Engine noise when pressing the accelerator is mainly caused by excessive clearance in components like the drive shaft, poor lubrication, or improper assembly during maintenance, which generates friction noise under high torque output. Typically, when the engine is first started, the engine oil temperature hasn't reached its normal operating value, resulting in viscosity unsuitable for the hydraulic lifter's normal operation. This reduces the hydraulic lifter's sealing performance, leading to noise. Below are solutions for engine noise when accelerating: 1. Fully depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, turn off the engine, and then contact for assistance. 2. When starting the engine, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal all the way down; it's better to keep it slightly above the idle throttle position.

Does Battery Aging Affect Vehicle Performance?

Insufficient battery power has minimal impact on a vehicle's performance, but it significantly affects the starting process. When the battery charge drops below half, the car becomes difficult to start, leading to greater power consumption. Automotive batteries typically lose about 1% of their charge daily, with this figure rising to 2-3% when equipped with anti-theft alarms. Below are extended details about the impacts of insufficient battery power: Causes unstable engine idling; Reduces actual fuel injection volume; Weakens ignition energy; Prevents deactivation of anti-theft alerts; Locks the audio system; Causes malfunctions in related systems.
