The differences between the Avalon 2.0 and 2.5 are as follows: 1. The biggest difference between the Avalon 2.0 and 2.5 lies in the engine and transmission. The Avalon 2.5L is equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine paired with an Aisin 8-speed automatic transmission, while the Avalon 2.0L uses a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine mated to a CVT transmission. 2. Additionally, their fuel consumption and prices differ. The Avalon 2.0 has a combined fuel consumption of 5.8L/100km as per the MIIT, while the Avalon 2.5 has a combined fuel consumption of 6.2L/100km. 3. There are also configuration differences, mainly in some details. The 2.5L version of the Avalon has certain advantages in terms of features, while the 2.0L version only has slight advantages in the Carlife function and automatic mirror folding when locking the car, but these advantages are not significant. Additional Information: 1. The Avalon 2.5 gasoline engine further improves thermal efficiency to 40% through optimized valve pipelines and a dual-injection mode, making it a highly energy-efficient engine. Due to its fuel-economy-oriented design, it is not as 'aggressive' as turbocharged engines in terms of power, with smoothness being its most notable characteristic. 2. Apart from the significant differences in powertrain between the 2.0L and 2.5L fuel versions of the Avalon, there are also configuration differences, mainly in some details. The 2.5L version has certain advantages in features, such as paddle shifters, driving mode selection, and adaptive suspension, which are quite practical. The 2.0L version only has slight advantages in the Carlife function and automatic mirror folding when locking the car, but these advantages are not as prominent as those mentioned above.

How to Clean the Three-Way Catalytic Converter of a Heavy Truck?

The cleaning method for the three-way catalytic converter of a heavy truck is the intravenous drip method. This method involves connecting a plastic hose to the engine's vacuum solenoid valve and using the air pressure in the hollow tube to draw the cleaning agent from the infusion bottle into the engine. As the cleaning agent is expelled through the exhaust pipe, it cleans the three-way catalytic converter. Modern vehicles are all equipped with three-way catalytic converters. Only vehicles produced in earlier years that did not meet the National II emission standards lack a three-way catalytic converter. Composition of the Three-Way Catalytic Converter: The three-way catalytic converter generally consists of four parts: the shell, damping layer, substrate, and catalyst coating. The shell is made of stainless steel to prevent oxide scale from falling off, which could clog the substrate. The damping layer is composed of padding or wire mesh pads, which serve to seal, insulate, and secure the substrate. To protect the substrate from damage due to vibration, thermal deformation, and other factors, the padding is made of expanded mica and aluminum silicate fibers, bonded together with adhesive. The substrate is made of honeycomb-shaped ceramic material, though many also use metal (including stainless steel) materials. The catalyst consists of precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium, which are sprayed onto the substrate to form the purifying agent.

Why Does the Car Horn Sound Change?

During rainy weather, it is easy for the horn to get wet from rainwater, leading to damage. When the horn does not sound, common fault locations are usually the horn itself, the horn switch contacts, or the horn wiring harness. The reasons for a change in horn sound are as follows: 1. Horn switch contacts: Sometimes, the horn switch does not activate. If the horn sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t, most of the time, the contacts inside the horn switch are not making good contact, and sometimes the issue lies with the horn itself. 2. Poor plug connection: A hoarse or distorted sound is mainly caused by poor plug connections, especially around the steering wheel where various contacts are frequently used and prone to wear. 3. Check the fuse: First, check if the fuse is blown. Then, unplug the horn and use a multimeter to measure whether there is power when the horn switch is pressed. If there is no power, inspect the horn wiring harness and relay; if there is power, the issue is with the horn itself.

Is it necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection after the vehicle wades through water?

If the vehicle can continue to drive after wading through water, it is not necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection. However, you can go to a 4S shop for inspection for the safety of the car. The following is a detailed introduction about car safety: 1. Overview: Car safety is mainly divided into active safety and passive safety. Active safety is to control the car as freely as possible. Whether braking and accelerating in a straight line or turning left and right, it should be as smooth as possible, without deviating from the established route, and without affecting the driver's vision and comfort. 2. Others: The scope of car safety technology is becoming wider and more detailed, and it is developing in the direction of integration, intelligence, systematization, and full participation. Strictly controlling the speed during night driving is the fundamental measure to ensure safety.

What does 38km/h mean?

38km/h means 38 kilometers per hour. Below are specific details about gear shifting: 1. Gears: Start in first gear, then shift to second gear after driving a few meters. Shift to third gear when the speed reaches above 20 mph but below 35 mph, shift to fourth gear when the speed reaches above 35 mph but below 45 mph, and shift to fifth gear when the speed exceeds 45 mph. 2. Precautions: While shifting gears, the clutch and throttle must be coordinated properly. Press the clutch pedal all the way down, then release the throttle pedal, and quickly shift to the corresponding gear. After shifting, immediately release your hand from the gear lever to avoid prolonged contact, which can easily damage the gear lever.

What's the matter with the coolant bypass valve start open circuit?

You can replace the water pump assembly. The water seal is prone to aging and water ingress, which can easily cause motor damage and lead to the bypass valve start open circuit. If the valve body is not damaged, you can replace the small electric water pump connected to the coolant booster. Precautions for using automotive coolant: 1. Correct use of coolant: It can prevent corrosion, cavitation leakage, radiator boiling, scale formation, and freezing, keeping the cooling system in optimal working condition and ensuring the engine operates at normal temperature. 2. Note: If not used properly, it will seriously affect the normal performance and lifespan of the engine. 3. Continuity of coolant use: The idea of only using it in winter is wrong, as it only considers the antifreeze function of the coolant while neglecting its anti-corrosion, anti-boiling, and anti-scale effects.

What is the reason for one car door not responding to the remote control?

The failure of one car door in the central locking system is mostly caused by a damaged door lock motor or a short circuit in the wiring. It could also be due to a malfunction in the mechanical transmission device. Here is some additional information: 1. Introduction: The central locking system, also known as central control door locks, is increasingly installed in many vehicles to enhance convenience and driving safety. 2. Advantages: The wireless remote control of the car central locking system allows for remote unlocking and locking without inserting the key into the lock. Its greatest advantage is the ability to conveniently unlock (open) and lock (close) the doors from a distance, regardless of day or night, without needing to locate the lock hole.
