The water level should be between the two lines marked on the reservoir. Below is relevant information about diesel engine coolant systems: 1. Function: To cool the engine by dissipating heat from water. In summer, it's necessary to use summer-grade antifreeze coolant, which has a boiling point around 108°C (higher than water) to prevent overheating. In winter, winter-grade antifreeze should be used to ensure the coolant doesn't freeze outdoors while still providing cooling. High-quality antifreeze can protect down to about -60°C. 2. Cleaning method: First, prepare a cleaning solution with 30kg water, 2.5kg caustic soda, and 0.6kg kerosene, then pour it into the coolant reservoir. Start the diesel engine and let it run at medium speed for about 10 minutes before shutting it off. After 10-12 hours, restart the engine and run at medium speed for another 10 minutes before shutting off and draining the cleaning solution. Add clean coolant water, start the engine, and let it run at medium speed for self-cleaning. Repeat this process 2-3 times to completely remove scale deposits.

Which on the fuel gauge, e or f, indicates full and which indicates empty?

On the fuel gauge, 'e' indicates that the fuel in the tank is insufficient, while 'f' indicates that the fuel in the tank is sufficient. The following are the impacts of low fuel levels: 1. Fuel sloshing causing the car to stall: When the fuel level in the tank is too low, fuel tends to slosh on bumpy or winding roads; 2. Fuel pump overheating: The fuel pump is cooled by the fuel. If the fuel level is too low, the cooling performance of the fuel pump decreases, accelerating the wear of internal components; 3. Clogging the fuel line: There are more impurities at the bottom of the tank. If the fuel level is too low, these impurities can enter the fuel supply system with the sloshing fuel, leading to clogged fuel lines. Additional information: When the car is low on fuel, the dashboard will illuminate a fuel warning light, which typically has the shape of a fuel tank.

Why Is the Engine of Mercedes-Benz E-Class So Noisy?

Mercedes-Benz E-Class engine noise is often caused by the car not being serviced for too long, leading to excessive carbon deposits in the engine. Timely maintenance is essential, as carbon buildup can also easily result in higher fuel consumption. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Carbon deposits: As old engine oil becomes thinner with use, carbon deposits accumulate more and more. Thinner oil can easily lead to oil leakage, causing more carbon buildup and significant power loss. When new oil is replaced, the engine may not adapt to the viscosity of the new oil, potentially increasing the engine speed and resulting in louder engine noise. 2. Sound insulation: If the engine sounds normal from outside but the noise feels excessive inside the car, it indicates poor vehicle sound insulation. Check the vehicle's sealing strips for signs of aging. Alternatively, improve the vehicle's sealing effect and test the noise level again. 3. Coolant: When the coolant temperature is too low, problems can arise, and the engine noise may increase. It should be checked and replaced to avoid other issues. 4. Shock absorbers: When the shock absorbers in the car malfunction, it can lead to increased engine noise.

What is a Car's Braking System?

An automobile braking system refers to a series of specialized devices that apply a certain force to specific parts of the vehicle (primarily the wheels) to enforce a certain degree of braking. 1. Function: To forcibly decelerate or even stop a moving vehicle as required by the driver; to keep a stationary vehicle stable under various road conditions (including on slopes); and to maintain a stable speed for a vehicle moving downhill. 2. Classification of Devices: (1) The service brake is operated by the driver's foot, hence also known as the foot brake. (2) The parking brake is operated by the driver's hand, hence also known as the hand brake. 3. Function of Devices: (1) The function of the service brake is to decelerate a moving vehicle or bring it to a stop within the shortest possible distance. (2) The function of the parking brake is to keep a vehicle stationary on various road surfaces.
