Reasons for Volvo's auto start-stop system pausing operation: When the ambient temperature is below 0°C or above 40°C, or the starter battery temperature is above 55°C or below 5°C, or the engine coolant temperature is below ambient temperature, or the coolant temperature exceeds 100°C. In these cases, wait for the coolant and ambient temperature to rise before restarting the system. When steering wheel is turned at large angles or driving on steep slopes, or when the driver hasn't fastened the seat belt. In these situations, fasten the seat belt and move the vehicle to a level surface before restarting the interface. When the vehicle is started multiple times in a short period, activating the electrical thermal protection function. In this case, an electrical thermal protection reset is required, which can be performed at after-sales service departments. The engine auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (such as at a traffic light) during driving. When it's time to move forward again, the system automatically restarts the engine. Its English name is STOP&START, abbreviated as STT.

What to Do When the Cold Engine Oil Dipstick Exceeds the Upper Limit?

Oil exceeding the upper limit mark indicates an overfill, and a portion needs to be drained. Excess oil can enter the combustion chamber through the gap between the cylinder and piston, burning and forming carbon deposits. Excessive oil increases the stirring resistance of the crankshaft connecting rod, leading to higher fuel consumption. Overfilling the oil can raise internal engine pressure, making it more likely for engine seals to leak oil.

How to Replace the Side Mirror Turn Signal?

First, use pliers to bend a piece of wire into a hook shape for easier assembly later. Then, use a flat-head screwdriver to gently pry open the turn signal from its edge.

How to Replace the Transmission Shift Fork?

The shift fork is a device that pushes the sliding gear. When the driver pushes the gear lever, the gear lever drives the shift fork shaft, and the shift fork shaft drives the shift fork to achieve gear shifting. During gear shifting, the driver needs to push the gear lever forcefully. The V-shaped groove on the shift fork shaft overcomes the resistance of the self-locking steel ball, pushing it out to allow the shift fork shaft to move.

How to Solve Oil Burning Issue in Sixth-Generation Camry?

Confirm whether carbon deposits are causing the piston rings to stick. You can replace them without disassembling the cylinder. If replacing the valve stem seals can solve the oil burning issue, this is a cost-effective method. Check if the cylinder walls and pistons are severely worn. If the gap is too large, an engine overhaul is required, which will significantly reduce the car's value after the repair.
