Car parts between the door and the body may require lubrication over time. Here is relevant information: 1. The car door and body are connected by hinges, similar to a household door. It is normal for hinges to make noise after prolonged use. To ensure the smooth and silent operation of the hinges, it is recommended to apply lubricant every 2-3 months for maintenance. Additionally, there is another component connecting the door and the body, known as the door limiter. As the name suggests, it is used to restrict the degree to which the door can open—first, to limit the maximum opening angle, and second, to maintain a certain opening angle. 2. If the car has been in use for some time, it is advisable to check whether the door seal has aged. Since the seal is made of rubber, it will gradually deteriorate and wear out over time, leading to noticeable wind noise and friction sounds for passengers. If the seal is aged or damaged, it is recommended to replace it directly. Also, regularly clean the dust and rainwater from the gaps in the seal during daily use to prevent aging.

Does the Clutch Control Speed?

The clutch can control speed. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Half-clutch: When starting a manual transmission car, you need to press the clutch first, engage first gear, and use the half-clutch state to start the car. When the car begins to move, you can lightly press the accelerator and then shift up. Pressing the accelerator will increase the speed. Pressing the clutch when starting the car controls a slow start, ensuring higher safety. 2. Emergency situations: When driving a manual transmission car, you must brake promptly in emergencies. Braking requires pressing the clutch to assist in slowing down the car. In emergencies, you should first tap the brake to reduce speed, then press the clutch. Pressing the clutch not only slows the car down but also prevents stalling due to sudden braking.

Is It Normal for the Clutch to Make a Thud Sound When Released Quickly?

It is normal for the clutch to make a thud sound when released quickly. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Impact Sound: When the clutch is lifted too quickly, the release bearing returns too fast, causing an impact sound. It is recommended to depress the clutch quickly but release it slowly while driving to avoid this noise. If the driver continues to press the clutch pedal after shifting gears and maintains this habit for a long time, it can damage the clutch and cause wear on the clutch plate. 2. Other Causes of Abnormal Noise: A sharp screeching sound heard just before the clutch engages, which disappears when the pedal is pressed and reappears when released, is caused by a broken driven plate steel sheet or exposed rivet heads scraping against the pressure plate or flywheel. In such cases, repairs are necessary.

What are the methods for cargo transport drivers to conduct loading inspections?

Before transportation, ensure the loading meets requirements; check the safety condition of the cargo during transit; inspect during every rest stop; and continuously monitor the loading status via rearview mirrors while driving. There are two key inspection items for freight vehicles: 1. Tires: Since the primary function of trucks is cargo transportation, tire safety is crucial. Inspect for any tire scratches and check between the dual rear wheels for trapped stones. Use a hammer or pry bar to tap the tires—normal tire pressure produces a relatively crisp sound, while underinflated tires emit a dull thud, making it easy to identify. 2. Three Leaks: When parked, inspect the vehicle underside for water or oil leaks. Observe the engine, transmission, and rear axle for any dripping phenomena, which can help detect potential hazards in advance.

Should You Drive Fast or Slow Through Water on the Road?

You should drive slowly. Here are the reasons for driving slowly: 1. Safety is crucial when driving on slippery surfaces. 2. Avoid splashing water onto pedestrians. 3. Apply brakes gently to prevent sudden stops, as driving too fast can cause water to enter the engine. Additional information: 1. Drive slowly through water to prevent tire slippage, but when crossing a water puddle, press the accelerator fully to pass quickly, ensuring the exhaust pipe has enough pressure to prevent water from flowing back. 2. Cars submerged in water may develop various malfunctions if not inspected and repaired promptly. 3. It is best to replace water-soaked items inside the car as soon as possible to prevent odors and bacterial growth.
