It is recommended that car owners visit a 4S dealership to have the staff perform the relevant operations to enable digital tire pressure, tire pressure initialization, and standard tire pressure values. The digital tire pressure feature is already equipped in 2017 models, while the 2015 MKZ models without this feature can have it unlocked through programming. Features such as auto-lock while driving, auto-unlock, re-lock, and lock feedback can also be enabled through programming. More details are as follows: 1. Meaning of hidden features: Some functions that manufacturers selectively reduce are actually supported by the hardware but are hidden or disabled at the software configuration level. These hidden or disabled features can be enabled using specialized equipment, provided they do not affect the car's other functions, warranty, or driving condition. 2. Purpose of unlocking hidden features: Unlocking hidden features can significantly enhance the vehicle's functionality. After upgrading with hidden features, it is advisable to shorten the vehicle's maintenance cycle. Since increased power and performance upgrades will inevitably challenge the vehicle's original hardware conditions, it is essential to strengthen brake system adjustments and engine maintenance during routine servicing. This ensures driving safety and maximizes the engine's lifespan.

What does the SYNC button on the car's air conditioner mean?

SYNC refers to the synchronization button of the dual-zone automatic air conditioning system, and its operation is very simple. Pressing the SYNC button ensures that the air outlets on both sides of the car maintain the same temperature and adjust synchronously. When the air conditioner is turned on, if the temperatures on both sides are set differently, the SYNC function will automatically deactivate. Below are the functions of SYNC: The SYNC button cancels the temperature synchronization between the two sides, allowing independent temperature control for each side. This creates a dual-zone effect where the left side can blow warm air while the right side blows cool air. Whenever the temperatures on both sides differ, the SYNC button will light up. Pressing SYNC again at this point will immediately synchronize the passenger side temperature with the driver's side temperature. If you then adjust the passenger side temperature knob to change the temperature, the SYNC button will light up again. In other words, the passenger side temperature will follow the driver's side temperature changes, but the driver's side temperature will not be affected by adjustments made to the passenger side temperature.

What does TDI mean?

TDI stands for Turbocharged Direct Injection diesel engine. To address the shortcomings of naturally aspirated diesel engines, a turbocharging device is added to the diesel engine, significantly increasing the intake pressure and compression ratio, which allows for greater torque generation, more complete combustion, and stronger power output. Below are the relevant details: 1. Definition of Turbocharged Direct Injection diesel engine: A Turbocharged Direct Injection diesel engine is a diesel engine equipped with a turbocharging device, which greatly increases the intake pressure, with the compression ratio generally exceeding 10. This enables the engine to achieve high torque at very low speeds, and due to more complete combustion, the harmful particulate content in emissions is significantly reduced. 2. Function of the turbocharger: The turbocharger helps the engine increase air intake, making combustion in the cylinders more intense, thereby increasing the energy of piston movement and the overall power output of the engine. 3. Components of the turbocharger: The main body of a typical turbocharger consists of the turbine housing, turbine wheel, and compressor wheel. The auxiliary systems include an integrated electronically controlled wastegate, bypass valve assembly, dual cooling system, and intercooler assembly.

Hidden Functions of Changan Eado Key

Eado key has the following hidden functions and their detailed explanations: 1. Window shutdown function: Changan Eado can still operate the windows within one minute after turning off the engine without re-powering. 2. Unlock only the driver's door: Press both the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously to unlock only the driver's door. 3. Companion light: This function can be used as lighting. 4. Vehicle locator function: Press the lock button twice in succession, and the Eado will honk twice and flash the hazard lights several times, allowing you to locate the car by sound and light. 5. Auto-relock after accidental unlock: If unlocked accidentally, the car will automatically relock within one minute as long as no door is opened. 6. Emergency braking hazard light warning on highways: During emergency braking at high speed, the Eado will automatically activate the hazard lights to alert vehicles behind. 7. Turn signal failure reminder: When a turn signal fails, the sound will change from the usual "tick-tock" to "beep-beep-beep".

What brand is the audio system in the Baojun 730?

The Baojun 730 audio system does not have a specific brand. How to choose car audio: When purchasing audio equipment, consider the amplifier capability of the head unit. Try to choose an amplifier with power output greater than the speaker's indicated power. If the amplifier is too small and operates at high power output for extended periods, it can easily burn out and may cause poor sound quality, distortion, and other issues. When selecting audio equipment, test the sound quality and tonal effects. It's best to use a few representative CDs with various music genres (such as vocal tracks, instrumental pieces, and percussion) to evaluate the purity of the sound effects before making a purchase decision. Does car audio modification affect annual vehicle inspection? Annual inspections only check water, electricity (lights, etc.), and oil systems - other modifications are not inspected. Additionally, modifying audio systems is not illegal. The Road Traffic Safety Law regulates modifications that affect vehicle power (such as engine or transmission modifications), and audio systems are not included in these restrictions.

Is 4motion a Full-time Four-Wheel Drive System?

4motion is a full-time four-wheel drive system. It can distribute torque between the front and rear axles as needed, with a normal torque distribution ratio of 95:5 between the front and rear axles. This mere 5% allows the 4motion system to be classified as a full-time four-wheel drive. Below are the relevant details: 1. Definition of the 4motion system: The 4motion system is officially designated as 'intelligent full-time four-wheel drive.' 4motion is a trademark of Volkswagen's four-wheel drive technology, and the 4motion system is also the full-time four-wheel drive system commonly used in Volkswagen vehicles. 2. Performance of 4motion: The central differential of 4motion is a multi-plate clutch type, so its four-wheel drive performance is somewhat inferior, and its reliability is significantly lower than that of purely mechanical systems. However, 4motion is more suitable for transverse platforms, has a low manufacturing cost, and a high degree of electronic control. 3. Principle of 4motion: It achieves frictional braking by compressing the clutch plates, thereby distributing power to the axle on the non-slipping side.

What Causes Difficulty in Restarting After Engine Shutdown?

Difficulty in restarting after engine shutdown may be due to the key or switch failing to engage the starting circuit due to wear; it could also be because the starter relay is not connecting to the starter solenoid switch circuit, or the main circuit is not being engaged by the power switch. Below are some related explanations: 1. Circuit Short: A short circuit can also prevent the engine from starting. This might occur if there was a pre-existing break in the car's wiring that caused a short circuit due to road vibrations. A short circuit could blow a fuse or even damage the engine control unit. 2. Clogged Air Filter: If the air filter is clogged, outside air must pass through the air cleaner in the carbon canister to enter the cylinders. If this passage is blocked, as the fuel level in the tank decreases, the vacuum inside the tank increases, causing the tank to deform under the combined pressure of external atmospheric pressure and internal vacuum. This can cause the bottom of the fuel tank to press against the fuel pump strainer. When attempting to restart the engine after a hot shutdown, the partial blockage of the fuel pump strainer inlet and the reduced air inside can make starting difficult.
