The steering wheel is not straight when the car is moving straight due to the following reasons: 1. Abnormal or uneven tire wear, causing the tire contact surface to tilt, resulting in misalignment or deviation; 2. Uneven tire pressure, causing the car to pull toward the side with lower pressure, leading to directional offset when moving straight; 3. Incorrect four-wheel alignment data, which can also cause the steering wheel to be misaligned during driving; 4. One-sided brake drag on the steering wheel, increasing resistance on one side, requiring directional adjustment to maintain normal driving, leading to misalignment; 5. Deformation of the vehicle's sway bar; 6. Damaged shock absorbers; 7. Steering gear malfunction.

What is the reason for the high water temperature of Wuling Rongguang?

The reason for the high water temperature of Wuling Rongguang is: the antifreeze has not been replaced for a long time, and the surface of the radiator is too dirty. If this happens, it is recommended to clean the dirt on the surface of the radiator and then replace the antifreeze.

What Causes Engine Idle Vibration?

The causes of engine idle vibration include: unstable operation of engine cylinders, excessive carbon deposits in the cylinders, electrical circuit issues, aging of engine mounts, and problems with the ignition system. If the ignition coil malfunctions, it will directly cause abnormal spark plug firing, leading to continuous vehicle vibration. Excessive carbon deposits in the cylinders can also result in unstable idle and vibration. The reasons for excessive carbon deposits in the cylinders include prolonged idling in place and substandard gasoline causing incomplete combustion. Excessive carbon deposits in the cylinders can lead to poor spark plug ignition, causing abnormal engine vibration. Additionally, excessive carbon deposits in the combustion chamber can block the valves, obstructing air intake and resulting in abnormal engine vibration.
