Audi A6L cold idle shaking has the following three reasons: 1. The temperature inside the engine is insufficient, and the temperature of both fuel and lubricating oil is too low. 2. Uneven cylinder pressure, excessive carbon deposits on intake valves and intake pipes. 3. Fuel injection issues caused by excessive internal carbon deposits in the nozzles. 4. When the water temperature is low, it is considered a cold start, and the engine noise is very loud, especially in winter, sounding like a tractor with significant vibrations, which improves when the engine warms up. This is a normal phenomenon because combustion and lubrication are poor during cold starts. The engine runs at higher RPM when cold and lower RPM when warm, leading to incomplete combustion which can cause carbon buildup, blackened exhaust pipes, and in some cases, blue smoke for the first few seconds, indicating oil burning, which is also normal.

How Long Is It Appropriate to Run the Air Conditioner While Parked?

It is advisable to limit it to around 15 minutes. Running it for too long can lead to poor heat dissipation and damage the car engine. Below are precautions for using the car air conditioner: 1. Do not sleep with the air conditioner on: In relatively confined environments, such as inside a garage, it may lead to carbon dioxide poisoning. It's best to run the air conditioner in open-air or well-ventilated areas and leave a slight window gap. Shortly after entering the car, one should open the windows or activate the external circulation ventilation system to introduce fresh air. Avoid driving for extended periods with closed windows and doors, and never sleep or rest for long durations in a sealed car. 2. Maintain air exchange between inside and outside: After purchasing a new car, it's important to facilitate air exchange between the interior and exterior as much as possible, similar to airing out a newly renovated home, to allow harmful gases inside the car to volatilize and dissipate as quickly as possible.

The retirement process is as follows: Documents required for vehicle retirement: Vehicle license; vehicle registration certificate; license plates; for company vehicles, an organizational code certificate (copy) with the company seal; for personal vehicles, the owner's ID card; supporting documents for accident vehicles; for company vehicles, the "Motor Vehicle Deregistration Application Form" and "Vehicle Retirement Certificate" must bear the company seal (matching the name on the license), while personal vehicle owners must sign these documents. Vehicle retirement process: Apply at the registration and acceptance counter, where a "Vehicle Retirement Notice" will be issued for vehicles that have reached the retirement age. For vehicles that have not reached the retirement age, the motor vehicle inspection counter will determine if they meet the retirement standards and issue a "Motor Vehicle Retirement Notice"; the vehicle owner can then choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle; after verifying the "Notice," the recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos. The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut; the owner must submit the "Change Form," "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Appraisal Form," "Vehicle Recycling Certificate," and photos of the dismantled vehicle to the motor vehicle inspection counter for verification and signature. The license plates will be reclaimed, and the retirement registration will be processed after approval according to regulations.

Is it okay not to apply film on car windows?

It is not advisable to leave car windows without film. The impacts of not applying film are as follows: 1. The front windshield is the main source of heat radiation that raises the temperature inside the car. Applying a transparent film can significantly improve the driving environment and reduce air conditioning energy consumption, thereby achieving energy-saving effects. 2. After applying film to the front windshield, it effectively blocks UV rays, protecting the dashboard from radiation and extending its service life. 3. Since the front windshield is made of tempered safety glass, applying a front windshield film prevents glass fragments from scattering in case of breakage, ensuring the driver's safety. 4. However, if non-specialized front windshield film is used or the installation is poorly done, it can severely affect driving, especially the driver's nighttime safety. Generally, after applying a high-quality transparent front windshield film, there will be no light reflection patterns when driving through tunnels, nor any glare from oncoming headlights during nighttime driving.
