When waiting at a red light with the gear in D and the brake pedal pressed, the car shakes noticeably, but the shaking stops when shifted to N gear. This is not a fault in the car but a normal phenomenon. The details are as follows: 1. The shaking comes from the transmission because the gear is in D, which means the power is connected. The engine's power is transmitted to the transmission, which then sends it to the wheels through the driveshaft. The car is supposed to move forward, but since the brake is pressed and it can't move, the transmission is constantly under tension, causing the shaking. 2. This shaking occurs in every car, but it is more noticeable in some cars and less so in others, sometimes even imperceptible. This is because some cars have better noise and vibration control, effectively isolating the shaking so that it doesn't reach the interior of the car.

Why Do CNG Vehicles Consume Too Much Gas?

When using natural gas, excessive fuel consumption is related to improper installation and adjustment of the compressed natural gas pressure reducer. The advantages of natural gas vehicles include the following: 1. Higher economic benefits: For the same equivalent heat value, countries around the world generally control the price of 1 cubic meter of natural gas to be half that of 1 liter of gasoline or diesel. If the thermal efficiency of various engines is relatively similar, the fuel cost of natural gas vehicles is approximately half that of gasoline or diesel vehicles. This compensates for the shortage of liquid fuel supply caused by the increasing number of vehicles and significantly reduces operating costs. 2. Better social benefits: Compared to petroleum fuels, gaseous fuels have smaller energy losses during preparation and emit fewer harmful pollutants into the atmosphere. From the perspective of fuel sources, they are more environmentally friendly. 3. Relatively safer: The gas cylinders or tanks of CNG, LNG, and LPG vehicles are sturdy and reliable. Natural gas itself is lighter than air (except for LPG), so any slight leakage quickly disperses into the atmosphere. All components of the gaseous fuel system, especially the sealing parts, undergo rigorous inspection. Therefore, natural gas is relatively safer as an automotive fuel.

How to Buy Imported Sedans?

Parallel imported vehicles can be purchased at 4S stores or imported car dealerships. Below is a detailed introduction to buying parallel imported vehicles: 1. Purchase at 4S Stores Currently, some 4S stores also offer parallel imported vehicles. For example, Honda 4S stores may sell imported Jaguar Land Rover, Land Cruiser, Patrol, and other models, and provide after-sales services for these vehicles. Since parallel imported vehicles generally do not come with manufacturer warranties, the 4S stores themselves take on the responsibility for warranty coverage. 2. Purchase at Imported Car Dealerships Imported car dealerships are similar to 4S stores, except they sell multiple brands rather than a single brand. These dealerships can provide after-sales services like 4S stores, including license plate registration, maintenance, etc. However, similar to 4S stores, they often bundle additional services with sales, leading to higher overall costs.

Why Can't Car Windows Be Opened When Submerged in Water?

Because the water pressure is too great. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Internal and external pressure difference: The cabin contains air, and the pressure difference between inside and outside causes the force exerted by water on the door to reach 150 kilograms, making it impossible to open. When the cabin is completely filled with water, the internal and external pressures balance out, allowing the door to be opened as easily as if in air. 2. Atmospheric pressure: After the car plunges into water 1 meter deep, the door is subjected to the equivalent of 1 ton of water pressure. Inside the car, there is basically only atmospheric pressure, which is negligible compared to the water pressure. Water slowly enters the cabin at a very slow rate. At this point, the driver typically panics and desperately tries to open the door, accelerating oxygen consumption inside the car. By the time the cabin is fully flooded and the pressure on both sides of the door balances out, the driver, having exhausted oxygen and likely ingested a large amount of water, may already be unconscious or lack the strength to open the door.
