Turbocharged vehicles may produce abnormal noise during rapid acceleration due to the following reasons: 1. Excessive cam wear causing tappet jumping during operation. 2. Excessive valve clearance due to wear or improper adjustment of the valve stem end and adjusting screw or rocker arm, leading to impact between the rocker arm head and valve top in overhead valves. 3. Excessive carbon buildup in the valve guide. 4. Detachment of the valve spring seat. 5. Damage to the hydraulic tappet or tappet barrel. Additional information: 1. Piston slap noise refers to the abnormal sound produced when the piston side impacts the cylinder wall. Generally, when the direction of axial force on the piston top changes from the compression stroke to the power stroke, piston slap noise occurs. 2. Knocking sound: As the engine temperature rises, the piston clearance decreases accordingly, and the knocking sound will also diminish.

Can Expired Fuel Additives Still Be Used?

Expired fuel additives cannot be used. The functions of fuel additives include: 1. Removing carbon deposits from the car; 2. Reducing abnormal wear of the engine; 3. Improving atomization efficiency; 4. Lowering vehicle emissions; 5. Extending the service life of the car engine. The correct way to use fuel additives is: add the fuel additive before refueling, then add gasoline. This allows the previously added fuel additive to mix fully and evenly under the impact of gasoline injection, achieving the desired effect. Precautions for using fuel additives include: 1. Pay attention to purchasing branded fuel additives and avoid using those recommended by repair shops indiscriminately; 2. Do not rush to use fuel additives in new cars; 3. Do not rely solely on fuel additives to clean engine carbon deposits; driving habits should also be taken into consideration.

What is the zero-to-whole ratio of Mercedes-Benz?

It varies by model. The zero-to-whole ratio for the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is 823.59%. This means that the cost of selling all the parts of a disassembled Mercedes-Benz C-Class is equivalent to the price of more than eight new cars, far exceeding the market average of 350.93%. The zero-to-whole ratio refers to the price difference between the whole vehicle and its parts. For example, a ratio of 1:3 means the cost of assembling a car from original parts is three times the price of the whole vehicle. The higher the zero-to-whole ratio, the higher the maintenance costs. In China, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class has the highest ratio at 1:13, leading to exorbitant repair costs—minor repairs can be financially draining, while major repairs can be devastating. This makes it a classic case of a car that is affordable to buy but unaffordable to maintain.

Can New Energy Electric Vehicles Be Charged at Home?

New energy electric vehicles can be charged at home. There are mainly two methods for home charging of new energy vehicles: one is using the Pluggu home AC charging pile, and the other is directly using the Pluggu home portable charging gun. Below is an introduction to these two charging methods: 1. The Pluggu home AC charging pile is further divided into pillar-type charging piles and wall-mounted charging piles. The most fundamental difference between the two lies in their installation and usage scenarios. Pillar-type charging piles are mostly installed in outdoor parking lots, occupying a relatively large area but offering strong applicability; wall-mounted charging piles are mostly installed in indoor parking spaces against walls, occupying less space but with more stringent usage requirements. 2. The Pluggu home portable charging gun can be directly plugged into a 220V 16A household power outlet. After passing the automatic safety detection of the charging gun, it can be inserted into the electric vehicle for charging without the need for additional installation of a charging pile. The entire charging process is also very simple and convenient.

Should a Car with Auto Start-Stop Use Neutral Gear at Red Lights?

Cars with auto start-stop do not need to use neutral gear at red lights. Here is an introduction to auto start-stop: 1. Engine Start-Stop Principle: The working principle of engine start-stop is quite simple. It involves embedding an enhanced motor with idle start-stop functionality into a traditional engine, allowing the engine to completely shut off when the car meets idle stop conditions. When the vehicle needs to start moving again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's start command, rapidly restarting the engine for seamless transition. 2. Power Source: The power for shifting gears in an automatic transmission comes from the transmission oil pump, and maintaining the gear also requires continuous oil pressure from the pump. When the engine is off, the oil pump no longer provides pressure, making it impossible to maintain the gear. Therefore, start-stop system transmissions include an additional electric oil pump. When the engine is off and the main transmission oil pump cannot provide pressure, the electric oil pump supplies the necessary pressure to keep the transmission in gear.

What to Do When There's a Crack in the Windshield?

Here are the ways to deal with a cracked windshield: First, check the location of the damage. Repairs are only possible if the damage is in the whitish area of the glass; if it's in the black dotted or adhesive areas, repair is unnecessary. Second, assess the extent of the damage. If there are spreading cracks within the main line of sight, it's recommended to replace the glass directly. If there are no spreading cracks and the damage is minimal, repair is possible. If there are spreading cracks but they are outside the main line of sight and extend less than 10 centimeters, drilling and injecting adhesive to stop the crack is an option. Additional Information: Generally, star-shaped and linear cracks in the windshield can be repaired, provided they are small in area. This can help conceal the damage to some extent, but perfection is unattainable, and some flaws will remain. Moreover, cracks reduce the glass's performance and cannot be fully restored. This is important to note. If possible, replacing the glass is the best option.
