Xin Da Du EFI fault light illuminating three times indicates an electronic control fault in the engine. Introduction to automobile engines: The automobile engine is the device that provides power for the car, serving as the heart of the vehicle, determining its power, economy, stability, and environmental performance. Depending on the power source, automobile engines can be classified into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid engines, among others. Common gasoline and diesel engines are both reciprocating piston internal combustion engines, converting the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston movement and outputting power externally. Gasoline engines have high rotational speeds, are lightweight, produce less noise, are easy to start, and have low manufacturing costs. Diesel engines have a high compression ratio, high thermal efficiency, and better economic and emission performance than gasoline engines. Maintenance of automobile engines: Maintain good ventilation in the crankcase. Most gasoline engines today are equipped with a PCV valve, but contaminants from blow-by gases can deposit around the PCV valve, potentially clogging it. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly clean the contaminants around the PCV valve. Regularly change the oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. To avoid faults, the oil should be changed periodically based on usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, nitrogen oxides, and other substances from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Therefore, the crankcase should be cleaned regularly to maintain the cleanliness inside the engine.

Should New Cars Be Equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring?

New cars should be equipped with tire pressure monitoring. Benefits of installing tire pressure monitoring: It can promptly alert when there are dangerous signs in the tires, preventing serious accidents. It keeps the tires working within the specified pressure range, reducing tire damage and extending their lifespan. It protects the suspension system, reduces fuel consumption, and makes driving more economical. Therefore, new cars need tire pressure monitoring. More details are as follows: Abnormal tire pressure generally includes the following situations: Rapid air leakage, high pressure, low pressure, and high temperature. The indicator light turns on as a warning to the driver based on tire pressure and other issues. It may occur when encountering uneven road surfaces during driving, causing uneven tire pressure changes, which triggers the indicator light. Principle of tire pressure monitoring: Pressure sensors installed in each tire directly measure the tire pressure and display the data. When the tire pressure drops, it causes changes in vehicle speed, which can trigger the alarm system to warn the driver.

What are the consequences of insufficient transmission fluid?

If the automatic transmission lacks sufficient fluid, it will affect the oil pressure, leading to clutch plate damage and transmission wear. Hazards of excessive automatic transmission fluid level: The automatic transmission may leak oil externally: If the transmission fluid level is too high, the rotating components will come into contact with the fluid during operation. Under the high-speed rotation of components such as planetary gear mechanisms or clutters, the fluid will expand and boil, causing it to leak out from the filler hole and vent valve. It may cause shifting shock: Excessive air entering the fluid can also cause air blockage at the drain holes on the control valve body, leading to poor drainage and resulting in shifting shock. It may cause low working oil pressure: An excessively high automatic transmission fluid level allows the rotating components to reach the fluid, causing agitation and generating bubbles in the fluid. When the fluid with bubbles enters the oil pump, the pump cannot establish the required oil pressure. It reduces the cooling function and transmission efficiency of the transmission: The main functions of transmission fluid are lubrication and cooling. The transmission fluid dissipates heat through the transmission housing and transmission cooler. If too much fluid is added, the gears will encounter greater resistance during rotation, reducing the cooling function and transmission efficiency of the transmission. This requires the engine to consume more fuel, thereby decreasing the overall fuel economy of the vehicle.

What are the symptoms of CVT slippage?

The main manifestation of CVT transmission slippage is that when the accelerator is pressed, the engine speed increases, but the vehicle's acceleration feels weak. To put it vividly, it's like "the engine roars loudly but delivers little rain." At the same time, modern CVT transmissions are quite intelligent and will illuminate a fault warning light on the car's instrument cluster when slippage symptoms occur, alerting the driver. Reasons for CVT transmission slippage: Unlike conventional transmissions that transfer power through gear meshing, CVT transmissions rely solely on a steel belt. Therefore, when the vehicle is under excessive load, the steel belt is prone to slipping or even breaking. Solutions for CVT transmission slippage: To avoid this issue, owners can request the 4S dealership to check the CVTF (transmission fluid) degradation value using a computer during maintenance. If the degradation value divided by the total vehicle mileage is less than 2, it is still considered normal. However, if it exceeds 2, it is recommended to replace the transmission fluid.

Where is the fault when the ABS indicator light is on?

ABS fault light comes on for the following reasons: Reason 1: The sensing part of the ABS vehicle speed sensor is covered by dirt, mud or other contaminants, affecting the sensor's ability to detect the corresponding vehicle speed signal. This prevents the ABS computer from determining the vehicle speed and the wheel slip rate, thus failing to issue appropriate commands to adjust braking. Solution: Clean the dirt on the vehicle speed sensor and adjust the gap between the vehicle speed sensor and the signal gear ring to restore normal operation. Reason 2: Poor signal due to loose connections between system lines or poor contact of the ABS relay, leading to system failure. The most common scenario is a loose connection of the vehicle speed sensor wire plug, which causes a fault. In this case, the ABS computer's fault memory will also display a poor vehicle speed sensor signal. Solution: Check the line connections and reconnect any loose parts. When the ABS light comes on after starting the car, it indicates a fault in the vehicle's anti-lock braking system. The fault should be resolved before continuing to drive the vehicle.
