Auto start-stop function is a system that automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (such as waiting at a red light) and restarts the engine when it's time to move forward again. It achieves this by equipping a traditional engine with an enhanced motor that has idle start-stop capability, allowing the engine to completely shut off when the conditions for idle stopping are met. The working principle of the start-stop system is as follows: when the vehicle stops due to traffic congestion or at an intersection, and the driver presses the brake pedal and shifts to neutral, the Start-Stop system automatically checks three conditions: the engine is idling and in neutral, the wheel speed sensors of the anti-lock system show zero rotation, and the electronic battery sensor indicates sufficient energy for the next start. Once these three conditions are satisfied, the engine automatically stops running.

Can I Take Leave During Subject 2 Driving Practice?

Subject 2 Driving Practice allows for taking leave. Relevant information is introduced as follows: 1. Introduction to Subject 2: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment, referred to as the field driving skill test subject. For small vehicles (C1/C2), the test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions may include a sixth item, such as high-speed card collection. 2. Large Vehicle Test Items: For large vehicles, the test items include stake test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, curve driving, right-angle turns, passing a width-limited gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on undulating roads, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulations for highways, continuous sharp curves on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

What causes the right side to be too narrow when reversing into the right parking space?

Right side being too narrow when reversing into the right parking space is caused by: incorrect timing of turning the steering wheel clockwise, which is too early. Here is more information about reversing into the right parking space: 1. To enter the exact middle of the parking space when reversing right, the timing of turning the steering wheel clockwise is most important—it should not be too early or too late; if too early, it is easy to hit the right boundary line; if too late, it is easy to hit the left boundary line. 2. The remedy is to turn the steering wheel counterclockwise one full turn and then continue reversing. At this time, the speed of turning the steering wheel should be fast and without hesitation, and the clutch should be controlled well to maintain the speed and prevent stalling. 3. When the steering wheel is corrected earlier, adjust the left and right distances by observing through the left and right rearview mirrors.

What is the refrigerant charging capacity for the Audi Q7?

When adding refrigerant, a pressure gauge is first used for testing, and it should be charged up to 2.5 pressure. Below are the methods for adding refrigerant to a car: 1. High-pressure side charging: This involves adding refrigerant from the bypass port (multi-purpose channel) of the compressor discharge valve (high-pressure valve), known as high-pressure side charging, where liquid refrigerant is added. This method is characterized by safety and speed, suitable for the first charging of the refrigeration system, i.e., after leak detection and vacuuming. However, it must be noted that the compressor should not be turned on during charging (with the engine off), and the refrigerant canister must be inverted. 2. Low-pressure side charging: This involves adding refrigerant from the bypass port (multi-purpose channel) of the compressor suction valve (low-pressure valve), known as low-pressure side charging, where gaseous refrigerant is added. This method is characterized by slower charging speed and can be used for supplementing refrigerant in the system.

What is the optimal age and mileage for a used car?

The optimal age for a used car is within 5 years, and the mileage should be under 50,000 kilometers. Below are some related introductions about used cars: 1. Optimal age and mileage: The optimal age is within 5 years, as environmental regulations are being upgraded rapidly, and annual inspection standards are becoming stricter. If the new car's market value is below 200,000, then the mileage should ideally be under 50,000 kilometers; if the new car's market value is between 200,000 and 700,000, then a mileage under 100,000 kilometers is still acceptable in terms of performance. 2. Considerations when purchasing: Check the brand and model—here, the model refers to the vehicle's specific type. Some brands are easier to maintain, with more available and cheaper spare parts, making such used cars more convenient for future use. Also, consider the price drop of the new car. If the new car's price is relatively stable and the price drops slowly, the used car's resale value will be higher.

What are the gear positions of Audi?

Audi gear positions include P, N, D, R, and S. The following is a related introduction to Audi gear positions: 1. P position: It is the parking and starting position. When this gear is engaged, the parking lock mechanism locks the transmission output shaft. 2. R position: It is the reverse gear. When this gear is engaged, the hydraulic system reverse gear oil circuit is connected, causing the drive wheels to reverse for reverse driving. When the vehicle is not completely stopped, do not forcibly shift to the "R" position, as this may damage the transmission. 3. N position: It is the neutral gear. When the neutral gear is engaged, the planetary gear system idles and cannot output power. 4. D position: It is the drive gear, also known as the forward gear. When the gearshift lever is in this position, the hydraulic system control device automatically connects the corresponding forward gear based on the throttle signal and vehicle speed signal. It can automatically shift up or down with changes in driving speed, achieving automatic transmission function. 5. S position: It is the sport mode. When the gearshift lever is in this position, the transmission control module receives the driver's command, and the vehicle enters sport mode.
