The year, make, model, transmission and engine info would help but it is probably the transmission down shifting if the vehicle is an automatic.
If the vehicle is stopped without using the clutch , the engine will give jerks and turn off if the vehicle is in higher gear and the speed is not according to the range of the gear. Although, if the vehicle is being driven in higher gears and slight brakes are applied, no effect will be there if the vehicle's speed remains in the corresponding range. Example: if you are driving a vehicle at 90km/h in 5th gear and you bring it down to 60km/h by applying brakes without using the clutch, nothing will happen and you can continue driving by accelerating again.
Yes. It is possible.I had instrumentation installed on a MD10-10 airliner and was recording the brake operation and loads during landing. The aircraft landed at the airport in Austin, TX, on the runway that is 12,250 feet length. The runway has some dips and a slight rise on the North end, with a turn-off at the very end. The loaded aircraft landed and rolled the full length of the runway without applying brakes until he had to turn off.
Vibration when applying brakes is most likely warped rotors. Another cause could be loose caliper bolts. The vibration while driving is most likely a tire issue ie (out of balance, broken belt in tire, bent rim). Other possible causes are loose/worn suspension and/or steering parts.
When you're brake pads be calm worn, they will have a slight shimmy when you apply the brakes. When the brake pads are completely worn out they will make a grinding noise.
if your van has rear drum brakes, adjust them up until there is a slight drag on the brakes. this usually does the trick to tighten up the parking brake.
Leading brakes are the primary braking system. ON a car, for example, the front breaks apply more braking force than the rear (trailing) brakes do. There is a slight difference in this pressure so a vehicle does not brake out of control.
No! Something is wrong.
Yes, the word 'slight' is a noun (slight, slights), a verb (slight, slights, slighting, slighted), and an adjective (slight, slighter, slightest).Examples:He responded graciously to the slight without a sign that he had been insulted. (noun)That critic does not like her books, he will slight her work at every opportunity. (verb)The room was beautiful with a slight breeze coming from the balcony. (adjective)
Unless the calipers are frozen- you will have a slight drag as the brake pads maintain contact with the caliper
Increased stopping distances ... a slight high pitch "ringing" when the brakes are applied (this is a metal post that is coming into contact with the rotors). Disk brake pads should last for about 60,000 miles ... drum brake pads, 40,000 ... taking into consideration that the application and use of the brakes is normal and not having to slam on the brakes for each and every stop.
Prone to it - NO. Do these parts, brakes and suspension/steering need maintenance and repair..sure.
You can't. It takes working out. 2nd answer: After a lot of experimenting with animals, scientists found a way to increase muscle mass and strength using electrical connections into the muscle, then applying slight electrical stimulus. But that sort of verifies answer #1, because the muscles are still 'working out', in a sense.
