Porsche, Trivia

It has been two and a half years since we launched this Porsche blog.I have been writing articles on a daily basis and noticed that the number of articles has exceeded 700.I didn't know I had written that much. I have been getting a lot of access lately to articles I wrote a long time ago and articles I had forgotten I had written, and I was reminded of theOh, that's right, that's right. Porsche was such a car.I often reconfirm with them that they are the best of the best.

So today, I'd like to share with you what I've written in the past about theWhat you need to know about PorscheI would like to reiterate some of the articles that have been echoed in "The

Tire gurgling sound on a cold winter day

First, just about this time of year. About the gurgling and awesome sound coming from my tires when I steer at low speed on a cold winter morning. When I first experienced this "gurgling sound,"

Did I step on something! Did something go wrong with my driving!

I was quite impatient. At the time, I had even less knowledge about cars than I do now.Noise from tires = malfunctionI could only think "I'm sorry," so I asked my husband about it, and he told me that this gurgling sound was not a malfunction.

Porsche has adopted the commonly used with respect to the steering mechanismInstead of "Ackermann Steering Geometry," it uses "Parallel Steering Geometry."Therefore, when steering at low speeds on a cold winter day, a gurgling or crunching sound can often be heard coming from the tires.

Parallel steering geometry is a steering mechanism unique to sports and race cars that is designed to allow smoother turning at medium to high speeds, so the sound of thisProof that Porsche is a sports car.It can also be said to be "a good thing.

My husband, by the way.

I've heard this kind of sound in AMGs too. Also, depending on the tires I have on, this gurgling sound can be reduced.

He said.(For a detailed explanation, see the article below.)

Is there a problem with the Porsche tires making a gurgling sound when steering at low speeds?

Brake squeal

Porsche is aEven a new car may make a "squeaking" sound when the brakes are depressed.In our case, the Panamera did not squeal the brakes, but the Boxster had quite a lot of brake squeal.

On this subject, at the time, I was "aBrakes squeal due to worn parts or something.I thought it was a "no problem" but as far as Porsche is concerned, this squealing of the brakes is not a defect.

In fact, Porsche's official youtube even has a video saying that brake squeal is not a defect.I guess it must be a matter of considerable inquiry and complaint, since the number of inquiries and complaints is only about 1,000.

Porsche brakes are said to be the best in the world.Porsche brake discs are designed to be considerably larger than those of a typical carThe company has been

High-quality brake discs and brake pads are used to ensure that the contact surface with the brake pads is as wide as possible to increase friction so that the vehicle can stop safely at any time and maintain a high level of friction even when the contact temperature is extensive.

The first is the "I" in "I".

And as the friction surface increases, "stick-slip phenomenonThis phenomenon causes a phenomenon known as "noise generation," and the vibrations produced by this phenomenon generate noise that, when resonated with the brake rotors, is heard as a loud squeal like a speaker.

In a typical car, you won't hear squealing brakes, but poThe fact that Ruscha's brakes squeal is proof that Porsche brakes are high quality and high performance.It can also be said to be.(More on this in the article below.)

Is squealing Porsche brakes a defect? No, that's the sign of Porsche brakes.

Unknown Porsche

I myself have only been interested in Porsche for a few years and have only driven a few cars, so I think there is still a lot that I do not know about Porsche. The more I drive, the more I discover new things, and each model has completely different characteristics.

I hope to be able to drive as many Porsches as possible this year and learn more and more about the depth of Porsches and cars.
