Oil-life indicates the remaining lifespan of the engine oil. Below is an introduction related to oil-life: 1. Significance: The reminder for the remaining lifespan of engine oil is a result calculated by the vehicle's computer system, which takes into account various factors such as usage time, mileage, engine speed, etc. When the remaining oil life drops below approximately 10%, the vehicle's instrument cluster will issue a prompt to replace the engine oil in a timely manner. 2. Display meaning: This reminder is displayed on the car's instrument cluster as 'Oil Life Remaining + percentage'. When the vehicle reaches the scheduled maintenance mileage, the remaining oil life might still show around 40-50%. This is because the system's calculation for remaining oil life is quite conservative and can be understood as the limit value of the oil's lifespan.

What does SMA pavement mean?

SMA pavement is a type of road surface paved with asphalt mixture. Introduction to the pavement: SMA is an asphalt mixture composed of asphalt, fiber stabilizers, mineral powder, and a small amount of fine aggregate, which fills the gaps in the coarse aggregate skeleton with discontinuous gradation. After compaction, it offers technical advantages such as resistance to rutting, cracking, and skidding, as well as impermeability and high durability. History of the pavement: In the mid-1960s, Germany developed this new type of pavement based on poured asphalt concrete to address rutting issues. It became widely used in Europe in the 1980s. After the United States introduced the technology in the early 1990s, significant improvements and developments were made.

How Did the Name Mercedes-Benz Originate?

Mercedes-Benz comes from the name of a little girl. The origin of the name: The full name of Mercedes-Benz is Mercedes-Benz, and Mercedes actually means happiness. In 1899, Emil Jellinek, the then Austrian Consul General in Germany, ordered three Daimler Phoenix cars. He named them after his daughter's name—Mercedes—and drove them in the Nice Automobile Rally at the time, even winning the championship. The meaning of the name: Emil believed that his daughter's name brought good luck, so he suggested the name to the Mercedes-Benz company. The company adopted it for two main reasons: the first was to leverage Emil's influence to expand the Austrian market, and the second was the hope that driving a Mercedes-Benz would bring happiness to its owners, a very auspicious meaning.

Can cracks in the black area of the windshield be repaired?

Cracks in the black area of the windshield cannot be repaired. Functions of the black area: To block sunlight and prevent glare when looking at the rearview mirror. Since a sun visor cannot be installed behind the rearview mirror, this area serves that purpose; For electronic camera focusing. This area is designated for camera focusing, as required by traffic regulations; To prevent the glass from cracking due to uneven thermal stress during intense sun exposure. The edges of the glass are directly attached to the car body, while the central areas are transparent, absorbing less heat than the edges. The black dots ensure even heat distribution across the glass, preventing cracks. Laminated windshield: This refers to a type of glass where a transparent adhesive plastic film is placed between two or three layers of glass, combining the toughness of plastic with the hardness of glass, thereby enhancing the glass's resistance to breakage. Upon impact, the glass breaks into small, blunt-edged fragments, reducing the risk of injury to passengers.

What is the equivalent displacement of a 2.0T engine?

2.0T is equivalent to a 3.0L displacement. Automobile Displacement: Displacement is a specialized term in hydraulic transmission, referring to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle. Car displacement is an important parameter for measuring a vehicle. Some domestic cars do not have the above-mentioned car model at the rear, but their displacement is generally indicated on the body or rear of the car. Generally, a larger displacement means the engine releases more energy per unit time (converting the chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy), which translates to better "power performance." It's like comparing a teenage boy to a healthy adult—the adult is naturally more efficient at physical labor. Therefore, off-road vehicles and sports cars usually have relatively larger displacements. Displacement Classification: In China, the classification of car levels is determined by the size of the displacement. Mini cars have a displacement of ≤1.0L; compact cars have a displacement ranging from 1.0L to 1.6L; mid-size cars have a displacement ranging from 1.6L to 2.5L; executive cars have a displacement ranging from 2.5L to 4.0L; and luxury cars have a displacement of >4.0L.

How to Deal with Excessive Rear Axle Noise?

Excessive rear axle noise can be addressed by adjusting the differential gear clearance. Operating Principle: The rear axle contains a set of differential gears, which form a differential gear set consisting of spiral bevel gears. The drive shaft drives the pinion gear, which then transmits power through the ring gear and planetary gears to the vehicle's half-shafts, ultimately driving the wheels. The planetary gear system ensures that the outer wheel rotates faster and the inner wheel slower when the car turns, which is the function of the differential. Causes: When the gear set wears out, the meshing clearance between the gears increases, resulting in significant noise during high-speed rotation. The meshing clearance of the gears can be adjusted using shims, and a mechanic can properly adjust these clearances.

What is the hourly fuel consumption of a fuel steam boiler?

The hourly fuel consumption of a fuel steam boiler is equal to 3600 multiplied by the thermal power divided by the diesel calorific value and divided by the boiler efficiency. Types of fuel for fuel boilers: Currently, the fuel oils that can be burned in fuel boilers are light diesel and heavy oil. The boiling point range of light diesel is approximately 180-370 degrees Celsius, while heavy oil is the residual heavy oil left after extracting gasoline and diesel from crude oil. Its characteristics include large molecular weight and high viscosity. Features of fuel steam boilers: Automatic control. Modern fuel steam boilers mostly use PLC automatic controllers, with Chinese LCD screens and human-machine interfaces. Operators only need to set certain values for the boiler to achieve automatic operation and shutdown. At the same time, the boiler will automatically record operational data, providing references for engineers to troubleshoot boiler operation issues.
