I am pleased to report that I have
never been caught driving a car like the one in Uncle Buck,
where the title character leaves a little explosion upon each arrival
he makes. That said, I haven't always driven a noiseless machine. I
have definitely contributed my share of noise pollution to the roads
I frequent simply by driving there. So what commonly heard car sounds
require immediate attention, and which are not so serious? Let's take
a look.
Thumping: is typically the result of a
flat tire. If the flat
occurred while the car was parked, then hopefully you'll notice it
before you take off. Otherwise, you'll immediately feel and hear its
thumping vibrating from the suspension. A flat tire at the front of
your car will tend to drag the car towards the side of a flat. We
really don't advice driving on a flat. It'll wreck your tire in no
time. Without air in the tire, the sidewalls will get pinched between
the road and the wheel rim. Even driving one measly kilometer with a
flat is long enough to damage the tire, and if the tire detaches from
the rim as flats often do, you could really damage your wheel as
well.
Screeching:
screeching with no other sound attached to it shouldn't alarm you if
it's coming from inside your wheels, especially if you notice it more
when you're slowing down, and when the weather exhibits damp
conditions. Your brake pads are simply grating against the discs, but
they still work. Adding new brake pads should do the trick for
eliminating the sound.
Screeching
that ends in a putter – if this sound is coming from under your
hood, as it likely is, you won't want to take off for a road trip
anytime soon. Get it checked out as soon as you can. That sound is
the sign of a faulty belt, faulty tension, or a misaligned pulley.
Puffing – puffing that comes from
under the hood, especially when your car is idle, is serious. It's a
sign that an exhaust manifold is not working as it should, and that
hot exhaust gases are being released into the air. It's illegal to
drive a car in that condition, not to mention ultra dangerous for
you, since it will expose you to carbon monoxide.
If ever you are uncertain, err on the
side of caution and ask somebody—a mechanic, ideally, but a friend
or family member who knows a thing or two about cars (expertise is
not necessary) should be able to offer a helpful opinion as well.
Goodness! Finally I got a blog from where I am equipped for in reality get helpful certainties with respect to my investigation and information.
