The tire brand of the A4L is Michelin, which is known for its high safety characteristics. Taking the 2020 A4L as an example, it belongs to the mid-size car category with body dimensions of: length 4858mm, width 1847mm, height 1439mm, a wheelbase of 2908mm, a fuel tank capacity of 56 liters, and a curb weight of 1615kg. The 2020 A4L features a five-link independent front suspension and a five-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 190PS, a maximum power of 140kW, and a maximum torque of 320Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

My Audi A4L was purchased in 2021 and came with Michelin tires, which provide a stable and quiet ride. However, I recently chatted with a fellow A4L owner and discovered his car uses Bridgestone tires. So, tire brands can actually vary depending on the specific model and year. For example, the high-performance sports trim might come with Pirelli, while the comfort version often features Goodyear. If you want to know what tires your car has, a simple method is to park, crouch down, and check the sidewall of the tire—it’s engraved with the brand logo, like Michelin or Goodyear. Alternatively, flip open your owner’s manual to the vehicle specifications section. Tires are crucial for a German car like the A4L, affecting handling and safety, so it’s recommended to regularly check tire pressure and wear to avoid high-speed vibrations or blowouts. When choosing tires, don’t just focus on the brand; ensure they match your wheel size. Regular maintenance can extend their lifespan. In short, the most accurate way is to physically inspect them.

What are the reasons for the car not accelerating when the throttle is applied?

The reasons for the car not accelerating when the throttle is applied are as follows: 1. Clutch issues: If the clutch plate is excessively worn, the friction between the engine flywheel and the clutch plate decreases, causing slippage during operation. When accelerating, the engine's power cannot be fully transmitted through the clutch to the gearbox and wheels, as some of the power is consumed by slippage, resulting in an insignificant increase in speed when the throttle is applied. Another scenario is improper clutch travel adjustment leading to poor acceleration, such as when the clutch has insufficient or no free play, causing it to remain in a semi-engaged state, which also prevents the car from accelerating effectively. 2. Excessive carbon buildup: If there is too much carbon buildup on the engine's fuel injectors, spark plugs, or throttle valve, it affects the air-fuel mixture in the engine cylinders, making it too lean or too rich. When the combustible mixture does not burn completely, the engine's power output decreases, making it difficult to accelerate. Carbon buildup on the fuel injectors can lead to poor fuel atomization or even cause fuel to drip instead of atomizing. Issues like spark plugs not firing or firing weakly can also occur. All these factors can affect the car's ability to accelerate when the throttle is applied.

Where is the Transmission Fluid Filler Port Located?

Transmission fluid filler port is located on the transmission oil pan. For new vehicles under normal driving conditions using synthetic oil, the oil can typically be changed every 10,000 kilometers, and in some cases, it can even be extended up to 20,000 kilometers. Below is the relevant information: 1. Transmission Fluid: Transmission fluid is a lubricant that keeps the gear system clean, lubricates to prolong the life of the transmission components, and provides effective lubrication even under low-temperature conditions, reducing oil loss under harsh operating conditions. Depending on the transmission structure, transmission fluid is categorized into automatic transmission fluid and manual transmission fluid. 2. Oil Change: Under 'severe driving' conditions, engine wear is more significant, and the requirements for oil are higher. Therefore, it is recommended to shorten the oil change interval to effectively protect the engine. It is usually difficult to determine whether the oil needs to be changed by visual inspection or touch. However, after prolonged use, the oil accumulates a large amount of impurities. If the oil is not changed in time, these impurities will eventually wear down the engine and shorten the vehicle's lifespan.

What are the regulations for using temporary vehicle license plates?

Temporary license plate usage regulations are as follows: 1. Validity period: Temporary license plates have a limited validity period, not exceeding 30 days at most. For new vehicles, it should not exceed 15 days. Therefore, it is necessary to apply for formal license plates from the vehicle management authority within the validity period. After expiration, driving on the road will result in penalties such as vehicle impoundment, a fine of 200 yuan, and 12 points deduction. 2. Regional restrictions: In addition to time limits, temporary license plates also have regional restrictions. If it is a local temporary license plate, it can only be used within the local area. Using a local license plate across regions will also be punished. If you frequently travel long distances or cross regions, it is recommended to use a cross-regional temporary license plate. 3. Placement requirements: Temporary license plates usually come in two pieces, with functions similar to formal license plates. However, the placement positions are different. One temporary license plate should be placed in the lower left or right corner of the front windshield, and the other must be placed in the lower left corner of the rear windshield. They should not be placed randomly.

What does AT tire mean?

AT tires stand for All-Terrain tires. AT is the abbreviation of ALL-TERRAIN, which translates to all-terrain, indicating tires that balance both off-road and on-road performance. All-terrain tires feature a more rugged tread design, with slightly larger gaps between the tread blocks compared to highway tires, resulting in drawbacks such as reduced on-road performance and increased noise. However, AT tires surpass regular tires in durability and traction on unpaved surfaces, making them a balanced choice for both off-road and highway driving. Here is some additional information: 1. Off-road tires: Tires suitable for driving in the wild, typically including highway tires, all-terrain tires, mud tires, etc. 2. Highway tires: Highway tires are referred to as HT. Generally, off-road vehicles come equipped with neutral road pattern tires when leaving the factory, mainly designed for highway driving, characterized by softer sidewalls and finer tread patterns.

How to Determine the Remaining Charge of a Car Battery?

Use a voltmeter with a load to test the remaining charge of the battery. Here is relevant information: 1. Testing accuracy: Checking the battery's remaining charge solely with a voltmeter or the voltage setting of a multimeter without applying a load is difficult to achieve precise results. 2. Related load: When measuring voltage alone, the current consumption is minimal, so there is no significant voltage drop inside the battery, and the displayed voltage does not appear low. However, when applying a substantial load, such as turning on the headlights (load current 10–15A) or honking the horn (load current 6–12A), the battery will cause dim lights or a hoarse horn sound, indicating insufficient charge.

How to Determine if a Car is a Stock Vehicle

Methods to determine whether a car is a stock vehicle are as follows: 1. Check the odometer: Generally, a car with mileage not exceeding 50 kilometers is considered normal. A new car will inevitably accumulate some mileage during factory movement and relocation. If the mileage exceeds 100 kilometers, it indicates that the car might have been used for external exhibitions or test drive events. 2. Inspect rubber materials such as tires and sealing strips: The tires of a normal new car should have no damage on the sidewalls, and it's best if the tread hairs on both front and rear tires are intact. 3. Look at the manufacturer's plate: Every new car has a production date. When purchasing a car, pay attention to the production date. If it exceeds 3 months, the car is considered a stock vehicle.
