Asphalt on the car can be cleaned with an asphalt cleaner. Below is an introduction about asphalt: 1. Asphalt Cleaning Method: First, prepare a tar asphalt cleaner, shake the asphalt cleaner, then spray the tar asphalt cleaner onto the asphalt, applying as much as possible to fully dissolve the asphalt, and then wipe it off with a dry towel to clean it. 2. Asphalt Paint: Asphalt paint is mainly made from coal tar asphalt and coal tar, with the addition of diluents, modifiers, drying agents, and other organic solvents. The ratio of the main ingredients generally varies depending on climate, temperature, and usage environment, and modifiers are added as needed. Asphalt paint is mostly used for underground pipeline anti-corrosion projects.

Asphalt spots on the car body are tar stains picked up during driving, which require careful handling. Every time I encounter this situation, I first rinse the entire car body with water to remove surface dust and loose dirt, avoiding scratches on the paint. Then, I evenly spray a dedicated asphalt cleaner on the spots and wait for five to six minutes to let it fully soften. Next, I gently wipe off the stains with a soft cloth or sponge, avoiding scrapers or hard objects to prevent scratches. Finally, rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry the car body. If the asphalt spots have hardened over time, it may require repeating the process several times. Protecting the car body is crucial, and timely treatment can prevent corrosion. I also recommend developing a habit of regular car washing. For prevention, avoiding construction zones or bumpy roads after rain while driving can reduce such issues.

718 with 95 or 98?

The Porsche 718 uses 95-octane gasoline, as announced by the automaker. Owners of the Porsche 718 can also check this information in the vehicle's configuration sheet. Generally, the higher the gasoline octane rating, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92-octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95-octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. High-compression engines should use high-octane gasoline. Using low-octane gasoline in a high-compression engine can lead to abnormal combustion, causing knocking, increased fuel consumption, and reduced power. For the Porsche 718, in addition to checking the recommended gasoline octane in the owner's manual, you can also find it on the fuel tank cap, which will indicate the appropriate octane rating. Typically, the required gasoline octane can also be determined by the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with a compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92-octane gasoline, those between 10.0-11.5 should use 95-octane gasoline, and those with higher compression ratios should use 98-octane gasoline. However, with the use of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the required gasoline octane. High-compression engines can be tuned to use lower-octane gasoline because factors other than compression ratio, such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology, also play a role. Occasionally using the wrong gasoline octane is not a problem as long as you switch back to the correct one afterward. However, prolonged use of the wrong octane can have the following effects: For vehicles designed for low-octane gasoline, using high-octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increased octane rating can alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles designed for high-octane gasoline, using low-octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Since the octane rating is too low, the gasoline may ignite prematurely during the compression stroke before the spark plug fires. This creates resistance during the upward stroke, making the engine run very unstable. Mild knocking may only increase noise without significant engine damage, but severe knocking indicates serious engine issues. The vibrations not only affect driving stability but can also cause abnormal wear on the pistons and cylinders, potentially leading to severe engine damage.

What to Do If You Don't Have Enough Driver's License Points?

Solutions for insufficient driver's license points: 1. If you have no traffic violation records within a scoring cycle, you can receive a 3-point reward. This point-adding policy is mainly designed to encourage drivers to comply with traffic regulations. However, this policy is quite challenging for many drivers, as minor violations are common during daily driving. Even a single violation will disqualify you from receiving the 3-point reward. 2. If you can report others' illegal driving behaviors with valid evidence within a year, you may receive a 3-point reward as a reporting bonus after verification and statistics.

What are the pros and cons of steering wheel boosters?

The pros and cons of steering wheel boosters are as follows: 1. Advantages: (1) Parking: Lane changing and overtaking at low speeds can be completed with one hand. (2) Relief: In summer, sweaty hands can cause the steering wheel to slip, and the booster ball can alleviate this problem. 2. Disadvantages: (1) Shortened lifespan: Turning the wheel too quickly puts significant pressure on the power steering system, shortening its lifespan. (2) Locking the steering wheel: Turning too quickly can accidentally lock the steering wheel, producing a knocking sound. (3) Secondary accidents: In the event of a collision, the protruding booster ball can cause secondary injuries. Below is additional information about steering wheel boosters: 1. Steering wheel booster: Also known as a steering wheel booster ball, its main function is to assist the driver in reducing the effort required to turn the steering wheel, making driving more effortless. 2. Installing a booster ball on the steering wheel: The bayonet is made of durable stainless steel heavy metal material, allowing for quick turns with one hand and making driving more convenient.

What is an Engine Brake?

Engine braking refers to the process of lifting the throttle pedal without depressing the clutch, utilizing the compression resistance, internal friction, and intake/exhaust resistance generated by the engine's compression stroke to create a braking effect on the drive wheels. Below is additional information on engine braking: 1. Engine Braking: Also known as "coasting in gear"—keeping the gear engaged without applying throttle, the engine provides no traction to the vehicle. Instead, the rotation of the wheels drives the drivetrain, and the idling engine generates a counteracting resistance. The higher the gear, the less the engine affects the vehicle, and vice versa. This differs from clutch braking, brake pedal braking, and parking braking. 2. Engine Braking Process: The engine generates torque during operation, which is transmitted to the clutch or torque converter via the flywheel. After being adjusted for speed and torque by the transmission, it is passed to the driveshaft (front-wheel-drive vehicles do not have a driveshaft). The driveshaft then transmits this modified torque to the vehicle's drive axle, where further speed reduction and torque increase occur before being output through the half-shafts to drive the wheel rotation.

How to activate the automatic braking in Volvo XC60?

There is a button with a circle containing an 'A' and an outer bracket near the handbrake lever. Press it to activate the automatic braking. Relevant details are as follows: 1. The automatic braking system enables the vehicle to detect pedestrians or vehicles ahead, whether stationary or moving. If the driver fails to respond promptly, the vehicle will automatically brake to reduce or avoid collisions. 2. The XC60 is equipped with the City Safety system, which uses a laser sensor installed at the top of the windshield, at rearview mirror height, to monitor traffic conditions ahead. 3. It helps avoid or reduce collision severity by automatically applying brakes and reducing throttle, while flashing brake lights to alert other vehicles. The system can detect cars and other objects within 10 meters in front of the bumper.
