Use the method of continuous braking while driving to remove rust; the rust can be worn away through multiple braking actions. In such cases, professional treatment is necessary. You need to take the car to a repair shop to have the brake discs removed, polished, and the rust thoroughly cleaned.

What causes an automatic transmission to maintain high RPM without shifting up?

Automatic transmission maintaining high RPM without shifting up is likely due to an issue with the vehicle's transmission control module (TCM). You can have a technician adjust the computer at a repair shop or replace the transmission sensor yourself. Below are relevant details: 1. Normally, for a new automatic transmission car, the RPM should stay below 4000. Over time, as the engine and gears experience fatigue, the transmission's response may slow down. If the engine control unit (ECU) hasn't been reprogrammed, the normal RPM range should remain between 3500-4000. 2. Additionally, it depends on the transmission structure and current driving speed. Typically, knowing the car model, transmission structure, and engine displacement is necessary to assess the transmission's efficiency ratio. However, under normal urban road driving conditions, most vehicles operate between 3500-4000 RPM.

How to Eliminate Unwanted Beeping Sounds from ETC?

If the beeping occurs while driving on the highway, this is a normal phenomenon as it records the mileage. If the beeping happens during regular times, it may be due to improper activation. The sound should stop after correct activation. Here are some precautions for using ETC: 1. The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To avoid issues caused by the malfunctioning ETC device of the vehicle ahead, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the front vehicle to prevent automatic sensing and payment for the front vehicle. 2. The recognition speed for ETC lanes is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle device information, leading to unsuccessful toll deduction. 3. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

What are the reasons why a Mondeo won't start?

Mondeo won't start for the following reasons: 1. Check if the battery voltage is too low: You can turn on the headlights and some electrical devices to observe whether there is any noticeable dimming of the dashboard and interior lighting during the starting process. If dimming is confirmed, it indicates insufficient battery voltage. 2. Excessive carbon buildup in the intake manifold: Excessive carbon deposits on components like the throttle body and idle control valve can prevent the engine from achieving the required air-fuel mixture ratio, resulting in the vehicle's inability to start. The repeated engagement of the solenoid and starter relay may produce a clicking sound. 3. Insufficient fuel supply in the fuel system: This issue is similar to excessive carbon buildup in the intake manifold, as it also prevents the engine from achieving the necessary air-fuel mixture ratio, leading to the vehicle's failure to start.

How many liters of fuel can a Caterpillar 320 fuel tank hold?

Caterpillar 320 fuel tank can hold 410L of fuel. The following is a related introduction about fuel tanks:1. General classification: Fuel tanks can be divided into two types: open fuel tanks and closed fuel tanks. Open fuel tanks have the liquid surface in the tank connected to the atmosphere, and an air filter is installed on the fuel tank cover. Open fuel tanks have a simple structure and are easy to install and maintain, making them commonly used in hydraulic systems. Closed fuel tanks are generally used for pressurized fuel tanks, filled with a certain pressure of inert gas, with a charging pressure of up to 0.05MPa.2. Classification by shape: Fuel tanks can also be divided into rectangular fuel tanks and cylindrical fuel tanks. Rectangular fuel tanks are easy to manufacture and convenient for placing hydraulic components, so they are widely used; cylindrical fuel tanks have high strength, light weight, and are easy to clean, but they are more difficult to manufacture and take up more space, often used in large metallurgical equipment.
