Mercedes-Benz ABS stops working and refers to the user manual means that the vehicle's ABS system has stopped functioning. The ABS in a car is the Anti-lock Braking System. During braking, ABS automatically controls the braking force to prevent the wheels from locking up, keeping them in a state of rolling and sliding to ensure maximum traction between the wheels and the road. ABS quickly determines the wheel lock-up state based on speed signals from each wheel speed sensor, closing the normally open input solenoid valve on the wheel that is starting to lock, thereby maintaining the braking force. Components of the ABS system: ABS typically consists of components such as wheel speed sensors, brake pressure modulation devices, ABS electronic control units, and ABS warning lights. The control channels of ABS systems are categorized into four-channel, three-channel, two-channel, and one-channel types. Possible causes of failure: Failure causes include damaged or dirty sensors, which may require cleaning or replacement; damaged or dirty signal wheels, necessitating cleaning or bearing replacement; damaged ABS control units, requiring control unit replacement; loose or broken ABS wiring, needing repair or harness replacement. If the ABS light is on, it is recommended to visit a repair facility as soon as possible for inspection and repair to determine the cause of the failure.

Is a Car with Replaced Glass Considered an Accident Vehicle?

Replacing the glass does not necessarily mean the car is an accident vehicle. There are various reasons for glass replacement, and it's important to determine whether the replacement was due to an accident or an unexpected event. If the glass was damaged and replaced due to a collision, then the car is considered an accident vehicle. However, if the glass was damaged by an unforeseen and unavoidable incident, such as a flying stone, it is not classified as an accident vehicle. The definition of an accident vehicle includes: 1. Vehicles that have suffered severe impacts damaging the engine compartment or the passenger compartment; 2. Vehicles with collision damage to the radiator support; 3. Vehicles where the rear quarter panel has suffered impact damage exceeding half of its area. Generally, an accident vehicle refers to one with structural damage, and vehicles affected by flooding or fire are also categorized as special types of accident vehicles.

Can You Start the Car with One Push Without Pressing the Brake?

You cannot start the car with one push without pressing the brake. Pressing the one-push start button without stepping on the brake only powers on the electrical system, while pressing it with the brake engaged will start the engine. You can first press the button without stepping on the brake to power up the car's circuits and perform a self-check. If no issues are detected, you can then press the button while stepping on the brake to start the engine. The one-push start system is part of a smart car's features, designed to simplify the starting process with a single button that can also turn off the engine. The functions of the one-push start system include: 1. Multiple start modes; 2. Convenience and speed; 3. Stable and reliable performance; 4. Smart keyless entry; 5. Dual-mode free switching for smart keys; 6. Smart card backup key; 7. Intelligent silent car wash mode.

What is the problem when the high-pressure pipe of a car air conditioner has high pressure?

High pressure in the high-pressure pipe of a car air conditioner is caused by liquid slugging damage to the compressor. Below are detailed explanations of high pressure in the high-pressure pipe of a car air conditioner: 1. To test the compression efficiency of the compressor when the high-pressure pipe has high pressure, a three-way pressure gauge set should be connected for testing without disassembling the system. 2. The high-pressure range is 1.3-1.7MPa; the low-pressure range is between 0.1-0.25MPa. Insert the temperature probe of an electronic thermometer into the air outlet to obtain a temperature reading. 3. When there are oil traces on the clutch coil and the suction plate of the compressor, its shaft seal is definitely leaking. For dirt blockages, use nitrogen or dried compressed air to repeatedly blow through until it is clean and unobstructed. When there is a yellow-brown sticky liquid in the sight glass, it indicates that the system is dirty or there is excessive oil storage. 4. When there is a certain amount of refrigerant in the system, accelerating the engine should cause the low-pressure gauge needle to drop significantly, and the high pressure should also rise significantly. The greater the throttle, the more the needle drops, indicating good compressor performance; if the low-pressure gauge needle drops slowly and slightly during acceleration, it indicates low compression efficiency of the compressor; if the low-pressure gauge needle shows almost no response during acceleration, it means the compressor has no compression efficiency at all.

How many liters of engine oil does the Mercedes-Benz E300 require?

The Mercedes-Benz E300 requires 7 liters of engine oil. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To separate the surfaces of relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear; 2. To carry heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air, assisting the radiator in cooling the engine; 3. To circulate carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, flushing away contaminants generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of lubricating oil. The dimensions of the Mercedes-Benz E300 are 5078mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1484mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3079mm. The Mercedes-Benz E300 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 190kW and a maximum torque of 370Nm, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.

What to Do When There's an Unpleasant Odor in the Car After Turning on the Air Conditioning?

Depending on the duration of use, the following three methods should be considered for odor removal: 1. Run the fan at high speed. 2. Clean the air conditioning ducts: Locate the installation position of the air filter, spray cleaning agent into the ducts from the filter position, turn the air conditioning to the highest setting, open the windows, and run it for a few minutes. 3. Replace the air filter: A heavily soiled filter not only fails to purify but can also cause secondary pollution. Normally, an original air filter has a service life of one year or 30,000 kilometers. If the vehicle frequently travels on roads with poor air quality, the filter replacement cycle should be appropriately shortened.
