Air conditioning hot air or heating. Here is the relevant content introduction: 1. Method: If you want to completely eliminate fog inside the car, you should choose to turn on the air conditioning and select hot air to blow on the windshield. Similarly, first use the external circulation, select the air conditioning hot air and the front windshield outlet, wait for about 5 minutes, then switch to internal circulation or simply turn it off. Of course, if the air conditioning has a heating function, the defogging effect will be faster and better. 2. Principle: Use hot air to dry the water vapor molecules in front of the windshield and circulate them outside the car to prevent them from condensing on the glass and forming water droplets. This method of defogging is relatively slow, but it is the most effective in rainy or snowy weather and the most fundamental solution. When the humidity inside the car decreases and the air becomes dry, it can prevent fog from forming on the windows for a long time. It is also more suitable for cold autumn days, at least making the interior of the car warm and pleasant.

Why Are Second-Hand BYD S7 So Cheap?

BYD S7 was once recalled by the manufacturer due to transmission defects. The recall was prompted by issues such as gear jamming, jerking, stalling, sudden acceleration, and clutch plate overheating leading to odd or even gear failure. However, these problems are relatively common in dual-clutch transmissions. Below is some information about the transmission: Introduction: A device that changes the speed ratio and direction of motion. It is used to alter the torque, speed, and direction of motion transmitted from the driving shaft to the driven shaft under different working conditions. A gear-driven transmission generally consists of a housing and several gear pairs. Function: During driving, to adapt to different working conditions, the vehicle's driving force and speed need to vary within a certain range. Since the existing engine's torque and speed variation range cannot meet this requirement, a transmission is installed.
