Engine Knock: First scenario: The car lacks power. Second scenario: The car lacks power, and the engine noise is excessively loud. Third scenario: There is an obvious knocking sound from the engine. In the first scenario, some engine malfunction lights may illuminate, while others may not. In the second and third scenarios, the engine malfunction light will inevitably illuminate.

Are Hybrid Electric Vehicles Considered New Energy Vehicles?

Hybrid electric vehicles are classified as new energy vehicles. Here is some additional information: 1. New energy vehicles include hybrid vehicles, pure electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, hydrogen engine vehicles, as well as gas-powered vehicles and alcohol ether vehicles. Hybrid electric vehicles combine fuel and electric power, utilizing an electric motor as an auxiliary power source to drive the vehicle, representing a technology that leverages complementary advantages. 2. The primary power source of hybrid electric vehicles is the engine, supplemented by a secondary power source, the battery. The combination of these two sources enhances energy efficiency. The electric motor assisting the engine can generate strong and smooth power during normal driving. During acceleration or startup, the assistance from the electric motor helps reduce fuel consumption.

What is the function of the central differential?

The function of the central differential is: when the car turns or drives on uneven roads, it allows the left and right wheels to roll at different speeds, ensuring that both driving wheels perform rolling motion. It is a device designed to adjust the speed difference between the left and right wheels. Automotive differentials are classified into gear-type differentials and anti-slip differentials based on their working characteristics. The types of differentials include: gear-type, anti-slip type, double-worm type, central type, LSD type, and Torsen differential. The automotive differential is a mechanism that enables the left/right or upper/lower drive wheels to rotate at different speeds, consisting of left/right half-shaft gears, planetary gears, and a gear carrier.

What is the size of Continental tires?

Continental tire size is 13mm for the front tread thickness and 5mm for the sidewall thickness. The following are details about tires: Load index range: The load index of tires ranges from 70 to 109, representing the maximum load capacity from 335 to 1030kg. Exceeding the tire's maximum load capacity will not cause immediate damage, but prolonged overload operation can lead to tire fatigue, shorten the tire's service life, and in severe cases, may result in a blowout. Method to check tire model: The tire model can generally be found on the tire sidewall, where there is a string of numbers, such as 185/65R15, which represents the model.

What Causes a Car Cigarette Lighter to Have No Power?

The reasons for a car cigarette lighter having no power are: 1. The fuse is blown; 2. The lighter's plug is loose. The method to use a cigarette lighter is: Press the lighter down to connect the current on the lighter socket, heating the heating wire at the front end until it glows red. Once the temperature is reached, the lighter will automatically pop out, and the red-hot heating wire at the front can then be used to light a cigarette. Besides lighting cigarettes, a car cigarette lighter can also be equipped with a car inverter, converting the car's 12V, 24V, or 48V DC power into 220V 50Hz AC power for use with ordinary electrical appliances.
