Audi transmission with water ingress should not be driven. Regularly change automatic transmission fluid: Ensures smooth and seamless gear shifting, improves handling performance, provides excellent oxidation resistance, reduces component corrosion, and offers superior protection for gear assemblies with its extreme pressure additives. Hazards of not changing regularly: Chemical degradation of automatic transmission fluid leads to impurity formation, causing oil passage blockage and affecting gear shifting functionality. Prolonged high-temperature operation reduces the lubricating properties of the fluid, increasing wear on clutch plates and potentially causing "stall" phenomena. Extended use also diminishes the antioxidant effectiveness of the fluid, raising the risk of component corrosion.

How Many Digits Does an Engine Number Generally Have?

Common engine numbers typically range between 7 to 8 digits. The sequence and content of engine numbers vary among different manufacturers. Generally, they include the engine model, production date, and a randomly assigned serial number given when the engine comes off the production line. Some may also include a production location code. Engine models are identification codes assigned by engine manufacturers in accordance with relevant regulations, corporate or industry practices, and engine attributes. These codes represent information such as the manufacturer, specifications, performance, features, technology, purpose, and production batch of the engine, including fuel type, number of cylinders, displacement, and static braking power. Engines installed in passenger cars or multi-purpose vehicles are required to display the professional manufacturer, model, and production number. It is important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer's product line, and multiple engines can share the same model. The engine number, however, refers to the production serial number, which is unique to each individual engine. Structure of a Vehicle Engine Number: Front Section: Includes product series codes, generation symbols, and regional or corporate codes. Manufacturers may choose appropriate letters as needed, but these must be approved and recorded by the industry standardization body. Middle Section: Consists of symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter. Rear Section: Comprises symbols for structural features and usage characteristics. End Section: Distinguishing symbols. When differentiation is required due to improvements or other reasons within the same product series, manufacturers may select appropriate symbols. The rear and end sections may be separated by a hyphen (-).

Can Automatic Transmission Cars Stall?

Automatic transmission cars can also stall. Here are the reasons for automatic transmission stalling: 1. Using inferior fuel: Some gas stations sell impure fuel for excessive profits. Prolonged use of low-quality fuel can lead to excessive carbon deposits in the engine, making the car prone to stalling; 2. Clogged fuel lines: Blocked fuel lines are another major cause of stalling, often due to poor fuel quality containing excessive gum deposits that obstruct fuel flow; 3. Insufficient driving skills: Inadequate driving proficiency is another significant factor causing stalling, though this typically applies to novice drivers.
