The causes of strange noises when braking include foreign objects on the brake disc surface, lack of lubrication in the vehicle, and oil contamination between the brake pads and brake disc. Foreign objects on the brake disc surface: You can check if there are any foreign objects on the surface of the brake disc causing abnormal wear. If the noise during braking is due to foreign objects on the brake disc surface, remove them. Lack of lubrication in the vehicle: If there is a strange noise near the door when braking, it may indicate that the vehicle lacks lubrication. Oil contamination between the brake pads and brake disc: Check if the wear between the brake pads and brake disc is caused by oil contamination. Cleaning the oil between the brake pads and brake disc to ensure there are no foreign objects can solve the problem.

Where is the high-pressure fuel pump located in the Corolla?

The high-pressure fuel pump in the Corolla is located inside the fuel tank. Here is an introduction to the high-pressure fuel pump: Function: It draws fuel from the fuel tank, pressurizes it, and delivers it to the fuel supply line, working in conjunction with the fuel pressure regulator to establish a certain fuel pressure. Structure: The high-pressure fuel pump consists of an electric motor, a pressure limiter, and a check valve. The electric motor actually operates within the fuel inside the pump housing, but there is no need to worry, as there are no ignition sources inside the housing. The fuel lubricates and cools the motor. A check valve is installed at the fuel outlet, and the pressure limiter is located on the pressure side of the pump housing, featuring a passage leading back to the fuel inlet.
