When car lights become yellowed, you can use sandpaper to polish the lights and then apply specialized wax for further polishing. Below is relevant information about car lights: 1. Headlights: The primary purpose of headlights is to illuminate the road and objects ahead, ensuring driving safety. They can also be used to signal overtaking at night by alternating between high and low beams. Headlights are installed on both sides of the front of the car, with 2 or 4 per vehicle. The bulb power ranges from 45~60W for high beams to 25~55W for low beams. 2. Fog lights: Fog lights are installed near or slightly lower than the headlights. They are used in low-visibility conditions such as fog, snow, heavy rain, or dust to illuminate the road and signal to oncoming traffic. The lights are mostly yellow because yellow light has longer wavelengths and better fog-penetrating properties. The bulb power is generally 35W. 3. Reverse lights: Reverse lights are installed at the rear of the car to illuminate the road behind and inform other vehicles and pedestrians that the car is reversing or preparing to reverse. They also function as light signal devices. The lights are white with a power of 28W.

What Causes the Loud Engine Roaring Sound When Accelerating in the Outlander?

The reasons for the loud engine roaring sound during acceleration include: exhaust pipe leakage, dirty or clogged throttle, and engine misfiring. The specific causes are as follows: 1. Exhaust pipe leakage: When there is a leak in the intake or exhaust pipe, the vehicle's exhaust rate increases during acceleration, resulting in a loud roaring sound. 2. Dirty or clogged throttle: During acceleration, the engine's load increases, requiring the throttle to open wider and more fuel to be injected. If the throttle does not open to the optimal position due to dirt or clogging, it can cause poor air-fuel mixture ratio, leading to noise during acceleration. 3. Engine misfiring: Engine misfiring mainly refers to one or more cylinders not functioning properly, typically manifested as insufficient vehicle power, severe shaking of the exhaust pipe, and a clear "popping" or thumping sound from the engine.
