What is the difference between Comfort mode and Auto mode in Audi A4L?

Audi A4L's Comfort mode and Auto mode differ in throttle sensitivity and driving behavior. Comfort mode: Comfort mode maintains driving pleasure while minimizing fuel consumption. In this mode, the transmission shifts gears when engine speed is below 2000 rpm, achieving optimal fuel efficiency. The throttle response is less sensitive, delivering power more gradually. Even with hard acceleration, the push-back feeling is barely noticeable. Auto mode: Auto mode adjusts engine speed and gear shifts according to actual road conditions, featuring flexible steering control and higher throttle sensitivity. The throttle response becomes noticeably sharper, delivering power that's neither too gentle nor too aggressive, making it easier to control. When fully depressing the accelerator, some push-back feeling can be experienced.

Can the Corolla continue to drive if the water pump makes abnormal noises?

Corolla cannot continue to drive if the water pump makes abnormal noises. If you continue driving, it will affect the water pump's operation, causing the coolant to stop circulating, which will lead to the engine overheating and potentially result in engine damage. Reasons for abnormal noises in the water pump: The noises generally come from the belt or bearings. If the belt is too tight, it can cause noise. If it's a bearing issue, minor problems may include lack of lubrication or corrosion due to coolant leakage, while severe cases could involve bearing breakage. Solutions: If the belt is too tight, adjust it. For bearing issues, remove the pump to clean off rust and apply lubricant. If the bearing is severely damaged, replace it with a new one.

What Causes the Engine RPM to Increase but the Vehicle Speed Not to Rise When Accelerating?

The reason why the engine RPM increases but the vehicle speed does not rise when accelerating depends on whether the engine is paired with a manual transmission or an automatic transmission. The fact that the RPM increases when the accelerator is pressed indicates that the engine's power operation is functioning properly. The inability to increase speed suggests that there is damage in the components transmitting power to the transmission. If a manual transmission is used, the common main causes are issues with the clutch or the transmission itself. The clutch acts as an intermediary for power transfer between the engine and the transmission. If the clutch friction plate is slipping, it can lead to a loss of power. Manual transmissions have high transmission efficiency. If the clutch is functioning correctly, possible faults could be related to the output shaft or the engagement gears of the selected gear. For automatic transmissions, a common main reason is the torque converter not locking up. Normally, when the engine RPM, vehicle speed, and throttle depth reach certain levels, the torque converter locks up. If it fails to lock up, it can result in the engine revving without the vehicle accelerating. This phenomenon is mainly observed in vehicles equipped with torque converters, such as all ATs and some CVTs. In this regard, dual-clutch transmissions perform much better. Solutions for high RPM without an increase in vehicle speed: First, check the level of the transmission hydraulic fluid. If the fluid level is too low or too high, it should be adjusted accordingly. Then, observe whether the transmission continues to slip. If slipping persists, inspect the quality of the hydraulic fluid. If the fluid appears dark brown or has a burnt smell, it indicates that the friction plates of the clutch or brake, or the brake bands, are burnt. In such cases, the transmission needs to be disassembled for repair. Additionally, a road test can be conducted to determine if the automatic transmission is faulty. Shift the gear lever into different positions and drive the vehicle. If the engine RPM suddenly increases when the automatic transmission shifts to a certain gear, but the vehicle speed does not rise accordingly, it indicates that the gear is slipping. The easier it is for the engine RPM to increase during slipping, the more severe the slipping is.
