Engine exhaust pipe functions are as follows: 1. It can discharge the exhaust gas generated in the engine, reducing pressure, which is an important guarantee for the continuous operation of a vehicle. 2. Noise reduction: There are two silencing systems in the entire exhaust pipe system. The first one uses the exhaust manifold that discharges the engine's exhaust gas, and the second is the main muffler at the tail of the exhaust pipe. Through these two steps of silencing, the sound of exhaust gas discharge can basically be reduced to a reasonable range. 3. Filtering exhaust gas and reducing pollution: There is a three-way catalytic converter in the middle section of the exhaust pipe. The substances inside it can chemically react with the harmful substances in the exhaust gas, thereby reducing the pollution of the exhaust gas discharge to the air. 4. It makes the vehicle look more aesthetically pleasing, and even differences in shape, such as round or square, can lead to price differences in cars.

Is Wheel Balancing Necessary When Replacing All Four Tires?

Wheel balancing is necessary when replacing tires. Wheel balancing is also required under the following circumstances: 1. When installing new tires or after collision repairs. 2. When there is uneven wear on one side of the front or rear tires. 3. When experiencing heavy steering or floating/shaking sensations while driving. 4. When the vehicle tends to pull to the left or right during straight-line driving. 5. It is recommended to perform wheel balancing every 3 months, 6 months, or 10,000 kilometers for new vehicles. Additional information about wheel balancing: 1. Wheel balancing refers to the balance between wheels when the vehicle is in motion. 2. To prevent unbalanced conditions caused by uneven mass distribution in various parts of the vehicle, wheel balancing is required.

Does the Tiguan have four-wheel drive?

Tiguan does have four-wheel drive vehicles. Here is some introduction about four-wheel drive: 1. Four-wheel drive, also known as all-wheel drive, means that both front and rear wheels of the car have power. It can distribute the engine output torque in different proportions to all wheels according to the road conditions to improve the vehicle's driving capability. 2. It is generally represented by 4X4 or 4WD. If you see these marks on a car, it means the vehicle has four-wheel drive functionality. 3. Four-wheel drive systems are divided into two main categories: active and passive, but the purpose is only one, which is to transfer power from the spinning and slipping wheels and then redistribute it to the wheels with better traction.

What is the difference between gasoline grades?

The difference in gasoline grades lies in the varying octane ratings of the gasoline. Here is a detailed introduction to automotive gasoline: 1. Classification: Gasoline products can be divided into three main categories based on their use: aviation gasoline, automotive gasoline, and solvent gasoline. The first two are primarily used as fuel for gasoline engines and are widely used in cars, motorcycles, speedboats, helicopters, and agricultural and forestry aircraft. 2. Avoid mixing different grades: Mixing gasoline grades does not have a significant impact on the vehicle itself, but it is best to avoid mixing gasoline whenever possible. Since gasoline is a mixture, the gasoline grades we commonly encounter refer to different octane ratings. While the octane rating between two grades may not have a substantial effect on the engine, to ensure vehicle safety, it is advisable to avoid mixing gasoline grades.

What are the common faults after the transmission is submerged in water?

Common faults after the transmission is submerged in water are as follows: 1. Deterioration of automatic transmission fluid: Water entering the automatic transmission directly causes the automatic transmission fluid to deteriorate and oxidize, thereby reducing its friction coefficient. As a result, insufficient friction between vehicle components can lead to faults such as jerking, impact, and slipping in the automatic transmission. 2. Clutch damage: After water enters the automatic transmission, it not only damages the automatic transmission fluid but is also highly detrimental to the automatic transmission clutch plates. If the automatic transmission clutch is submerged in water and cannot be repaired, replacement is the only recommended solution, which will correspondingly increase the maintenance costs.

What does d1d2d3d4d5 mean?

Automatic transmission d1, d2, d3, d4, and d5 are equivalent to different gears. Here are the specific introductions: 1. d1: It manually locks the car's gear in first gear, not controlled by the car itself. 2. d2: It manually locks the gear in second gear, not exceeding second gear, allowing the car to automatically switch between first and second gears. 3. d3: It locks the gear in third gear, allowing the car to automatically switch among first, second, and third gears, but not exceeding third gear. In reality, these gears are rarely used. Except in extreme situations, some friends might think of using first gear for uphill driving or getting unstuck to increase traction. Actually, cars are not that dumb; they won't upshift under heavy load at low speeds.

What is the difference between blue, white, and yellow parking spaces?

Parking spaces are divided into three colors: blue, white, and yellow. Blue solid lines indicate roadside parking spaces that are free for extended periods, while dashed lines indicate time-limited free parking. White lines indicate roadside parking spaces that require payment, with some offering "free nighttime parking," and drivers must follow the instructions on roadside signs. Yellow solid lines generally indicate parking spaces reserved for special vehicles (such as fire trucks). Parking precautions: No parking in areas with no-parking signs: No-parking signs indicate that all vehicles are prohibited from parking temporarily or for extended periods within the designated area. No parking within yellow grid lines: Yellow grid lines indicate that parking is prohibited in this area for any reason. These are commonly found at intersections, entrances, and exits. Yellow solid lines: Parking is prohibited on roads with yellow solid lines. The length of the yellow solid line indicates the size of the no-parking zone. No parking near bus stops: Parking is prohibited in areas such as bus stops, gas stations, emergency stations, fire hydrants, etc. Penalties for illegal parking: If a motor vehicle is parked in violation of regulations and obstructs the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, the driver will be fined 200 yuan. If a motor vehicle is temporarily parked in violation of regulations, the driver will be fined 200 yuan. If a motor vehicle is parked or temporarily stopped at a location with no-parking signs or markings, the driver will be fined 100 yuan and receive 3 penalty points.
