The Audi A5 is relatively prone to scraping the undercarriage. As a coupe model, its body design is inherently low. While driving in urban areas is manageable, traveling on rough rural roads or entering/exiting underground parking garages can easily lead to undercarriage scrapes. It is recommended to install an engine guard plate, but avoid using undercarriage armor, as its primary purpose is corrosion resistance rather than impact protection. The design focus of the Audi A5's cockpit is entirely centered on the driver, with all gauges and the central console integrated together. The dynamic shapes, precise craftsmanship, and refined design of the controls provide both visual appeal and tactile pleasure.

Will passing through a yellow traffic light result in penalty points?

Passing through a yellow traffic light does not result in penalty points. According to the regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Ordinance: When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may proceed. Below is relevant information about traffic signals: 1. Red light on: Vehicles are prohibited from passing; At intersections without non-motor vehicle signals or pedestrian crossing signals, when the red light is on, right-turning vehicles may proceed provided they do not hinder the passage of released vehicles or pedestrians. 2. Green light on: Vehicles are permitted to pass, but turning vehicles must not hinder the passage of released straight-going vehicles or pedestrians. 3. Yellow light on: Vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed.

What brand is Doublestar tire?

DoubleStar tire is a brand of Double Star. The tire size is 215/50R17. DoubleStar is a well-known brand of Double Star tires, initially established in 1996. It is a state-owned rubber enterprise with decades of history and a domestic brand with nearly a century of history. It is a state-owned enterprise listed on the GEM in the Shandong tire industry. When using DoubleStar tires in daily life, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, and other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallow. If the tread is worn flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-skid functions, significantly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks can be hidden dangers for tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles from the grooves. Try to park on flat ground. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials related to rubber deterioration. After parking, the driver should not turn the steering wheel, as this will accelerate tire wear. Do not splash water for cooling. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and the air pressure increases. In such cases, stop to dissipate heat. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool down, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent use of brakes and emergency braking to prevent accelerated tread wear due to dragging between the tire and the ground.

Why is a China V diesel vehicle suddenly consuming more fuel?

The reasons for a sudden increase in fuel consumption in a China V diesel vehicle are as follows: 1. Insufficient tire pressure or aging tires: When tire pressure is too low, the contact area between the tires and the ground increases, leading to higher rolling resistance and increased fuel consumption. 2. Clogged air filter: The air filter may be obstructed, reducing airflow and causing the engine to consume more fuel. 3. Cylinder wear or air leakage: This results in low cylinder pressure, poor combustion efficiency, and higher fuel consumption. 4. Fuel injector issues: If the fuel injector pressure is inadequate, it can lead to poor diesel atomization. 5. Incorrect diesel grade: Using a diesel grade unsuitable for the seasonal temperature changes can also cause increased fuel consumption.

Where is the TU5JP4 engine produced?

The engine model TU5JP4 is a star engine under the French PSA Group. The TU5JP4 engine has a maximum horsepower of 117 hp, a maximum power of 86 kW, and a maximum torque of 150 N·m. For the TU5JP4 engine, the following maintenance methods can be used in daily operation: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD to SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, CB to CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the bypass valve, allowing contaminants to return to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures proper engine operation but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Do 4S Dealerships Fill Up the Tank When You Buy a New Car?

4S dealerships typically do not fill up the tank when delivering a new car. Vehicles usually come from the factory with a small amount of fuel, just enough for the owner to drive from the dealership to a nearby gas station. 4S dealerships are not obligated to refuel the car, and for transportation convenience, new cars generally do not come with much fuel. For a new car, it is best to fill up to the first click of the fuel nozzle during the first refueling, which means about 80-90% full. This helps verify whether the fuel gauge is functioning properly. Car Refueling Tips: Refuel promptly: Both new and older cars need to be refueled promptly. Since the fuel pump generates heat during operation, insufficient fuel may prevent the pump from cooling properly, accelerating wear and tear. Therefore, it is advisable to refuel when the tank is about one-quarter full. Fuel quality: When refueling, choose gas stations with good fuel quality, preferably state-owned ones. Some private gas stations might use substandard fuel to maximize profits, which could damage the vehicle. Fuel grade: Pay attention to the fuel grade when refueling. For example, a car that requires 95-octane gasoline should be filled with 95-octane fuel—never compromise on this. The recommended fuel grade is usually indicated on the fuel cap. Although a 95-octane car can run on 92-octane fuel, prolonged use may harm the engine. Fuel level: Avoid overfilling the tank just to reduce trips to the gas station. Generally, filling up to the first click of the nozzle is sufficient, which corresponds to about 80-90% full. This ensures enough space in the tank for gasoline vapors to expand. Time of day: It is best to refuel in the early morning or evening when temperatures are lower, reducing gasoline evaporation and minimizing waste.
