ESP is a system designed to prevent skidding and fishtailing, ensuring stable vehicle control. Below are detailed explanations: 1. Operational State: It only forcibly intervenes via computer control under extreme conditions, adjusting power output and braking as needed. Under normal driving conditions, there is virtually no difference between having ESP activated or deactivated. When the vehicle remains under control, the system stays in standby mode, continuously monitoring driving conditions. It activates only when incidents like fishtailing or skidding occur. 2. Types: (1) Four-wheel braking force is applied independently in a four-channel or four-wheel system. (2) Braking force can be individually applied to the two front wheels in a dual-channel system. (3) A three-channel rear system simultaneously applies braking force, capable of separating the two front wheels and applying braking force.

Can a replaced car be replaced again?

No. Here is the relevant introduction: Replacement car purchase: Replacement car purchase is a business where consumers use the assessed value of a used car plus additional payment to purchase a new car from a brand dealer. Since manufacturers participating in replacement have good reputation and high-quality services, their brand dealers can also provide consumers involved in replacement with a sense of trust and more transparent, safe, and convenient services. Therefore, more and more consumers who want to replace their cars are willing to try this emerging business. Notes: Before going to a 4S store for replacement evaluation, be sure to check whether the vehicle's documents are complete. These include the original ID card and its copy, the original vehicle purchase invoice or the last transfer invoice and its copy, the original vehicle registration certificate and its copy, and the original vehicle license and its copy.

How Often Should the Battery of a Bora Be Replaced?

The designed lifespan of the Volkswagen New Bora's battery is 27 months, after which it should be replaced. The old battery should be handled by a 4S shop or repair shop. It is important to frequently check the car battery: once a week in summer and every two weeks in winter. Factors affecting battery lifespan include the car's condition, road conditions, and the driver's habits. Here is additional information: 1. The role of the battery: The battery plays a crucial role in the operation of a car. If it cannot supply power normally, the engine may malfunction or stop. When the battery voltage is insufficient, causing dim lights and weak starting, it should be externally charged promptly. The battery should be kept away from heat sources and open flames, and ventilation should be maintained during charging and use to prevent burns and injuries. Avoid prolonged high-current discharge of the battery. Each start-up should not exceed 5 seconds, and there should be a 10-15 second interval between two consecutive start-ups. 2. Battery maintenance: If everyone's battery does not require maintenance, it should last three to four years, after which it is best to replace it with a new one. During normal driving, avoid idling for long periods while running the air conditioner and listening to music, or charging mobile phones as much as possible, as these operations can easily lead to battery aging.

What are the side effects of adding fuel additives to old cars?

If used excessively, it can increase carbon deposits in the combustion chamber. If excessive addition continues over a long period, it may even cause engine knocking, detonation, and worsen vehicle exhaust emissions. The following is a related introduction: Fuel additive: Fuel additive is a common name for the third generation of gasoline detergent (also known as gasoline detergent or fuel additive). Its purpose is to solve the carbon deposit problem in the fuel system of fuel injection vehicles, quickly restore the engine to optimal working condition, and compensate for certain deficiencies in gasoline properties while imparting new beneficial characteristics (improving atomization, reducing wear, protecting the engine, lowering emissions, etc.). Functions: Removing carbon deposits, improving atomization, protecting the engine, lowering emissions, and reducing wear.

Where are Fumax tires produced?

Fumax tires are produced in China. Methods to identify the quality of tires: 1. Observe the tread color and gloss of the tire: From the tread pattern, generally speaking, due to the irregular processing of inferior retreaded tires, the tread grooves are relatively shallow. In terms of color, inferior retreaded tires appear bright and shiny, while genuine tires are relatively darker. Retreaded tires have a duller color and gloss. 2. Observe the joint between the tread and the sidewall: First, look at the sidewall to see if all the markings are complete. Each tire manufacturer has a tread pattern code marking; check if the tread code matches the tire pattern. Next, observe whether the joint between the tread and the carcass at the shoulder is smooth. Retreaded tires are made by attaching a self-made tread to an old carcass, so the joint between the tread and the sidewall is not as smooth and even as that of a new tire, and there are visible joint marks on the tire sidewall. 3. Observe the tire markings: Brand tires produced by regular manufacturers have raised markings indicating the tire model and performance, with the production date printed on the inner side. The wear indicators in the anti-slip grooves of the tread are clearly visible. If you can scratch these markings off with your fingernail, it must be a retreaded tire.

What is the difference between blue label and yellow label car batteries?

The difference between yellow label and blue label batteries lies in their performance, warranty period, and price. Yellow label batteries offer stable performance with a two-year warranty, while blue label batteries come with a warranty of only one and a half years. In terms of price, yellow label batteries are also more expensive than blue label batteries. Below are some maintenance methods for car batteries: 1. In-car electricity usage: To maintain the car battery, avoid activities like listening to the radio loudly, charging your phone, or using an air pump when the engine is off. Prolonged use under these conditions can lead to battery drain, and frequent draining significantly reduces the battery's lifespan. 2. Long-distance high-speed driving: Regularly driving on highways has many benefits, not only clearing carbon deposits from the vehicle but also fully charging the battery. Generally, driving on the highway for more than an hour can fully charge the battery, keeping it in optimal condition. 3. Avoid prolonged vehicle inactivity: If the car is not used for an extended period, disconnect the battery cable or start the vehicle every two weeks and drive several dozen kilometers to ensure the battery remains functional. 4. High-power electrical connections: Many car appliances nowadays, such as car refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, and air pumps, have high instantaneous power consumption. Do not power these devices directly from the car battery. Instead, start the vehicle first before connecting any electrical equipment.
