Why Do Cars Drip Water in Summer?

It is quite normal for a car's exhaust pipe to drip water, which indicates that the engine is working properly, with complete combustion and good atomization effect. Reasons: The dripping water from the car's exhaust pipe is due to the fact that after the gasoline is completely burned, it produces water and carbon dioxide. Water at high temperatures is in the form of water vapor, which is colorless and transparent. However, when the temperature drops below 100 degrees, the water vapor condenses into water. If the condensed water droplets are very small and suspended in the air, the water vapor appears as white gas. When the ambient temperature is low, the white smoke from the exhaust pipe is water vapor. If the condensed water droplets accumulate, they turn into water. Minimum conditions for exhaust pipe dripping: The mixture ratio of gasoline and air is correct. The engine's cylinder pressure is normal. The exhaust pipe temperature is low.

Why is the Geely Vision X3 experiencing weak acceleration?

Reasons for weak acceleration in the Geely Vision X3: fuel supply system malfunction, decrease in engine compression ratio. Detailed explanations of the reasons are as follows: Fuel supply system malfunction: Excessive fuel leads to an overly rich air-fuel mixture, causing weak acceleration at low speeds in motorcycles. An overly rich mixture lacks sufficient oxygen during combustion, resulting in incomplete combustion of the mixture, reduced power output, poorer fuel economy, and the tendency to produce excessive carbon deposits that clog the exhaust system, exacerbating the weak acceleration phenomenon. Decrease in engine compression ratio: Engine power is directly linked to the compression ratio. As the vehicle is used, internal engine components wear out. If key components experience excessive wear, the engine's compression ratio will decrease.

Will adding too much antifreeze have any impact?

Adding too much antifreeze can have negative effects, which include: during vehicle operation, thermal expansion may cause it to overflow through the pressure relief valve, leaving stains. The functions of automotive antifreeze are: to prevent the coolant from freezing during cold winter parking, which could crack the radiator or damage the engine cylinder block or head. The method for replacing antifreeze is: 1. Unscrew the radiator cap to drain the old antifreeze; 2. With the engine idling, inject clean water until clear water flows out from the radiator; 3. After all clean water has drained, close the water valve; 4. Add new antifreeze until the liquid level is between the MAX and MIN marks; 5. Replace the cap and let the engine idle for two to three minutes.

What is the maintenance interval for the Aion LX?

AionLX's maintenance interval is generally every 7,000 kilometers for a minor service and every 15,000 kilometers for a major service. The Aion LX is a pure electric vehicle, so its maintenance schedule differs from that of fuel-powered cars. For pure electric vehicles, maintenance items are relatively simple, primarily involving the replacement of the cabin air filter and inspections of lighting, brakes, etc. Compared to traditional fuel-powered cars, electric vehicles do not have engines or transmissions, eliminating the need for air filter and transmission fluid changes. However, routine inspections, adjustments, and cleaning are still necessary. Most electric vehicles also require gearbox oil, brake fluid, and coolant replacements, so maintenance is still essential for electric cars. The Aion LX has body dimensions of 4786mm in length, 1935mm in width, and 1685mm in height.
