The temperature is high:
 Solution: After the Cherokee has been used for three or four years, the problem of high water temperature may appear. can start with the method of flushing the cooling louvers of the water tank begins. If the effect is not obvious, then check the water temperature sensor. If there is a problem with the sensor, it will be accompanied by black smoke, high fuel consumption, and power drop. if on If there are no problems with the above two points, you can check whether the electronic fan at the front of the water tank is working normally, and whether the water tank is excessive fouling affects the cooling fluid circulation and heat dissipation.

It is normal for Cherokee owners to depress the clutch pedal and put forward gear, but when reverse gear it is not easy to hang in, and it is accompanied by noise, which is caused by the incomplete separation of the clutch.

Solution: first check whether the clutch master cylinder and sub-cylinder are leaking oil, and whether the clutch friction plate is intact. Like If these parts are normal, you can place gaskets under the feet of the clutch pressure plate. If all the gears were good in the past It is not easy to engage the first gear and reverse gear suddenly, and the shift lever is heavy when the gear is engaged, accompanied by a slight noise. This phenomenon is generally caused by the rupture of the engine bracket pad, and the engine bracket needs to be replaced. this fault itself It cannot be ruled out, and it needs to be repaired at the repair station in time.

Solution: Because the sealing of each part of the new car is relatively tight, the plastic parts between the instrument panel and the instrument panel will rub against each other.
The sound is normal, and the sound will gradually disappear after the vehicle has been running for a period of time. The power steering system makes a "chi chi" air leakage sound after it is fully powered.Solution: When the engine is running, try not to keep the steering wheel in full rudder state, because the hydraulic pressure. The oil pump is forced to work continuously, causing the hydraulic oil to overheat and damage the power steering system; Full steering of the steering wheel will increase the load of the oil pump, generate noise, and reduce the engine idle speed for a short time.
