Sunroofs do not need tinting. The glass of a sunroof already has UV protection and heat insulation functions. Applying tint film would increase the overall thickness of the glass, potentially causing the sunroof to operate less smoothly. Installed on the roof of a car, a sunroof effectively promotes air circulation inside the vehicle, allowing fresh air to enter. It also provides an open view and meets the needs for mobile photography and videography. Sunroof maintenance methods: 1. Regularly clean the mechanical parts of the sunroof with engine oil or lubricant; 2. Periodically clean around the sliding tracks to prevent the accumulation of sand particles, extending the lifespan of the sunroof's sealing ring; 3. Before opening the sunroof, check for any obstacles on the roof that might hinder the movement of the glass panel.

What Causes Car Water Leakage?

Car water leakage can be caused by: 1. Door leakage: Usually due to aging window waterproof strips or clogged door drainage holes; 2. Sunroof leakage: Mostly caused by blocked sunroof drainage holes; 3. Trunk water accumulation: Generally due to poor sealing of the trunk seal or tail light seal; 4. A drainage hole above the fuel tank cap: The upward-facing fuel tank opening can easily lead to water accumulation in the fuel tank cap. For car water leakage issues, it is recommended to visit a 4S store or a professional auto repair shop for professional handling. While waiting for repairs, you can first clean the accumulated water inside the car using dry towels or water scooping tools, then proceed with fixing the leaking parts.

How to Turn Off the ECO Light on the Car Dashboard?

Method to turn off the ECO light on the car dashboard: Switch the square button below the dashboard brightness adjustment on the left side of the dashboard to the ECO ON interface, then press and hold to turn it off. The working principle of ECO mode is to change the shift timing of the transmission and the sensitivity of the accelerator pedal to adjust the output power of the air conditioning system. ECO can be divided into: 1. Active ECO driving mode: Equipped with a dedicated button, the owner can choose whether to enable it. After enabling, a series of driving settings will change; 2. Passive ECO driving mode: No dedicated button, it only serves as a reminder and guidance function.

Why is the remote control distance of the car key fob short?

The short remote control distance of a car key fob is not only related to the transmitter, battery level of the key, and the car's receiving antenna, but also to obstacles around the car such as trees and walls. Additionally, interference from other signals, such as mobile phone signals, signals emitted by other car keys being used simultaneously, and surrounding WiFi signals, can also affect the range. If you notice that your car's remote key has a significantly reduced range, you can try testing it in a different location. The working principle of a car remote key is that it first emits a weak radio wave from the key, which is received by the car's antenna. The electronic control unit then identifies the signal code, and the system's actuator performs the locking or unlocking action.

What Causes the Antifreeze to Spray Out at High Temperatures?

It is possible that during driving, the high-temperature environment of the engine causes the antifreeze to heat up, reach boiling point, and subsequently overflow. Alternatively, the antifreeze may not be circulating properly due to a malfunctioning thermostat, a non-operational water pump, or a blockage in the coolant circulation system, leading to the antifreeze spraying out. If antifreeze sprays out, it is recommended to pull over and let the engine idle for a while to allow the temperature to gradually decrease. Check if the cooling system is functioning properly and inspect the antifreeze level. Do not turn off the engine immediately, as stopping the cooling fan and coolant circulation will cause the engine to become even hotter. Open the hood to increase airflow and allow the water temperature to drop before removing the radiator cap. Turn it to the first position and wait for the internal steam to escape before fully opening it. Do not add coolant immediately, as boiling water in a sealed container creates pressure. Opening the radiator cap right after boiling can cause the pressurized water to spray out, leading to burns. Afterward, check the radiator hoses for leaks. If the overheating is due to low antifreeze levels, replenish it once the engine temperature has decreased. In emergencies, if antifreeze is unavailable, you can add a small amount of water and proceed to the nearest repair shop for maintenance or replacement.
