The size of brake discs does not need to be checked. If you want to replace your brake discs, simply remove them and measure the diameter. Brake discs generally require replacement only after a long mileage, and they should be regularly inspected during maintenance. During use, brake discs may develop some grooves. If there are many deep grooves, the brake discs need to be replaced. When replacing brake discs, it's important to note that the sizes of front and rear brake discs are different, with front brake discs usually being larger than rear ones. There are various types of brake discs, including carbon ceramic brake discs, slotted brake discs, slotted and drilled brake discs, and double-layer heat dissipation brake discs.

How to Prepare Windshield Washer Fluid?

Here are two different preparation methods based on seasonal climates: 1. Spring: With frequent rain and heavy windblown dust, the windshield gets dirty easily. The primary function of windshield washer fluid during this season is cleaning. First, prepare a clean 2.5L plastic bottle. Mix 2L of purified water, 250ml of 95% medical-grade alcohol, and 1-2 caps of detergent (use high-quality detergent). The detergent helps remove dust as its foam quickly eliminates dirt, but avoid excessive amounts as it may be hard to rinse off. Alcohol accelerates water evaporation for faster cleaning. 2. Summer/Fall: Rain may not heavily soil the windshield, but insect residues are common and hard to remove with plain water due to stubborn insect resin. Thus, more solvent is needed. Similarly, use a 2.5L plastic bottle with 2L purified water, 500ML of 95% medical-grade alcohol, and just 1 cap of detergent.

Does the Audi A6 have a particulate filter?

Audi A6-2.0T models do not have a particulate filter, while the 3.0T models are equipped with one. There are currently 12 models of Audi A6 available for sale, all of which comply with the China VI emission standards. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the exhaust system of diesel engines, which captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. It can reduce the soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Working principle of the particulate filter: The diesel particulate filter is coated with metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium. The black smoke containing carbon particles emitted by the diesel engine enters the exhaust particulate trap through a dedicated pipe. The densely arranged bag-type filter inside captures the carbon soot particles on a filter made of metal fiber felt. When the accumulation of particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites, burning off the captured carbon soot particles and converting them into harmless carbon dioxide. To check whether the Audi A6 is equipped with a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: Check the "Owner's Maintenance Manual" and "Owner's User Manual" to see if there is a particulate filter function. Additionally, you can carefully review the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "particulate filter" warning light indicator. Check the label on the oil cap. If the oil cap clearly indicates the use of 0W-20 grade oil, it means the vehicle is equipped with a particulate filter. Look behind the three-way catalytic converter on the exhaust pipe to see if there is a cylindrical section. If there is, that is the particulate filter.

Is the Mercedes-AMG an Imported Car?

Mercedes-AMG is an imported car. Below is relevant information about imported cars: Classification of Imported Cars: An imported car refers to a vehicle entirely manufactured abroad and then transported to the domestic market for sale. This means that neither the technology nor the materials involve any Chinese participation throughout the entire process. Currently, there are two common types of imported cars: one is sold through 4S dealerships, introduced with "original manufacturer authorization," known as China-spec vehicles, and the other is imported by car dealers through international channels without "original manufacturer authorization."
