I just had my car's second maintenance service, and it felt quite different from the first service. The main tasks were changing the engine oil and oil filter, which are the basic items for every maintenance. Additionally, the air filter had to be replaced since it filters the engine's intake air, and a dirty one can affect performance. I also replaced the cabin air filter this time to avoid unpleasant odors inside the car, which isn't good for health. The mechanic also checked the brake pad thickness, measured the tire pressure, and cleaned out the small stones stuck in the tires. All the chassis bolts were tightened to prevent any unusual noises. Other fluids, including brake fluid and coolant, were checked to ensure they were at normal levels. Finally, the engine data was scanned with a computer to reset the maintenance reminder light. The whole process took about two hours, but afterward, I could clearly feel the throttle response became much smoother.

Should the RPM Be Raised to 2000 When Shifting from First to Second Gear?

When shifting from first to second gear, the RPM should be raised to 2000. The reasons for high RPM are: 1. Sudden increase in throttle opening; 2. Fuel injector leakage or blockage; 3. Slippage or damage to the air conditioning clutch; 4. Air intake system leakage; 5. Insufficient engine power output. Solutions for high RPM include: 1. Adjusting the throttle opening; 2. Replacing the fuel injector, air conditioning clutch, air intake system, or engine. The causes of unstable engine RPM are: 1. Oil residue or carbon buildup in the throttle; 2. Dirty intake tract; 3. Blockage in the fuel system, particularly the fuel injector; 4. Faulty intake manifold.

How to handle the u0100 trouble code?

u0100 trouble code is caused by the loss of communication between the control module or powertrain control module, mostly due to circuit failure. It is recommended that car owners go to a 4S shop for repair when encountering this fault. The engine control module, commonly referred to as the ECU, is the brain of the car engine. The ECU collects data from various sensors, processes it, and then controls the engine operation through actuators. Without the ECU, the engine cannot function properly. The ECU has self-diagnosis and protection functions. When a system fault occurs, it can automatically record the fault code in RAM and take protective measures, reading substitute programs from the inherent program to maintain engine operation. At the same time, these fault messages will be displayed on the dashboard and remain lit, allowing the car owner to detect the problem in time.
