What Causes Shaking During Acceleration?

The causes of shaking during acceleration are: 1. Poor fuel delivery: Insufficient fuel supply at low throttle causes uneven operation of engine cylinders, resulting in shaking; 2. Dirty throttle valve: Uneven intake airflow leads to shaking; 3. Broken or burnt high-voltage wires or spark plug failure causing some cylinders to misfire, making engine operation unstable and resulting in shaking. When there is excessive carbon buildup inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold-start injector can be largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, leading to an overly lean air-fuel mixture during cold starts and making it difficult to start. In this situation, the engine can only start easily after the carbon deposits have absorbed enough gasoline to reach saturation. Once started, the gasoline adsorbed on the carbon deposits is drawn into the cylinders by the engine's vacuum suction and burned, making the air-fuel mixture too rich. The fluctuating air-fuel mixture (alternating between lean and rich) causes idle shaking after a cold start.

How to Check the Engine Oil in a BMW 318i?

To check the engine oil in a BMW 318i: Locate the lever in the gap at the front of the car to open the hood, lift the hood, find and secure the support rod in the engine compartment, wait for 3 to 4 minutes to allow the oil to flow back into the oil pan, then pull out the dipstick. Wipe the oil off the dipstick with a tissue or a clean cloth, reinsert the dipstick all the way, and pull it out again. The normal oil level should be within the mesh area between Min and Max. The BMW 318i has a body length of 4643mm, width of 1811mm, height of 1454mm, and a wheelbase of 2810mm. The BMW 318i is equipped with an N46B20 low-power engine with a maximum horsepower of 134.

Bentley founded Bentley Motors Limited with the goal of creating a fast car, a good car, and the most outstanding car in its class, reflecting the founder Mr. Walter Owen Bentley's original pursuit of ultimate excellence in car manufacturing. Meaning of the Bentley emblem: The Bentley emblem design uses simple and smooth lines, with shading and outlining to form a pair of flying wings, resembling an eagle soaring high. The letter 'B' in the middle stands for the first letter of the name Bentley, the founder of Bentley Motors, giving Bentley cars both a regal and noble temperament and serving as a tribute to the designer.

What is the actual measured ground clearance of the new X-Trail?

X-Trail Fashion Edition and Comfort Edition have a ground clearance of 208mm, Leading Edition and Luxury Edition have a ground clearance of 210mm, and Supreme Edition has a ground clearance of 213mm. Minimum Ground Clearance: Minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding wheels) and the supporting plane when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary; it is used to characterize the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as stones and stumps without collision. Impact of Minimum Ground Clearance: It indicates the vehicle's ability to overcome obstacles. The smaller the ground clearance, the worse the ability to overcome obstacles. Sedans generally travel on flat urban roads, so they have smaller ground clearance; off-road vehicles have larger minimum ground clearance to overcome larger obstacles.

What is the difference between using 92 and 95 gasoline in cars?

Here is a detailed introduction to the differences between 92 and 95 gasoline: Composition: 92 gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. Anti-knock performance: 95 gasoline has better anti-knock performance than 92 gasoline. The octane rating of 92 and 95 gasoline represents the fuel's anti-knock performance; the higher the rating, the higher the isooctane content, indicating better anti-knock performance. Compression ratio: 95 gasoline is better suited for engines with higher compression ratios than 92 gasoline. Engines with a compression ratio greater than 9:1 should use gasoline with an octane rating of 90 or higher; engines with a compression ratio greater than 9.5:1 should use 92 or higher; and engines with a compression ratio greater than 10:1 should use 95 or higher octane gasoline.

Is It Normal for the Car Hood to Be Very Hot?

The inner side of the hood lacks heat insulation and noise-reducing materials, so heat will be noticeable. Below are specific details about the functions of the hood: Airflow Guidance: For objects moving at high speeds through the air, the air resistance and turbulence generated around the object directly affect its trajectory and speed. The shape of the hood can effectively adjust the direction of airflow relative to the car's movement and reduce the obstructive forces, minimizing the impact of airflow on the vehicle. Protection of Components: Under the hood are critical components of the car, including the engine, electrical circuits, fuel system, braking system, and transmission system. By enhancing the strength and structure of the hood, it can effectively prevent adverse effects such as impacts, corrosion, rainwater, and electrical interference, ensuring the vehicle operates normally. Aesthetic Function: As a key component of the overall appearance, the hood plays a vital role.

What is the centerline demarcation for one-way traffic lanes?

One-way traffic lane demarcation centerlines are used to separate traffic flows moving in the same direction, typically consisting of white dashed/solid lines or yellow dashed/solid lines. Below is relevant information: 1. Differences: White dashed lines separate same-direction traffic lanes, allowing lane changes or overtaking when safe. White solid lines also separate same-direction lanes but prohibit lane changes. Yellow solid lines separate opposing traffic flows (sometimes same-direction lanes), serving as either boundary lines or centerlines where lane changes are prohibited. Yellow dashed lines can function as either boundary lines or centerlines - when used as boundaries, lane changes are permitted. 2. Road marking distinctions: Two-way two-lane road centerlines (yellow) separate opposing traffic flows while permitting crossing for overtaking or left turns when safe. Lane separation lines (white dashed) divide same-direction traffic flows along lane boundaries, allowing safe lane changes when appropriate.
