What does the S gear in an automatic transmission mean?

1 Answers

S gear stands for (sport) mode. In this gear, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high RPM for a longer time, thereby increasing the vehicle's power. Here is an introduction to the automatic transmission gears: 1. P gear represents the parking gear, used when parking, meaning it is engaged after the car is parked. However, it must only be engaged after the car has come to a complete stop. Its purpose is to effectively lock the vehicle's output system, preventing the car from moving. 2. R gear represents the reverse gear. However, it is important to note that when preparing to reverse, the car must be in a completely stopped state before engaging this gear, otherwise it can easily cause wear to the transmission. 3. N gear represents the neutral gear, used when the car is parked. 4. D gear represents the drive gear, which is used when the vehicle is in motion.

How many liters of engine oil should be added to a BMW 320Li?

The BMW 320Li with chassis model F35 is a four-door long-wheelbase version equipped with an N20 engine, and its engine oil capacity is 5L. If the engine is being repaired, an additional 1-1.5 liters of oil may be required due to the complete drainage of the engine system and the need for lubrication during assembly. Below are specific details about engine oil: 1. Engine oil refers to the lubricant specifically used in internal combustion engines, which, in addition to lubrication, also serves functions such as cleaning, rust prevention, and cooling. 2. If too much oil is added, it will increase the amount of oil splashed onto the cylinder walls by the crankshaft and connecting rods, increasing the rotational resistance of the crankshaft, reducing engine power output, and increasing fuel consumption. 3. It is advisable to maintain the oil level slightly below the MAX mark on the dipstick. The engine oil dipstick has an upper and lower limit. The normal oil level should be between these two marks.

Is there a big difference in driving feel between the Audi Q3 and Q5?

There isn't a significant difference between the Q5 and Q3. However, the Q3 feels noticeably tighter when driving, giving a very compact sensation, while the Q5 feels somewhat 'loose'. Below is an introduction to the Q3 and Q5: 1. Q3 Introduction: The Audi Q3 is an SUV based on the same PQ35 platform as the Volkswagen Tiguan, positioned below the Q7 and Q5 in Audi's model lineup. To distinguish it from Volkswagen models, the Audi Q3 has been tuned for more dynamic driving performance and a luxurious, distinctive appearance. It comes equipped with adaptive dampers, similar to those found on the TT. 2. Q5 Introduction: The Audi Q5 is a mid-size SUV developed on the production platform of the Audi A4. The stylish exterior of the Audi Q5 continues the design style of the Audi Q7, featuring Audi's signature chrome 'Singleframe' grille, highlighting its fashionable and dynamic design. The integrated headlights make it look more lively than the A4 model.

What is the reason for the front of the car air conditioner not cooling while the rear is cooling?

Introduction to the reasons why the front of the car air conditioner does not cool while the rear does: 1. Lack of refrigerant: The loss of refrigerant is mainly due to leakage. If the car's air conditioner is not working properly and starts malfunctioning again after adding refrigerant for a period of time, a relatively simple method is applicable when leakage occurs. You can see oil stains on the surface of the condenser through the grille. When this happens, it usually indicates a leakage in the condenser. 2. Dirty condenser: When cleaning, be sure to first use an air gun to blow it clean, then wash it with a water gun, otherwise it will have the opposite effect. Not only will the air conditioner not work properly, but fuel consumption will also increase. 3. Water in the pipeline: There is a dryer in the car air conditioner's refrigeration system, whose task is to absorb moisture from the refrigerant. When the desiccant in the dryer is saturated, moisture can no longer be filtered out. When the refrigerant passes through the expansion valve orifice, its pressure and temperature drop, causing the water in the refrigerant to freeze in the small hole, leading to poor refrigerant flow, increased resistance, and the air conditioner's inability to cool.
