What Are the Causes of Oil Burning in Audi Cars?

Here are the reasons for oil burning in Audi cars: 1. Most car manufacturers design their engine crankcases with positive pressure, meaning they appropriately control the exhaust of internal engine gases, maintaining a certain pressure inside the crankcase. However, Audi's engines are designed with negative pressure, creating a vacuum state inside the crankcase during engine operation. Excessive crankcase exhaust gases enter the engine's intake system. While expelling these gases, some atomized engine oil in the crankcase also enters the intake manifold along with the exhaust gases, leading to significant engine oil consumption. This is one of the main reasons for oil burning in Audi cars. 2. Due to the discrepancy between domestic fuel quality and international standards, a large amount of carbon deposits easily forms in the combustion chamber during engine operation. Carbon deposits are the root cause of various engine problems. They accumulate in the piston grooves, causing the piston rings to stick together. This prevents the piston rings from sealing completely, significantly reducing their oil-scraping and sealing capabilities. Additionally, sludge can clog the oil return holes, preventing normal oil return and increasing oil consumption, which leads to the phenomenon of oil burning in Audi cars.

Are the engine guard plate and chassis armor the same thing?

Engine guard plates and chassis armor are not the same thing. The engine guard plate is a small protective plate located under the engine oil pan, while chassis armor is sprayed over the entire vehicle chassis to prevent rust. The engine is the device that provides power to the car, determining its performance, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. The chassis serves to support and install the car engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the vehicle's body shape, receiving the engine's power to enable movement and maintain normal driving. Methods for maintaining the chassis include: 1. Regularly inspecting the condition of the car tires; 2. Periodically cleaning and wiping the car chassis; 3. Promptly checking the operation of various components during driving; 4. Regularly servicing the car's shock absorbers.

How to Transfer a Driver's License to Another Location?

The method for transferring a driver's license to another location is for the driver to bring their identity proof, driver's license, relevant documents, and photos to the local vehicle management office to apply. The local vehicle management office will verify the information online and process the transfer. The required procedures for transferring a driver's license to another location are: 1. Bring the original ID card and one copy of the ID card; 2. Two recent one-inch color photos without a hat; 3. Fill out the motor vehicle driver's license application form; 4. Submit the original driver's license and file for approval by the business leadership post, and the clerk will unseal and review whether the materials are complete and valid; 5. After online verification and passing the road driving test, the transfer procedures will be processed; 6. Retain the motor vehicle driver's license application form, motor vehicle driver's license registration item form, and motor vehicle driver transfer notice in the original driver's license file.

What does Skoda EPC mean?

EPC stands for Electronic-Power-Control in English, which means engine power electronic regulation (electronic throttle), commonly found in Volkswagen series models. The illumination of the EPC indicator light indicates a fault within the electronic throttle system, and the fault affects the normal use of the vehicle. The relevant introduction to EPC faults is as follows: Causes of EPC faults: The cause of the fault is a malfunction in the sensor or control unit of the electronic stability system. After this fault light comes on, the motor vehicle cannot be driven, and the electronic throttle needs to be cleaned to resolve the related issues. Solutions for EPC faults: The EPC on motor vehicles is the engine electronic power control system. When the EPC indicator light comes on, it is necessary to contact after-sales service or a repair shop to inspect and repair the vehicle.

What are the penalties for speeding between 20% and 50%?

Speeding between 20% and 50% will result in a 6-point deduction and a fine ranging from 20 to 200 RMB. Additional information regarding speeding penalties includes the following: 1. If the speed exceeds the limit by less than 10%, a warning will be issued. 2. On roads with a speed limit below 50 km/h, exceeding the speed limit by 10% to 20% will result in a 50 RMB fine; exceeding by 20% to 50% will result in a 100 RMB fine. 3. Exceeding the speed limit by 50% to 70% will result in a 300 RMB fine; exceeding by 70% or more will result in a 500 RMB fine. 4. On roads with a speed limit between 50 km/h and 80 km/h, exceeding the speed limit by 10% to 20% will result in a 100 RMB fine.

Should I use S gear or D gear on the highway?

On the highway, use D gear for normal driving and S gear for overtaking. The reasons are as follows: 1. D gear is the Drive forward gear. It is suitable for all situations except special road conditions like long downhill slopes, so it is also suitable for highway driving. Moreover, using D gear on the highway has benefits because the transmission control module (TCM) has a set of imprecise reasoning theory strategies. It will optimize the transmission according to the driving conditions of the vehicle, somewhat like the learning function of artificial intelligence. Unlike the stop-and-go conditions in urban areas, highway conditions are better. The vehicle operates more efficiently under these conditions. Therefore, the shifting logic of D gear will also be "smarter" in a sense. 2. Using S gear on the highway consumes more fuel. If you use S gear on the highway, you won't get this effect. Because S gear is the Sport mode, it is another set of shifting logic in the transmission control module (TCM) and does not affect the daily use of D gear. If you want to clean carbon deposits on the highway, you can also use S gear. Because in S gear, when the engine runs at high speed, the throttle opening will be larger, and the intake will be faster, which can remove some carbon deposits that are not firmly attached to the inner wall of the intake pipe.

What does it mean when the car's warning light comes on?

Reasons for the engine warning light to illuminate: 1. Poor combustion state. 2. Engine knocking. 3. Poor fuel quality. 4. Dirty engine cylinder interior with accumulated carbon deposits. 5. The computer cannot obtain engine data. Hazards of the engine warning light being on: 1. Deterioration of vehicle exhaust quality, polluting the environment. 2. Increased fuel consumption, wasting petroleum and financial resources. 3. Increased combustion chamber temperature and accelerated wear, potentially leading to early engine damage. 4. Engine oil burning. 5. Increased engine noise, affecting driving and passenger comfort.
