The origin of Mercedes is as follows: Time: March 1899, when Jellinek drove a Phoenix-brand car from Daimler Company and won the French Nice Tour Automobile Race. At that time, he participated in the race in the name of his daughter. After the race, he suggested that the cars produced by Daimler Company be named after his daughter's name, Mercedes. Daimler gladly accepted, and since then, Mercedes has been used as a brand trademark. Mercedes means gentle and elegant. Brand introduction: Daimler Company merged with Benz Company to form Daimler-Benz Automobile Company. Cars named Mercedes-Benz are the most perfect representatives of high-quality and high-performance automotive products. In addition to luxury cars, Benz Company is also the world's most famous manufacturer of buses and heavy-duty trucks. Mercedes-Benz is a company under the Daimler Group (Daimler-AG).

What is the valve clearance for Yuchai engines?

Yuchai engines come with an engine manual that specifies the valve clearance. If the manual is not available, you can adjust the intake valve to 0.3mm and the exhaust valve to 0.4mm. Valve clearance is set to ensure the proper functioning of the internal combustion engine's valve train, which operates at high speeds and elevated temperatures. The causes of valve leakage are as follows: 1. Poor contact between the valve head contact ring or valve seat: The contact ring may have spots or carbon deposits, or the contact angle with the valve may not meet the requirements, leading to poor sealing and leakage. 2. Excessive carbon buildup on the valve stem: This can hinder the smooth reciprocating motion of the valve, affecting its timely resealing and causing leakage. 3. Valve clearance being too small or other mechanical failures: This can lead to valve stem deformation, misalignment between the valve stem and its contact ring, resulting in leakage. 4. Fuel injection pump malfunction: This can cause poor fuel atomization or delayed injection timing, leading to burning of the contact ring between the valve and valve seat, thereby affecting the valve's sealing performance.

Does the Civic have a heated rearview mirror function?

Heated rearview mirror function of the Civic. The heated rearview mirror button of the Civic is located below the central control screen. There are two knobs below the central control screen. In the middle of the knobs, there is a row of buttons, and the heated rearview mirror button is the rightmost one. The heated rearview mirror is generally more suitable for rainy or snowy days. When the rearview mirror is heated, the heater behind the mirror quickly heats the mirror surface, slowly removing rainwater or fog from the mirror surface, saving the driver the trouble of frequently wiping the mirror manually, thereby reducing driving hazards. How to use the heated rearview mirror function: The heated rearview mirror function generally has two activation methods. One is combined with the electric rearview mirror adjustment function button—just rotate the knob to activate it. The other is set on the air conditioning control panel—press the heating button to activate it. There is no need to manually adjust the angle, as there is an adjustment button on the driver's side. Principle of the heated rearview mirror function: After pressing the button, the electric heater behind the rearview mirror glass will quickly heat up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, usually between 35-60 degrees. The heat will dissipate from the left and right rearview mirrors. At the same time, as the temperature rises and evaporates, the water droplets on the mirror surface will become smaller, and the fog will slowly disappear, thereby heating the mirror and removing frost. If the rain is particularly heavy, its effect will decrease, and the impact will not be obvious. Precautions for using the heated rearview mirror function: The principle of the heated rearview mirror is to add electric heating wires to the rearview mirror. The power consumption of the heating wires is very high. When using the heated rearview mirror function, ensure the car is in an ignited state. Try not to activate the heated rearview mirror function when the car is stationary to avoid insufficient battery power, which may prevent the car from starting. Other methods for defogging the rearview mirror include: Opening windows for convection: Open a small gap in the windows on both sides to create convection between the inside and outside air. As the temperature difference decreases, the fog will slowly disappear. Adjust the car's air conditioning to the appropriate setting to use the hot air blown by the air conditioning for defogging.

What are the effects of parking in neutral?

The impact of parking in neutral: If an automatic transmission car is parked in neutral for a long time, it will reduce the service life of the transmission. Here is the relevant information: 1. Hazards of parking in neutral: When parking in neutral, the parking pawl and gears in the transmission will struggle against each other, producing a loud noise and causing the car to shake. When shifting from N to other gears, it will be very difficult, and the sudden disengagement will cause a huge impact on the gears, so it is recommended to park in P. 2. Correct sequence: When parking, press the brake, shift to N, release the foot brake, engage the handbrake, shift to P, and finally turn off the engine. Regardless of the terrain, let the car level itself first or use the handbrake to firmly stabilize the car body before shifting to P and turning off the engine.

Should the VV6 use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?

The VV6 should use 92-octane gasoline, as this fuel grade is recommended in the vehicle's official owner's manual. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the owner's manual, the VV6's fuel cap will also indicate the recommended grade. Typically, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92-octane gasoline, while those with a ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95-octane gasoline. If the compression ratio is even higher, 98-octane gasoline is recommended. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the appropriate gasoline grade. High-compression engines can also be tuned to use lower-octane fuel, as factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline grade, the higher the octane rating and the better the anti-knock performance. 92-octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95-octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the VV6 occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switching back to the correct grade after consumption is sufficient. However, prolonged use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles designed for lower-octane fuel, using higher-octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increased octane rating alters the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This reduces both the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles designed for higher-octane fuel, using lower-octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. The significantly lower octane rating lowers the fuel's ignition point, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires, resistance is generated during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. Mild knocking may only increase noise without obvious engine damage, but severe knocking indicates serious engine issues, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, potentially leading to cylinder scuffing.
