Which Direction Should the Cabin Air Filter Face?

The cabin air filter should face downward. The arrow on the car's cabin air filter indicates the correct orientation of the filter. The direction of the arrow represents the airflow direction, which is also the installation direction. If the arrow points upward, that is the front side, and it should be installed with the front side facing the airflow direction. You can also determine the correct side by observing the surface of the air filter. The cabin air filter needs to be replaced regularly, and the replacement process is relatively simple, allowing you to purchase the part and replace it yourself. The cabin air filter is an important component of the car's air conditioning system. It is recommended to replace the cabin air filter every 10,000 kilometers. If the cabin air filter is not replaced for a long time, it will affect the performance of the air conditioning system and the health of the passengers. Therefore, it is advisable for car owners to replace the cabin air filter periodically.

What is the reason for the Highlander recall to replace the fuel pump?

Starting from July 10, 2021, GAC Toyota is recalling a total of 25,143 Highlander vehicles produced between October 13, 2018, and April 9, 2021. Here are the specific details: 1. Reason: The recall is due to manufacturing deviations during the assembly process of internal components of the high-pressure fuel pump at the parts production factory, which may result in insufficient tightening of some components. During use, abnormal wear may occur inside the high-pressure fuel pump, and due to loosening of internal components, fatigue cracks may develop at the welded joints of the high-pressure fuel pump, potentially leading to fuel leakage. In extreme cases, this may increase the risk of fire, posing a safety hazard. 2. Emergency measures: Before the recall repair, if users detect a fuel odor or notice fuel leakage during vehicle use, they should stop using the vehicle and contact the dealer for assistance. It is recommended to avoid proximity to ignition sources until the safety hazard is resolved and to visit the dealership for repair once the recall campaign begins.

Does the Audi A6 2.0T Burn Engine Oil?

Audi A6 2.0T does not burn engine oil. Poor oil quality: Using low-quality or viscosity-grade non-compliant engine oil. Low-quality engine oil can accelerate wear. Additionally, oil viscosity that is either too low or too high can cause poor engine lubrication, increasing wear on piston rings and cylinder walls, reducing sealing performance, and leading to oil burning. Poor piston ring sealing: Excessive clearance between piston rings and cylinder walls, improper installation of piston rings, or degraded sealing can allow oil on the cylinder walls to enter the combustion chamber, causing oil burning. Turbocharger oil leakage: The turbocharger is installed at the front of the exhaust pipe and operates at very high temperatures. The turbine and pump wheel can reach speeds of 10,000 to 20,000 RPM during full engine load. Oil leakage from the pipes or bearings can allow engine oil to seep into the exhaust pipe from the turbocharger.

What are the reasons why the car window cannot be raised or lowered?

There are several reasons why a car window cannot be raised or lowered: 1. Aging, dirty, or deformed glass sealing strips (including inner strips): These create resistance when raising or lowering the window. If they are aged or deformed, replace the sealing strips. If they are dirty, spray some dashboard wax or apply talcum powder to the strips. 2. Dirty window lift rails: Clean the window lift rails and apply lubricating grease to eliminate the issue. 3. Low battery power: Operating the window when the engine is off consumes battery power. If the battery is low, it may be difficult to raise or lower the window. 4. Motor failure: If there is sufficient power and no resistance, but the window is still difficult to operate, the motor may be faulty. 5. Window regulator failure: Issues such as faulty lift rails, cable problems, or slider malfunctions may require replacing the window regulator. 6. Improper glass sealing strips: If the strips are not fitting properly, you can adjust their shape using scissors or a knife as a DIY solution.
