Can You Still Drive When the Audi TPMS Light Comes On?

Audi TPMS light on indicates that the tire pressure of a certain tire may be too low or the sensor battery is insufficient. If the light comes on while driving, please stay calm, do not panic, immediately reduce the speed and avoid fast steering and sudden braking, then check the tire pressure. The following are the functions of the tire pressure monitoring system: 1. Prevent accidents: The tire pressure monitoring system is a type of active safety equipment. It can issue an alarm in time when there are dangerous signs in the tires, reminding the driver to take corresponding measures, thereby avoiding serious accidents. 2. Extend the service life of tires: With the tire pressure monitoring system, we can keep the tires working within the specified pressure and temperature range at any time, thereby reducing tire damage and extending the service life of tires. Data shows that when driving with insufficient tire pressure, when the tire pressure is 10% lower than the normal value, the tire life will be reduced by 15%. 3. Make driving more economical: When the tire pressure is too low, the contact area between the tire and the ground will increase, thereby increasing friction resistance. When the tire pressure is 30% lower than the standard value, fuel consumption will increase by 10%. 4. Reduce the wear of the suspension system: When the tire pressure is excessive, the shock absorption effect of the tire itself will be reduced, thereby increasing the burden on the vehicle's shock absorption system. Long-term use will cause great damage to the engine chassis and suspension system; if the tire pressure is uneven, it is easy to cause the brakes to deviate, thereby increasing the wear of the suspension system.

How to operate when hearing 'please turn on the headlights'?

Turn the light button on the left side of the steering wheel once to turn on the headlights. The following is a related introduction to car headlights: 1. Concept: Headlights refer to the lighting devices installed on both sides of the front of the car, used for road illumination during nighttime driving. Low beams fall within the category of headlights, and both low beams and high beams are types of headlights. 2. Usage: Headlights must be turned on whenever driving at night. The illumination distance of low beams is approximately 30-40 meters. There are requirements for using low beams: they must be turned on when driving in areas without streetlights at night, during dusk when it is relatively dark or at dawn when light is just appearing, and in weather conditions such as heavy fog, snow, or heavy rain when visibility is poor, even during the day.

Are There Subsidies for Car Replacement with New Vehicles?

There are subsidies for replacing old cars with new ones. According to relevant policies in China, car owners can enjoy certain subsidies when replacing old vehicles with new ones. Below are the relevant details: 1. Self-application: The car owner transfers the old motor vehicle out of the city or sends it to a qualified dismantling factory for scrapping. The car owner then fills out and submits an application for government subsidies and corporate reward funds for the elimination of old motor vehicles online or at designated service points. 2. Review: After the car owner submits the application, the transaction processing platform will review the car owner's information. The transaction platform will complete the review within 3 working days after the vehicle's records are transferred out or canceled, and the review results will be publicly displayed to the car owner. Once approved, the car owner can print the corporate reward voucher through the platform's information system or collect it at the service point.

Does Replacing the Clutch Plate Require Removing the Transmission?

Replacing the clutch plate requires removing the transmission. Below are the symptoms indicating when a car's clutch plate needs replacement: Vehicle Doesn't Stall on Hill Starts: If a manual transmission vehicle doesn't stall or stalls with a delay when starting on a hill after releasing the clutch, it indicates severe wear on the clutch plate, which should be replaced immediately. Slow Engine RPM Drop After Releasing the Throttle: If the engine RPM is raised to around 3000 rpm while stationary and then drops immediately after releasing the throttle, it suggests excessive clutch plate wear causing slippage. At this point, the engine and transmission cannot match properly, so the clutch plate should be replaced promptly.

What Causes Transmission Shaking?

Transmission shaking can be attributed to the following reasons: Excessive Carbon Deposits: When there is too much carbon buildup inside the engine, the deposits absorb some of the fuel during startup, leading to an overly lean air-fuel mixture. Once the carbon deposits become saturated with fuel, the engine begins to operate normally. However, when the mixture is ignited, the fuel absorbed by the deposits is drawn into the cylinders by vacuum suction, resulting in an overly rich mixture. This fluctuation between lean and rich conditions causes the transmission to shake. Dirty Throttle Body or Air Filter: A clogged air filter restricts airflow into the transmission, disrupting the air-fuel ratio and causing insufficient engine power, which manifests as shaking. Similarly, a dirty throttle body may not close properly, leading to an overly lean mixture at idle and reduced engine power, resulting in shaking.

What are the effects of continuing to drive a few kilometers after the engine overheats?

The effects of continuing to drive a few kilometers after overheating: 1. Cause of overheating: The engine overheats because the water temperature in the water jacket is too high, meaning the temperature of the cylinder liner, cylinder wall, and cylinder head is excessively elevated. 2. Impact of continuing to drive: If driving continues under these conditions, the mechanical components will be in an expanded state with minimal clearance between parts. After shutting off the engine, this can cause some soft metals to peel off, and in severe cases, may even lead to cylinder seizure. Additional information: 1. Overheating: Car overheating refers to the situation where the working temperature of the vehicle's power machine (usually a diesel or gasoline engine) exceeds the normal operating temperature range, preventing the machine from functioning properly and potentially causing damage. "Excessive temperature" typically refers to around 85 degrees Celsius, though different models have varying standards. The higher the temperature, the greater the damage to the machine. 2. Measures to handle overheating: Upon discovering that the radiator is overheating, the car should be parked in a shaded area and left idling for one minute. Once the water temperature has dropped and is no longer boiling, use a damp towel as a hand pad to first loosen the radiator cap by one notch to release steam, then wait a moment before fully opening it.

Which One is the Heater Switch in a Car?

Heating only uses the internal heat circulation of the car and does not require the compressor to be activated. To turn on the heater, simply adjust the air conditioning button. Below are some tips for using the car air conditioning: Open the Windows Before Turning on the Air Conditioning: After the car has been exposed to the sun in summer, do not enter the car immediately. Or, after entering the car, instead of rushing to turn on the air conditioning, first lower all the windows or open the doors, then turn on the fan to accelerate air circulation. Close the windows and turn on the air conditioning after a few minutes. This helps release toxic substances and provides better cooling. Avoid Prolonged Low Temperature: While driving, be careful not to set the car air conditioning temperature too low just for the sake of staying cool. Otherwise, the significant temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car can easily cause endocrine imbalance, making people more prone to illness. Additionally, setting the air conditioning temperature too low will also increase fuel consumption, raising the cost of using the car.
