A broken ball joint on an Audi A6 does have an impact, but it is relatively minor. A damaged stabilizer bar ball joint can cause noise when driving on rough roads, but no abnormal sounds will occur on paved roads. Stabilizer bar suppresses body roll: When the left and right wheels of a car pass over different road bumps or potholes, it generates roll resistance to suppress body roll. Types of stabilizer bars: Front lower control arm stabilizer bar (original equipment necessary part), toe adjustment stabilizer bar (original equipment necessary part), front shock tower brace (commonly known as 'top bar' in Hong Kong and Macau, optional part), front crossmember stabilizer bar (commonly known as 'front lower bar', optional part), etc.

What do FM and AM mean in cars?

FM and AM in cars refer to the AM and FM bands on car radios, which are used for listening to domestic broadcasts. AM usage: AM is a radio band with relatively low sound quality because it uses medium waves. It can be reflected by the atmosphere and diffract around obstacles, allowing for long-distance transmission. It is typically used for interprovincial radio stations. FM advantages: FM is a shortwave band with good direct propagation performance, but it cannot bypass obstacles. Therefore, FM is only suitable for short-distance transmission, and the FM stations you usually hear are local city radio stations. FM offers better sound quality and can also support dual-channel stereo.

Are Position Lights the Same as Daytime Running Lights?

Daytime running lights are not position lights. Below are the differences between the two: 1. Position Lights: Position lights, also known as clearance lights, automatically turn on whenever the vehicle's lights are activated. Located at the rear of the car, small vehicles have one on each side (red in color), while larger vehicles may have several additional ones. Position lights are used when it is not completely dark to indicate the vehicle's width to oncoming and following traffic. They help other drivers judge the size and width of the vehicle ahead during dusk driving. 2. Daytime Running Lights: Installed at the front of the vehicle, daytime running lights make the vehicle more noticeable during daylight hours. Their purpose is not to illuminate the road for the driver but to signal the presence of the vehicle to others. Therefore, these lights are not for illumination but serve as signal lights.

When will the nationwide highway toll-free policy be implemented?

National toll roads will remain free of charge until June 30th. There are three key points to note when driving on highways: 1. Entering the highway: Drivers should accelerate to at least 60 km/h as soon as possible. Vehicles entering from the ramp must increase speed in the acceleration lane and must not obstruct vehicles already in the main lane when merging. They should initially use the outer lane; 2. While driving: Vehicles must stay in their designated lanes. Small passenger vehicles should use the middle lane, while large buses and trucks should use the right lane; 3. Lane changing: Drivers must signal in advance when changing lanes or overtaking. At night, they should alternate between high and low beams. Lane changes should only be made after ensuring safety, and overtaking should only be done using adjacent lanes.

Can motor oils of the same brand be mixed?

Motor oils of the same brand cannot be mixed. Although they share the same brand, different specifications of motor oils adhere to varying standards, viscosities, and low-temperature tolerances in winter, making them incompatible for mixing. Methods for selecting motor oil include: 1. The oil should appear clear with a sulfur content of less than 1%; 2. The weight of residual carbon content should be less than 1%; 3. The volume of water and sediment should be less than 0.1%; 4. The weight of ash content should be less than 0.03%. The functions of motor oil include: 1. Lubrication; 2. Assisting in cooling and temperature reduction; 3. Cleaning carbon deposits and sludge from engine components; 4. Sealing to prevent gas leakage and the entry of external contaminants; 5. Rust and corrosion prevention; 6. Shock absorption and cushioning; 7. Anti-wear properties.

What causes the Highlander's air conditioning to not cool?

Possible reasons for the Highlander's air conditioning not cooling include the compressor protection device tripping and electrical circuit issues. Here are the specific details: 1. High pressure or overheating: Excessive refrigerant. Appropriately reduce the refrigerant amount. Poor heat dissipation. Check if the condenser tube has dust buildup and clean the condenser. Blockage in the pipeline system. Refer to the pressure gauge for judgment, troubleshooting, and re-system processing. Dust accumulation or scaling on the evaporator or filter. 2. Electrical circuit issues include: Control circuit board failure. Temperature sensor overload, incorrect information. Loose power wiring, poor contact. Start capacitor or compressor start coil burned out.
