The main reasons for air entering the brake pump are: the brake fluid contains too much water, which can easily generate air in the fluid. Air enters the brake system during brake pump maintenance. Hazards of air in the brake pump: Air in the brake pump has a significant impact on the vehicle's braking system. Since air is compressible, if the air is not expelled from the brake system, it will not function properly for braking. Solutions for air in the brake system: Pump the brake pedal several times to build sufficient hydraulic pressure in the system, then loosen the bleeder screw on the wheel cylinder (located at the top of the brake disc). At this point, brake fluid will flow out from the bleeder screw. Do not release the brake pedal until the bleeder screw is tightened. After tightening the bleeder screw, release the brake pedal and repeat the process to pressurize the system.

I've driven quite a few cars, and the persistent air in the Baojun 730's brakes is indeed a headache. This issue is likely related to the braking system. If the brake fluid is insufficient or leaking, it's easy for air bubbles to mix in, causing the brake pedal to feel soft, as if stepping on cotton. The cause often lies in minor leaks in the master cylinder, wheel cylinder, or brake lines, with aging seals being the most common culprit. Failing to fully bleed the system after replacing the brake fluid can also leave residual air. If not fixed properly the first time, the problem tends to recur. A friend of mine had the same issue and frequently needed to pump the brakes to bleed the air or top up the brake fluid. I recommend going to a repair shop immediately for a check-up. Use professional tools to bleed the air, and replace any worn parts if necessary. Otherwise, prolonged poor braking performance can be very dangerous, especially at high speeds. Addressing it promptly will give you peace of mind. This fault is quite common, especially in older cars or those not maintained regularly.

How is three years of driving experience calculated?

The driver's license will have the issuance date of the license. Adding three years to that date will give you the required period, which must be greater than or equal to three years. For example, if the date on the license is January 1, 2018, by January 2, 2021, the driving experience will be more than three years. Here is some additional information: 1. Legal basis: According to Article 64, Paragraph 1 of "Order No. 123", the first 12 months after a motor vehicle driver initially applies for a driver's license or adds a permitted driving type is the probationary period (i.e., the 12 months from the "initial license date" on the original driver's license). 2. Definition of driving experience: Driving experience refers to the number of years a motor vehicle driver has held a driving qualification, calculated from the date the driver obtained the qualification. If a motor vehicle driver obtains different driving qualifications by adding permitted driving types (additional driving), each qualification has its own separate driving experience and should not be confused.

Why is the Mercedes Parking Assist System Not Working?

Mercedes Parking Assist System may stop working due to the following reasons: use of a temporary spare tire; damaged sensors or bumper; sensors being blocked by components installed on the vehicle, such as bumper covers; the vehicle being used to transport loads exceeding its capacity. More details are as follows: 1. Parking Assist System: This system includes ultrasonic sensors embedded in the front and rear bumpers, with each sensor having a diameter of approximately 15mm. The ultrasonic signals emitted by the sensors reflect when they encounter obstacles. Upon receiving the reflected signals, the sensors promptly feed them back to the system for distance calculation. The system then alerts the driver about the distance to obstacles outside the visible range through sound or video. 2. Verifying the Fault After Receiving the Vehicle: When shifting the transmission into R (Reverse) gear, it was observed that the red indicator light on the Parking Assist System (PTS) button illuminated, and neither the front nor rear parking warning indicators responded, indicating that the parking assist system was in a disabled state.

What Causes the Car Starter Motor to Not Respond?

Here are the specific reasons why a car starter motor may not respond: 1. Severe wear of starter carbon brushes: The symptom during startup is weak cranking, where the crankshaft rotation is visibly slow through the belt and pulley. When the wear is extremely severe, the starter cannot rotate the crankshaft at all, producing only an electric current sound. 2. Fault in the starter control mechanism: Apart from the starter motor, the starter assembly includes an electromagnetic control mechanism. When this mechanism fails, the pinion gear cannot engage with the flywheel gear, preventing engine startup. The symptom is turning the ignition key and hearing only the high-speed rotation sound of the starter without the sound of the engine crankshaft flywheel operating. 3. Damage to the starter clutch: Typically, the starter operates at around 120r/min, while the engine idles at approximately 900r/min after starting. The clutch prevents the engine from driving the starter if the driver fails to release the key promptly after startup, keeping the pinion and flywheel gears engaged, which could lead to starter burnout.

Is a Wading Vehicle Considered a Flood-Damaged Car?

Wading vehicles are not considered flood-damaged cars. Flood-damaged cars generally refer to vehicles that have been soaked in water, typically where the wiring harness has been submerged, the water depth exceeds one-third of the wheel height, and the bottom components of the vehicle have been in prolonged contact with water. Below is additional information: 1. Flood-damaged cars: There is no strict definition for flood-damaged cars, but generally, if key components like the engine have accumulated water and internal parts are damaged, it can be considered a flood-damaged car. 2. Wading vehicles: Wading refers to driving through low-lying, waterlogged roads, typically during rainy weather when poor drainage leads to water accumulation in low-lying areas.

Does driving with the VVT valve disconnected consume more fuel?

Driving with the VVT valve disconnected consumes more fuel. Definition of the VVT valve: It refers to the Variable Valve Timing system, a technology used in automotive piston engines. The Variable Valve Timing system (OCV/VCT) consists of an electromagnetic valve (OCV) and a Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) adjuster. By adjusting the camshaft phase of the engine, the intake volume can change with the engine speed, achieving optimal combustion efficiency and improving fuel economy. Working principle of the VVT valve: The crankshaft drives the camshaft through a timing belt, gears, or chain. The profile and position of the cam lobes on the camshaft are typically optimized for specific engine speeds, which usually reduces torque at low speeds and power at high speeds.
