Engine misfire requires replacement of cylinder liners, pistons, etc. Causes of cylinder scoring: Severe piston misalignment, cylinder liner roundness and cylindricity tolerances exceeding allowable ranges, greatly reducing the sealing between pistons and cylinder liners. High-temperature gases in the cylinder leak downwards, destroying the oil film between pistons and cylinder walls, leading to cylinder scoring and poor break-in. Engine misfire: Engine misfire refers to insufficient power caused by engine failure, resulting in lack of power where a minority of cylinders in the total number are not functioning. Engine misfire shortens the lubrication oil usage cycle, easily causes sudden stalling, increases fuel consumption, produces black smoke, and results in power loss.

Last time I experienced severe engine misfire and shaking. During the repair, all four ignition coils and a set of spark plugs were replaced. The mechanic said these are the most prone to failure. If the fuel injectors get clogged, they need cleaning or replacement. For older cars, it's also necessary to check if the ignition wires have aged. In severe cases, the engine might need disassembly to replace valve seals, piston rings, and even the cylinder head gasket. As a reminder, after repairs, the ECU data needs to be matched, otherwise it might trigger fault codes. Regular maintenance is crucial - don't wait until it shakes like a tractor before getting it fixed.

Dealing with a misfire requires a step-by-step approach. First, read the fault codes to identify which cylinder is affected. In most cases, simply replacing the ignition coil or spark plug will suffice. However, if the fuel injector is clogged, it needs cleaning or replacement. If a cylinder pressure test shows insufficient pressure, it's likely the piston rings or valves need replacing. For corroded wiring connectors, replace the entire wiring harness—this is especially important for older vehicles. Remember, all seals must be renewed to prevent oil leaks. Always opt for genuine OEM parts, as aftermarket parts won't last.

From my experience, it's best to prioritize replacing the spark plugs—they're cheap and yield quick results. The ignition coils have a high failure rate, so it's advisable to replace all four. If the fuel injectors are clogged, soaking them in a specialized cleaning solution might salvage them. In case of internal engine damage, a major overhaul is necessary: replacing piston rings, valve springs, and the entire cylinder head gasket set. A reminder not to overlook the fuel filter; clogging can also cause misfires, and it should be replaced every 20,000 kilometers.

What is the reason for the loud noise when a BMW is just started?

BMW starts with a loud noise because the engine is cold when it is just started. Caused by engine carbon deposits: As the old engine oil becomes thinner with use, carbon deposits accumulate more and more. Thinner engine oil is prone to leakage, leading to increasing carbon deposits and a significant loss of power. When new engine oil is replaced, the engine may not adapt to the viscosity of the oil, which can cause the engine to rev higher, resulting in louder engine noise. Solution: Regularly taking the car to a 4S shop for necessary cleaning of the intake system is the most effective way to reduce carbon deposit formation. It is recommended to perform necessary cleaning of the car's intake system at around 30,000 kilometers.

How to Check Reference Points for Reverse Parking?

Here are the methods for checking reference points during reverse parking: 1. Method One: Ensure the car body is parallel and close to the outer edge line of the parking space, maintaining a distance between 1.5m to 2m. At this point, your shoulder should align with the horizontal edge line. 2. Method Two: When turning the steering wheel, do it quickly and accurately (fast and precise), as preparing the direction in advance helps you locate the correct point, laying the foundation for successful parking. 3. Method Three: While reversing, when the frame at the lower edge of the left rearview mirror aligns with the horizontal white line, quickly and accurately turn the steering wheel to the full lock. Control the speed and focus on the right rearview mirror. When the distance between the parking corner and the car body in the mirror is three centimeters, turn the steering wheel back to straighten the direction.

Should Older Magotan Models Use 92 or 95 Octane Gasoline?

Older Magotan models should use 95 octane gasoline. Detailed reasons why older Magotan models require 95 octane gasoline: The Volkswagen Magotan's direct-injection engine has higher fuel requirements, so using lower-grade 92 octane gasoline should be avoided to prevent premature engine carbon buildup and knocking. The Volkswagen Magotan has continuously evolved internally and externally to meet current automotive needs, making significant changes in areas like vehicle connectivity, practical configurations, and new energy requirements. Differences between 92 and 95 octane gasoline: The difference between 92 and 95 octane gasoline lies not in quality but in their iso-octane content, which affects their anti-knock properties. 95 octane gasoline contains higher iso-octane levels, making it slightly more expensive but providing better anti-knock performance. Different anti-knock properties suit engines with varying compression ratios: high-compression engines require 95 octane gasoline, while low-compression engines can use 92 octane.
