Convertibles have a roof cover. Roof Classification: The roof of a convertible can be partially or fully retracted through electric and mechanical transmission. There are two types of roofs: hardtop and soft top. When not open, the roof is folded and stored in the trunk. Compared to the soft top, the hardtop offers better performance and stability, is less prone to leaking when closed, and is less likely to be damaged. Convertible: A convertible refers to a car with a foldable and openable roof. Some convertibles are developed as variants of popular car models, such as the Volkswagen Beetle convertible. Most convertibles are two-door models, while four-door versions are relatively rare.

What engine does the Exeed Landmark use?

Exeed Landmark uses a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. Powerful performance: The Xinghe Power 2.0TGDI engine delivers an impressive 254 horsepower, with a maximum power of 187kW and a maximum torque of 390Nm. Its power reserve is comparable to traditional 3.5L V6 large-displacement engines, achieving 0-100km/h acceleration in around 8 seconds. Such robust performance stems from several core technologies. The Xinghe Power 2.0TGDI employs VVT mid-position technology, leveraging its compact structure to optimize spatial layout and shorten oil paths, resulting in a 30% improvement in engine response speed. Low noise: The Xinghe 2.0TGDI engine in the Exeed Landmark boasts an idle sound pressure level as low as 61.8dBA, with an interior sound pressure level of just 39dBA. This NVH quality meets international top-tier standards. The exceptional quietness is achieved through the LUK pendulum-type dual-mass flywheel, which effectively reduces torsional vibration from the engine flywheel output by over 50%. Additionally, the engine benefits from an AAM scissor-type dual-balance shaft, NOK (NOK) bending-torsion vibration dampers, and other advanced components, ensuring both quiet and smooth operation.

Can the gear dragging issue of Audi A4 be resolved?

This issue can be resolved. Causes: When quickly shifting from D to R at low speeds, the DCT sometimes pre-engages gears 1/R. At the moment before shifting from D to R, the two input shafts of the DCT rotate in opposite directions. The 1st gear shaft follows the engine, while the R gear input shaft rotates in reverse due to gear transmission as the wheels are still moving forward. At the moment after shifting to R, the clutch switches power transmission, and the flywheel instantly engages with the still-reversing R gear input shaft. The damping springs on the dual-mass flywheel release, amplifying the backlash vibration, resulting in audible noise. The instantaneous direction switch and spring energy release can also easily cause vibrations. Solutions: If the synchronizer sleeve is severely worn, it should be replaced promptly. If the engaging teeth on the gears are severely worn, they should be replaced. If the positioning spring is loose or broken, it should be replaced. If the self-locking grooves or locking balls on the shift fork shaft are severely worn, they should be replaced. If the self-locking cover plate screws are loose, they should be tightened and secured. If the radial clearance of the needle bearings is excessive, they should be replaced. If the centerline of the first shaft is not concentric with the crankshaft centerline, it should be realigned. If the synchronizer sleeve is not fully engaged, it should be adjusted.

What are the causes and solutions for high fuel consumption in cars?

Frequent signs of tire slippage can also increase fuel consumption. In this case, simply replace the tires. If there is a significant buildup of carbon deposits in the engine within a short period, it can also lead to higher car fuel consumption. This situation is likely due to the use of substandard fuel. Once the oxygen sensor is damaged, it will cause an imbalance in the engine's air-fuel ratio, inevitably leading to abnormally high fuel consumption. In this case, the oxygen sensor should be replaced as soon as possible.

Introduction to BMW 5 Series Light Switches?

Light operations can only be performed after starting the vehicle. The turn signals are controlled by the light control (or button) on the left side of the steering wheel, while the headlights and position lights are controlled by the light buttons on the left side of the driver's seat. 1. Turn signals and parking lights can only be activated after the vehicle is ignited. The activation method is simple: just rotate the button on the light control lever to turn on the corresponding lights. Gently flick the light lever, and the corresponding turn signal will flash three times before automatically turning off. 2. High beam activation method: First, turn the light rotary knob to the low beam position, then push the light control lever forward to activate the high beams. Instant high beam function: After turning on the headlights, pull the light control lever backward once to activate the high-low beam alternation, which serves as an effective warning signal. The high beam indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster. 3. Fog lights: The fog light switch is located next to the light rotary knob and can be activated by pressing it. 4. Automatic headlights, low beams, and position lights: Automatic headlights can be enabled via the central control settings. Rotate the light control button sequentially to activate the position lights, automatic headlights, and low beams in order. 5. Headlight cleaning: With the headlights on, activate the windshield washer switch to clean the headlights. If you only want to clean the windshield, turn off the headlights before activating the washer switch. 6. Adaptive headlights: Activation method: Press the light graphic button with the letter A on the left side of the steering wheel.
