What's the reason for hard brakes that don't stop the car?

1 Answers

There are many factors that can cause hard brakes that don't stop the car: worn brake pads, air in the brake fluid, deteriorated brake fluid, brake fluid pipe leakage, stuck brake calipers not returning to position, worn master cylinder cup and leaking joints, or malfunctioning ABS pump. Since hydraulic brakes are used, when the engine is turned off, the hydraulic pump that drives the hydraulic brakes stops working, causing a sharp increase in brake damping, which is reflected on the pedal as it becomes very heavy and hard. The following are the standards for replacing brake pads: 1. Thickness: The normal thickness of brake pads is about 10mm, and they should be replaced if it is below 6mm. 2. Sound: If the car frequently makes abnormal noises when braking, it indicates that the brake pads are severely worn and should be replaced. 3. Pedal feel: When the brake pads are severely worn, their braking force decreases, so when you step on the brake, it will show symptoms of weakness, and the brake pads should be replaced promptly.

What Causes the Door Squeaking in the New Sagitar in Cold Weather?

The door squeaking in the new Sagitar in cold weather can be attributed to the following 4 reasons. 1. The internal wiring harness hitting the door panel causes noise. 2. The door seal strip produces noise. 3. The door itself generates noise. 4. The door limiter causes noise. Below are the solutions for the door squeaking in the new Sagitar in cold weather: 1. Remove the door interior panel and re-secure the internal wiring harness, or place a small piece of sponge inside to stick the wiring harness to the door panel, so the harness will hit the sponge instead, eliminating the noise. 2. If the noise is caused by the door seal strip, it is usually due to aging of the seal strip. In this case, replacing the seal strip can resolve the noise issue.

What to do if the Passat cigarette lighter doesn't pop up after being pressed?

The Passat cigarette lighter that doesn't pop up after being pressed may require replacing the cigarette lighter retaining spring or the cigarette lighter fuse. The cigarette lighter is located below the center console, and you can see it by opening the cover. The current of the cigarette lighter fuse is 20A, and a blown fuse will result in the cigarette lighter losing power. The cigarette lighter automatically heats up after being pressed, and it will pop out automatically after 5 to 8 seconds when the heating is complete, at which point it can be used to light a cigarette. The steps for removing and installing the cigarette lighter are as follows: 1. Unscrew the shell: Some car cigarette lighter sockets have a screwed-on shell at the back, which can be unscrewed by turning it counterclockwise and then screwed back on by turning it clockwise. 2. Remove screws: Some car cigarette lighter sockets are fixed with screws at the back, and you can remove them by using a wrench to unscrew them, then screw them back on to reinstall. 3. Remove the panel: Remove the gear shift lever panel, which is held by plastic clips. You can pry one side up by hand or with a flathead screwdriver to remove the entire panel. 4. Remove panel screws: After removing the gear shift lever panel, the cigarette lighter panel door will automatically open, revealing two black screws that can be removed using an M4 hex wrench. 5. Remove the panel box: Pull the cigarette lighter plastic panel box out by hand. When it is pulled out about 10 cm, disconnect the connecting wires first, and only then can the entire box be pulled out. 6. Operate the inner and outer rings: The cigarette lighter consists of an outer ring and an inner ring. Press the inner ring in when using it, and it will automatically pop back to its original position when it reaches a certain temperature. At this point, you can pull it out by holding the outer ring. 7. Finally, replace the cigarette lighter.
