The 1.5T engine in the GM6 is paired with a conventional 6-speed automatic manual transmission. A transmission is a mechanism used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, capable of fixed or stepped changes in the gear ratio between the output and input shafts. Also known as a gearbox, the transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism. When needed, a power take-off can be added. Transmissions are classified in two ways: by the method of gear ratio change and by the type of control. The functions of a transmission are: 1. To change the gear ratio, expanding the range of torque and speed variation of the driving wheels to adapt to constantly changing driving conditions, while allowing the engine to operate under favorable conditions; 2. To enable the vehicle to reverse while maintaining the engine's rotational direction; 3. To use neutral gear to interrupt power transmission, allowing the engine to start, idle, and facilitating gear shifts or power output.

Why does the engine still make noise after the car is turned off?

The reason the engine still makes noise after the car is turned off is that the engine cooling system is still working. To prevent the engine or turbocharger from overheating, vehicles are equipped with a delayed cooling function. This function operates based on the water temperature measured by sensors and will continue working until the water temperature drops within the set range. Reasons for abnormal noises from the engine when turning off the car include: 1. Cooling noise from the three-way catalytic converter: The normal operating temperature of the three-way catalytic converter is 400-800°C. After turning off the engine, its operation gradually stops, and the temperature decreases, causing the internal metal components to expand and contract, resulting in abnormal noises. 2. Cooling noise from the exhaust pipe: Typically, the exhaust pipe can reach a temperature of over 200°C during cold idle. If the vehicle is under high load or if there is combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the exhaust pipe, the temperature can be even higher, leading to thermal expansion and contraction of the exhaust pipe and causing abnormal noises. 3. Water pump noise: Water pump noise is mainly caused by the pump wheel bearing of the water pump. Due to prolonged operation, erosion by coolant, and scale buildup, the water pump blade bearing can become severely worn. If the issue is not addressed for a long time, it can lead to complete failure of the water pump, where the pump operates but fails to circulate coolant, thereby affecting engine cooling.

What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the BMW M2 Competition?

According to official data, the BMW M2 Competition has a 3.0T displacement and achieves 0-100 km/h acceleration in 4.2 seconds. Factors affecting vehicle acceleration time from 0-100 km/h are as follows: Torque: Torque essentially represents the strength of the force. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, resulting naturally in faster acceleration. The BMW M2 Competition has a maximum torque of 550 N·m, achieving 0-100 km/h in 4.2 seconds. In comparison, the Jaguar F-TYPE has a torque of 400 N·m and achieves 0-100 km/h in 5.7 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as the medium for power transfer, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The BMW M2 Competition is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is referred to as the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The BMW M2 Competition has a power-to-weight ratio of 231.97 Hp/T, achieving 0-100 km/h in 4.2 seconds. The Jaguar F-TYPE has a power-to-weight ratio of 181.27 kg/PS, achieving 0-100 km/h in 5.7 seconds.

Should MG 6 Use 92 or 95 Octane Gasoline?

The MG 6 model is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine. Normally, it can use 92 octane gasoline, but 95 octane gasoline is recommended to prevent engine knocking. Different octane ratings of gasoline have varying levels of octane values—the higher the octane rating, the better the anti-knock performance. The differences between 92 and 95 octane gasoline are as follows: 1. It is often said that 95 octane gasoline is more fuel-efficient than 92 octane, which is not entirely baseless. This is particularly evident in turbocharged or high-compression ratio engines, where energy conversion is more efficient. However, for naturally aspirated engines, 95 octane offers little advantage. 2. Using 95 octane gasoline helps prevent knocking and allows for higher gear driving due to sufficient power. For example, 95 octane gasoline may enable driving in 5th gear, while 92 octane might cause knocking and incomplete combustion, limiting the vehicle to 4th gear. In such cases, 95 octane gasoline proves more fuel-efficient. 3. Typically, the same amount of 95 octane gasoline allows for slightly longer distances than 92 octane, but the cost is higher—95 octane is about 9% more expensive than 92 octane. For turbocharged engines, 95 octane gasoline may extend the driving distance by up to 3% compared to 92 octane. However, paying 9% more for a 3% increase in distance means that, for the same distance, 95 octane gasoline costs about 6% more.

What are the precautions for driving through water in summer?

Here are the precautions for driving through water in summer: 1. When driving through water: Carefully assess the water's depth, flow speed, bottom condition, as well as the width of the entry and exit areas and road conditions to determine if it's safe to pass. The simplest and most direct method is to refer to nearby vehicles; generally, the water should not exceed half the height of the wheel hub. Owners should be aware of their vehicle's engine air intake height from the ground, using this as the maximum wading limit. 2. When confirming the vehicle can pass: Choose the shortest route with the shallowest water level, slowest flow, and firmest bottom. Engage a low gear and slowly enter the water. While driving, keep the steering wheel steady and maintain a stable throttle to ensure the vehicle has sufficient and consistent power to pass through in one go. Avoid stopping, shifting gears, or making sharp turns midway to prevent driving into excessively deep water. 3. When the bottom is sandy or muddy: If the wheels slip or sink, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal hard to "power through." Instead, with the engine still running, seek assistance from people or other vehicles to help drive out of the water. Since water pressure is much lower than the engine's exhaust pressure, as long as the engine doesn't stall, water won't flow back into the exhaust. 4. If the water level is close to the vehicle's air intake position: Stop immediately. Do not follow other vehicles too closely or drive through water with multiple vehicles at the same time, as this can create waves that may destabilize the vehicle or cause water to directly impact the air intake.

Why does the Audi A4 air conditioning suddenly stop cooling?

The reasons why the Audi A4 air conditioning suddenly stops cooling are as follows: 1. Insufficient refrigerant caused by too little refrigerant. The reason is a slight leakage of refrigerant in the system. When there is insufficient refrigerant in the air conditioning system, the amount of refrigerant sprayed into the evaporator by the expansion valve will decrease accordingly. As the refrigerant evaporates in the evaporator, the amount of heat absorbed decreases, leading to a reduction in cooling capacity. 2. Insufficient cooling caused by excessive refrigerant. This occurs when too much refrigerant is added during maintenance. The proportion of refrigerant in the air conditioning system must meet certain requirements. If the proportion is too high, it affects heat dissipation, meaning more heat dissipation results in greater cooling capacity. 3. Compressor issues. The compressor in the air conditioning system has a clutch, and the compressor operates when the clutch engages. If the compressor is damaged and cannot switch to the engaged state, the air conditioning will not cool. If the refrigerant is sufficient but the air conditioning still does not cool, the compressor may have stopped working, requiring repair or replacement. 4. Air in the system. If air enters the air conditioning system, it can cause excessive pressure in the refrigerant lines or poor refrigerant circulation, leading to insufficient cooling. This may be due to a decline in the sealing performance of the refrigeration system or incomplete vacuuming during maintenance. Solutions: 1. If the vehicle's air conditioning does not cool, check whether the air conditioning pump can start and operate normally, and verify whether the refrigerant level is normal. If the air conditioning pump cannot start, there may be an issue with the related control circuit or the system may lack refrigerant, causing the pump to enter a protective state. 2. You can determine the issue by connecting a pressure gauge to observe the working pressure of the high and low-pressure lines. Additionally, the refrigerant level can be visually checked through the observation window on the high-pressure line. It is recommended to have a professional perform the inspection and repair.
