The ABS system prevents the wheels from locking up during emergency braking. If the wheels lock up, there is a risk of losing grip between the tire and the road and the driver may lose control of the vehicle. ABS also makes the vehicle controllable during hard braking.

Asymmetric tires combine two different tread types. At first glance, the tread shape of the right and left tires is different, as if the manufacturer had combined the symmetrical and directional tires together. Typically, tires with an asymmetric tread pattern boast the best performance. This is because their construction allows the tread to be split into two completely different parts. The first stiff part for better handling and longer tire life, and the second part aimed at reducing noise and sufficiently draining water from the track.

Slick is the name given to racing tires that have completely smooth tread. The smooth tread allows for a larger contact area between the tire and the road, thus giving the tire more grip.

The brake disc is usually in the form of a plate or disc that is rigidly attached to the wheel hub and rotates with it. During braking, the frictional surface of the brake disc is pressed between the brake pads, thereby producing a braking effect.

Directional tires have a characteristic “V” tread pattern. While this specific tread shape slightly limits the way they can be used, on the other hand it brings a number of advantages.

The fuel filter protects the internal combustion engine against the ingress of dirt, particulate matter and water. Filtration is usually multi-stage. The first filtration occurs before the fuel pump inlet, followed by the main fuel filter and the filter screen before the high-pressure fuel pump or injector.

Symmetric tires are the most common type of tire used on passenger and commercial vehicles. They are characterized by the best price/performance ratio. It also has the advantage of fitting regardless of the direction of wheel rotation.

Most automatic transmission selector positions are no mystery. The letter PRND is familiar even to drivers who may not drive an automatic transmission themselves. But what about the letters “L” or “B”, are you familiar with these shifter positions as well?
