Steering pump pressure exceeds the unloading pressure of the steering system. The following are related introductions: 1. Reasons: The steering tie rod ball joint is aging, the steering gear dust cover is leaking oil, or there is a steering gear failure problem, which may be caused by excessive clearance between the steering gear and the gear, requiring replacement of the steering gear. 2. Solutions: Replace the ball joint of the steering tie rod and perform a four-wheel alignment, reinstall the dust cover or reapply grease. When the plane bearing of the shock absorber makes abnormal noises, some grease can be applied to the plane bearing. If abnormal noises still occur after application, it can only be replaced.

I just encountered this issue a few days ago! My car kept squeaking when turning left, which was really unsettling. I called my old classmate who runs an auto repair shop, and he said it's most likely due to lack of lubrication and wear in the steering tie rod ball joint. He suggested I try turning the steering wheel left and right while stationary to pinpoint the sound location. It turned out the noise was coming from near the left front wheel. The next day, I took it to his shop for inspection, and sure enough, the ball joint's dust cover was torn, allowing dirt and mud to get in and squeeze out all the grease inside. I spent over 400 yuan to replace it with an OEM ball joint, and he also applied new grease to the right side. He reminded me that severe wear in the ball joint can lead to increased steering play, which is especially dangerous at high speeds. Now, every time I wash the car, I make sure to avoid spraying water directly on this area to prevent damaging the dust cover again. It's crucial to address unusual noises early—the steering system is definitely not something to take lightly.

There are many reasons why a car cannot start. If the car's anti-theft system malfunctions, it may be due to abnormal operation of the motor.

How to Make DIY Automotive Body Filler?

Steps for preparing automotive body filler: 1. Purchase a can of polyester putty (also called body filler) as the base material from online stores or auto parts shops, then place an appropriate amount on a mixing board. 2. Add the hardener to the base material at a ratio of 100:2 to 100:3. Alternatively, high-concentration hide glue can be used as the hardener for polyester putty, as long as it can achieve curing. 3. Mix thoroughly until achieving a thick paste consistency before application. Two crucial precautions when preparing automotive body filler: 1. Strictly control the hardener quantity according to the mixing ratio. Otherwise, even with continuous stirring, achieving the desired paste consistency becomes difficult, which will significantly reduce the filler's adhesion and adversely affect subsequent painting processes. 2. The working time of polyester putty is limited (typically 10 minutes), so the mixing speed must be accelerated accordingly.
