What Causes Car Shaking at Idle?

Why is the inside of the windshield icing up?

Icing on the inside of the car's windshield occurs because the vehicle's defrost function is not activated. To eliminate the ice on the windshield, simply turn on the defrost function. To activate the defrost function, first start the engine and then power up the vehicle's entire electronic system. The specific steps are as follows: 1. Open the driver's side door of the car. 2. Depress the car's brake pedal to prepare for starting the engine. 3. Press the car's one-touch start button. 4. All dashboard lights will illuminate, indicating that the engine has started. 5. Press the defrost button on the center console (a button shaped like a fan) to activate the car's defrost function.

Can a dent in the fender be pulled out?

When there is a dent in the fender, it can be pulled out using an electric suction cup. Here are the relevant steps: 1. Operation steps: First, place the electric suction cup on the dented area of the fender and secure it, then pull it out forcefully. 2. Precautions: Before using the electric suction cup, you can apply the principle of plastic softening when heated by pouring hot water over the dented area. This will improve the efficiency of the dent repair. Finally, after the dent is restored to its original shape, use cold water to cool it down, which helps with contraction and recovery. 3. Professional repair: For those who are not handy with DIY repairs, it is best to leave it to a 4S shop or a nearby auto repair shop. After the repair, the car will undergo bodywork and repainting, ensuring a high-quality repair effect.

Should You Use External or Internal Air Circulation When Sleeping in the Car?

When sleeping in the car, it is recommended to use external air circulation. The function of external circulation is to replenish fresh air and maintain airflow between the inside and outside of the vehicle, ensuring clean air inside the cabin. Internal circulation, on the other hand, effectively prevents external dust and harmful gases from entering the car, and it provides faster cooling or heating effects. The differences between external and internal circulation are: 1. Circulation Method: External circulation heats or cools the air from outside the car before sending it inside, facilitating gas exchange between the interior and exterior. Internal circulation recirculates the air inside the car after heating or cooling it. 2. Symbols: The external circulation icon depicts an unenclosed car with an arrow pointing from outside to inside, while the internal circulation icon shows a closed car with a circular arrow inside.

How to Check if a Car Meets China 6 Emission Standards When Buying?

Methods to determine a vehicle's emission standards: 1. Vehicle Conformity Certificate: When purchasing a car, be sure to ask the salesperson for the vehicle's relevant documents and certificates. The Vehicle Conformity Certificate clearly states the vehicle's emission standards. Although it may not explicitly mention whether it's China 5 or China 6, the emission standard can be clearly determined from this information. 2. Environmental Information Vehicle List: As the name suggests, this document details the vehicle's environmental impact, including its exhaust emission standards. It directly and clearly indicates the emission stage of the vehicle—whether it's China 5 or China 6. 3. Vehicle Qualification Certificate: The vehicle's relevant qualification certificates will clearly specify the emission standards.

Start the Engine First, or Press the Clutch First, or Pull the Handbrake First?

Before starting the engine, you should first press the clutch and then the brake. Here are the relevant details: 1. When driving a manual transmission vehicle, many people believe that the clutch should be pressed before braking to cut off the car's power. This method is only suitable for driving tests. In actual driving, pressing the clutch before braking is a major mistake, especially in emergency situations, as it increases the risk. 2. During emergency braking, if the clutch is pressed first, the engine speed will drop rapidly, reducing the total vacuum in the intake manifold. Under these conditions, the assistance provided by the vacuum booster will significantly decrease, resulting in a longer braking distance. 3. In emergency braking situations, you should first press the brake. Only when the speed drops to near a stop should you press the clutch. It is also important to develop this habit during regular driving to prevent unexpected situations.
