Peugeot 408 engine fault light is usually caused by the fuel emission system. When the fault light is on, start and turn off the vehicle three times, then start the vehicle again to observe whether the fault light is still on. If it remains on, it is necessary to promptly check the fault code at a service center. Below is a detailed introduction to the Peugeot 408: 1. Introduction: The Peugeot 408 is a compact car launched by Dongfeng Peugeot on January 25, 2010, equipped with Shenlong's mainstream engines, offering two displacement options: 2.0L and 1.6L. The launch of the Peugeot 408 greatly enriched Dongfeng Peugeot's product line in the 1.6L-2.0L golden displacement market. 2. Model: The maximum power of this CVTS-II engine is 108KW/6000rpm, and the maximum torque is 200N.m/4000rpm, which is basically the same as the current 307's 2.0L engine. While there appear to be no major modifications, the addition of more new technologies to a mature powertrain reflects Dongfeng Peugeot's approach of seeking stability.

What are the pros and cons of aluminum cars?

The advantages of aluminum car bodies are lighter weight and higher strength. The disadvantages are that once a collision occurs, repairs are more difficult and the repair costs are also relatively high. Here is relevant information: 1. Aluminum car bodies are used by many brands, such as Jaguar and Audi. After a collision, aluminum-bodied cars are quite difficult to repair and cost more money to fix. Therefore, if you purchase an aluminum-bodied car, you must be very careful during use. 2. Many high-performance cars and sports cars also use aluminum bodies to reduce the overall weight of the vehicle. However, using aluminum to manufacture car bodies is more expensive, so cars with aluminum bodies are also more costly. There is no visible difference between aluminum-bodied and steel-bodied cars from the outside.

What does understeer mean in driving?

Understeer describes a loss of control during vehicle cornering, technically termed as insufficient steering. Front-wheel-drive vehicles often exhibit this phenomenon when approaching cornering limits. More details about understeer are as follows: 1. From the perspective of vehicle handling and safety, front-wheel-drive cars have their engine and drive shaft center located at the front, with drive wheels being the front pair. During cornering, the front weight shifts forward due to inertia, potentially exceeding the front tires' road adhesion limit, causing insufficient steering - this explains the mechanism of understeer. When experiencing mild understeer, simply easing off the throttle can restore vehicle control. 2. When taking corners at excessive speed, the car's nose may continue straight instead of following steering input. In such cases, releasing the throttle and gently applying brakes will realign the vehicle. If the steering angle is excessive, slight counter-steering can eliminate understeer.

What to Do When the Engine Oil Cap is Leaking?

Engine oil cap leakage is caused by poor sealing of the oil cap gasket, and replacing the gasket can solve the issue. Here is some relevant information: 1. If the engine is leaking oil, it should be repaired immediately. For new cars with oil leaks due to assembly defects, even requesting a replacement of the entire engine assembly may be possible. However, it's important to distinguish between 'seeping' and 'leaking.' Engine oil seepage is not necessarily a fault, but oil leakage is definitely a fault. 2. If oil leakage occurs, it is a more serious issue. Oil leakage will certainly cause a significant loss of engine oil, so the cause should be identified and repaired immediately. Oil seepage mostly involves poor sealing of rubber gaskets, while oil leakage is likely due to direct rupture of the sealing area, such as cylinder block cracking or damage to related components.

How to Adjust Car Audio Sound Effects for the Best Performance?

It depends on personal preference as there is no standard. Adjust the treble, bass, left-right, and front-rear settings according to individual taste. Below is relevant information: 1. The most basic requirement for car audio is the function of sound playback. Car audio mainly consists of three parts: the head unit, speakers, and amplifier. The head unit is the most important component of car audio, just like the human brain—it controls what kind of sound is produced. 2. Car audio operates in a very complex environment, constantly subjected to electromagnetic interference from the car's ignition system and various electrical devices. Especially since all electrical devices in the car share a single battery, interference can also be generated through power lines and other circuits.
