Automotive urea freezing can be addressed by: adding a vehicle urea modifier to lower the freezing point of the urea solution, or using an external heating device to thaw it. Northern version vehicles equipped with SCR systems come with a built-in urea tank thawing and heating function. When the engine coolant temperature reaches 60 degrees Celsius and the urea solution temperature is below minus 5 degrees Celsius, the system will not inject urea solution in low-temperature conditions, thereby providing sufficient time to thaw the crystallized urea solution. Automotive urea is used in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system of diesel vehicles to catalytically reduce nitrogen oxides in the exhaust into harmless nitrogen and water, thereby reducing nitrogen oxide emissions from diesel engines, offering energy-saving and environmental benefits.

How to Deal with a Flooded Diesel Engine?

Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery as soon as possible to prevent short circuits in the vehicle's electrical components due to water ingress. Check if water has entered the engine oil, as this can cause the oil to deteriorate and lose its lubricating properties, leading to excessive engine wear. Inspect the transmission for water ingress, as water in the transmission can cause the gear oil to deteriorate, resulting in gear wear. Check if the battery is fully submerged in water and replace the electrolyte if necessary. For vehicles with automatic transmissions, inspect both the automatic transmission and the transmission control computer for water damage.

How Many Layers Does Automotive Paint Have?

Automotive paint consists of four layers, from the inside out: the electrocoat layer, the primer layer, the basecoat layer, and the clearcoat layer. The electrocoat layer can be roughly considered as the paint layer directly attached to the car body steel plate, also known as the primer. The primer layer is an intermediate layer between the electrocoat and the basecoat, with relatively simple functions, including UV resistance, protection of the electrocoat, improved rust resistance, and ensuring the smoothness and impact resistance of the paint surface. The basecoat layer is the colored paint layer, providing consumers with direct color perception. The clearcoat layer is the surface of the car paint, which is a transparent layer that can be directly touched with fingertips.
