Automotive relays are relays used in vehicles. Relay Characteristics: Automotive relays feature high load-switching capacity, excellent impact resistance, and high vibration resistance. Vehicle electrical systems mostly use 12V, with most coil voltages designed for 12V. In the engine compartment, the required ambient temperature range is -40°C to 125°C, while for other locations it's -40°C to 85°C.

What Causes the Engine Noise in Volkswagen Lamando?

Lamando engine noise may be caused by aging or loosened engine mounts, excessive clearance, poor lubrication, loose fasteners, engine misfire, etc. Noise due to aging or loosened engine mounts: Engine mounts, also known as engine supports or mounts, are generally installed between the engine and the vehicle body, connecting the body and the engine, serving to secure the engine. Their most important function is to provide cushioning and vibration damping. Once the engine mounts age or become loose, the engine's vibration intensifies, resulting in noise. Noise due to engine misfire: Engine misfire mainly refers to one or more cylinders in the engine not functioning properly, characterized by severe shaking of the exhaust pipe accompanied by abnormal noises such as "popping" or "thumping" sounds.

Do Small Stones on Tires Need to Be Cleaned?

Tires need to be cleaned of small stones. Impact on tires: Damage to tires: If not cleaned for a long time, as the number of stones increases, the friction between the car tires and the ground will weaken. If there are many stones stuck in the tread, especially larger ones, they can not only accelerate tire wear but also potentially cause damage to the tires. Risk of tire blowout: Stones stuck in the tire tread can hit the road surface at high speeds, leading to localized temperature increases in the tire. Over time, this can result in a tire blowout. Real-time tire pressure monitoring: Regularly check tire pressure. A green tire pressure monitoring cap indicates normal pressure, yellow means low pressure, and red indicates extremely low pressure.
