The 't' in vehicles stands for Turbo, which is short for turbocharging. It refers to an engine equipped with a turbocharging device that alters the air intake volume, allowing for more complete combustion of fuel in the cylinders, thereby increasing the engine's output power. The maintenance methods for turbocharged engines include: 1. Avoid pressing the accelerator pedal sharply after starting the engine; 2. Do not turn off the engine immediately after prolonged high-speed operation. Turbocharging is a type of air compressor that increases air intake by compressing air. It utilizes the inertial force of exhaust gases expelled by the engine to drive the turbine in the turbocharger, which in turn drives the coaxial impeller. The impeller then pressurizes the air delivered from the air filter pipe, forcing it into the cylinders under increased pressure.

Where Does the Water Go When the Sunroof Drain Pipe is Clogged?

When the sunroof drain pipe is clogged, water may flow into the car, causing water ingress in the cabin. Once the drain hole is blocked, leaks or seepage can occur inside the vehicle, potentially damaging interior panels in minor cases or leading to mechanical component and engine electrical system damage in severe cases. Therefore, it is essential to keep the sunroof drain pipe clear and perform regular maintenance on the sunroof. Precautions for a clogged sunroof drain pipe: 1. Check the drain hole: If you notice water leaking from the sunroof, inspect the drain hole to see if it is blocked. Parking the car under trees can lead to clogging due to fallen leaves, resulting in sunroof leaks. If the leak is caused by a blocked drain hole, clearing it promptly can resolve the issue. 2. Inspect the sealing strip: If the sunroof sealing strip is damaged, water accumulation on the roof may seep through, causing leaks. Replacing the sunroof sealing strip in time can prevent such leaks.

What are the impacts of not transferring insurance after selling a car?

The impacts of not transferring insurance after selling a car are as follows: 1. No traffic accident occurs: After the vehicle is sold, the insurance period is only one year, and it must be repurchased upon expiration. If no insurance incident occurs during this period, there is basically no impact when purchasing insurance yourself after it expires. 2. A traffic accident occurs: Regulations stipulate that commercial insurance must be transferred. The motor vehicle insurance clauses stipulate that during the insurance period, if the insured vehicle is sold, transferred, gifted to others, or its purpose is changed, the insured must notify the insurance company in writing and apply for endorsement. Otherwise, the insurance company has the right to refuse compensation. 3. Insurance company claims: As long as the accident is not caused by illegal driving, the insurance company can still settle the claim within the scope of liability. The trouble is that the insurance company stipulates that the compensation must be paid to the insured, which means the insured's ID card and bank card must be provided. 4. Insurance company refuses to settle the claim: The most important thing is that once personal injury, death, or disability occurs, the consequences of the accident are serious, and huge compensation is required. If the new owner is unable to compensate, the original owner will bear joint liability.
