Audi S3 uses a dual-clutch transmission with the model number DQ381. The structure of the dual-clutch transmission is very similar to that of a manual transmission, featuring two sets of clutches responsible for switching between even and odd gears, significantly improving gear shifting speed. The clutch, located between the engine and the transmission, acts as a switch for power transmission between them, capable of both transmitting and cutting off power. The interior of the Audi S3 features a three-spoke sports steering wheel and off-white dashboard needles, combined with an all-black interior, giving the car's cabin a strong sporty style. The center console is equipped with an arch surrounding the dashboard, making the control panel operation simple and straightforward, while the rounded vents and air conditioning design are also very appealing.

Where is the windshield washer fluid reservoir located on the Geely Emgrand GS?

Geely Emgrand windshield washer fluid reservoir is located at the lower left side of the engine compartment. Below is an introduction to the functions of windshield washer fluid: 1. Cleaning performance: Windshield cleaner is composed of various surfactants and additives. Surfactants typically have wetting, penetrating, and solubilizing functions, thereby achieving cleaning and stain removal effects. 2. Antifreeze performance: The presence of alcohol and ethylene glycol can significantly lower the freezing point of the liquid, providing antifreeze protection and quickly dissolving frost. 3. Anti-fog performance: A monomolecular protective layer forms on the glass surface, preventing the formation of fog droplets and ensuring clear visibility through the windshield. 4. Anti-static performance: After cleaning with windshield cleaner, substances adsorbed on the glass surface can eliminate static charges on the glass. 5. Lubrication performance: The ethylene glycol content in windshield cleaner provides viscosity that acts as a lubricant, reducing friction between wipers and glass to prevent scratches.

What Causes the Steering Wheel to Make Noise When Turned to a Certain Angle?

Reasons for noise when the steering wheel is turned to a certain angle: Turn signal reset sound: When the turn signal is activated while turning, the noise may come from the rebound clip of the automatic turn signal reset mechanism, which is normal. Steering column dust cover sound: If the noise comes from below the steering wheel, it may be due to the steering column dust cover. Lack of lubrication in the dust cover can cause friction noise. Applying some grease inside the dust cover can resolve the issue. Noise from inside the steering wheel: This could be caused by the clock spring (airbag spiral cable) inside the steering wheel. Removing the steering wheel and applying grease to the clock spring can fix it. Note: Disconnect the airbag fuse before removing the steering wheel to prevent accidental airbag deployment. Stabilizer bar noise: Check if the stabilizer bar bushings are loose or damaged. Loose or damaged bushings can cause noise not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving on uneven roads. Loose bushings can be fixed by adding shims.

What Causes Loud Engine Noise in a New Motorcycle?

Reasons for loud engine noise in a new motorcycle: Backfire sound: The noise is loud but not continuous. It manifests as the exhaust pipe backfiring and overheating during engine operation. The main cause of this phenomenon is an excessively small ignition advance angle, resulting in incomplete combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. When the unburned mixture encounters heat in the exhaust pipe and spontaneously ignites or is ignited by a spark, it combusts and explodes, producing the backfire sound. Knocking sound: When the engine is running, using a "stethoscope" to touch the cylinder head reveals a sound similar to a wooden hammer striking, which is more noticeable at low speeds or when adjusting the throttle. This knocking sound is mainly caused by detonation or pre-ignition due to an excessively large ignition advance angle, excessive carbon buildup in the combustion chamber, or an overly high compression ratio. Misfire sound: This manifests as occasional one or two misfire sounds in the otherwise even and rhythmic exhaust noise during engine operation. This phenomenon is mainly caused by the sound produced by burnt or excessively small contact gaps in the breaker points.
