Which part of the tire will experience increased wear if the tire pressure is too high?

If the tire pressure is too high, the rigidity of the tire increases, while deformation and the contact area with the ground decrease. This leads to higher unit pressure on the central part of the tread, resulting in accelerated wear. It causes central wear on the tire crown, affecting comfort and reducing the tire's lifespan. Below is an introduction to tire pressure: 1. Tire pressure will rise or fall with changes in temperature and tire temperature. Generally, for passenger cars and SUVs, the recommended tire pressure when cold is around 2.3-2.5 bar. 2. Both excessively low and excessively high tire pressure will affect the tire's service life. 3. If the tire pressure is too low, the radial deformation increases, causing excessive deformation on both sides of the tire wall and leading to shoulder wear on the tire crown. This also raises the tire temperature, significantly reducing the tire's lifespan.

How Long Will the Battery Last When Running the Car AC Without Starting the Engine?

Running the car AC without starting the engine can drain the battery within tens of minutes. When the AC is used without the engine running (though it lacks cooling functionality), the car's battery will gradually lose charge, potentially leading to difficulty starting the vehicle. Below are some tips for AC maintenance: 1. Comprehensive AC inspection: Before first use in summer, check the AC system, including inspecting the refrigerant level via the reservoir, checking if the cabin air filter is too dirty, and ensuring the radiator is free of debris. 2. Regular AC cleaning: Replace the cabin air filter periodically to prevent moldy odors. Additionally, clean the condenser regularly by removing the radiator for thorough cleaning.

What causes the 40-shake to exceed non-shake?

40-shake exceeding non-shake is caused by carbon deposits in the engine throttle intake pipe combustion chamber, ignition system malfunctions, and other reasons. Below are specific details: 1. Causes: Carbon deposits in the engine throttle intake pipe combustion chamber, forgetting to release the handbrake, insufficient engine oil, poor-quality engine oil, excessive spark plug gap, insufficient tire pressure causing imbalance, aging engine components. 2. Solutions: Severe engine carbon deposits require cleaning the fuel system; check if the idle control valve has carbon deposits and clean it thoroughly. If the ignition system malfunctions, check if the spark plugs have excessive carbon deposits and replace them if necessary. Unstable oil pressure requires checking the oil pressure and replacing components if needed. For aging engine components, replace them.

Is a Lottery Required for Electric Vehicles in Tianjin?

Tianjin does not require a lottery for new energy vehicle license plates; only energy-efficient vehicles and conventional vehicles are subject to the lottery system. Hybrid vehicles (non-plug-in) require a lottery, while plug-in hybrid vehicles do not. Unit incremental quotas account for 12% of the total allocation, while individual incremental quotas make up 88%. Here is additional information: Relevant regulations: According to Article 17 of the "Tianjin Passenger Vehicle Total Quantity Control and Management Measures" (Jin Zheng Fa [2014] No. 33), energy-efficient vehicle incremental quotas are allocated through a lottery system, while conventional vehicle incremental quotas are allocated through both lottery and bidding. Energy-efficient vehicle and conventional vehicle incremental quotas are drawn separately.

What is the wheel size of the Tiguan L?

The wheel size of the Tiguan L is 19 inches. More information about the Tiguan L tires: The Tiguan L 380TSI comes standard with 19-inch Continental CSC5 tires, and the tire model for the Tiguan L is 235/50-R19. The meanings of these numbers are as follows: 1. 235 indicates the tire section width, measured in mm. Generally, tire widths range between 145-285mm, in increments of 10mm; 2. 50 is the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, with 50 representing 70%; 3. R stands for Radial, indicating the tire has a radial structure; 4. 19 is the rim diameter, measured in inches.

After upgrading from an E license to a C1 license, which date determines the renewal deadline?

After upgrading from an E license to a C1 license, the renewal date is still based on the date when the E license was initially obtained, i.e., the initial issuance date. C1 Driver's License: The C1 driver's license is one of the classifications for motor vehicle driving licenses. The C1 license permits the holder to drive small and mini passenger vehicles, light and mini cargo vehicles, as well as light, small, and mini special purpose vehicles. Small passenger vehicles must accommodate 9 or fewer passengers. Age Requirements: The minimum age to apply for a C1 driver's license is 18 years old, with no upper age limit. However, applicants aged 70 or older must pass tests assessing memory, judgment, and reaction abilities.

What is the difference between a red warning and a yellow warning?

Yellow warning lights indicate a warning, while red warning lights indicate a prohibition. Here is the relevant information: 1. Yellow warning lights: Yellow warning lights indicate a warning. At this time, certain systems in the car may have parameters that exceed the set range, such as the EPC light being illuminated due to excessive engine exhaust emissions, or the tire pressure monitoring fault light being illuminated due to abnormal tire pressure. The car can still be driven at this time, but some functions may be restricted. 2. Red warning lights: Red warning lights indicate a prohibition. Whenever a red warning light appears on the dashboard, the car must be stopped immediately, the engine must be turned off, and continued use is prohibited. For example, if the red oil light is on, it indicates abnormal engine oil pressure, and continued use may cause serious mechanical engine failure.
