The Highlander's cabin air filter is located inside the glove compartment on the front passenger side. The functions of the cabin air filter are: 1. To separate dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air; 2. To ensure clean air in the cabin and prevent bacterial growth. The Highlander is a mid-size SUV under GAC Toyota. Taking the 2021 Highlander 2WD Elite Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4890mm, width 1925mm, height 1720mm, with a wheelbase of 2790mm. The 2021 Highlander 2WD Elite Edition is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 162kW at 5200-6600rpm, and a maximum torque of 350Nm at 1800-4000rpm.

As a Highlander owner, I've personally replaced the cabin air filter several times. It's located behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat, with a very user-friendly design. Just open the glove box and remove any items or panels inside to access the filter cover. Gently open the cover and take out the old filter. When doing it myself, I prefer buying compatible filters online for just over 20 yuan, and the whole process takes less than ten minutes. Why is it placed there? Toyota engineers designed it for user convenience - no need to disassemble complex components, avoiding maintenance hassles. Regular replacement is crucial. I recommend changing it every 15,000 km or annually, because a dirty filter reduces AC efficiency, decreases airflow, and may breed bacteria affecting cabin air quality. This poses significant health risks, especially for families with children. After replacement, the AC performs noticeably better - cools faster and even saves some fuel costs.

What are the reasons for the dashboard not lighting up in the 2021 Bora?

Here are the reasons why the dashboard lights of the 2021 Bora may not illuminate: 1. Blown dashboard fuse: A blown dashboard fuse not only causes the dashboard lights to fail but also prevents the dashboard needles from moving. In this case, replacing the fuse is necessary to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by the dashboard malfunction. 2. Dead car battery: Forgetting to turn off the lights, radio, or music after leaving the vehicle; the battery has reached the end of its lifespan, leading to discharge or inability to hold a charge. When the car engine is running, the battery continuously charges and powers the vehicle's electrical components. However, if you turn off the engine and leave the vehicle without turning off the lights, music, or other electrical devices, it can cause significant battery drain.

What Causes the Air Conditioning in Diesel Vehicles to Not Blow Cold Air?

Diesel vehicle air conditioning not blowing cold air may be due to refrigerant issues. Here are the specific details: 1. Excessive Refrigerant: This is usually caused by overcharging the refrigerant during maintenance, as the proportion of refrigerant in the air conditioning system must meet certain requirements. If the proportion is too large, it can affect heat dissipation. If too much refrigerant is added during maintenance, the cooling system's heat dissipation capacity will also decrease. 2. Insufficient Refrigerant: The main reason for insufficient refrigerant is minor leaks in the system. If there is not enough refrigerant in the air conditioning system, the amount of refrigerant sprayed into the evaporator from the expansion valve decreases, leading to less refrigerant evaporating in the evaporator. The amount of heat absorbed will also decrease, resulting in reduced cooling capacity.

Why does the EA888 engine idle shake?

When the EA888 engine experiences idle shaking, it is due to damaged engine mounts. Here are additional details: 1. Severe engine carbon deposits, ignition system malfunctions, or dirty throttle bodies can all lead to engine idle shaking. 2. If the car runs normally after starting but begins to shake during acceleration or after driving for a period of time, it indicates a dirty throttle body, which should be cleaned promptly. 3. If the engine idle is unstable and causes shaking after starting, consider potential issues with the ignition system. If the problem is due to wiring faults, it is advisable to seek professional repair services.

Why is the central air conditioning in the car not blowing air?

If the central air conditioning in the car is not blowing air, it may be due to overheating damage of the internal coil, capacitor damage, or failure caused by a malfunctioning blower fan. Below is relevant information about car air conditioning: 1. Cooling Principle: When the car air conditioning is cooling, the compressor clutch engages, causing the engine to drive the compressor. The compressor continuously compresses the refrigerant and delivers it to the evaporator. Inside the evaporator, the refrigerant expands and absorbs heat, cooling the evaporator. The cooled evaporator then cools the air blown by the blower fan. 2. Heating Principle: When the car air conditioning is heating, the high-temperature coolant from the engine passes through the heater core. At the same time, the air blown by the blower fan also passes through the heater core, allowing the air vents to blow warm air.

How many bearing seats are required for a triangular chassis?

Triangular chassis requires a total of 3 bearing seats. Below is relevant information about automotive bearings: 1. Introduction: A bearing is a mechanical element that restricts relative motion within the desired range of movement and reduces friction between moving parts. The design of bearings can provide free linear movement of moving parts or free rotation around a fixed axis, and can also prevent motion by controlling the vector of normal forces acting on moving parts. 2. Sliding bearings: The simplest type of bearing is the sliding bearing, which consists of a shaft rotating within a hole. Lubrication is used to reduce friction. In ball bearings and roller bearings, rolling elements with circular cross-sections (rollers or balls) are placed between the races or journals of the bearing assembly to reduce sliding friction.

How Many Days of Practice Before Retaking the Subject 2 Driving Test is Most Suitable?

Generally, it is advisable to practice driving 2-3 days in advance. Starting too early may cause you to forget key points. The practice duration should not be too long; about 2 days is sufficient. Over-practicing can make it harder to correct bad habits or mistakes. On the day before the test, practicing once or twice is enough to avoid fatigue, which could affect your performance the next day. Also, ensure you get adequate rest and sleep. Different items in Subject 2 have different deduction points. The details are as follows: 1. General Deductions: Not wearing a seatbelt, not closing the car door properly, and not having the gear in neutral when starting the engine will each deduct 100 points. Not using the turn signal, using the turn signal for less than 3 seconds, forgetting to turn it off, or using it incorrectly, as well as stalling the engine, will each deduct 10 points. 2. Parallel Parking: If the vehicle exceeds the line after stopping in the parking space or if the task takes more than 90 seconds, 100 points will be deducted. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when exiting the parking space will also deduct 100 points. Touching the parking space line with the car body or running over the lane boundary line with the wheels during movement will deduct 10 points each time. Stopping for more than 2 seconds during the process will deduct 5 points each time. 3. Reverse Parking: If the task takes more than 210 seconds, not following the prescribed route or sequence, not driving the front wheels over the control line before reversing, or failing to park properly in the space will each deduct 100 points. Stopping for more than 2 seconds during the process will deduct 5 points each time. 4. Curve Driving: Running over the edge line or stopping for more than 2 seconds will each deduct 100 points.
