Tokico is a shock absorber brand under Hitachi. Here is some relevant information about shock absorbers: 1. Introduction: A shock absorber (Absorber) is used to suppress the oscillation from spring rebound after absorbing shocks and impacts from the road surface. It is widely used in automobiles to accelerate the attenuation of frame and body vibrations, thereby improving ride comfort. When driving on uneven roads, although the suspension spring can filter road vibrations, the spring itself still undergoes reciprocating motion, and the shock absorber is designed to suppress this spring bounce. 2. Working principle: Most shock absorbers used in automotive suspension systems are hydraulic shock absorbers. Their working principle involves the piston moving up and down inside the shock absorber when relative motion occurs between the frame (or body) and the axle. This causes the oil in the shock absorber chamber to repeatedly flow from one chamber to another through different orifices.

What does the exclamation mark next to the fuel tank mean?

There are five possible scenarios when an exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard: general malfunction, automatic transmission failure, brake system failure, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting malfunction. Below is a detailed analysis of these five situations: General malfunction: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates a malfunction in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the problem. Automatic transmission failure: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission failure warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or that the transmission fluid is below the normal range. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Brake system failure: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle represents a brake system warning, indicating either a malfunction in the brake system or low brake fluid levels. Immediate inspection of the brake system is required to avoid accidents. Abnormal tire pressure: A horizontal line with parentheses and an exclamation mark below represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting malfunction: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting malfunction indicator, signaling a fault in one of the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.

What are the symptoms of a bad spark plug?

Symptoms of a bad spark plug: 1. Reduced power: When a car's spark plug becomes excessively clogged, it affects the resistance efficiency, leading to insufficient spark plug power; 2. Difficulty starting the car: After the spark plug is damaged, it becomes difficult to coordinate with other parts of the car, making it hard to start the vehicle; 3. Increased fuel consumption: When the spark plug is damaged, the car's ignition system is also affected, resulting in higher fuel consumption. The replacement interval for spark plugs is generally between 20,000 to 100,000 kilometers, varying depending on the material of the spark plug. Ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs should be replaced approximately every 30,000 kilometers, while better iridium or platinum spark plugs can last 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers before needing replacement.

What Does Engine Braking Mean?

Engine braking refers to the braking effect on the drive wheels generated by lifting the accelerator pedal without depressing the clutch, utilizing the compression resistance, internal friction, and intake/exhaust resistance produced during the engine's compression stroke. Essentially, it means driving in gear without applying throttle, where the engine provides no traction to the vehicle. Instead, the rotation of the wheels drives the transmission system, and the idling engine generates a counteracting resistance on the vehicle. The higher the gear, the lesser the engine's effect on the vehicle, and vice versa. Engine braking is the process where the wheels overcome the engine's resistance to brake. Once the engine's passive speed reaches a certain threshold, it stops fuel injection, achieving fuel-saving purposes. Additionally, engine braking reduces wear on brake pads, extending their service life.

What does the evans logo on the back of the car mean?

The evans logo on the back of the car indicates that the vehicle uses Evans waterless coolant. Cars equipped with Evans waterless coolant typically display an evans logo at the rear. Waterless coolant, also known as waterless cooling oil or automotive cooling oil, eliminates common cooling system issues caused by traditional coolants, such as scale buildup, cavitation, and overheating, thereby extending the engine's lifespan. The main benefits of waterless coolant include: 1. Anti-corrosion: Prevents internal engine rust and protects metal parts in the cooling system from rusting; 2. Faster acceleration: Reduces acceleration distance and ensures smoother gear shifting; 3. Fuel efficiency: Allows the engine to warm up quickly during cold starts, reaching optimal operating temperature faster and reducing startup fuel consumption; 4. Lower emissions: Promotes more complete engine combustion and reduces engine noise.

Can You Still Drive When the Engine Yellow Light Is On?

If the engine yellow light is on but there are no other abnormalities in the car, it is still possible to drive; however, if symptoms such as severe shaking or lack of acceleration occur, it is not recommended to continue driving. Continuing to drive may worsen the fault, damage the engine, or cause other malfunctions. There are two scenarios when the engine yellow light is on: 1. When the car's power is turned on, the vehicle performs a self-check. During this time, not only the engine yellow light but also other fault lights will illuminate and then turn off together, which is a normal phenomenon; 2. After the car is started, the engine fault yellow light remains on, which is the ECU indicating that there is a fault in the engine, and this is an abnormal phenomenon.
