TSI refers to a technology used in engines, specifically manufactured by Volkswagen in Germany. The meaning of Volkswagen's TSI differs between domestic and international markets. Here are the detailed explanations: 1. Internationally, Volkswagen TSI stands for Twincharger Stratified Injection, indicating twin-charging (turbo and mechanical supercharging) stratified injection technology. 2. Domestically in China, the T in TSI represents Turbocharging, and the Si stands for Fuel Direct Injection. However, it does not include the stratified injection technology due to the generally lower quality of fuel in China, which cannot meet the requirements for stratified injection.

What is tire cord separation?

Tire cord separation can occur due to the following reasons: 1. Severe vehicle overloading and poor road conditions. 2. Wheel rim diameter issues. Inner tube tires are 2.5 inches smaller than tubeless tires. 3. Manufacturing defects. Insufficient vulcanization at the tire bead area leads to cord separation. 4. Other factors such as poor braking systems and high environmental temperatures. Here are some tire maintenance methods: 1. Perform regular wheel alignment and tire rotation. 2. Frequently check tire pressure. 3. Always pay attention to the wear indicators on tires. 4. Regularly inspect tire conditions.

Why is there a sour smell inside the car?

The sour smell inside a car can be caused by an uncleaned air conditioning system for a long time, seat covers or floor mats that haven't been replaced for a while, or odors emitted from the materials used in the car's original decorations. Below are some related methods for removing odors from cars: 1. Method one: Regularly ventilate the car to maintain air circulation inside the vehicle. Before each drive, choose a sunny day to open all five doors of the car, let it air out for 2-3 hours, and ventilate; meanwhile, clean the interior, organize the items inside, making it both clean and tidy—killing multiple birds with one stone. 2. Method two: Use herbal formaldehyde cleaners by spraying them onto the vehicle's seats to eliminate odors. 3. Method three: Place some activated charcoal or fruit peels inside the car.

How many kilometers should a new car drive before changing the gear oil?

Generally, the gear oil in a new car should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers or every two years. Gear oil deteriorates and volatilizes when working for long periods under high-speed and high-temperature conditions, so regular replacement is necessary. Failure to replace it may accelerate wear and tear on mechanical components. Gear oil helps maintain the cleanliness of the gear system, lubricates the transmission, and extends its service life. Gear oil is primarily composed of petroleum-based lubricating oil or synthetic lubricating oil, blended with extreme pressure anti-wear agents and oiliness agents. It mainly functions to lubricate gears and bearings, prevent wear and corrosion, and assist in heat dissipation for gears. It is used in various gear transmission devices to prolong their service life and enhance power transmission efficiency.

What does 84H on a tire mean?

Tire 84H indicates that the tire has a load index of 500KG and a maximum speed of 210KM per hour. The load index refers to the maximum load capacity that a single tire can bear under specified conditions when inflated to maximum air pressure, while the speed rating indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry the specified load under defined conditions. Exceeding this speed increases the risk of tire blowout. Tires are generally composed of three parts: the outer tire, inner tube, and flap. The inner layer of the tire has an airtight rubber layer, gradually promoting the development of lighter tires. The outer tire mainly consists of the carcass, tread, sidewall, and bead, with the carcass and bead forming the force-bearing structure of the vehicle's pneumatic tire.

How to Determine if a Car is China 5 or China 6 Emission Standard?

For new cars, you can check the emission standard on the vehicle qualification certificate, while for used cars, you can refer to the information on the environmental protection label. Below is relevant information about China 5 and China 6 emission standard vehicles: 1. Price difference: China 6 vehicles are generally more expensive than China 5 vehicles, mainly because automakers need to comply with policy implementation by submitting applications to relevant departments and conducting various pollution tests, which increases costs and consequently raises the vehicle's price. Additionally, China 6 vehicles are equipped with more configurations compared to China 5 vehicles to further reduce environmental pollution. 2. Access restrictions: With the implementation of the China 6 policy, vehicles that do not meet the emission standards face certain driving restrictions. Generally, China 5 or lower-standard vehicles may be directly prohibited from road use due to non-compliant emissions. Therefore, many owners of China 5 vehicles switch to China 6 vehicles to ensure normal road usage.

What is the reason for the exhaust pipe not dripping water in summer?

The reason the exhaust pipe does not drip water in summer is due to high engine compression pressure and low exhaust pipe temperature. Below is relevant information about the exhaust pipe: 1. Introduction: The exhaust pipe is a device designed to reduce vibration and noise, facilitate installation, and extend the lifespan of the exhaust muffler system. It is installed between the engine exhaust manifold and the muffler, allowing the entire exhaust system to have a flexible connection. Exhaust pipes are mainly used in light vehicles, compact cars, buses, and motorcycles. The structure of the exhaust pipe consists of a double-layer corrugated pipe covered with a steel wire mesh sleeve, with clamping rings at both ends. To enhance the muffling effect, the corrugated pipe can be equipped with expansion joints or mesh sleeves internally. 2. Function: For the car body, the exhaust pipe serves to reduce vibration and noise, as well as extend the lifespan of the exhaust muffler system.
