The yellow engine light in a Porsche Cayenne indicates a fault in the engine. Generally, when a warning light illuminates on the instrument panel, it signifies an abnormality in the corresponding component. Below are the relevant explanations: 1. Damaged Engine Oxygen Sensor: There are many reasons why the engine warning light may illuminate, one of which could be a damaged oxygen sensor. The vehicle's onboard computer uses the oxygen sensor to monitor the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gases. Based on the information transmitted by the sensor, it controls the engine's fuel injection quantity and adjusts the air-fuel ratio. If the oxygen sensor is damaged, the onboard computer cannot receive the transmitted information, causing the engine warning light to illuminate. 2. Damaged Air Flow Sensor: Another possible cause is a damaged air flow sensor. If the air flow sensor is damaged, the onboard computer cannot detect the intake air volume information, which will naturally cause the engine warning light to illuminate and also affect the engine's normal operation.

What license plate does BYD DM-i use?

BYD DM-i uses a green license plate. BYD DM-i: Essentially, DM-i is a combination of range extension and direct drive. At medium and low speeds, the generator first converts fuel into electricity, which is then used to power the electric motor. Any excess electricity is stored in the battery. Benefits of electric motor drive: The internal combustion engine always operates at high-efficiency RPM, maintaining thermal efficiency at its theoretical peak. Generating electricity first and then using it to drive the electric motor results in a transmission efficiency (based on BYD's hardware setup) that is higher than most transmissions, except for dry dual-clutch transmissions. This includes AT transmissions, CVT transmissions, and some wet dual-clutch transmissions. The energy loss in automatic transmissions is much greater than commonly perceived.

What is the transmission brand of the Hyundai Custo?

The transmission brand of the Hyundai Custo is Mobis. The classification of automotive transmissions: Divided into manual and automatic types. Manual transmissions mainly consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque variation through different gear combinations. Automatic transmissions (AT) are composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque variation through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations. Introduction to transmissions: A transmission is essentially a gearbox containing numerous gears. The driving gear (connected to the engine via the clutch) receives power from the engine to drive the driven gear (connected to the wheels via the final drive and drive shaft), thereby propelling the wheels. Each gear has a pair of driving gears, and engaging a specific gear means that particular pair of gears is combined to transmit power.

Why is the warm air hot on one side and cold on the other?

The reasons for warm air being hot on one side and cold on the other: 1. Temperature settings are uneven; 2. The hot-cold knob is not adjusted correctly; 3. Insufficient or excessive refrigerant; 4. Clogged heater valve; 5. Damaged intake motor; 6. Malfunction in the air conditioning computer, causing failure in controlling the hot-cold pipe valve; 7. Low compressor power, abnormal high and low pressure. The car air conditioning system mainly consists of a compressor, electronically controlled clutch, condenser, evaporator, expansion valve, receiver-drier, pipes, condenser fan, vacuum solenoid valve, idle speed controller, and control system. These components are connected by copper or aluminum pipes and high-pressure rubber hoses to form a sealed system.
