Twin-Scroll-Turbo refers to a technology that utilizes two scrolls to drive a single turbocharger. Below are the relevant details: 1. Twin-Scroll: Twin-Scroll refers to the exhaust scroll. It means a turbocharger set consists of one intake boosting turbo connected to two exhaust turbos. The advantage of this structure is that it can fully utilize variable valve timing technology to operate the valves based on the intake and exhaust delays of the cylinders at different RPMs. Additionally, the engine becomes lighter and more fuel-efficient than the N54B30. Moreover, the turbo can engage as low as 1200 RPM. 2. Technical Inspiration: Twin-Power-Turbo is a new technology by BMW. Inspired by the N54B30 engine, which has a short lifespan and cannot be equipped with Valvetronic due to its complex valve components, Valvetronic is BMW's VVT technology.

As a BMW 3 Series owner for several years, I can tell you that TwinPower Turbo is the signature technology of BMW engines. Simply put, it's a twin-turbocharging system that makes the engine accelerate faster and respond more sharply. With this technology in my car, every start is incredibly smooth, without any turbo lag or jerky feeling, and overtaking on the highway is particularly effortless. TwinPower Turbo actually consists of several components, such as a twin-scroll design that separates exhaust flow to avoid interference, combined with high-pressure direct injection for more efficient fuel combustion. In daily driving, it’s also slightly more fuel-efficient than a conventional engine, averaging around 8 liters per 100 kilometers. Overall, this technology enhances the driving experience, but the turbo needs regular maintenance to avoid potential issues.

How to Solve the Low-Frequency Resonance Caused by Accord Leading to Tinnitus?

The solution to the low-frequency resonance caused by the Accord leading to tinnitus is to install high-efficiency soundproofing cotton for noise reduction. Below are specific details about low-frequency resonance in cars: 1. When low-frequency resonance occurs in a car, the vehicle idles or drives at low speeds, and continuous low-frequency resonance inside the cabin causes discomfort to the driver and passengers, with severe cases even leading to dizziness, vertigo, and nausea. Due to the thin metal and plastic panels in mid-to-low-end cars, external noise can penetrate. Installing thickened soundproofing panels can block the noise. The car body's design inherently avoids overlapping the car's natural frequency with the engine's frequency. However, due to wear and tear from usage, the car's natural frequency changes, causing resonance at a new speed. 2. For low-frequency resonance in cars, it is recommended to use white sound-absorbing cotton (white cotton, Sherry cotton, microfiber cotton) for soundproofing materials, as it can effectively absorb low-frequency noise bands generated externally or internally. As for vibration damping panels, there are two types: asphalt and butyl rubber. Although both can eliminate low-frequency noise in cars, butyl rubber is preferred because asphalt vibration damping panels emit toxic gases such as formaldehyde and toluene at high temperatures, which significantly impact human health.

How to Carry a Baby in a Smart Two-Seater?

To carry a baby in a Smart two-seater, you only need to properly use restraint devices such as a safety cradle, safety seat, or safety booster seat. However, please note the following: 1. Cannot sit in the front passenger seat: According to the law, children under 10 years old are not allowed to sit alone in the front passenger seat. 2. Sit in the rear seat: Sit in the rear seat and install restraint devices. Here is some information about the Smart two-seater: 1. Body dimensions: The overall length is only 2500mm; the curb weight is only 730kg. 2. Powertrain of the new model: Equipped with a 0.9T three-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 90 horsepower and a maximum torque of 135 N·m. The existing model is equipped with a 1.0L naturally aspirated engine, producing a maximum power of 71 horsepower and a torque of 91 N·m. The new model features a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.

At What Tire Pressure Should You Inflate?

Typically, you need to inflate when the tire pressure is below 2.4 bar. The hazards of low tire pressure include: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Causing the steering wheel to feel heavy and making the vehicle prone to drifting, which are factors detrimental to driving safety; Increasing the movement of various parts of the tire, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal heating of the tire; Reducing the functionality of the cord and rubber, causing delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim, resulting in damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; Exponentially increasing friction between the tire and the ground, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving under these conditions may lead to a blowout; Increasing tire body deformation, making the tire side prone to cracking, and generating flexing movements that lead to excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue in the cord layer, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating wear on the tire shoulder.

What to Do with TPMS When Changing Wheels?

After changing the wheels, simply replace and reset the tire pressure monitoring sensors. Tire pressure monitoring is a system that automatically monitors tire pressure in real-time while driving, alerting the driver to leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. There are three common types of tire pressure monitoring systems: Direct TPMS: Direct TPMS uses pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the data for each tire. The system automatically alerts when tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. Indirect TPMS: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, making it rotate faster than the other wheels. By comparing the rotational speed differences between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect TPMS essentially relies on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): This system combines the advantages of both direct and indirect systems. It is equipped with direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and includes a 4-wheel indirect system. Compared to a full direct system, this hybrid system reduces costs and overcomes the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect simultaneous low pressure in multiple tires. However, it still cannot provide real-time pressure data for all four tires like a direct system.

How to Repair a Faulty Polo Trunk Lock?

Here are the methods to deal with a faulty Polo trunk lock: 1. Linkage rod or lock cylinder issue. Spray rust remover into the lock cylinder a few times to open it. 2. The car key battery is dead and needs to be replaced. Below are the specific steps to replace the battery: (1) Locate the switch on the back of the car key, pull the top part outward, and after removing the internal metal mechanical key, you will see a small groove. (2) Use a flathead screwdriver or another tool to pry open the car key cover along the groove. Once a gap appears, you can manually open it. (3) After opening the car key cover, remove the old battery and replace it with a new one, paying attention to the battery's polarity. (4) Reattach the key cover and reinsert the mechanical key. Below is additional information on emergency trunk opening methods: 1. Most car models have a small slot inside the trunk. Use a key or another sharp object to pry open the outer cover. 2. Once the cover is pried open, you can see the rear trunk locking mechanism inside. Simply pull it slightly by hand to open the trunk door.
