A flooded car typically takes about one month to repair at a 4S shop. Relevant information about flooded cars: 1. Definition: A flooded car refers to a vehicle that has been submerged in water, usually meaning the engine and transmission have been soaked, with water depth exceeding the wheels and seats, and prolonged contact between the chassis components and water. 2. Hazards: Flooded cars are prone to short circuits in electronic systems, posing a risk of spontaneous combustion. Critical systems like ABS anti-lock braking, ESP stability control, and ECU engine control may fail during emergencies, leading to unimaginable consequences. Repaired flooded cars are like 'time bombs' that may malfunction at any moment. For example, the engine may suddenly stall during high-speed driving, or airbags may fail to deploy when needed or deploy unexpectedly.

When to Turn on the AC in a Car?

When the weather is hot and you need to turn on the air conditioning to cool down, you can turn on the AC. Here is some introduction about the AC switch: 1. Car air conditioning is divided into cold air conditioning and hot air conditioning. Hot air conditioning does not require turning on the AC, you only need to turn on the blower to use the engine's heat for heating; while cold air conditioning requires turning on the AC switch to make the air conditioning compressor work to produce cold air. 2. In addition, mid-to-high-end car models will have an additional AUTO button, which means automatic air conditioning. When the AUTO button is turned on, the vehicle's computer will automatically identify whether to turn on warm air or cold air through temperature sensors.

What Causes Engine Shaking After Shutdown?

Engine shaking after shutdown can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Excessive carbon deposits: This can lead to pre-ignition and knocking, shortening the engine's lifespan and significantly reducing its power and fuel efficiency; 2. Carbon buildup on valves and their seat rings: Causes incomplete valve closure and air leakage, resulting in difficulties starting the engine, reduced power, and increased susceptibility to valve burning; 3. Carbon deposits and gumming in valve guides and stems: Accelerates wear between the valve stem and guide, potentially causing the valve stem to stick or seize within the guide, leading to valve sticking faults; 4. Carbon accumulation in piston ring grooves: Reduces or eliminates the side and back clearances of piston rings, causing them to lose elasticity and leading to cylinder scuffing. Carbon deposits on fuel injectors can cause uneven fuel injection among cylinders, resulting in engine shaking or misfiring.

Which button is the heater in the car?

Depending on the vehicle model, the heater settings of the air conditioning system may vary. Here are the details: 1. The heater switch is usually displayed as a "thermometer" icon. Press the button to turn on the heater. 2. There are blue and red knobs on both sides. The red one is for heating, and the blue one is for cooling. By turning the knob, the red area gradually increases the temperature, while the blue area decreases it. Here is some information about the car air conditioning system: 1. The car air conditioning system is designed to cool, heat, ventilate, and purify the air inside the cabin. 2. It provides a comfortable environment for passengers, reduces driver fatigue, and enhances driving safety.

When Can You Make a U-Turn at an Intersection?

Whether you can make a U-turn at an intersection depends on the presence of U-turn signs. Here are the methods to determine if a U-turn is allowed at an intersection: 1. No U-turns at crosswalks: If the current lane is a left-turn lane and not a U-turn lane, U-turns are prohibited at crosswalks. 2. No U-turns if there are clear signs prohibiting left turns or U-turns at the intersection. These areas usually have traffic enforcement cameras. 3. When there is a dashed line between the stop line and the crosswalk at the intersection, U-turns are allowed, but you must ensure it does not affect other vehicles and yield appropriately.

What's the reason for a motorcycle not starting and making noise?

The reasons why a motorcycle won't start and makes noise are as follows: 1. Fuel system failure: Mainly caused by the fuel switch not delivering fuel, clogged fuel filter, carburetor not supplying fuel or having an overly rich fuel mixture, or bent fuel pipe issues. 2. Electrical circuit failure: Short circuits in vehicle electrical components (such as ignition switch, ignition coil, ignition module, or magneto failure), or open circuits caused by loose wiring harness connectors. 3. Air pressure failure: Insufficient cylinder compression, improper air intake resistance of the air filter element, engine intake/exhaust system failures, etc. 4. If any of the above problems occur, it is recommended to take the motorcycle to a professional repair shop for inspection and maintenance.
