In the upper left position of the engine compartment, behind the left headlight, there is a water reservoir cap that can be opened to add windshield washer fluid. Features of windshield washer fluid: Windshield washer fluid, commonly known as car windshield cleaning fluid, is a consumable for vehicles. It is composed of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and surfactants. When using the windshield wipers to clean the car's windshield, the window becomes brighter and cleaner, providing the driver with excellent visibility. Notes on windshield washer fluid: There are many details to pay attention to when using windshield washer fluid. In winter, it is necessary to place the windshield washer fluid inside the car before adding antifreeze washer fluid. Do not use tap water as a substitute for windshield washer fluid. Tap water contains various impurities. Long-term use of tap water as windshield washer fluid can clog the washer fluid pipes, damage the wiper motor, and cause the wipers to malfunction.

Where is the OBD interface located on the Dongfeng Citroen C-Quatre?

The OBD interface of the Dongfeng Citroen C-Quatre is located inside the ashtray in front of the gear lever, and the ashtray needs to be removed when in use. OBD stands for On-Board Diagnostics, which can monitor the working conditions of the engine electronic control system and other functional modules of the vehicle in real time during operation. If any abnormal conditions are detected, it will determine the specific fault according to a specific algorithm and store it in the system's memory in the form of diagnostic trouble codes. The useful information obtained after system self-diagnosis can assist in vehicle maintenance and repair. Maintenance personnel can use the vehicle's original factory-specific instrument to read the fault codes, thereby quickly locating the fault for vehicle repair and reducing manual diagnosis time.

Why is water dripping from the exhaust pipe of Dongfeng A9?

Reasons for water dripping from the exhaust pipe of Dongfeng A9: After complete combustion of gasoline in the car, water and carbon dioxide are produced. At high temperatures, water exists as vapor. When the temperature drops below 100 degrees Celsius, the water vapor condenses into water, which is why water drips from the exhaust pipe. This is a normal physical phenomenon and also indicates complete combustion of gasoline. Water dripping from the exhaust pipe represents the following factors: 1. The correct mixture ratio of gasoline and air, indicating the fuel supply system is in good condition; 2. It shows that there is no wear in the engine cylinder block, and components like cylinder liners and sealing rings are functioning properly; 3. It indicates that the heat in the engine is concentrated within the cylinders, with only a small amount of heat escaping into the exhaust pipe, resulting in high engine horsepower output. If the exhaust pipe temperature is high, the water vapor will not condense into water droplets.

What are the reasons for the throttle not increasing RPM and lack of power?

When the throttle is pressed but the RPM does not increase and the car lacks power, the most common causes are a clogged fuel filter or fuel injector, leading to the fuel pump not working properly and insufficient fuel pressure. In such cases, replacing the fuel filter or fuel injector is necessary. Without seeing the actual vehicle, an accurate diagnosis is difficult. Besides the aforementioned reasons, here are some other possible causes: 1. Fault in the clutch system (lubrication issues or wear); 2. Malfunction of the throttle body or stepper motor; 3. Problems with the exhaust system. 4. Short circuits or poor conductivity in the electrical wiring (such as ignition coils, spark plugs, etc.); 5. Use of low-quality or contaminated gasoline.

Should You Turn Off the Engine When Refueling?

You should turn off the engine when refueling to prevent potential safety hazards. Here are some precautions to take at gas stations: 1. Prevent open flames and static electricity: Smoking is an open flame, so even if you stay in the car, you should extinguish the cigarette butt. Using a phone can interfere with the gas station's electronic equipment or generate electronic friction that might ignite fuel vapors. Besides open flames, gas stations are also wary of static electricity, and synthetic fiber clothing is most likely to generate static electricity, so avoid patting your clothes while refueling. 2. Remember to turn off the engine before refueling: While the vehicle is running, the exhaust pipe continues to emit exhaust gases. Not only is the exhaust pipe very hot, but it may also emit sparks, posing a risk of igniting gasoline. Therefore, always turn off the engine before refueling.

What is the actual lifespan of a dry dual-clutch transmission?

The lifespan of a dry dual-clutch transmission or other types of transmissions can generally reach hundreds of thousands or even millions of kilometers. CVT, AT, and dual-clutch transmissions have sufficiently long lifespans. After all, as manufacturers, without adequate lifespan testing, the after-sales costs would be substantial. Therefore, there's no need to worry about their lifespan. However, a long lifespan doesn't mean they can operate without faults or maintenance for an equally long time. Early Volkswagen dual-clutch transmissions faced many issues due to poor heat dissipation. However, most dual-clutch transmissions have been improved now, especially with the addition of independent cooling programs, which have addressed the heat dissipation problems. Yet, extending the semi-engagement method is a necessary compromise to reduce jerking, so premature wear of the clutch plates still exists.
