After ECU tuning, the owner's requirements for gasoline quality will become higher. If low-quality gasoline is used, it may damage the vehicle. The temperature requirements also increase. After ECU tuning, the engine operates at overclocked frequencies, and without an excellent cooling system, it may affect the engine's lifespan. Below is relevant information about automotive ECU: Composition of Automotive ECU: It consists of microcontrollers, memory, input/output interfaces, analog-to-digital converters, as well as shaping, driving, and other large-scale integrated circuits. Automatic Diagnostic Function of Automotive ECU: ECUs generally have self-diagnosis and protection functions.

Which manufacturer supplies the transmission for the Lynk & Co 03?

The Lynk & Co 03 1.5T three-cylinder model adopts Geely's domestically produced 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, while the 2.0T four-cylinder variant utilizes an imported Aisin 6AT transmission from Japan. The Lynk & Co 03 is built on the CMA platform jointly developed by Geely and Volvo. In terms of dimensions, it measures 4658mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1459mm in height. At the rear, the "L"-shaped taillights and dual round exhaust pipes maintain high similarity with the concept car, ensuring distinctive recognition. Exterior-wise, the production model features split-type headlights and a horizontal through-type grille, inheriting the concept car's design language, particularly evident in the slightly fastback-style C-pillar treatment.

What is the ground clearance of the Baojun E100?

The ground clearance of the Baojun E100 is 130mm, which meets the standard for a micro car. The Baojun E100 is a 3-door, 2-seater pure electric micro hatchback produced by SAIC-GM-Wuling. In terms of body dimensions, it measures 2488mm in length, 1506mm in width, and 1670mm in height, with a wheelbase of 1600mm. The front face of the Baojun E100 features a perforated grille with smooth lines, and the A-pillars are blackened, combined with a two-tone body design to create a floating roof visual effect. The side profile of the Baojun E100 is also relatively simple, with taillights adopting a quasi-through design connected by a light strip in the middle.

What is the Function of the Crank Connecting Rod Mechanism?

The function of the crank connecting rod mechanism is to provide a combustion chamber, convert the expansion pressure of the gas generated after fuel combustion acting on the top of the piston into the rotational torque of the crankshaft, and continuously output power. The crank connecting rod mechanism is the main moving mechanism of the engine, whose purpose is to convert the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion of the crankshaft, while converting the force acting on the piston into the torque output by the crankshaft to drive the rotation of the car's wheels. The crank connecting rod mechanism consists of three parts: the engine block group, the piston connecting rod group, and the crankshaft flywheel group. Among them, the engine block forms the skeleton of the engine and serves as the installation base for various mechanisms and systems of the engine. All major components and accessories of the engine are installed inside and outside the block, which bears various loads.

Should the front and rear tire pressures be the same?

The front and rear tire pressures cannot be exactly the same, but it is advisable to keep the tire pressures on the left and right sides consistent, allowing for a margin of error of 0.1 bar. Taking an ordinary family car as an example, when typically carrying two passengers, the standard tire pressure for the front wheels is 2.3 bar, and the standard tire pressure for the rear wheels is also 2.3 bar. When the load increases, such as in a fully loaded situation, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased. The front tire pressure can be adjusted to 2.4 bar, and the rear tire pressure can be adjusted to 2.6 bar. The standard tire pressure for each car can be found near the fuel filler cap, with the first row in the tire pressure chart indicating the standard tire pressure.

What is the function of ESP?

The function of ESP is: when the vehicle is driving on a road with low friction, tire slippage can cause the direction and speed of the vehicle to be uncontrollable by the driver. ESP can intervene by braking the wheels that are not slipping, thereby helping the driver regain control of the vehicle and ensuring driving safety. ESP includes functions such as electronic brake force distribution, anti-lock braking system, traction control system, and vehicle dynamic control system. The ESP electronic stability program does not have a switch; it is automatically controlled by the vehicle's built-in microcomputer chip and does not require manual activation or deactivation.
