Car intake manifold is located in the engine compartment, which can be seen after opening the engine hood, and it is connected to the intake tract. The intake manifold delivers air to different cylinders separately, and it is generally made of plastic. Using a plastic intake manifold can reduce the weight of the engine. Some high-performance cars even use carbon fiber intake manifolds. The intake manifold must distribute the air-fuel mixture or clean air as evenly as possible to each cylinder. For this purpose, the length of the gas flow channels inside the intake manifold should be as equal as possible. To reduce gas flow resistance and improve intake capacity, the inner wall of the intake manifold should be smooth.

Will Insurance Cover Damage if a Car is Hit by a Falling Tree?

If a car is damaged by a falling tree, the insurance company will provide compensation. When a tree breaks and damages a vehicle due to force majeure events such as natural disasters, the insurance company is responsible for covering the corresponding damages. According to insurance regulations, there is a provision for vehicle damage: as long as the direct loss of the insured vehicle is caused by "falling or collapsing external objects" during the insurance period, the insurance company is obligated to compensate as stipulated in the insurance contract, which falls under the coverage of vehicle damage insurance. Incidents such as trees toppled by strong winds, falling billboards, or debris from rooftops damaging parked vehicles are considered collapses of external objects and are also eligible for compensation. However, in cases of natural disasters or extreme weather conditions, vehicle damage insurance typically includes a deductible of around 30%. This means that for policyholders with vehicle damage insurance, the insurance company will cover 70% of the loss, while the remaining 30% is the responsibility of the tree's managing authority. For example, if a tree in a residential area damages a vehicle, the vehicle damage insurance will cover 70% of the loss, and the remaining 30% is to be compensated by the property management. If there is no vehicle damage insurance, the property management or the party responsible for the tree must negotiate a resolution. The insurance claim process for a car hit by a falling tree is as follows: Do not move the vehicle and report the incident to the insurance company within 24 hours. After receiving the report, the insurance company will arrange for an adjuster to inspect the scene and photograph the damage. Once the inspection is complete, the adjuster will notify the owner of the repair location. The owner must initially cover the repair costs, which will later be reimbursed by the insurance company to the owner's bank account.

What Causes the Unusual Noise When Braking in a Bora?

Reasons for unusual noise when braking in a Bora: 1. The brake discs or pads may have rust or hard spots causing the noise, which usually occurs when the vehicle first starts moving and improves after a few brake applications; 2. The suspension system or pressure bearings may produce noise due to cold weather hardening the rubber components, leading to noise when braking under force, which improves after the car warms up; 3. A faulty brake caliper. The braking performance of a car is determined by the brake pads, so it's essential to maintain them properly. When the brake pads wear down to a certain extent, they need to be replaced promptly. Under normal urban driving conditions, the lifespan of brake pads is approximately 30,000 kilometers.

How to Solve Low Car Temperature in Winter?

Here are the solutions for low car temperature in winter: 1. Turn on the heating air conditioning. It is not advisable to turn on the heating immediately after starting the car. Wait for about 3-5 minutes until the engine temperature pointer reaches the center position, then turn on the heating air conditioning. Make sure to set the air circulation to external circulation to expel the cold air inside the car. After about 2 minutes, switch the air circulation to internal circulation, so the temperature inside the car can rise quickly. The suitable temperature for heating is 20°C. 2. Choose car floor mats. Silicone mats and rubber mats are good choices. These two types of mats have good cold resistance and can withstand low temperatures without deformation even at temperatures below minus ten degrees Celsius. They are also easy to clean. After installing new floor mats, be sure to test them first. Press the accelerator, brake, and clutch pedals by hand to check if they can reach the bottom. 3. Use warm seat covers. Seat covers are divided into pure wool and synthetic wool. Wool seat covers look luxurious and comfortable, like a fur coat. However, the downside is that they are not easy to clean.

What are the annual inspection requirements for vehicles over 10 years old?

For vehicles over ten years old, the annual inspection requires the original vehicle license (both the original and duplicate copies); the original duplicate copy of the compulsory traffic insurance policy with a validity period of more than 15 working days (electronic policies are recommended to be printed in color on A4 paper in advance or can be printed at the inspection station); the original ID card of the person handling the inspection at the station (if it is a proxy, bring the original ID card of the proxy; if it is the owner, bring the original ID card of the owner); for commercial vehicles, the company seal is required. Starting from November 20, 2020, non-commercial small and mini passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) that are over 6 years old but less than 10 years old have had their inspection cycle relaxed from once a year to once every two years. This means that private cars within 10 years only need to undergo two on-site inspections, at the 6th and 8th years. For private cars over 10 years old, the original inspection cycle still applies: those between 10-15 years old require an annual inspection, and those over 15 years old require inspections every six months. For commercial passenger vehicles within 5 years of age, the annual inspection cycle is once a year. For vehicles over 5 years old, the annual inspection cycle is twice a year. Commercial passenger vehicles include buses, taxis, coaches, tourist vehicles, long-distance buses, and many others. For cargo vehicles and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles, those within 10 years of age require an annual inspection once a year, while those over 10 years old require inspections twice a year. Things to note for vehicle annual inspections: The inspection time for each vehicle is indicated on the vehicle license. Inspections can be conducted up to three months in advance, but there is no grace period. Even one day overdue counts as being late. If caught by traffic police, 3 points will be deducted. Before the inspection, all traffic violations must be cleared; otherwise, the inspection cannot proceed. If the vehicle's lights or other components have been modified, non-compliant parts must be restored; otherwise, the inspection will fail. If a vehicle fails to undergo inspection three times, it will be forcibly scrapped.

How to Check a Car's Engine Number?

The engine number is generally located on the outer surface of the engine block, or on the car's nameplate or the nameplate inside the engine compartment. You can also check the engine number on the purchase invoice, the factory certificate, the operating permit for commercial vehicles, the vehicle purchase tax payment certificate, the registration records at public security authorities, or the vehicle insurance card. The simplest and most direct method is to look at the vehicle registration certificate or the car's driving license. The engine number is like a person's ID number, representing each vehicle. It contains very important information about the car. The engine model is an identification code assigned by the engine manufacturer according to relevant regulations, industry or company practices, and the engine's attributes. It represents information such as the manufacturer, specifications, performance, features, technology, purpose, and production batch of the engine, including fuel type, number of cylinders, displacement, and static braking power. Engines installed in passenger cars or multi-purpose vehicles must display the manufacturer's name, model, and production number as required. Note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer's range, and multiple engines can share the same model. The engine number, however, is the production serial number of the engine, with each engine having a unique number. Structure of a car's engine number: Prefix: Includes the product series code, generation symbol, and regional or company code, chosen by the manufacturer as needed but subject to approval and filing by the industry standardization authority. Middle section: Consists of symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter. Suffix: Comprises symbols for structural features and usage characteristics. Tail: A distinguishing symbol. If differentiation is needed due to improvements or other reasons within the same series, the manufacturer selects an appropriate symbol. The suffix and tail can be separated by a hyphen.
