Engine power output refers to how quickly the engine performs work, representing the increase or decrease in displacement. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. High power: Faster acceleration, stronger performance, easier overtaking, convenient active selection of road conditions. When the vehicle ahead is slow, follow it, and once a safe opportunity is spotted, decisively overtake in an instant, then increase the distance and maintain a constant speed, which is conducive to safe driving. 2. Low power: Poor vehicle power, difficult overtaking, taking a long time to overtake, often driving side by side with other vehicles for an extended period during the overtaking process. 3. Maximum power: Generally expressed in horsepower (PS) or kilowatts (kW), where 1 horsepower equals 0.735 kilowatts.

Why does the steering wheel of the Lingdong make noise?

The reasons for the noise in the Lingdong steering wheel are as follows: 1. The problem of steering noise in the Lingdong steering wheel may be due to a large gap in the steering gear rack and pinion, or it could be a large gap in the universal transmission device. The specific cause needs to be determined by listening to the sound. This noise may also be related to the pressure bearing of the shock absorber. The damage to the pressure bearing is mainly related to driving habits. 2. In future driving, you should pay attention to the following points: avoid turning the steering wheel while the vehicle is stationary, and try to steer after the vehicle starts moving. When the vehicle is parked, the steering wheel should be returned to the center position to avoid putting load on the suspension system and tires. When making a U-turn, try to avoid turning the steering wheel to the limit position. It is recommended to go to a 4S shop for inspection to confirm the cause of the fault and eliminate it in time.

What Does It Mean When the Engine Malfunction Light Is On?

There are mainly 7 reasons why the engine malfunction light is on: Sensor failure: The sensors mentioned here include coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which will trigger the engine malfunction light. Fuel quality issues: If fuel and engine oil are not added as required by the manufacturer, it may cause engine wear and trigger the malfunction light. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can lead to engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the malfunction light will illuminate as a warning. Issues such as spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, or fuel line blockage can all cause poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Turbocharger issues: The intake boost pipes and turbocharger can also cause the engine malfunction light to come on. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leaks, excessive oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, or blue/black smoke from the exhaust. Intake problems: If the car's intake system has issues, it may lead to engine pipe blockages, and in severe cases, trigger the engine malfunction light. A dirty air filter that hasn't been cleaned regularly can cause intake problems. Exhaust problems: Exhaust system failures can also trigger the engine malfunction light. Common causes include rear oxygen sensor failure, catalytic converter issues, exhaust camshaft and bearing failures, with the catalytic converter being the most frequent culprit. Using leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or engine fuel supply system failures can all easily lead to catalytic converter problems. Anti-theft system failure: If the car's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions or the anti-theft controller doesn't match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally, and the engine malfunction light will illuminate. If the engine malfunction light is on, follow these steps: First, check if the engine is running normally, and look for issues such as shaking or black smoke. If present, avoid restarting the engine. Note: Never restart the engine if the red warning light is on. If the engine can be started, turn it off and wait 5-10 minutes. Without pressing the brake, press the start button once or turn the key halfway to the 'on' position without depressing the clutch. The car will perform a self-check after powering on. Wait 5-10 seconds and observe if the malfunction light on the dashboard turns off. If the light remains on, visit a service station as soon as possible. The service station can use a portable diagnostic tool to read the fault codes, identify the issue, and perform targeted repairs.
