Different insurance companies have varying regulations. For example, Ping An Auto Insurance stipulates that cars within 8 years can purchase spontaneous combustion insurance; Dadi Auto Insurance allows normal purchase within 6 years, with very low coverage for cars exceeding 6 years. Below is an introduction to spontaneous combustion insurance: 1. Introduction: Spontaneous combustion insurance, also known as the additional spontaneous combustion loss insurance for vehicles, is an additional coverage under the motor vehicle loss insurance. During the insurance period, if the insured vehicle catches fire due to issues with its own circuits, wiring, fuel lines, fuel supply system, cargo, or friction during operation. 2. Analysis: According to insurance clauses, spontaneous combustion is an exclusion under vehicle loss insurance, and insurance companies will note this in the policy. If you are concerned about your car catching fire spontaneously, you should purchase specialized spontaneous combustion loss insurance. Especially in high-temperature weather, electrical components are prone to overheating, and gasoline is more likely to evaporate, which can easily lead to spontaneous combustion if exposed to sparks. 3. Insurance Premium Rate: It is understood that different insurance companies have slight differences in their regulations, but they are generally similar. Typically, the premium for spontaneous combustion insurance is mainly related to the age of the insured vehicle and the insured amount of the vehicle loss insurance. The calculation formula is: = vehicle age rate × insured amount of vehicle loss insurance.

At what sub-zero temperature does No. 0 diesel freeze?

No. 0 diesel freezes at zero degrees Celsius. The freezing of diesel is referred to as crystallization. The grade of diesel is named after the freezing point of the oil product, so No. 0 diesel begins to crystallize at 0 degrees Celsius. Automotive diesel is the specialized fuel for diesel engine vehicles. Compared to gasoline engines, diesel engines have higher thermal efficiency, better power performance, greater power output, durability, reliability, and superior cleanliness. The main difference between diesel and gasoline engines lies in the ignition method. In diesel engines, diesel fuel ignites spontaneously upon contact with compressed high-temperature air, hence they are called compression-ignition engines. Gasoline engines, on the other hand, ignite the air-fuel mixture using spark plugs, making them spark-ignition engines.

What to Do When the Roadside Emission Test Shows Exceeding Limits?

If caught with excessive emissions, you will be subject to corresponding fines and a deduction of 3 points. Below are the reasons for excessive emissions: 1. Use of inferior fuel: Using low-quality fuel can lead to incomplete combustion in the engine, resulting in carbon deposits. When we notice an unusually strong smell from the exhaust, we should go to a certified repair shop for inspection and timely resolution. 2. Clogged catalytic converter: A clogged catalytic converter and malfunctioning oxygen sensor are also causes of excessive emissions. We should first check the OBD system, then flush the catalytic converter, clean the fuel injectors, clean the throttle body, intake manifold, etc., and add a lubrication system repair and protection agent.

DCT Transmission: Dry or Wet Type?

DCT transmissions are divided into two categories: dry and wet types. More information about DCT transmissions is as follows: Dry Clutch: A dry clutch uses air to cool the clutch. In use, the clutch must engage and disengage from the power source smoothly and effortlessly. It should not overheat even when operating under short periods of partial engagement. The advantages include lower manufacturing costs and higher mechanical transmission efficiency. The disadvantages are that operation requires mastering certain techniques, can be more cumbersome, and has a higher failure rate. Wet Clutch: The advantages are ease of operation and a lower failure rate. The disadvantages include higher manufacturing costs and lower mechanical transmission efficiency.
