Open the hoods of both vehicles and the protective covers of the batteries to expose the positive and negative terminals. Use jumper cables to connect the battery of another vehicle to charge the Audi's battery. After starting the dead vehicle, remove the jumper cables and let the vehicle run for at least ten minutes to ensure it starts properly.

Why Won't the Car Start Even After a Jump Start?

Severely Depleted Battery: This occurs when the battery is too deeply discharged and hasn't had sufficient charging time. You can try running the rescue vehicle for about 10 minutes before attempting to start the dead vehicle. After successful startup, keep the previously dead vehicle running for approximately 30 minutes to allow the alternator to recharge the battery. If it still won't start, consider the possibility of a starter motor failure. Below is relevant information: 1. Use Dedicated Jumper Cables: When performing a jump start, it's best to use dedicated automotive jumper cables. Never use homemade cables or poor-quality jumper cables for this purpose. 2. Proper Connection Sequence: When connecting the cables, always follow the correct sequence - connect the positive terminal first, then the negative. Additionally, ensure the positive and negative cable clamps never touch each other, and the positive cable clamp must not come into contact with any metal parts of the vehicle.

What to Do When the Car Chassis is Scraped?

When the car chassis is scraped, the chassis should be inspected. Here are some introductions about the car chassis: 1. Prevention: When the car is designed, the chassis has a certain impact resistance. The most vulnerable parts of the car chassis are various pipes, such as brake hydraulic pipes and fuel pipes, but these pipes are hidden and protected in the grooves of the chassis steel plate and will not be higher than the horizontal plane of the chassis. 2. Impact with the ground: If the chassis hits protruding stones on the ground, the impact contact surface is point-like, and the protruding stones are likely to touch the pipes in the grooves, causing oil or fluid leakage, which is quite harmful. You can drive the car to a repair shop and have the car lifted for a thorough inspection of the chassis.

Can Tap Water Be Used as Windshield Washer Fluid?

Tap water should not be used as windshield washer fluid. Here are some key points about windshield washer fluid: 1. Reason: Tap water contains many impurities. With prolonged use, these impurities can accumulate on the rubber spray tubes, affecting normal spraying. Windshield washer fluid is formulated with various surfactants and additives. 2. Tap water: Tap water can only superficially clean dust off car windows and lacks effective cleaning power against stubborn dirt and grime on windshields. When impurities in tap water come into contact with the glass and are rubbed back and forth by wiper blades, they may cause scratches on the glass.

Does a six-year-old vehicle need to undergo an on-site inspection for annual review?

For the sixth-year annual inspection, the vehicle must undergo an on-site inspection. Assuming the vehicle meets the exemption criteria, if the vehicle's inspection period is 2014, then within the six-year period from 2014 to 2019, it can enjoy two exemption from on-site inspections, only requiring the application for an annual inspection sticker every two years (2014-2015 as the first cycle, 2016-2017 as the second cycle). By the sixth year (i.e., this year), it means the vehicle is no longer within the exemption scope and must undergo an on-site inspection, along with applying for the annual inspection sticker. In summary, a vehicle exactly six years old requires the same annual inspection process as normal: drive the vehicle to the inspection station with ID, vehicle registration, vehicle and vessel tax or exemption certificate, and compulsory insurance policy for inspection. Upon passing, a certification form will be issued, which, along with the other documents, must be submitted at the relevant counter to receive the annual inspection sticker. Annual inspection cycle regulations for vehicle types: 1. Passenger transport vehicles: inspected once a year within 5 years; inspected every 6 months after 5 years; 2. Light-duty trucks and large/medium-sized non-passenger transport vehicles: inspected once a year within 10 years; inspected every 6 months after 10 years; 3. Small and mini non-passenger transport vehicles: inspected once every 2 years within 6 years, only requiring the collection of an inspection sticker if meeting exemption criteria. Starting from November 20 this year, 7-9 seat non-passenger mini and micro buses (excluding trucks) are included in the exemption scope.

What are the common faults in the ignition system?

Common faults in the ignition system include spark plug failure, delayed ignition, and premature ignition. Below is a partial introduction to common ignition system faults: 1. Spark plug failure: The tip, electrode, and spark plug shell are often covered with a thick layer of soft, black-gray powdery deposits. The symptom of this fault is that the insulator tip, electrode, and spark plug shell are coated with engine oil. 2. Delayed ignition: The symptoms include a heavy sound from the muffler, backfiring in the carburetor during rapid acceleration, high engine coolant temperature, and weak vehicle performance. If the ignition timing is incorrect, it can be adjusted to the specified value. 3. Premature ignition: The symptoms include unstable idle operation, easy stalling, and severe engine knocking sounds during acceleration.
