A system for controlling the temperature of an engine, which includes at least one cylinder. The system includes a turbocharger and at least one air-nozzle. The turbocharger includes exhaust-gas-inlet-port, an exhaust-gas-outlet-port, an air-inlet-port, a compressed-air-outlet-port, a turbine and a compressor. The exhaust-gas-inlet-port is coupled with the exhaust-gas-outlet of the engine. Exhaust gas from the engine rotates the turbine, which rotates the compressor. The compressor draws air from the air inlet port, compresses the air thereby increasing the pressure thereof, and provides the compressed air to the compressed-air-outlet-port. An inlet of the air-nozzle or nozzles is coupled with the compressed-air-outlet-port. The air-nozzle or nozzles are directed toward a respective one of the at least one cylinder, and directs a flow of air toward the respective one of the at least one cylinder.

A multi-disc brake is provided. The brake can include a radial wear pin cartridge for wear indication. The brake can include an integrated water jacket for cooling.

A ventilated brake rotor rotationally associated with a vehicle element to be braked, having a rotation axis and defining an axial direction, parallel to or coinciding with the rotation axis, a radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction and a circumferential direction, perpendicular to both the axial and radial directions, has a cup-shaped body having at least one ventilation opening passing through a cup-shaped body thickness to allow passage of a cooling fluid for cooling the ventilated brake rotor, at least one front annular portion for connecting the ventilated brake rotor to the vehicle element to be braked, and a side portion extending from the at least one front annular portion at least in the axial direction. A protective element shields the at least one ventilation opening preventing foreign bodies from entering into the cup-shaped body and allowing the cooling fluid to cross the at least one ventilation opening.

Vehicle wheel attachments that are installed and removed easily and are capable of being individually removed and adjusted. These vehicle wheel attachments direct airflow out of the interior of the wheel well.

A wheel casing for a vehicle having a wheel assembly including a wheel and a tire. The wheel casing includes a body portion positionable adjacent an inboard surface of the tire, and a brake cooling duct defining an air inlet opening and an air outlet opening. The air outlet opening is in fluid communication with a brake system component and the air inlet opening is positionable inboard of the body portion when the body portion is positioned adjacent the inboard surface of the tire, thereby providing cooling air flow through the brake cooling duct to the brake system component when the vehicle is in forward motion. The wheel casing further includes a suspension arm undercover extending inboard of the body portion and configured to protect predetermined components of the vehicle.

A wheel carrier assembly for a front axle or rear axle of a motor vehicle, with a wheel carrier part on which a link for a control arm assembly, a fixing device for a damper strut and a recess for a wheel bearing are provided. The wheel carrier part includes an air guide device for supplying air to a disk brake assembly, which as brake parts has at least a brake disk and a brake caliper. The wheel carrier part has a circumferentially hollow wheel carrier housing part. The air guide device includes at least one air inlet opening and at least one air outlet opening directed onto a brake part.
