Here is an introduction to the mileage and frequency of car usage: 1. Infrequent: If the car is not used frequently, normal usage would typically cover 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers per year, which would be considered a lot. 2. Frequent: If the car is used frequently, driving 20,000 kilometers is quite normal and would not be considered a lot. Below is an introduction to how many kilometers one liter of fuel can cover: 1. City cars: One liter of fuel can typically cover about 10 to 15 kilometers in a city car. 2. Highways: On highways, if driving at a constant speed, one liter of fuel can cover approximately 20 to 30 kilometers. Below are extended details on related topics: 1. Fuel consumption: Fuel consumption depends on the car's engine displacement and each driver's driving skills. 2. Refueling: Refuel promptly but do not fill the tank completely. It is not recommended to wait until the fuel light comes on to refuel, as this can damage the fuel pump. Avoid filling the tank to the brim, as a full tank of fuel is equivalent to the weight of an adult. If you are not traveling long distances and mainly driving in the city, there is no need to fill the tank completely. Try to avoid refueling during the hottest part of the afternoon. It is better to refuel when the temperature difference between day and night is significant. Refueling 50 liters at noon compared to early morning is equivalent to getting half a liter less fuel, as fuel dispensers measure by volume, not by mass.

What is the braking principle of a sedan?

The braking principle of a car is as follows: 1. Principle one: The general working principle of the braking system is to use the mutual friction between the non-rotating components connected to the body or frame and the rotating components connected to the wheels or drive shaft to prevent the rotation or tendency of rotation of the wheels. 2. Principle two: When the braking system is not in operation, there is a gap between the shoe and drum, allowing the wheels and brake drum to rotate freely. 3. Principle three: During braking, to decelerate the car, stepping on the brake pedal pushes the master cylinder piston through the push rod, causing the master cylinder fluid to flow into the wheel cylinder under a certain pressure. This action pushes the two wheel cylinder pistons to rotate the brake shoes around the support pins, causing their upper ends to separate and press the friction linings against the inner surface of the brake drum.

What are the signs of a damaged car shock absorber?

The performance of a car shock absorber mainly manifests in four aspects. Here is a detailed introduction to the signs of a damaged car shock absorber: 1. Abnormal noise: When driving over large potholes or raised sections of the road, the vehicle may produce a metal collision sound. 2. Unstable tires: The rear tires' grip decreases, making it prone to fishtailing or understeering. Shock absorbers prevent the tires from bouncing off the ground; if damaged, they can affect the stability of the rear wheels. 3. Body shaking: If the shock absorber's performance is poor, the car body will shake abnormally, causing discomfort and motion sickness on bumpy roads. 4. Poor handling: Especially at high speeds, the vehicle's steering becomes less responsive when shaking, and braking does not achieve the usual effect, resulting in poor handling.

The Difference Between 5W40 and 10W40 Engine Oil

5W40 and 10W40 engine oils differ in their applicable temperature ranges. Below are the key distinctions: 1. 5W40 indicates the oil's minimum applicable temperature is -30°C, whereas 10W40 signifies a minimum applicable temperature of -25°C. 2. The letter W stands for Winter, meaning oils with W are suitable for both winter and summer use. The number 40 represents the oil's high-temperature viscosity grade – the higher the number, the stronger the oil's high-temperature viscosity and the thicker the oil film. 3. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, serves multiple functions including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a vehicle.

What Causes Engine Fuel Cut-Off?

The causes of engine fuel cut-off include fuel system issues, electrical circuit problems, or brake light switch malfunctions. Below are detailed explanations: Fuel system issues: Problems with the fuel injector or throttle body can lead to fuel cut-off. Inspection of the fuel injector and throttle body is required; if issues are found, cleaning, repair, or replacement of the components may be necessary. Electrical circuit problems: Ignition coils, high-voltage packs, etc., can cause engine fuel cut-off. The vehicle's malfunction indicator lamp may display a warning. If no warning is shown, a diagnostic computer at a 4S shop can detect the fault, and repairs or replacements can resolve the issue. Brake light switch problem: Some vehicles are equipped with a brake override system. If the brake light switch becomes overly sensitive—for example, activating due to vibration—the engine control unit will prioritize braking by cutting off fuel to the engine when the brake light signal is on.

What is a Particulate Filter?

A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine emission system, which captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. Functions of the Particulate Filter: 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. Application Technology of the Particulate Filter: The particulate filter employs advanced electronic control systems, catalytic coatings, and fuel-additive catalysts. 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 pipeline. After passing through its densely arranged bag-type filter, the carbon particles are adsorbed on the filter made of metal fiber felt. When the adsorption of particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites and burns, turning the adsorbed carbon particles into harmless carbon dioxide that is then released.
