If the car defogger fails to remove fog, it may be because the front window defogging function was not turned off, causing cold air to continuously blow against the glass. Over time, the glass temperature becomes lower than the ambient temperature, leading to condensation of moisture on the glass surface. If the front window still fogs up on the outer surface after turning off the defogging function, it indicates an issue with the car's air conditioning airflow control damper, which cannot accurately regulate the airflow direction. Below is relevant information about defoggers: Components: A defogger mainly consists of wave-shaped blades, plates, clips, and other fixing devices. The defogger nozzle is one of the main components of the defogging system, primarily made of high-quality plastic for excellent wear resistance and long service life. Key Function: The defogger's role is to capture mist particles and slurry droplets carried by the flue gas during the spray absorption process. The efficiency of the defogger depends not only on its structure but also on the density and particle size of the mist. The atomized particle size of the nozzle is related to the viscosity of the absorption liquid, spray pressure, and nozzle structure.

What are the maintenance items for a car at 45,000 kilometers?

At 45,000 kilometers, the following maintenance items will be performed on the car: 1. Engine oil and oil filter: Must be replaced, which is also required for every maintenance. 2. Air filter and cabin air filter: These two should be checked first to see if they need replacement. If they are not severely dirty, cleaning them will suffice for continued use. If they are heavily soiled, they must be replaced promptly. 3. Fuel filter: Many car models require the fuel filter to be replaced at 40,000 kilometers. 4. Key inspection of various fluids: Such as coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, etc., most of which need to be replaced. 5. Spark plugs: Under normal circumstances, spark plugs also need to be replaced. 6. Brake pads and tires: These two should be inspected; at 45,000 kilometers, they likely do not need replacement. However, if any abnormalities are found, they should be replaced promptly.

Does vehicle damage insurance cover compensation for cars flooded by rain?

Vehicle damage insurance does cover compensation for cars flooded by rain. Below is relevant information about waterlogging insurance: 1. Definition: Waterlogging insurance is a newly derived type of auto insurance, primarily referring to an additional coverage purchased by car owners for their engines. In cases where the insured vehicle is submerged up to the exhaust pipe or intake manifold due to heavy rain or flooding, and the driver continues to start the vehicle or attempts to start it by inertia; or if the vehicle is started without necessary post-flooding procedures, compensation under these two scenarios requires the purchase of waterlogging insurance. 2. Claims handling: Compensation is based on actual repair costs within the coverage limit. However, if the cumulative claim amount reaches the coverage limit during the insurance period, the insurance liability terminates. Each claim under waterlogging insurance is subject to a 15% absolute deductible.

What is the reason for exceeding 50cm in the slope fixed-point parking in Subject 2?

Exceeding 50cm in the slope fixed-point parking of Subject 2 may be due to braking too early, resulting in the vehicle not being parked close enough to the edge. Here are some relevant details: 1. Slope fixed-point parking: This is an assessment point in the driver's Subject 2 exam. The test requires parking the vehicle at a fixed position on a slope with a gradient of at least 10% and a length of at least 30 meters, assessing the coordination of steering, braking, and clutch operation. 2. Assessment purpose: The goal of this assessment is to train drivers to accurately judge the vehicle's position and correctly use the brake, gear, and clutch to meet the needs of parking and starting on uphill sections.

What does a non-separated two-way traffic section mean?

A non-separated two-way traffic section refers to a road segment where there are no markings to separate the lanes, allowing vehicles to travel in both directions. In contrast, separated roads have wider spacing between opposing lanes or are divided by barriers. Entry points to separated roads are typically marked with appropriate signage. Separated roads: These are highways where the left and right travel lanes are constructed separately. Some feature central dividers of varying widths, while others have left and right travel lanes at different elevations, both designed for two-way traffic. Non-separated two-way traffic sections are marked with traffic signs to alert drivers that the road accommodates traffic in both directions, reminding them to watch for oncoming vehicles and drive carefully. Non-separated two-way traffic section: These sections are marked with traffic signs to indicate that the road allows two-way traffic, warning drivers to be cautious of oncoming vehicles. The sign typically features two parallel arrows pointing in opposite directions within a black equilateral triangle on a yellow background, indicating that the upcoming road is originally designed for two-way traffic.

What is the wading depth of the BMW 5 Series?

BMW 5 Series has a safe wading depth of 25 cm. Here are the relevant details: 1. Safe wading depth: Theoretically, the safe wading depth of a car is determined by not submerging the engine air intake. The engine air intake is located at the front grille radiator position, meaning the water level should not exceed the lower edge of the front bumper to the grille, accounting for the water pushed up while moving. 2. Height: The exhaust pipe of a standard sedan is typically 20 to 30 cm from the ground, while for SUV models, it's 30 to 40 cm. Therefore, as long as the water level does not exceed two-thirds of the tire height, drivers can proceed with confidence.
