Audi A6's brake fluid reservoir can be seen after opening the engine hood, located on the right side of the engine compartment, inside the yellow container. Characteristics of brake fluid: Automotive brake fluid has a very low freezing point, ensuring good fluidity in low-temperature conditions. It also has an extremely high boiling point, preventing vapor lock under high-temperature conditions. Function of brake fluid: Brake fluid is the liquid medium that transmits braking pressure in hydraulic braking systems, used in vehicles equipped with hydraulic braking systems. In a sealed container or liquid-filled pipeline, when the liquid is pressurized, it quickly and evenly transmits the pressure to all parts of the liquid.

Last time I checked the brake system myself, I remember the brake fluid reservoir of the Audi A6 was easy to locate. After opening the engine hood and standing at the front of the car, from your perspective, it's usually on the left side near the windshield – a small translucent plastic container with a black cap. There's often a label marked 'brake fluid' next to it, about the size of a fist. If you can't find it, just look above the front wheel on the driver's side. I also recommend checking the fluid level regularly – the reservoir has markings, and if the level drops below the MIN line, you should add some new fluid. Don't wait until the brakes feel soft to think about it; safety comes first. By the way, changing the fluid is quite simple. I check it myself about once a year to prevent aging from affecting brake performance.

Is the BMW N20 engine oil temperature around 125 degrees?

For the BMW N20 engine, an oil temperature between 100-120 degrees is normal. Normal range of oil temperature: An oil temperature of 100 degrees is normal. The working temperature of engine oil is generally between 70 to 90 degrees. During aggressive driving, it can reach around 100 to 110 degrees. If the oil temperature consistently stays above 120 degrees, it requires immediate inspection, as it can cause various adverse effects. Effects of excessively high oil temperature: It affects the viscosity of the oil, leading to severe wear of some engine components, and in serious cases, may cause cylinder scuffing or bearing seizure. It can also cause the fuel injected into the cylinder to ignite prematurely, resulting in insufficient compression and reduced power output.

How Many Patents Does Volkswagen Have?

SAIC Volkswagen has 1,630 patents. Patent: A patent is generally a document issued by a government agency or a regional organization representing several countries based on an application. This document records the content of an invention or creation and establishes a legal status for a certain period, meaning that others can only implement the patented invention or creation with the permission of the patent holder under normal circumstances. Valid Patent: A patent that remains in effect after being granted. To keep a patent valid, it must still be within the statutory protection period, and the patent holder must pay the annual fees as required. Expired Patent: After a patent application is granted, if it exceeds the statutory protection period or the patent holder fails to pay the annual fees on time, resulting in the loss of patent rights, or if any individual or entity requests the patent to be declared invalid and the Patent Reexamination Board confirms and declares it invalid, the patent is then referred to as an expired patent.

Where is the throttle body located?

The throttle body is located behind the air filter in the intake system and in front of the intake manifold. The throttle body is the throat of the engine, controlling the amount of air entering the engine. When the driver presses the accelerator pedal, it doesn't directly control fuel injection but rather adjusts the throttle opening. When the throttle opening increases, sensors detect the increased airflow and command the fuel injection system to increase fuel delivery. Modern engines use electronic throttle bodies. The crankcase ventilation tube connects to the throttle body for both environmental reasons and to utilize intake vacuum for drawing gases from the crankcase. When oil vapors reach the intake tract, they cool down, causing oil to condense on intake passages and the throttle body. Carbon deposits carried by these vapors also accumulate in these areas. Since the throttle opening has the highest airflow velocity, smallest space, and lowest gas temperature, this area is most prone to condensation buildup. Therefore, how quickly the throttle body gets dirty depends on multiple factors including air filter quality, engine oil brand/quality, driving conditions, ambient temperature, engine operating temperature, and driving habits.

How many liters of fuel does the 2018 Civic need?

The 2018 Civic's fuel tank requires 47 liters of fuel. The manufacturer recommends using 92-octane gasoline. For safety, the car must be turned off before refueling, and the fuel tank cap can be opened by pressing it without locking the car. Honda Civic refueling procedure: 1. Press the left side of the fuel tank to open the fuel cap; 2. Unscrew the fuel tank sealing cap counterclockwise; 3. Insert the fuel tank sealing cap into the fuel tank cover; 4. Insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel tank; 5. Start refueling. When the fuel nozzle is cut off for the first time, the tank is full. Continuing to refuel will fill the expansion chamber in the fuel tank; 6. Do not pull out the fuel nozzle immediately. Leave it at the fuel port for 5 seconds to allow all fuel to drain into the tank; 7. Screw the fuel tank sealing cap clockwise onto the fuel port until a click is heard; 8. Close the fuel tank cap tightly until a "click" is heard.
