A dash cam is best installed behind the upper center rearview mirror on the front windshield of the vehicle. For the dash cam, this position provides a wider field of view, a larger shooting angle, and broader coverage, without distracting the driver. It is important to ensure that the lens is within the range of the windshield wipers to guarantee clear recording during rainy weather. For rearview mirror dash cams, they can be directly mounted on the original rearview mirror, but make sure they are securely fastened to prevent falling. Precautions for installing a dash cam: 1. Pay attention to the length of the power cord and remember to purchase a memory card; 2. Install it in a reasonable position without obstructing the view; 3. Wrap the power cord around the rearview mirror a few times to prevent it from coming loose; 4. Tuck any excess power cord into the headliner gap.

What causes the Honda CR-V body resonance at 700 RPM?

The reasons for the Honda CR-V body resonance at 700 RPM: incorrect tire dynamic balance parameters, clutch or torque converter failure. Below are the specific explanations for the causes: Incorrect tire dynamic balance parameters: The concept of "dynamic balance" for tires refers to the smooth operation of high-speed rotating wheels, while imbalance can cause wheel wobble during operation. The reason is that with the wheel hub cover as the center, there is a difference in mass (weight) at symmetrical positions on a certain diameter line of the wheel. Clutch or torque converter failure: Clutch slippage causes vibration during cruise driving, but no vibration during deceleration coasting. The clutch friction disc and pressure plate are wear parts, and if severely worn or with design defects, they may cause vibration or jerking during high-speed driving.
