It may be caused by a problem with the spark plugs. Introduction to the Axela: The Mazda3 Axela is a car produced by Changan Mazda. It is the third model to adopt the new-generation "SKYACTIV" technology and the "KODO—Soul of Motion" design theme, and it made its debut at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show. Configuration of the Axela: This model is equipped with two SKYACTIV-G gasoline engines: the "SKYACTIV-G-1.5L," which was introduced to the Chinese market for the first time, and the high-efficiency "SKYACTIV-G-2.0L." Based on an advanced human-machine interface that prioritizes driving safety, this model is the first to feature the "MZD Connect" Mazda Connect system.

I've driven the Mazda3 Axela for three years and encountered similar issues. Engine shaking is usually related to several areas. The most common cause is severe carbon buildup in the engine, especially in direct injection vehicles where carbon tends to accumulate on the back of the valves, leading to uneven air-fuel mixture. During my last maintenance, the mechanic had me clean the throttle body and fuel injectors, which significantly reduced the shaking. Worn spark plugs are another common reason - the factory iridium spark plugs need inspection around 40,000 km. Deteriorated engine mounts can transmit vibrations into the cabin, especially noticeable during cold starts. If shaking worsens when the fuel tank is down to 1/4, it might indicate a clogged fuel filter. I recommend reading the trouble codes first - if it shows multiple cylinder misfires, try switching to 95 octane fuel at a different gas station.

Does the Dash Cam Still Work When the Car Is Off?

This is not certain and depends on the power source it's connected to. 1. Connected to the cigarette lighter: If the cigarette lighter still has power after the car is turned off, the dash cam will continue to work. If the cigarette lighter loses power after the car is turned off, the dash cam will shut down and stop working. 2. Connected to the ACC power source: The dash cam will automatically turn on when the car key is turned to ACC or when the engine is started. If the car is turned off but remains in the ACC position, the dash cam will still work normally. 3. Connected to constant power: It will work 24 hours a day. 4. Another scenario is that the dash cam has its own battery. Even if the car doesn't supply power, the dash cam will continue to work if not turned off when exiting the car, until the battery is depleted.

What is the wading depth of the Wrangler Sahara?

The wading depth of the Wrangler Sahara is over 700mm. When the water depth is one-third of the tire height, you can safely pass through without causing unnecessary damage as long as you operate correctly. When the water depth exceeds half of the tire height, you should be cautious, as this can easily lead to water entering the vehicle. If the wading depth exceeds the bumper, you should remain vigilant while driving to avoid water entering the engine. Below are some precautions for driving in the rain: 1. Slow down: Regardless of the road width or condition, drive slowly in the rain, always paying attention to the distance between vehicles ahead and behind, and be prepared to take emergency measures. Visibility is low in the rain, and the vehicle's braking distance and other emergency performance may be reduced, so slow down in advance to allow sufficient time and space to handle situations safely. 2. Maintain distance: Visibility is impaired while driving in the rain, so maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, constantly observing the distance ahead and behind, and increase the safety margin. Stay especially far away from large vehicles, as they can block your view and may pass through water that smaller vehicles cannot, and they can splash water, interfering with smaller vehicles. 3. Use fog lights: Make full use of fog lights to enhance driving safety in the rain, and turn on hazard warning lights if necessary to ensure that vehicles behind are aware of your movements. 4. Do not restart if stalled: In heavy rain or storms, some roads may flood quickly. If you must wade through water, use a low gear and maintain a steady speed. If the vehicle stalls while moving, do not attempt to restart it immediately, as this could severely damage the engine. Instead, contact a professional repair shop, and only restart the vehicle after a technician has inspected it and confirmed it is safe.
