Diesel fuel entering engine oil treatment method: It is necessary to promptly replace the engine oil to avoid affecting the engine's performance and causing damage to the vehicle. Of course, the amount of diesel entering the engine oil should also be taken into consideration. If the proportion is small, it will not have a significant impact on the engine. However, if a large amount enters, immediate replacement is required. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. Diesel fuel is a light petroleum product, a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, typically used as fuel for diesel engines.

How to Check the Thickness of Brake Pads?

Methods to check the thickness of brake pads: 1. Visual inspection: Some brake pads can be seen through the gaps in the wheel hub. If the brake pads have worn down to one-third of the standard thickness, it is recommended to replace them; 2. Dashboard handbrake light: Some vehicle models will display a warning on the dashboard handbrake light position when the brake pads are too thin. There are also tools available to check the thickness of brake pads for a better assessment. Brake pads, also known as brake linings, are the most critical safety components in a car's braking system. The effectiveness of all braking actions is determined by the brake pads. Brake pads are generally composed of a steel plate, an adhesive heat insulation layer, and a friction block. The steel plate is coated to prevent rust, and the coating process is monitored using an SMT4 oven temperature tracker to ensure the temperature distribution during coating meets quality standards.

Does the new Bora have a particulate filter?

The new Bora comes in a total of 15 models, all equipped with particulate filters. It features three types of engines: a 1.2T turbocharged, a 1.4T turbocharged, and a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, all of which meet the China VI emission standards. The particulate filter can reduce soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. It is generally located behind the three-way catalytic converter and in front of the muffler, surrounded by front and rear oxygen sensors. With the exception of a very few models, almost all China VI-compliant vehicles are equipped with particulate filters. After the China VI standards were released, automakers found it nearly impossible to meet the standards without changing design direction, R&D investment, or performance. Therefore, most models that comply with the China VI standards are equipped with particulate filters. However, a very few models without particulate filters also meet the China VI emission standards, as follows: Toyota: Camry, RAV4, C-HR, etc.; Honda: Lingpai Hybrid, CR-V Hybrid, Accord Hybrid, etc.; Mazda: Axela, CX-30, CX-5, etc.; BYD: Qin PLUS DM-i, Song PLUS DM-i.

Is DSG an Automatic Transmission?

DSG is an automatic transmission. DSG is Volkswagen's dual-clutch transmission. Unlike conventional semi-automatic transmission systems, DSG is based on a manual transmission rather than an automatic transmission. It has the external appearance of an automatic transmission with the same gear settings as an automatic, but its internal structure consists of the gear mechanism of a manual transmission. DSG uses the traditional P, R, N, D, and S gear settings, allowing automatic shifting into D (Drive) mode or S (Sport) mode. In normal mode, DSG upshifts early to reduce engine noise and improve fuel economy, while in sport mode, the transmission stays in lower gears longer to ensure sufficient power.

What is the L gear in an automatic transmission car?

Automatic transmission car L gear is the low gear. When in L gear, the transmission will stay in 1st gear, adjusting the rotation ratio of power input and output to low speed and high torque, thereby obtaining strong traction. This gear is usually suitable for steep slope roads. When in L gear, the transmission is in 1st or 2nd gear, giving the vehicle strong torque but relatively low speed. The high torque of L gear can be used to climb steep uphill slopes, or the lower speed of L gear can be utilized for long downhill descents. L gear can also be used in stop-and-go city traffic to reduce the jerking caused by frequent gear shifts.

What is the Principle of a Car Steering Gear?

Principle of a car steering gear: When the car is driving straight, the steering control valve connects the working fluid pumped by the steering pump to the oil tank, and the steering pump is in an unloading state. When the car needs to turn right, the steering control valve connects the working fluid pumped by the steering pump to the R chamber and connects the L chamber to the oil tank, causing the left and right wheels to deflect to the right through the transmission mechanism, thereby achieving a right turn. The main function of the steering gear is to amplify the force transmitted from the steering wheel to the steering arm and change the direction of force transmission. To improve driving safety, modern cars generally use a segmented steering shaft connected by universal joints in the middle. This not only enhances driving safety but also facilitates the overall vehicle layout, deformation, and maintenance, as well as the serialized production of steering gears.

What causes the abnormal noise from the engine timing belt?

When encountering abnormal noise from the engine timing belt, first check the assembly. The noise may be caused by friction between the timing belt and the timing cover. You can loosen the screws on the timing cover by half a turn to observe if the noise disappears. Next, inspect the condition of the generator belt, as the noise might originate from the accessory belt. If the timing belt tension is adjusted too tightly, remove the generator and air conditioning power steering belts to rule out whether the issue lies with these belts. A faulty timing belt tensioner usually requires replacement along with the timing belt. The noise could also be due to issues with individual engine bearings, so carefully identify the exact source of the sound. If the specific cause cannot be determined, it is recommended to visit a professional repair shop for inspection to pinpoint the issue.
