BMW exhaust catalytic converter conversion failure is caused by a clogged or poisoned three-way catalytic converter. Here is some relevant information about the three-way catalytic converter: 1. Appearance: The three-way catalytic converter looks like a metal can from the outside, but it contains a 'carrier' inside for purifying exhaust gases. This honeycomb-shaped ceramic carrier is coated with a precious metal slurry, mainly composed of platinum, rhodium, and palladium. 2. Exhaust purification function: The precious metals act as purifying agents, reducing HC and CO in the exhaust gas into water and CO2, while decomposing NOx into nitrogen and oxygen. This is the exhaust purification function of the three-way catalytic converter.

How to Permanently Disable the Auto Start-Stop Function on a Buick?

To permanently disable the auto start-stop function on a Buick, follow these steps: 1. The auto start-stop function button is located below the quartz clock, marked with an 'A' surrounded by a circular arrow. This is the start-stop switch button, with the radar button positioned above it. Users who dislike this feature can manually turn it off. 2. It's important to note that the auto start-stop function is enabled by default every time the vehicle is started. Under normal conditions where signals such as engine coolant temperature, battery voltage, closed doors, closed hood, and turned-off air conditioning are all normal, the engine will shut off when the vehicle comes to a complete stop (speed at 0) after driving a certain distance. The engine will restart upon releasing the brake pedal.

What does SYNC on the Magotan's air conditioning mean?

The SYNC on the Magotan is a synchronized temperature control button. Below is an introduction to SYNC: 1. The SYNC button is primarily used to cancel the synchronized temperature control of the dual-zone air conditioning. 2. SYNC is the button that cancels the synchronized temperature on both sides, allowing the temperatures on each side to be set independently. 3. Whenever the temperatures on both sides are different, the SYNC button will light up. Pressing SYNC at this time will immediately synchronize the passenger side's air conditioning temperature to match the driver's side. Then, adjusting the passenger side's temperature knob will change the temperature, and the SYNC button will light up again. The passenger side's temperature will follow the driver's side's temperature changes, but the driver's side will not be affected by the passenger side's temperature adjustments.
