Having driven for over a decade, the sounds of my car have become a daily companion. When starting the engine, there's a gentle hum that gradually grows louder, as if it's waking up. On the road, the engine sound turns into a steady roar after accelerating, especially on highways with the constant whoosh of wind and tire noise. In city traffic, the occasional beep of the horn is common, reminding the car ahead to move. The reversing radar beeps to warn of obstacles behind, and the occasional squeak when braking means the brake pads need replacing. These sounds aren't just operational feedback—they also help me detect issues while driving, like engine vibrations or excessive fan noise, signaling the need for timely maintenance. After all, ignoring these sounds could lead to bigger problems. Safety always comes first.

Is a tire temperature of 55 degrees normal in summer?

In summer, a tire temperature of 55 degrees Celsius is normal. Tires are equipped with insulation sleeves that generally keep the temperature within a controllable range. During hot weather, road surface temperatures often exceed 70°C. For vehicles driven extensively in hot summer conditions, tires that are damaged or have weak spots are highly susceptible to blowouts due to excessive tire pressure. Below are methods to prevent tire blowouts: Maintain normal tire pressure: Manufacturers specify standard tire pressure values—it should neither be too high nor too low. Excessive pressure increases the risk of blowouts, while insufficient pressure can also lead to blowouts as tire temperature rises. Use tires of the same model and tread pattern: It is particularly important to avoid using different tire models for the front and rear wheels. Regularly inspect tires: Avoid using repaired tires as front tires. Replace tires promptly if the tread is punctured by hard objects over 5mm, the sidewall is punctured, the tread depth is less than 1.6mm, or there are cracks or damage at the tire bead.

What are the deduction criteria for hill start?

Introduction to the deduction criteria for hill start is as follows: Hill parking scoring criteria: After parking, if the right side of the vehicle body is more than 30 cm away from the roadside line, 10 points will be deducted; if it is more than 50 cm away, 100 points will be deducted; crossing or touching the line will result in a 100-point deduction; after parking, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and the deviation is within 50 cm, 10 points will be deducted; if the deviation exceeds 50 cm, 100 points will be deducted; if the parking brake is not fully engaged, 10 points will be deducted. Hill start scoring criteria: Failing to complete the start within 30 seconds will result in a 100-point deduction; stalling once during the start will deduct 10 points; if the gear is not in neutral or park when starting the engine, 100 points will be deducted; if the vehicle rolls back less than 30 cm during the start, 10 points will be deducted; if the rollback exceeds 30 cm, 100 points will be deducted.

What Causes the Clicking Sound in the Differential?

Differential clicking sounds are generally caused by low machining precision of the gear teeth or improper meshing. In such cases, it is best for the car owner to have the vehicle inspected and repaired at a 4S shop. Below is relevant information about automotive differentials: Principle: The differential is a device designed to adjust the speed difference between the left and right wheels. In four-wheel drive systems, to power all four wheels, they must be interconnected. If all four wheels are mechanically linked together, the car cannot rotate at the same speed when cornering. To ensure the car's rotational speed remains consistent during curves, a center differential is added to adjust the speed difference between the front and rear wheels. Function: The automotive differential primarily eliminates mechanical interference caused by inconsistent rotational speeds of the left and right wheels during turns. Without a differential, mechanical damage could occur due to the speed discrepancy between the wheels. For example, conventional human-powered tricycles do not have differential devices installed, so they can only use single-side drive when turning.

Is the turn signal lever for manual transmission up-right-down-left?

Manual transmission turn signal lever follows an up-right-down-left pattern. Here are the details: Turn signal switch: In modern cars, the turn signal switch is typically located on the left side of the steering wheel. The operation method can be summarized as "up-right-down-left". Drivers can imagine the turn signal lever as the steering wheel - simply push it in the direction you intend to turn. Turn signal usage: When observing a need to turn ahead while driving, always activate the turn signal about 10 seconds in advance to alert following vehicles to take timely measures such as slowing down or stopping to avoid collisions or rear-end accidents. However, it's also not advisable to activate the turn signal too early, as this might cause visual fatigue for following drivers and potentially trigger "road rage". The timing mainly depends on the driver's judgment.
