others, making this method highly effective for pinpointing the problematic axle.

What is the fuel consumption of the Verano?

The fuel consumption of the Verano is 5.2-6.3L/100km. The currently available Verano models include the 2022 Pro GS Jifeng Edition, 533T Lequ Edition, 532T Lexing Edition, 533T Lexiang Edition, and GS Zhuifeng Edition, totaling five variants. The official NEDC combined fuel consumption is slightly lower than the real-world consumption, ranging from 5.2-6.3L/100km. In the same class, the Sagitar's NEDC combined fuel consumption is 5.3-5.6L/100km, the Civic's is 5.0-6.4L/100km, the Excelle's is 5.3-5.9L/100km, the Corolla's is 5.3-5.9L/100km, and the Binrui's is 5.9-6.1L/100km. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Details are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before red lights increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Vehicles with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically mean higher power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also have higher fuel consumption due to the greater driving torque needed. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, the engine control unit may command higher idle speeds to warm up the engine in cold temperatures, further increasing fuel consumption.

What is the difference between a nearly new car and a brand new car?

The differences between a brand new car and a nearly new car are as follows: 1. Condition: A brand new car is completely unused; a nearly new car refers to vehicles that have been used for a short period and are now on the market for resale. 2. Mileage: A brand new car typically has around 30 kilometers on the odometer; a nearly new car has relatively low mileage. Methods for selecting a nearly new car: 1. Verify the identity: When purchasing, carefully check the owner's ID, original vehicle invoice, purchase tax certificate, vehicle license, road maintenance fee certificate, annual inspection certificate, and insurance policy to ensure everything is in order. 2. Inspect repainting: Look for any peeling paint, new marks on the surface, or excess paint around the exhaust pipe, trim, and windows, as these may indicate the car has been repainted. 3. Check welding points: Ensure the seams between doors, front, rear, and body are smooth. Uneven gaps, bent lines, or missing trim pieces may indicate the car was involved in an accident. 4. Examine the interior: Check for abnormal rust or corrosion on seats, carpets, and interior panels. Verify that all configurations are complete and functioning properly.
