The reasons for a slightly deflated tire are: 1. Foreign objects puncturing the tire; 2. Poor sealing between the wheel rim edge and the tire contact surface; 3. Damage to the tire valve; 4. Damage to the tire sidewall or inner edge. The functions of a tire are: 1. Transmitting driving force, braking force, and steering force to achieve vehicle operation; 2. Supporting vehicle loads; 3. Reducing and absorbing vibrations and impacts during driving to prevent severe vibrations from damaging vehicle components. Methods for tire maintenance include: 1. Regularly removing stones stuck in tire treads; 2. Minimizing exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Promptly checking tire pressure; 4. Paying attention to suspension maintenance; 5. Regularly inspecting front wheel alignment; 6. Adopting careful driving habits, choosing smooth road surfaces, and avoiding objects that could puncture or scratch tires, as well as chemical spills that may corrode tires.

What Does Tire Specification Indicate?

Tire specification indicates the width, aspect ratio, type of the tire, and the applicable size of the tire. Taking the tire specification 185/60R14 as an example, 185 indicates that the width of the tire is 185mm, 60 indicates that the percentage of the tire's section height to its width is 60%, which is the aspect ratio of the tire, R stands for radial tire, and 14 indicates that the rim diameter is 14 inches. Tires with a larger aspect ratio will have better comfort and lower noise, while tires with a smaller aspect ratio will have poorer comfort and higher noise. Some tires with a smaller aspect ratio, when passing over speed bumps or uneven road surfaces at higher speeds, are prone to bulging on the sidewalls. Therefore, owners using low-profile tires need to pay attention to reducing speed when encountering speed bumps or low-lying road conditions.

Where is the engine oil dipstick for the Audi A4?

Audi A4 engines do not have a physical oil dipstick. The oil level is displayed electronically. Press the 'car' button and select the oil level under the maintenance menu to check it. The function of an oil dipstick is to measure the static height of the oil level, thereby indicating whether the engine oil volume is within a reasonable range. The Audi A4 offers three engine displacement options: 1.8T, 2.4, and 3.0. The 1.8T comes in four variants: Manual Basic, Automatic Basic, Comfort, and Technology Leading. The 2.4 displacement is available in three variants: Comfort, Comfort Sport, and Comfort Premium. The 3.0 displacement has only one variant, which is equipped with the quattro all-wheel-drive system.

Is Throttle Body Cleaning Necessary?

Throttle body cleaning is necessary. After prolonged use, carbon deposits will accumulate near the air flow valve plate of the throttle body. In severe cases, it can even clog the preset idle air intake opening. These issues can lead to sluggish throttle response, unstable idle speed, or even engine stalling. Therefore, the throttle body needs to be cleaned. Cleaning the throttle body every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometers is sufficient. If the driving conditions are harsh, the cleaning interval should be shortened. However, excessive cleaning can cause premature failure of the throttle body. Frequent cleaning gradually removes the special coating inside the throttle body chamber. Without this coating, the chamber becomes more prone to oil and grime buildup, creating a vicious cycle that ultimately leads to failure.

Can Antifreeze Be Mixed?

Antifreeze cannot be mixed. Although the main components of domestic antifreeze are the same, the additives used by different manufacturers vary. To distinguish between types, various colorants are added, such as light green, green, light blue, dark blue, pink, orange-red, red, etc. If mixed, different additives may undergo chemical reactions, which can have adverse effects on the radiator. Antifreeze should be added between the MAX and MIN indicator lines. Many people think antifreeze is only used in winter, but in fact, it is used year-round. Automotive antifreeze is mainly used in the cooling systems of liquid-cooled engines, offering excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, scale buildup, and corrosion.

What is the Principle of the Rearview Camera System?

The principle of the rearview camera system is based on visual measurement rearview technology. It relies on a camera at the rear of the vehicle to display road condition information behind the car on the central display screen. The driver can move the square representing the vehicle body freely on the screen via the touchscreen. If the position is appropriate, the square will change from red to green. At this point, simply engage the reverse gear and control the vehicle speed to complete automatic reversing. Limitations of the rearview camera system: 1. Ice, snow, or mud covering the camera; 2. Dark environmental lighting; 3. Extreme conditions such as sun glare or headlights from a vehicle behind; 4. Deformation or damage to the rear of the vehicle; 5. Extremely high or low temperatures and significant temperature fluctuations.
