Because the front wheel brake calipers are significantly larger than the rear wheel brake calipers. Below is a related introduction to brake calipers: Introduction: The brake caliper is the component that clamps the brake pads to achieve braking when the brake pedal is pressed. The more pistons a car caliper has, the greater, more stable, and smoother the braking force. Function: The caliper primarily uses pistons to clamp the brake disc with the brake pads. Most standard vehicles use single-piston calipers, while sports sedans/performance cars upgrade to dual-piston calipers for better braking performance. Calipers with four or more pistons are commonly referred to as "Big Brake Kits" (BBK), with typical examples being the Evolution and WRX STI models. The main internal components of a caliper can be divided into the piston, piston seal, and dust boot.

Can Motorcycles Be Wrapped to Change Color?

Color change is permitted. As motorcycles are classified as motor vehicles, altering their color requires applying for a modification of the vehicle body color. According to Article 56 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law," the following documents must be submitted: the original "Motor Vehicle Modification Registration Application Form," original and photocopies of the identity proofs of the vehicle owner and agent, the original motor vehicle registration certificate, and the original motor vehicle license. According to Article 6 of Chapter 2 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law," if the color change area of a motor vehicle does not exceed 30%, no modification registration is required. Conversely, if it exceeds 30%, it must be filed and registered within 10 days after the color change. Precautions for vehicle color change: Before changing the color of a motor vehicle, it is necessary to consult the local vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered to confirm whether the region permits color changes via wrapping. If the region does not support this method, the modification cannot be filed, and the wrap must be completely removed to restore the vehicle's original color. Additionally, according to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," owners are no longer required to apply in advance to the vehicle management office. They can first change the vehicle color, install body kits, replace the engine, etc., and then apply for modification registration. According to Article 10, registered motor vehicles must apply for modification registration under the following circumstances: Change of body color. Replacement of the engine. Replacement of the body or frame. Replacement of the entire vehicle due to quality issues. Change from commercial to non-commercial use or vice versa. Change of the vehicle owner's residence in or out of the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Furthermore, according to Article 15 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles must be painted with designated patterns and equipped with alarms and signal lights as required. Other motor vehicles are prohibited from using similar patterns, alarms, or signal lights. According to Article 56 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," failure to register a color change as required will result in a warning or fine from the traffic management department of the public security authority. The vehicle may also be impounded and required to revert to its original color.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Fengxing Lingzhi?

Currently, there are 8 models of the Dongfeng Fengxing Jingyi X5, among which the 1.5T version has a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters, while other versions have a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters. This data is released by the automobile manufacturer, and owners who have purchased the Dongfeng Fengxing Jingyi X5 can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The fuel grade for the Dongfeng Fengxing Jingyi X5 is 92, with a fuel consumption of 6.7 to 7.4L per 100 kilometers. A full tank of fuel can cover a distance of 672 to 743 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank. Generally, this is observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge on the dashboard usually has 5 to 6 segments. When there are only 2 segments left, it is advisable to refuel to avoid running out of fuel midway. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the automobile manufacturer is the volume from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to ensure that the fuel inside the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the safe space of the tank. If the fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked fuel tank capacity.

Does the Highlander have tire pressure monitoring?

For the 2018 Highlander, all models except the two-wheel-drive Elite and four-wheel-drive Elite (China V emission standard) versions are equipped with tire pressure monitoring. The 2015 Highlander does not have tire pressure monitoring. Tire pressure monitoring automatically checks tire pressure in real-time while driving and alerts the driver to leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. There are two common types: direct and indirect. Below are the details: 1. Direct tire pressure monitoring. Direct tire pressure monitoring systems use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. The pressure data is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the pressure readings for each tire. The system automatically alerts the driver if tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. 2. Indirect tire pressure monitoring. The working principle of indirect tire pressure monitoring is: when a tire's pressure decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, making it rotate faster than the other wheels. By comparing the rotational speed differences between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure warning systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of tires to monitor pressure.

What Are the Hidden Functions of the Toyota RAV4 Remote Key?

Toyota RAV4 remote key hidden functions: 1. When the vehicle is locked, pressing the horn symbol on the remote key can trigger the vehicle alarm, which is very convenient for locating the car. 2. After locking the car and leaving, the key can be used to close all windows with one button; open all vehicle windows with one button; and open the vehicle's trunk. Introduction to the remote key is as follows: 1. The owner does not need to insert the key into the lock to remotely open and lock the doors. Its greatest advantage is: regardless of day or night, without needing to locate the lock hole, the owner can remotely and conveniently unlock (open doors) and lock (lock doors). 2. The basic principle of the remote is: a weak radio wave is emitted from the owner's vicinity, received by the car's antenna, the signal code is identified by the electronic control unit (ECU), and then the system's actuator (motor or electromagnetic coil) executes the action of unlocking/locking.
