Engine oil, three filters (oil filter, fuel filter, air filter), cabin air filter, brake pads, tires, front and rear bumpers, bulbs, etc. Below is relevant information about vehicle accessories: 1. Introduction to the three filters: The three filters refer to the oil filter, fuel filter, and air filter, which are responsible for filtering the medium in the lubrication system, combustion system, and engine intake system, respectively. 2. Precautions for purchasing vehicle accessories: (1) Check the packaging. Genuine parts usually have standardized packaging with uniform specifications and clear, regular printing, while counterfeit products often have poor-quality packaging that can easily reveal flaws. (2) Check the color. Some genuine parts are specified to have a certain color on the surface; if other colors are found, they are likely counterfeit or inferior parts. (3) Inspect the appearance. Genuine parts have clear and regular printing, casting, or markings, whereas counterfeit products often have rough appearances.

I've been driving a private car for over a decade and have replaced many common accessories. Here's some daily experience to share. Wiper blades are the most basic - replace them when visibility gets blurry in rain, preferably annually. Always keep an air filter handy; a dirty one affects AC performance and cabin air quality. I check mine every 5,000 km - breathing feels easier after replacement. Regular oil filter changes are crucial to protect the engine from wear; replacing it along with engine oil extends vehicle lifespan. Tires wear fast, so always carry a spare or new tire, and check the spare's air pressure to prevent leaks. I also keep a first-aid kit and fire extinguisher in my car - safety first for emergencies. Small parts like bulbs and brake pads are frequently used too; DIY replacement is simple and cost-effective. Fellow drivers, don't slack off - regular maintenance makes your car last longer.

Can Home Audio Systems Be Installed in Cars?

Home audio systems can be installed in cars. The differences between home audio and car audio systems are introduced as follows: Different References: Home audio systems refer to audio equipment specifically configured for movie playback, with a minimum configuration of 5.1, decoding Dolby and DTS to achieve surround sound. Car audio systems refer to the audio systems installed inside vehicles. Different Characteristics: Home audio systems have a higher starting configuration. A 2.0 system can suffice for home karaoke and CD music systems. Home theater audio involves many aspects, including amplifiers, speakers, speaker layout, and acoustic environment treatment, all of which affect sound quality. The most basic requirement for car audio systems is the ability to reproduce sound. Their anti-interference technology involves using choke coils connected between the power supply and the audio system to filter out noise interference from the power lines, thereby reducing external noise interference.

What Causes the Engine Oil Light to Illuminate When Braking?

There are two main reasons why the engine oil light illuminates when braking. First, insufficient engine oil: when braking causes the engine speed to drop, the oil pressure may fail to meet requirements, triggering the oil warning light. Second, the use of inferior engine oil with inadequate viscosity can also cause the oil light to activate during braking. It's crucial to determine whether this is a genuine or false alarm. Below are methods to differentiate between the two: 1. Genuine Alarm: Indicates actual low oil pressure below design specifications. Causes: Low oil level; Blockages in the lubrication circuit; Clogged oil pan filter screen; Substandard oil filter; Malfunctioning oil pump; Turbocharger pressure leakage; Incorrect oil viscosity selection (too low for manufacturer specifications) or water contamination in the oil. 2. False Alarm: Occurs despite normal oil pressure. Causes: Faulty oil pressure sensor; Wiring issues connected to the sensor.

What is the purpose of installing a car exhaust tip?

In addition to preventing deformation of the car's exhaust pipe, the car exhaust tip also has functions such as increasing pressure and creating turbulence. The following are details about car exhaust tips: Introduction to exhaust tip material classification: There are two types of materials for muffler decorative exhaust tips: stainless steel and galvanized. The stainless steel material is smooth as a mirror, with excellent craftsmanship, and feels substantial when held. Additionally, it is resistant to deformation, does not retain fingerprints, and has superior corrosion resistance, hence it is priced higher. Functions of car exhaust tips: Besides preventing deformation of the car's exhaust pipe, the muffler decorative exhaust tip also serves to increase pressure and create turbulence. It can also reduce the noise emitted by the exhaust pipe to some extent, making the sound slightly softer and more pleasant.

What to Do When the Traction Control Off Indicator Light Is On?

The reason the traction control off indicator light is on indicates the working status of the vehicle's TCS (Traction Control System). When this light is illuminated, it means the TCS system has been deactivated. The main reasons for the traction control light on the car dashboard being on are: 1. Fuel system malfunctions causing reduced fuel injection, such as clogged injectors, low fuel pressure, or impurities in the gasoline. Inaccurate air measurement, leading to a discrepancy between the detected air intake and the actual air intake. 2. If the detected air intake is lower than the actual air intake, the PCM-calculated fuel injection will be less than the actual demand, causing the oxygen sensor feedback signal to indicate a lean condition. The PCM then increases the fuel injection, leading to a higher positive fuel trim value. Inaccurate closed-loop feedback signals, such as a faulty oxygen sensor.

How Many Times Can 2 Liters of Windshield Washer Fluid Be Used?

2 liters of windshield washer fluid is typically the amount in one bottle. The number of times it can be used mainly depends on the frequency of the car owner's usage and is also related to the driving environment of the vehicle. In areas with poor environments, car owners tend to use more windshield washer fluid. Below is some information about windshield washer fluid: The surfactants in windshield washer fluid usually have functions such as wetting, penetrating, and solubilizing, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning and removing dirt. Due to the presence of alcohol and ethylene glycol, the freezing point of the liquid can be significantly lowered, providing antifreeze effects and quickly dissolving frost. Additional information: 1. After using windshield washer fluid, a single-molecule protective layer forms on the glass surface. This protective film can prevent the formation of fog droplets, ensuring the windshield remains clear and transparent for better visibility. 2. After cleaning, the substances adsorbed on the glass surface can eliminate the charge on the glass surface, providing anti-static properties. The ethylene glycol in the windshield washer fluid has a high viscosity, which can lubricate and reduce friction between the wiper and the glass, preventing scratches.
