Vehicle exhaust emission standards in China comply with the National IV standard. Below are the harmful substances in vehicle exhaust and their hazards: Harmful substances in vehicle exhaust: Vehicle exhaust contains hundreds of different compounds, including pollutants such as particulate matter, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, lead, and sulfur oxides. Hazards of vehicle exhaust: While directly endangering human health, exhaust emissions also have profound impacts on the environment. Sulfur dioxide in exhaust has a strong irritating odor and, when reaching certain concentrations, can easily lead to "acid rain," causing soil and water acidification and affecting the growth of crops and forests.

What is the difference between BYD e-series and Dynasty series?

Here are the differences between BYD e-network and Dynasty network: Different definitions: Direct stores generally refer to terminal retail stores directly contracted with the headquarters, while BYD's direct stores are established by BYD subsidiaries themselves. On the other hand, 4S stores are automobile sales institutions invested and constructed by dealers, built by individual investors, and belong to private enterprises. Different service scopes: BYD's direct stores usually only provide vehicle sales services, while 4S stores offer services including vehicle sales, spare parts, after-sales service, and information feedback. Simply put, BYD direct stores only sell cars, and consumers can only go to 4S stores for maintenance and repairs after purchasing a vehicle. Different operational risks: 4S stores typically purchase vehicles in bulk from the manufacturer with their own funds first, and then sell them to recover costs after the vehicles arrive at the store. This method carries significant inventory risks. If certain models cannot be sold, leading to inventory accumulation and capital chain breakage, the 4S store owner may face bankruptcy or flee. In contrast, direct stores have the support of the manufacturer as a backer, reducing the risk of bankruptcy.

What is the base sequence number for license plate lottery?

The meaning of the base sequence number for license plate lottery is: Applicants participate in the lottery through assigned numbers, and what gets drawn is the base sequence number. Each applicant corresponds to one number and one or more base sequence numbers, with the latter increasing as the waiting time for the lottery extends. The lottery pool randomly selects based on these base sequence numbers. Simply put, the more base sequence numbers a person has, the higher their chance of being selected. The base sequence numbers are assigned on the 25th of the lottery month by staff under the notarization of public notaries, following specific rules for codes that have passed review. These numbers form the lottery pool code data file, which is then burned onto a disc and sealed, to be used in the lottery on the 26th. Specific allocation rules: First, all approved codes for the current period are assigned sequence numbers in ascending order; then, codes in the second tier and above continue to be assigned sequence numbers in ascending order, appended to the previous list; finally, codes in the third tier and above continue this process, and so on.

What is the maximum wading depth of the Subaru Outback?

According to official information, the maximum wading depth of the Subaru Outback is 70 cm. Common tire specifications are 225/60R18, with a body length of 4880mm, a vehicle weight of 1671-1687kg, and a body structure of a 5-door, 5-seat SUV crossover. The maximum wading depth refers to the deepest water a vehicle can safely pass through. Generally, the maximum wading depth for sedans does not exceed 30 cm, while SUVs have a higher wading depth, but it is still best not to exceed 50 cm. Among common models, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a maximum wading depth of 30 cm, the Audi A4 has 32 cm, the Volkswagen Sagitar has 30 cm, the Land Rover Range Rover has 90 cm, the Jeep Compass has 48 cm, and the Highlander has 45 cm. The maximum wading depth of SUVs is significantly higher than that of sedans. Generally, when driving through water, vehicle owners should take different measures depending on the water depth and the vehicle's characteristics, as follows: If the water reaches the height of the exhaust pipe, it is relatively safe. Even if water enters the exhaust pipe, the pressure inside is sufficient to expel the water, as long as the engine is not turned off in the water, preventing water from flowing back into the vehicle. If the water reaches the height of the door frame, it is more dangerous. The vehicle's circuits, electronic components, and sensors are mostly located at the bottom of the car, which could lead to circuit failure, damaging critical electrical components and preventing the car from starting normally. If the water reaches the height of the air intake pipe, it becomes extremely dangerous. Driving directly into such water could cause the vehicle to stall immediately, leading to permanent engine damage or rendering it unusable.

What Causes the ABS Light to Illuminate in a Skoda Rapid?

ABS light illumination can occur in various states, with different causes and solutions for each state, as detailed below: State 1: ABS warning light remains constantly illuminated (most common). Cause 1: The ABS wheel speed sensor's sensing area is covered by dirt, mud, or other contaminants, affecting its ability to detect the corresponding speed signal. This prevents the ABS control unit from determining the vehicle speed and wheel slip rate, thus failing to issue appropriate commands to regulate braking. Solution: Clean the contaminants from the wheel speed sensor and adjust the gap between the sensor and the signal ring to restore normal function. Cause 2: Poor signal transmission due to loose connections between system wires or poor contact in the ABS relay, leading to system malfunction. Solution: Inspect wire connections and reconnect any loose parts. State 2: ABS warning light illuminates intermittently and turns off during acceleration. Cause: When multiple vehicle electrical devices are in use, the battery voltage drops below 10.5V. As engine speed increases, voltage rises, causing the ABS light to turn off. This may also occur due to insufficient power supply voltage to the ABS system, such as poor terminal contact or grounding issues. Solution: Check battery specific gravity; inspect the charging system; examine power supply components (e.g., voltage relay or poor power contact). State 3: ABS warning light remains illuminated after engine start and only turns off when the engine is turned off (IGFF). Cause: Poor grounding contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body; poor electrical connection in the ABS hydraulic valve body; ABS control unit malfunction. Solution: Loosen and retighten the hydraulic valve body ground screw, cleaning the contact surface if necessary; check for enlarged connector gaps; replace the ABS or ABS/ASR control unit. State 4: ABS warning light illuminates during high-speed driving. Cause: During high-speed driving, the ABS control unit detects a significant discrepancy between rear and front wheel speed signals; incorrect tire or wheel rim specifications. Solution: Refer to the vehicle's specified tire and wheel rim sizes, typically listed on the fuel tank cap sticker. State 5: ABS warning light illuminates intermittently. Cause: Improper adjustment of the brake light switch; poor internal contact in the brake light. Solution: With the engine running, press the brake pedal and manually push the brake switch linkage downward to its limit, then release the pedal to complete self-positioning; replace the brake light switch if necessary. When the ABS warning light is illuminated, it is advisable not to continue driving. An illuminated ABS light indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's anti-lock braking system. During emergency braking, if the wheels lock up, the vehicle may skid uncontrollably, preventing the driver from slowing down or adjusting the vehicle's trajectory, posing significant safety risks.

What does the ESC button in the car mean?

ESC button in the car stands for Electronic Stability Control, which is an active safety technology that assists drivers in controlling the vehicle. It is a further extension of the functions of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Traction Control System (TCS). The role of ESC is to control the longitudinal and lateral stability of the vehicle to ensure stable driving. ESC consists of sensors, actuators, and an electronic control unit. A malfunction in any of these parts can cause the ESC warning light to illuminate. Solutions for when the ESC warning light comes on: 1. Restart the engine; 2. Press the ESC off button on the vehicle; 3. Restart the vehicle to determine if the warning light is caused by a false fault.
