Diesel vehicles can continue to run without urea, but it is necessary to replenish it as soon as possible. If a diesel vehicle operates without urea, its nitrogen oxide emissions will be even worse than those of a National III standard vehicle. Prolonged operation without urea can easily lead to crystallization, clogging, or high-temperature damage in the urea pump nozzle, pipelines, and urea pump, all of which are expensive to repair. Below is additional information: Function of automotive urea: The most basic function of automotive urea solution is to convert nitrogen oxides in vehicle exhaust into harmless nitrogen and water, saving energy and protecting the environment, thereby helping the vehicle meet national exhaust emission standards. Precautions: Automotive urea must use ultra-pure water of electronic grade. Since the SCR catalyst carrier is highly susceptible to metal ion poisoning, which can render it ineffective, automotive urea solution must use ultra-pure water of electronic grade.

How to reset the tire pressure warning light on BYD Qin Pro?

Drive slowly and park in a safe place, turn off the engine, wait for 1-2 minutes, then restart the vehicle. Wait for the vehicle to stabilize and check the tire pressure value on the dashboard. Insufficient or excessive tire pressure may cause the tire pressure light to illuminate. Drive the car to an auto repair shop to adjust the tire pressure. If you have a self-equipped inflation device, you can adjust it on the spot. During the process of inflating or deflating the tire pressure, observe the status of the tire pressure light on your vehicle's dashboard. Stop inflating when the tire pressure light turns off. If the tire pressure light does not turn off after adjustment, it means you need to manually reset it. You can find the settings button on the car's central control dashboard to perform a tire pressure reset.

What is the fuel consumption of the Honda UR-V?

The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Honda UR-V is 7.2-8.7L/100km. Currently, there are 5 models of the Honda UR-V on sale. The two-wheel-drive Zhiyue version and the two-wheel-drive Zhiya version have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 7.2L/100km. The two-wheel-drive Zunya version has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 8.3L/100km. The four-wheel-drive Zunyao version and the four-wheel-drive Zunxiang version have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 8.7L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than these values, ranging from 7.8-11.0L/100km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean greater power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Cars with greater weight also have higher fuel consumption because more torque is needed to drive them. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline to combust, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine control unit may command higher RPMs to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption.

How to Fix Wrinkles on Car Windshield Film?

If the bubbles are small, you can first puncture them with a needle and then smooth them out with a cotton cloth. For slightly larger bubbles, you can make a small cut on the bubble with a utility knife and then use a card like a bank card to flatten it, thus solving the problem of wrinkled film. Use a heat gun to warm the adhesive on the film. Heating it can significantly reduce the adhesive's viscosity, allowing you to wipe it clean with a soft and clean cloth. Applying the film requires skill and scientific methods. If the quality of the film is poor, it may not only threaten the health of the occupants but also potentially compromise driving safety.
