Symptoms of a clogged car carbon canister include: 1. A strong gasoline smell inside the car, as gasoline vapors leak directly into the air through damaged pipes, which can lead to an overly diluted fuel mixture, requiring pipe repairs; 2. When opening the fuel tank cap after the car has been exposed to the sun, a large amount of gas is ejected from the tank opening; 3. After prolonged driving, the fuel tank may bulge or the fuel gauge may become inaccurate. The car carbon canister is usually installed between the fuel tank and the engine. Since gasoline is a volatile liquid, the fuel tank often contains vapors at room temperature. The fuel evaporation emission control system is designed to direct these vapors into the combustion process and prevent them from evaporating into the atmosphere, with the activated carbon canister storage device playing a crucial role in this process.

What does AFS system failure mean?

AFS failure warning light indicates a malfunction in the automatic adjustment system of the headlight beam direction, causing the "AFS OFF" indicator on the instrument cluster to flash. It is recommended to visit a 4S shop or repair shop for diagnosis. Below are relevant details: 1. AFS: The Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS) adjusts the headlight beam direction according to current driving conditions. This system moves the headlight beam left or right based on vehicle speed and steering wheel angle. It works in conjunction with the automatic headlight beam direction adjustment system to enhance visibility at intersections and during turns. 2. Precautions: Avoid modifying your headlights casually as this may trigger fault codes and affect normal headlight operation. During routine maintenance, have technicians use diagnostic tools to read fault codes so you can promptly identify any vehicle issues.

What are the symptoms of a faulty EGR valve in a B12 engine?

The most obvious symptom of a faulty EGR valve is that it causes the engine's idle to become extremely unstable, or even stall. The EGR valve is a component of the exhaust gas recirculation control system. When the EGR valve is faulty, symptoms may include extremely unstable idle or stalling, flashing check engine light, failure to meet emission standards during annual inspection, burning oil, and blue smoke from the exhaust. Below is additional information: 1. EGR Valve: The EGR valve is an electromechanical product installed on diesel engines to control the amount of exhaust gas recirculated back into the intake system. It is usually located on the right side of the intake manifold, near the throttle body, and is connected to the exhaust manifold via a short metal pipe. 2. Function: Its role is to control the amount of exhaust gas entering the intake manifold, allowing a certain amount of exhaust gas to flow into the intake manifold for recirculation. The EGR valve is a very important and critical component in the exhaust gas recirculation system, used to reduce the emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the exhaust.
