Why Do Both Sides of the Front of the Car Get Hot?

The engine itself operates at very high temperatures. If the front hood becomes very hot after driving for a while, but the dashboard shows normal coolant temperature, this is a normal situation. However, if the engine temperature remains excessively high, you should stop and inspect the vehicle as soon as possible to rule out any faults causing abnormal engine temperature. Methods to troubleshoot engine overheating are as follows: 1. Check if the coolant temperature gauge is malfunctioning or inaccurate: If the gauge is functioning normally, inspect whether the coolant temperature sensor and thermostat are working properly. Generally, if these components are damaged or malfunctioning, engine overheating can be one of the symptoms, often accompanied by changes in fuel consumption and difficulty starting the engine. 2. Check if the coolant level is normal: If the coolant is too low or leaking, it will naturally cause the engine temperature to rise, potentially leading to severe overheating ("boiling over"). This can also affect the strength of various engine components, disrupting normal clearances. Minor cases may result in cylinder or bearing damage, while severe cases can lead to complete engine failure or scrapping. 3. Check if the car's cooling fan is working properly: The fan is installed near the engine compartment side, behind the radiator. If the fan stops working, the radiator cannot be cooled effectively, and over time, the temperature will rise, leading to engine overheating.

Can the Trunk Hold 200 Kilograms of Cargo?

Different vehicles come with different trunk capacities, but generally, they can hold around 200kg to 300kg. Under normal circumstances (with only the driver in the car), the trunk can accommodate items not exceeding 200 kilograms. Carrying excessively heavy loads for extended periods can significantly increase fuel consumption, reduce vehicle stability, and accelerate tire wear. It is generally advisable to avoid overloading the trunk. Below is additional information on the effects of long-term storage of heavy items in the trunk: Increased Fuel Consumption: The most noticeable effect of carrying heavy items in the trunk for a long time is the added weight. A vehicle's weight is directly related to fuel consumption, and increased weight leads to higher fuel usage. Typically, for the same vehicle, a 10% increase in weight results in approximately 5% more fuel consumption during driving. The trunk's load has a significant impact on the vehicle's fuel efficiency. Impact on the Vehicle's Suspension System: Long-term storage of heavy items in the trunk puts constant pressure on the rear wheels, which can affect the suspension system. This may lead to issues such as oil leaks or reduced performance in the shock absorbers, increasing the likelihood of damage over time. Additionally, the uneven pressure on the front and rear suspension can pose safety risks, especially at high speeds. Furthermore, drivers may notice reduced acceleration when starting the vehicle, a phenomenon particularly evident in smaller-displacement cars.

How Long Are Vehicle Scrappage Indicators Retained?

Vehicle scrappage indicators are retained for 6 months. Below is an introduction regarding scrapped vehicles: 1. Introduction: A scrapped vehicle refers to one that has reached a certain service life or, due to other reasons, is severely damaged or in poor technical condition, cannot be repaired, exceeds the national standard fuel consumption by 50%, and is mandatorily scrapped according to government regulations. 2. Service Life: According to the Ministry of Commerce website, the Ministry of Commerce, National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Public Security, and Ministry of Environmental Protection jointly issued the "Regulations on Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles," which was reviewed and approved at the 68th ministerial meeting of the Ministry of Commerce on August 24, 2012, and came into effect on May 1, 2013. Among them, small and micro rental passenger vehicles have a service life of 8 years, medium rental passenger vehicles 10 years, large rental passenger vehicles 12 years, and rental passenger vehicles 15 years. 3. Procedure: Apply at the registration and acceptance counter, which will issue a "Vehicle Scrappage Notice" for vehicles that have reached the scrapping age. For vehicles that have not reached the scrapping age, after inspection and confirmation by the motor vehicle inspection counter that they meet the scrapping standards, a "Vehicle Scrappage Notice" will be issued.

What is an Unlimited Launch Transmission?

An unlimited launch transmission actually refers to Porsche's PDK dual-clutch transmission. This transmission can perform multiple launch starts without any overheating issues, which is why many car owners refer to the PDK dual-clutch transmission as the unlimited launch transmission. The PDK dual-clutch transmission was jointly developed by Porsche and Germany's ZF Group, emphasizing heat dissipation and stability. In a dual-clutch transmission, one clutch controls the odd-numbered gears, while the other controls the even-numbered gears. This type of transmission offers fast gear shifts and high transmission efficiency. There are two types of dual-clutch transmissions: dry dual-clutch and wet dual-clutch.

What is the mileage for the break-in period of a new car?

The break-in period mileage for a new car is approximately 500 kilometers. Extended relevant information is as follows: 1. Within 500 kilometers: During this range, the break-in period requires the engine speed to be kept below 2,000 RPM, and the speed should not be too fast, maintaining around 60-70 km/h. 2. After 500 kilometers: After exceeding 500 kilometers, the speed and engine RPM during the break-in period should also be increased accordingly, to around 90-100 km/h, with the engine speed maintained below 2,500 RPM. 3. First maintenance: The first maintenance for a new car should be performed between 1,500 to 5,000 kilometers.

What is the solution for the malfunctioning remote key of Corolla?

Introduction to solutions for the malfunctioning remote key of Corolla: 1. Insufficient battery power: A dead battery can also cause a situation similar to remote malfunction. Replace the key battery to see if the situation improves. 2. Internal moisture or dirt oxidation: Open the key shell, remove the battery, clean it thoroughly, and reassemble to test if it works normally. 3. Poor contact on the circuit board: Soldering is required, and it is best to take it to a professional electrical repair or mobile phone repair shop for handling. 4. Damage to the signal processor: The signals sent by the key and received by the antenna are both handed over to the processor for verification. The processor acts as the core hub of this system. If it is damaged, the remote function will become ineffective. To solve this fault, replace the processor module and match it to resolve the issue.
