It is normal for car glass production dates to be different, as long as the glass production date is earlier than the vehicle's manufacturing date. Car glass is installed after the vehicle is produced, and it is uniformly procured by manufacturers in advance. Due to different procurement batches, the dates will naturally vary. How to read car glass production dates: Dots before the number indicate the first half of the year - subtract the number of dots from 7 to get the month; dots after the number indicate the second half of the year - subtract the number of dots from 13 to get the month.

What Causes a Car to Break Down?

A dead battery making it hard to start, a damaged fuel pump, transmission failure, or an overloaded engine can all cause a vehicle to break down. When a car malfunctions to the point where it cannot start or continue driving, this situation is referred to as a breakdown. The importance of the battery to a car is self-evident—it is a component prone to damage. Over time, most batteries gradually lose their charge, and a dead battery is one of the common reasons for a car breaking down. Additional Information: Car Battery: A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Typically, the term 'battery' refers to a lead-acid battery, which is mainly composed of lead and its oxides, with a sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. Transmission: The transmission is a device that changes the speed ratio and direction of motion. Used in cars, tractors, ships, machine tools, and various machinery, it adjusts the torque, speed, and direction of motion transferred from the driving shaft to the driven shaft under different working conditions. A gear-driven transmission generally consists of a housing and several gears.

What is the operating instruction for the air conditioning in the older BMW 5 Series?

Below are the operating instructions for the air conditioning in the older BMW 5 Series: 1. Press the A/C button to activate the BMW 5 Series air conditioning system. The indicator light in the button will illuminate. Press the button again to turn off the compressor, and the indicator light will go out. 2. If the air conditioning performance is lower than expected, check the surface of the air conditioning condenser (located in front of the radiator) for dirt or insect buildup. Please visit a BMW 5 Series service station for cleaning. Placing obstructions in front of the engine hood will reduce airflow to the condenser, thereby lowering air conditioning performance. 3. After activating the external air circulation in the BMW 5 Series, the air intake located at the firewall will be opened by the air conditioning computer. The blower inside the vehicle will draw outside air through the micro-dust filter into the two heat exchangers (cooling and heating) inside the evaporator. The air processed by the heat exchangers will then be blown out through the vents. When the external circulation mode is activated, the air intake opens, connecting the air inside and outside the vehicle. For example, when encountering traffic congestion in the city, you can turn on the external circulation mode.

Can a car be driven if the exhaust pipe is submerged in water?

Can a car be driven if the exhaust pipe is submerged in water? Yes, but it should be driven at a low gear and constant speed. When the engine is running, it forces exhaust gases out, creating higher pressure inside the exhaust pipe than the surrounding environment. Therefore, even if the exhaust pipe is submerged in water, it will not cause the engine to stall. In such a situation, the car should be driven in a low gear at a steady speed. In a low gear, the engine has sufficient power to overcome additional resistance. Additional information: Specific definition of a water-damaged vehicle: A vehicle begins to accumulate water, and internal components suffer damage due to water exposure. Water-damaged vehicles have corresponding flood levels. Flood level classification: Level 1—water just reaches the vehicle's chassis; Level 2—water submerges half of the wheels; Level 3—water almost completely submerges the tires; Level 4—water reaches the engine hood; Level 5—water completely submerges the engine hood; Level 6—water submerges the roof.

How Long Does It Take for a Car Horn to Recover After Getting Wet?

How long it takes for a car horn to recover after getting wet depends on the method used to address the issue. Different methods lead to varying recovery times. Generally, it can be divided into the following scenarios: Minor water ingress: In this case, no special treatment is usually needed. Simply wait for the moisture inside the horn to evaporate naturally, which typically takes 1-2 days. Once the water dries, the horn will return to normal. However, it's best to remove the horn and reinstall it after 1-2 days once it's completely dry. Moderate water ingress: In this situation, the horn must be disassembled and dried using a hairdryer. The heat from the hairdryer will help accelerate the evaporation of internal moisture. Once the water dries, the horn will function normally again. If not addressed promptly, prolonged moisture can cause a short circuit, leading to horn failure. Severe water ingress: This usually results in the horn being irreparable. The only solution is to replace the horn. When replacing, it's recommended to visit a 4S store or a professional auto repair shop to have the staff handle the replacement. Avoid attempting it yourself, as improper handling can easily cause secondary damage and unnecessary waste.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the Audi A6?

The minimum ground clearance of the Audi A6 is 117mm. Minimum ground clearance is defined as the distance between the lowest protruding part of the chassis and the level ground when the car is fully loaded (with the maximum allowable load mass). The following is an introduction to the ground clearance of sedans and SUVs: Sedan ground clearance: The minimum ground clearance of a sedan ranges between 110mm and 150mm. For sedans, a larger ground clearance (over 130mm) generally means better passing performance but poorer high-speed stability. A smaller ground clearance (below 110mm) improves high-speed stability but reduces passing performance. SUV ground clearance: The minimum ground clearance of an SUV typically ranges between 200mm and 250mm. For SUVs, a smaller ground clearance (below 200mm) results in poorer passing performance and a greater focus on road performance, making it more like a city SUV. A larger ground clearance (over 250mm) enhances passing performance and emphasizes off-road capability, making it more like a purely off-road-oriented SUV.

Will the Insurance Company Compensate for a Flooded Car?

Whether the insurance company compensates for a flooded car depends on the specific circumstances. If the vehicle only has third-party liability insurance, the insurance company will not provide compensation. If the vehicle has comprehensive insurance (also known as collision and comprehensive coverage), you can claim compensation from the insurance company, but damages to the engine are generally not covered. If the vehicle has additional flood insurance (also known as water damage coverage), then even damages to the engine can be compensated. Additional Information: No Restarting: Moreover, if the driver forcibly starts the engine after the vehicle has been flooded, causing engine damage, the insurance company will not compensate for the engine repairs, even if the vehicle has comprehensive and flood insurance. In such cases, only the repair costs for other parts of the vehicle (excluding the engine) will be covered. Important Notes: It is important to note that the insurance company only compensates for the original parts of the vehicle. Any additional components installed by the owner will not be covered. Additionally, if the accident is caused by the owner driving without a license, under the influence of alcohol, or overloading the vehicle, the insurance company will not provide any compensation.
