What is the tire size for the Audi Q5?

The Q5 comes with two tire sizes: 235/55R19 and 255/45R20. In 235/55R19, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 55 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width, and 19 denotes the rim diameter is 19 inches. The middle letter "R" stands for radial tire. In 255/45R20, the first number 255 represents the tire width of 255MM, 45 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 45%, meaning the section height is 45% of the width, and 20 denotes the rim diameter is 20 inches. The middle letter "R" stands for radial tire. The Q5 uses Continental tires, and the spare tire is a non-full-size one. If you want to replace the tire yourself, you can follow these steps: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the vehicle frame near the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack contacts the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be positioned under the vehicle, and check to ensure the jack is perpendicular to the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not fully loosen the nuts, just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts turn instead of the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose. Repeat this step for all lug nuts and remove them completely; Place the new tire on the hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and tighten them by hand until all nuts are snug. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. Besides the size, tires also have the following common markings: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, ZG for steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: Indicates the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as "Standard rim 5.00F".

Why does it take more than 10 minutes for the car air conditioning to cool down?

The reasons for slow cooling of car air conditioning are as follows: 1. Poor heat dissipation: In most cases, the intermittent shutdown of the air conditioning system is caused by poor heat dissipation. Clean and inspect the heat sink. 2. Temperature sensor issue: It might be a problem with the temperature sensor. There is a temperature sensor inside the air conditioning evaporator box. When the sensor detects that the temperature of the evaporator box is too low, it terminates the operation of the air conditioning compressor. Therefore, check if the temperature sensor is damaged. 3. Ice blockage: There is water in the air conditioning system. The water freezes and blocks the pipeline after the air conditioning cools for a while. When the temperature rises, the ice melts and the cooling starts again, repeating this cycle, resulting in intermittent cooling.

How Many Points for Drunk Driving?

Drunk driving results in a 12-point deduction, while driving under severe intoxication leads to immediate revocation of the driver's license with a 5-year ban on reapplying. Relevant details: 1. Breathalyzer test: The breathalyzer test is not included in the determination of severe intoxication. According to the standards for criminal evidence collection, drivers suspected of severe intoxication must undergo blood tests for evidence. The alcohol monitoring device data during drunk driving checks only serves as preliminary judgment by traffic police. A conclusive determination is made by comparing the suspect's blood alcohol content. 2. Legal provisions: According to Article 91 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, driving a motor vehicle after drinking alcohol will result in a six-month suspension of the motor vehicle driver's license and a fine. If penalized for drunk driving and caught again, the offender faces up to 10 days of detention, a fine, and revocation of the motor vehicle driver's license. For severe intoxication while driving, the traffic management department of the public security authority will restrain the individual until sober, revoke the motor vehicle driver's license, pursue criminal liability according to law, and impose a five-year ban on reapplying for a motor vehicle driver's license.
