What is the purpose of the 12V 120W in a car?

The purpose of the 12V 120W in a car is to externally connect electrical devices such as car phones, portable DVDs, and mobile phone chargers. A single socket can provide 12V voltage. It serves as an interface to supply power to electrical devices outside the vehicle, with an output voltage of 12V, while the current varies depending on different vehicle models. The 12V car power source can support electrical devices up to 120W. Additional information about the car power source is as follows: 1. 12V vehicle system: The battery voltage should be around 13V when unloaded, and no less than 11V under load is considered normal. Below this voltage, starting the vehicle may become difficult. 2. 24V vehicle system: The battery voltage should be around 26V when unloaded, and no less than 22V under load is considered normal.

Why Does the Steering Wheel Become Hard to Turn on Rainy Days?

There are two scenarios when a car's steering wheel becomes hard to turn on rainy days: The first scenario occurs when starting the vehicle, and the second happens when the steering wheel, which was previously functioning normally, suddenly becomes difficult to turn. Below is a detailed analysis of why a car's steering wheel may become hard to turn on rainy days: 1. Steering wheel hard to turn when starting the vehicle: This is usually due to the activation of the steering wheel lock feature. This happens because the steering wheel was turned after the vehicle was turned off, leading the car's computer to assume a potential theft situation, thereby automatically activating the anti-theft function. 2. Steering wheel suddenly becomes hard to turn when it was previously fine: It is recommended to visit a repair shop for maintenance.

Is it legal to modify a MINI with a JCW exhaust?

It is a legal modification. Here are the details: 1. Original JCW-PRO exhaust: The JCW-PRO exhaust is manufactured by Akrapovič, a top-tier exhaust manufacturer. It excels in sound, texture, quality, and performance data. 2. Benefits of replacement: The MINI has strong sports car attributes, with its factory-tuned stiff suspension providing excellent handling. Whether it's the 1.5T or 2.0T models, both are calibrated for aggressive performance. The compact body allows drivers to navigate traffic with ease. Upgrading the exhaust can slightly increase power and significantly enhance the sound quality. The advantage of replacing the exhaust is that it improves exhaust flow, leading to a modest power boost. More importantly, it elevates the sound quality—not just noise, but a deep, textured sports car roar.

Can Flood-Damaged Cars Be Detected?

Yes. The following are methods to detect flood-damaged cars: 1. Check if the body paint color is consistent and whether the surface curvature on both sides is smooth. View the paint reflection at a 30° to 45° angle to see if it is reasonable. If there are differences, the vehicle has definitely been repaired, and the repair quality is poor. Place the vehicle on a flat surface, stand 3 to 5 meters directly in front of it, and observe if the shoulders of the car are at the same height. If they are not, it indicates that the body frame has been repaired or the suspension and shock absorbers were not properly fixed. 2. Observe if the seams between the engine hood and the fenders on both sides are even, if the gaps along the door edges are consistent, and if the gaps around the headlights and rear combination lights where they connect to the metal are uniform, as well as whether their aging levels match.
