Acura is the premium sub-brand of Japanese automaker Honda, established in the United States in 1986. The name Acura derives from the Latin word 'Accuracy', with its logo featuring a caliper used in engineering measurements, reflecting the brand's exquisite craftsmanship and pursuit of perfection. Acura officially unveiled the new ILX model at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show. Below are more details about the new Acura ILX: 1. The new vehicle adopts Acura's latest design language, featuring a striking pentagonal diamond grille and LED headlights with the Jewel-Eye system that excel in both illumination and aesthetics. The fog light area below is the most significant change compared to the previous model. The side and rear of the vehicle remain largely unchanged, except for the updated 17-inch blackened alloy wheels, LED taillights, and single exhaust outlet. 2. Notably, the new model introduces an A-Spec variant, which features more dark chrome accents on the front grille, blackened fog lights, headlights, and taillights, complemented by a glossy black spoiler and 18-inch alloy wheels. The A-Spec interior includes exclusive elements such as a graphite silver instrument panel, a stitched steering wheel, A-Spec badges, aluminum sport pedals, and red leather seats. 3. The new ILX retains the current 2.4L engine, delivering 150kW (203PS) and 244N·m of torque, paired with an 8-speed DCT transmission.

How often should car air conditioning refrigerant be recharged?

Car air conditioning refrigerant should be recharged every three years, but it is recommended to check the refrigerant level annually. Methods to determine whether refrigerant needs to be added: 1. Thermometer measurement: Use a thermometer to measure the temperature difference between the air inlet and outlet of the indoor unit. A difference of more than 8°C is normal—the greater the difference, the better the air conditioner's performance, with optimal differences reaching around 15°C. If the difference is below 8°C, refrigerant needs to be added. 2. Check for condensation: After running the air conditioner for about ten minutes, open the indoor unit panel and check the evaporator copper tubes covered with aluminum fins for heat exchange. A uniform distribution of condensation is normal—more condensation indicates higher humidity, while less indicates lower humidity. If condensation is uneven or only partially present, it may indicate a refrigerant shortage. Localized frosting or icing is also abnormal.

How to Operate the Brake Pedal After Driving Through Water

After driving through water, maintain low-speed operation and use the method of intermittently lightly pressing the brake pedal repeatedly to generate heat through friction between the brake drum and brake pads, thereby evaporating and draining the moisture. Pre-water measures before driving through water: 1. Unplug the motor wire connector, hang the wire ends at a higher position, and close the radiator shutter; 2. Wrap the distributor, high-voltage wires, and ignition coil with waterproof cloth or plastic bags, and raise the position of the battery; 3. Find a flexible hose to cover the end of the exhaust pipe and bend it upward above the water surface to prevent water from entering the exhaust pipe; 4. Wrap and block the fuel tank filler port, oil dipstick hole, and ventilation holes on the engine and drive axle with waterproof materials; 5. Increase the vehicle's weight as much as possible to reduce the buoyancy effect of water on the car and enhance wheel traction, ensuring stability while driving through water.

Does a Noisy Tensioner Pulley Damage the Car?

A noisy tensioner pulley can damage the car and affect its normal operation. Here are the reasons for a noisy tensioner pulley: 1. Aging or damage to the internal bearings. In severe cases, the tensioner pulley may completely fail to function. 2. Damage to the tensioner pulley can cause timing belt misalignment, leading to ignition and valve timing disorders, engine shaking, difficulty starting, and even valve deformation upon starting. 3. If the generator belt tensioner pulley is damaged, the vehicle's generator may not work properly, and power steering may become ineffective. Below is additional information about the tensioner pulley: 1. The tensioner pulley is located on the engine's timing belt or timing chain, providing guidance and tension to both. 2. During the operation of the timing belt or timing chain, the camshaft drives the valves to open and close at the correct time, coordinating with the piston to complete the four processes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust.

Where is the VIN number located on the Wuling Hongguang S?

The VIN number of the Wuling Hongguang S is located under the front passenger seat. Lift the seat to find it. The VIN number, also known as the vehicle identification number, serves as the car's ID and cannot be altered. There are several locations on the vehicle where the VIN can be found, as described below: 1. Engine compartment: There is usually a metal vehicle identification plate fixed to the frame inside the engine compartment, which displays the VIN. 2. B-pillar body plate: Another body plate is typically located on the B-pillar on the front passenger side. This plate is usually not metal but a sticker affixed to the B-pillar. 3. Lower left corner of the windshield: Most vehicles have the VIN displayed in the lower left corner of the windshield. 4. Frame-stamped VIN: The location of the stamped VIN varies by brand and model and may require some time to locate.

How to Remove the Spark Plugs on a Hyundai Verna?

Steps for replacing the spark plugs on a Hyundai Verna: Open the hood, lift the plastic engine cover, remove the high-voltage ignition wires, and mark each cylinder's position to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. While removing them, check for any external debris like leaves or dust and ensure they are thoroughly cleaned. Place the new spark plugs into the spark plug holes, hand-tighten them a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten them further. Reinstall the high-voltage ignition wires in the correct firing order, then secure the cover. Damaged spark plugs can directly cause issues such as electrical leakage in the ignition system, increased fuel consumption, reduced power, and most notably, difficulty starting the vehicle, affecting its normal operation. Severe spark plug erosion—indicated by pitting, damage, or melted electrodes—means the spark plugs are ruined and should be replaced.

What Causes the High and Low Pressure of a Car's Air Conditioning to Be Equally High?

The reason for the high and low pressure of a car's air conditioning being equally high is insufficient refrigerant (Freon) in the AC lines or excessive addition of refrigerant oil, leading to a shortage of refrigerant. Here are the troubleshooting methods for car air conditioning: 1. Release excess refrigerant. 2. Replace the receiver-drier. 3. Perform a thorough vacuum and refill with refrigerant. 4. Clean or replace the condenser, and inspect the fan motor and its circuit. Compressor maintenance includes the following methods: 1. Check if the refrigerant is sufficient, measure the temperature difference between the inlet and outlet pipes of the drier, and inspect using a manifold pressure gauge. 2. Clean the air vents and remove dust and dirt inside the cabin. 3. Check if the refrigerant level in the AC system is normal. 4. Inspect the condition of the compressor belt.
