What is the reason for increased vibration after replacing new engine mounts?

The reason for increased vibration after replacing new engine mounts is that the engine mount cushions were not replaced simultaneously. There are three engine mount cushions in total. If only one is replaced, it disrupts the original vibration damping balance, which can cause the vehicle to vibrate more. Alternatively, the mount cushions may be unsuitable. Some vehicle models require specialized mount cushions, and if the cushions are not suitable, they cannot provide effective vibration damping, naturally resulting in more vibration. The functions of engine mounts are: 1. During engine operation, certain vibrations are generated. The rubber components in the engine mounts can eliminate the resonance produced by the engine; 2. The hydraulic oil in the engine mounts has a vibration damping function.

What to Do When the Water Temperature Warning Light Flashes?

When the water temperature warning light flashes, you should pull over to check, but note that you should stop the vehicle without turning off the engine. Park the car in a safe area and avoid turning off the engine. Let the engine continue running at idle speed, and open the hood to dissipate heat. If you see steam rising from the hood, observe first and do not open it hastily to avoid burns. The water temperature warning light indicates that the coolant level is either too low or too high. This light displays the working condition of the engine. In some car models, the color of the water temperature light indicates the coolant temperature: blue means the water temperature is too low, red means it is too high, and if it is not lit, the water temperature is normal.
