Vehicles without a 't' are more fuel-efficient. The 't' indicates that the car's engine is equipped with a turbocharger. The differences between vehicles with a 't' and without a 't' are as follows: Fuel Consumption: Compared to engines of the same displacement, model, and structure, engines with a turbocharger (with a 't') consume slightly more fuel. Power: Engines with a 't' have significantly higher output power than engines of the same displacement; thus, they have the highest power per liter. Torque: Under the same displacement conditions, turbocharged engines can greatly increase power and torque. For example, a 1.8T engine can be equivalent to a 2.4L engine, with more efficient fuel combustion.

What Causes Smoke from the Engine Compartment?

Engine compartment smoke can be categorized into three types: black smoke, blue smoke, and white smoke. 1. Black smoke from a car engine may occur due to: an imbalanced air-fuel ratio, decreased cylinder pressure, premature fuel injection timing, failure of the smoke limiter on the fuel injection pump, black smoke during rapid acceleration, or malfunction of the exhaust brake system. 2. Blue smoke from a car engine is caused by burning engine oil. 3. White smoke from a car engine under hot conditions may result from: a small fuel injection advance angle, incomplete combustion, slight water leakage in the cylinder liner, or water content in the fuel. White smoke during cold starts, especially at low temperatures, is normal if it disappears as the engine temperature rises.

How to spray water in front of the wiper?

The wiper's water spray switch is located on the wiper control lever on the right side of the steering wheel. To use the spray function, pull the wiper control lever towards the driver to spray water. If used frequently, check the windshield washer fluid level and add more if it is too low to prevent the wiper from dry wiping. Here is some information about wipers: 1. Manually control the wiper's swing frequency. In general driving conditions, pulling the wiper lever towards yourself will first spray washer fluid, followed by several wiper swings to clean the windshield. 2. When the rain is not heavy and the windshield is not densely covered with water, set the wiper lever to the low-speed swing position, marked as LO or LOW. 3. When the rain intensifies and the windshield is quickly covered, significantly impairing visibility, set the wiper to the high-speed swing position, marked as HI or HIGH, to continuously clear water from the windshield.
