Bubbling car paint should not be ignored. Here are the details: 1. Impact: Bubbling affects aesthetics. If left untreated, the topcoat may crack over time, allowing rainwater to seep in, causing internal metal rust and expanding the damaged area, ultimately harming the car body. Therefore, once bubbling is noticed, it should be repaired by professionals at a specialized repair shop or 4S store. If the bubbling area is large, repainting may be necessary. 2. Cause: It might be due to internal rust under the paint, but the primary reason is often moisture trapped beneath the paint surface before it fully dries, followed by hasty painting. The topcoat layer has strong sealing properties, especially with two-component paints that fully react. If moisture is trapped within the paint film, it cannot easily evaporate. Under high temperatures, the underlying moisture expands, causing localized pressure on the topcoat film and resulting in bubbling.

What are the reasons for difficulty in starting a hot engine?

The reasons for difficulty in starting a hot engine are: 1. Damaged carbon canister solenoid valve; 2. Poor quality gasoline; 3. Faulty intake air temperature sensor; 4. Excessive carbon buildup on intake valves, throttle valves, and pistons; 5. Low vehicle battery power. The function of the engine is: to convert the thermal energy of gasoline into mechanical energy by burning and expanding gas in a sealed cylinder, thereby pushing the piston to perform work. Engine maintenance methods: 1. Use qualified engine oil; 2. Use qualified coolant; 3. Regularly clean the radiator scale; 4. Regularly remove carbon deposits from the engine; 5. Replace the vehicle's air filter, oil filter, and fuel filter on time; 6. Check if the spark plugs are damaged.

What are the reasons for the engine warning light to come on?

The reasons for the engine warning light to come on are: 1. Sensor failure causing the car's ECU to inaccurately obtain engine data; 2. Carbon buildup in the throttle and engine; 3. Faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel pump; 4. Clogged fuel lines leading to incomplete combustion of the air-fuel mixture; 5. Blocked intake valves. Methods to address the engine warning light include: 1. Remove the positive and negative battery terminals, wait for 20 seconds, and then reattach them; 2. Replace spark plugs or ignition coils; 3. Replace the air filter and clean the throttle and fuel lines; 4. Change the engine oil; 5. Clean carbon deposits from the engine.

What are the precautions for generator disassembly?

Generator disassembly precautions are: 1. The battery ground cable must be removed before disconnecting the generator and regulator wiring harness; 2. A puller must be used when removing generator bearings; 3. The generator pulley, fan, and front cover do not need to be removed from the rotor shaft; 4. When disassembling the rectifier and terminal posts on the rear cover, all insulating bushings and washers must not be lost. Engine types can be categorized based on different conditions: 1. By power source, divided into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid systems; 2. By intake system, divided into naturally aspirated, turbocharged, mechanically supercharged, and twin-charged.

Where is the child lock?

Child lock is located below the rear door lock. The operation method is: 1. Open the small toggle safety mechanism below the rear door lock; 2. Toggle it to the end with the child icon; 3. Close the door, at this time the door cannot be opened from inside, only from outside. The function of child lock is: When there are children in the rear seats, it can prevent children from opening the door during driving, thus avoiding danger. There are two types of child locks: rotary knob type and toggle type. The rotary knob type child lock requires inserting a key into the corresponding hole to rotate the knob switch for locking and unlocking operations, which is more complex than the toggle type child lock.
