When overtaking, engaging S mode allows the vehicle to instantly accelerate and surpass the car ahead. Similarly, when waiting at a traffic light, switching to S mode enables a powerful start, potentially leaving other vehicles behind. Additional Information: 1. S mode is not suitable for prolonged use: Using S mode increases fuel consumption as the engine operates more frequently in the medium to high RPM range, leading to higher fuel usage. Frequent use of S mode can also accelerate engine wear. 2. Precautions: If you often drive in S mode, it's advisable to use high-quality fully synthetic engine oil to protect the engine. Additionally, regular oil changes are essential during routine vehicle maintenance. Over time, the performance of engine oil degrades, so it's important to replace it periodically. Always replace the oil filter along with the oil during each oil change.

What are the symptoms of a faulty steering column?

The symptoms of a faulty steering column are: the vehicle becomes difficult to control, and steering deviations or misalignments occur easily. Whether on bumpy or smooth roads, when the steering angle is relatively large, a "clicking" sound is emitted, which generally indicates damage to the steering ball joint. If a "clanging" sound is heard from the chassis while driving on bumpy roads, it usually means the stabilizer bar ball joint is damaged. The steering column is the component that connects the steering wheel to the steering gear in the steering system. Through the steering column, the driver transmits torque to the steering gear, enabling the steering gear to achieve steering. Common types of steering columns include hydraulic power steering columns, electro-hydraulic power steering columns, and electric power steering columns, each with different systems.

Can You Drive Immediately After Passing the Subject 4 Test?

You cannot drive immediately after passing the Subject 4 test. You must obtain a driver's license before driving.

Do All Four Engine Mounts Need to Be Replaced Together?

Replacing engine mounts does not require all four to be changed at once. Introduction to Engine Mounts: Typically, the main component of an engine mount is rubber. Its function is to create a flexible connection between the engine and the vehicle body, primarily relying on the rubber cushion inside the engine mount to absorb vibrations generated during engine operation. If the engine mount is damaged (deformed, cracked, or unbalanced), causing severe engine vibration, it should be replaced promptly. Some failed engine mounts may not show visible abnormalities and require tools to confirm whether they are damaged. Symptoms of Engine Mount Failure: If the engine mount is severely aged or cracked, you may feel a loose connection between the engine and the vehicle body during acceleration or braking.
