Off-roading is not the same as SUV. Below are the differences between off-road vehicles and SUVs: 1. Different driving methods: Most SUVs are two-wheel drive vehicles. Only high-end or hardcore SUVs come standard with all-wheel drive systems, mostly using front-wheel-drive-based intelligent all-wheel drive. Due to structural limitations, they cannot transmit more than 50% of the power to the rear axle. Off-road vehicles generally use part-time four-wheel drive with robust locking differentials between the wheels, achieving 100% "rigid" locking. 2. Different body structures: SUVs use a unibody construction, while off-road vehicles use a body-on-frame construction. 3. Different usage purposes: Off-road vehicles are mostly used for military, commercial, and agricultural purposes. SUVs are categorized as family vehicles.

What are the symptoms of a faulty car ignition coil?

The symptoms of a faulty car ignition coil include: 1. Short circuit in the ignition coil winding, which results in too low voltage generated by the ignition coil, causing insufficient ignition energy and faster blackening of the spark plug electrodes; 2. Open circuit or grounding of the ignition coil, leading to no high voltage generation and failure to ignite; 3. Surface discharge of the ignition coil, where discharge sparks appear on the outer surface of the ignition coil; 4. The gasoline-air mixture in the cylinder fails to ignite and is expelled through the exhaust pipe. The causes of a faulty car ignition coil are: 1. Excessive gap between the spark plug electrodes; 2. Engine overheating; 3. Open circuit in the high-voltage wire; 4. Heat effect generated by current; 5. Poor quality gasoline; 6. Incorrect cylinder compression ratio; 7. Program failure in the computer board.
