That cross and snake emblem is definitely the symbol of Alfa Romeo. The cross part represents the Red Cross of Milan, symbolizing the protection of this Italian city, while the snake comes from the ancient coat of arms of the Visconti family, representing strength and wisdom. Alfa Romeo was born in 1910 and has always been a legendary brand in the sports car world. When I was a kid, I was fascinated by their Giulia model—its sleek lines and roaring engine are simply iconic. Now they’ve introduced SUVs like the Stelvio, but they still maintain that sporty and passionate core. People who’ve driven them often say the steering is so precise it feels like flying close to the ground. If you spot a cross-and-snake logo on the road, that’s Alfa Romeo flaunting its heritage. There are also plenty of racing stories behind the brand—if you’re interested, you can dig into its history.

Does Turning on the Air Conditioner Affect Turbocharged Engine Performance?

Turning on the air conditioner does have some impact on turbocharged engines. Here are some precautions regarding air conditioner usage: 1. Select the appropriate fan speed: During normal vehicle operation, to prevent excessive frost formation on the evaporator which could affect the air conditioning system's performance, avoid setting the air conditioner's fan speed and temperature control at the lowest settings for extended periods. 2. Adjust habits correctly: Based on the principle that cold air sinks and warm air rises, the correct adjustment method is "when cooling, direct the air vents upward; when heating, direct the air vents downward." 3. Regularly activate the air conditioner in winter: Prolonged disuse of the air conditioner can lead to aging of its rubber seals and drying out of the lubricant on internal components. Regular activation allows the components to be lubricated, maintaining good condition. Therefore, it's advisable to activate the air conditioner every 1 to 3 weeks during winter.

Why is there a gasoline smell outside the car after parking?

After parking, the smell of gasoline outside the car could be due to engine oil seepage, spark plug leakage, or fuel injector leakage. Here are the specific reasons for the gasoline smell outside the car after parking: 1. Engine oil seepage: The gasoline that hasn't been burned is expelled with the exhaust. 2. Spark plug leakage: A malfunction in the spark plug. 3. Fuel injector leakage: Loose or cracked connections at the fuel outlet, return pipe on the fuel tank, or the interface between the fuel pump and fuel pipe. Since these parts are located under the rear seats (or under the trunk carpet), leakage can cause a gasoline smell inside the car. In such cases, immediate inspection and repair are necessary to avoid serious consequences.

What does it mean when the EPC light appears on the dashboard?

The EPC indicator light can illuminate in two scenarios: during the power-on self-test and under other conditions. The power-on self-test is a pre-driving check of all vehicle sensors. Typically, if the vehicle is not started after powering on, the light will turn off by itself after about 3 seconds. If the EPC light remains on after starting the vehicle or illuminates under other circumstances, the common causes include faults in the engine intake system, throttle body, fuel system, engine, ECU control unit, or brake lights. The following are detailed explanations of the reasons for the EPC light illuminating under other conditions: Engine intake system fault: The EPC light will alert if the engine intake is obstructed or insufficient. Throttle body fault: Carbon buildup is a common issue with the throttle body. Additionally, dirt accumulation can affect intake, triggering the indicator light. Fuel system fault: Issues such as substandard fuel, fuel deterioration, or poor fuel atomization. Engine fault: Insufficient engine pressure or problems with the intake valves and other powertrain components can also cause the EPC light to illuminate. ECU control unit fault: For example, interference with the vehicle computer signals or false alarms from the computer. Brake light fault: Situations like non-functioning brake lights, faulty brake switches, or brake circuit issues. Solutions for when the EPC light illuminates: Troubleshoot intake system issues, use fuel with the appropriate octane rating, clean the throttle body, etc. Remove carbon deposits from relevant components. Re-flash ECU-related data. If the EPC light comes on, the owner can first try turning off the engine and restarting it to see if the light remains illuminated. If it does not, there may be no issue, possibly just a temporary influence on the EPC indicator. If the light stays on or frequently illuminates, the vehicle should be taken to the nearest repair facility for professional diagnosis and timely resolution of potential safety hazards. The full English name of EPC is Electronic-Power-Control, which translates directly to electronic power control. Most people refer to it as the engine electronic stability system. The EPC system primarily includes controllers and sensors related to the powertrain. When sensor data in the system is abnormal, the EPC system will take predefined actions to address the powertrain issues. Common EPC indicator lights are typically displayed in two colors: yellow and red. A yellow EPC fault light indicates that the vehicle can still be driven, but it should proceed slowly to a repair point for inspection. A red EPC fault light signifies a more serious issue, and the vehicle should be pulled over immediately, with professional repair services contacted promptly. Continuing to drive under such conditions could severely damage core vehicle components or compromise driving safety.

Why does the Volvo XC60 make a squeaking noise while driving?

Volvo XC60 may produce squeaking noises while driving, which could be due to the sound of the high-pressure fuel pump injecting fuel, chassis noise on bumpy roads, friction between interior panels, engine resonance, or noise caused by debris friction. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Sound from the high-pressure fuel pump: The high-pressure fuel pump may produce a hissing sound during acceleration when the throttle is pressed. Those particularly sensitive to in-car NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) might notice it, though most people won’t. 2. Friction between interior panels: This noise comes from the squeezing or rubbing at the joints of interior components. For example, loose-fitting interior panels can cause squeaks or gap noises, and loose wheel liners may vibrate and produce noise when wind hits them at high speeds. These can be fixed by tightening or applying lubricant. 3. Chassis noise on bumpy roads: This could be due to cracked or hardened bushings on the lower control arms, loose stabilizer links, hardened shock absorber bushings, or issues with the shock absorber core. Lifting the vehicle to inspect these parts is necessary, and cracked or loose components should be replaced. 4. Engine resonance: Vibration from the engine interfering with interior components can cause resonance noise. This might be caused by loose parts in the engine bay, such as worn or aged engine mounts. 5. Noise caused by debris: Items rolling around in storage compartments, glove boxes, or the trunk can produce noise while driving. Simply cleaning these areas can resolve the issue.

How often should the transmission fluid be changed for the Teana?

Nissan Teana's transmission fluid replacement cycle is every 2 years or 60,000 kilometers. There is no strict definition for the transmission fluid replacement cycle, as it needs to be determined based on the specific usage conditions of the vehicle. Transmission fluid refers to the oil product that keeps the transmission system clean and plays a role in protecting the transmission. High-quality transmission fluid can extend the service life of the transmission and also improve its working efficiency. Below are details on maintaining the transmission fluid: 1. Follow proper oil change procedures: During the oil change process, operations must be carried out meticulously, and even small tasks like tightening screws should not be taken lightly. Improperly tightened screws can lead to transmission malfunctions. 2. Use original transmission fluid: Different transmission models may require different types of transmission fluid during oil changes. Generally, using the original transmission fluid is sufficient. 3. Perform regular transmission fluid maintenance: Whether it's a manual or automatic transmission, it is recommended to perform regular transmission fluid maintenance. For manual transmissions, the original gear oil can be replaced every 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. For automatic transmissions, the original transmission fluid can be replaced every 50,000 to 80,000 kilometers.
