Corolla makes abnormal noises while driving due to stones hitting the underside of the car. Below is an introduction about the Corolla: 1. Introduction: The Corolla, formerly known as the 'Corolla' in Chinese, is a brand under Toyota Motor Corporation. The Corolla is equipped with Michelin 215/45-R17 tires, TRD-Sportivo high-performance shock absorbers, TRD-TF4 17-inch sport rims, reinforced clutch, and high-performance brake pads to ensure ideal sports performance. 2. Space: The Corolla has been lengthened in terms of body size, with a wheelbase of 2700mm after the extension. In terms of seating space, a tester with a height of 177cm adjusted the front seat to the lowest position, with one fist of headroom. When the tester moved to the rear seat, there was two fingers of headroom and one fist and three fingers of legroom. The floor bulge in the middle of the rear seat of the Corolla is very small.

My Corolla has developed annoying rattles after long-term use, with suspension aging being a common culprit. For example, driving on bumpy roads may cause clunking sounds from worn shock absorbers or control arm bushings. During sharp turns, cracked stabilizer bar bushings can also create noise. When brake pads wear to their limit, they'll emit high-pitched squeals when applied. Additionally, loose exhaust pipe brackets or misaligned engine mounts can cause humming during acceleration. Don't overlook unbalanced tires or damaged wheel bearings, which produce louder noises at high speeds. Never ignore unusual sounds - promptly visit a repair shop for lift inspection of bolt tightness and worn components. Regular maintenance should include thorough chassis checks to prolong vehicle lifespan. For safety, discontinue driving if persistent noises occur.

What is the fuel consumption of the Audi A5 per kilometer?

Audi A5 fuel consumption is 7.8-9 liters per 100 kilometers. Correct fuel consumption calculation formula: Fuel consumed ÷ distance traveled × 100 = fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. The data of fuel consumed is relatively difficult to obtain. Generally, a full tank is used as the initial data. After driving a certain distance, the tank is filled again, and the fuel quantity provided by the gas station is taken as the final data. Tips to save fuel: If the fuel consumption during idling for more than 1 minute is equal to the fuel used for one start, then the fuel consumption of the engine idling for 5 minutes can allow the car to travel more than 1 kilometer.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Ford Mondeo 1.5t?

This car has a fuel consumption of 9.2 liters per 100 kilometers. The Mondeo is a sporty B-segment sedan under the Ford brand. Correct fuel consumption calculation formula: Fuel consumed ÷ Distance traveled × 100 = Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. The data on fuel consumed is relatively difficult to obtain. Generally, a full tank is used as the initial data. After driving a certain distance, the tank is filled again, and the fuel quantity provided by the gas station is taken as the final data. Tips for saving fuel: Idling for more than 1 minute consumes the same amount of fuel as starting the engine once. The fuel consumed by idling the engine for 5 minutes can allow the car to travel more than 1 kilometer.

How to Repair a Damaged Wheel Arch?

The method for repairing a rusted and damaged wheel arch is as follows: First, cut and remove the rusted and damaged part, then grind and polish to remove as much of the rust as possible. Next, use a piece of sheet metal to create a wheel arch of the same shape, weld it back into place, and then go through a series of processes including grinding, applying putty, polishing, and painting. Below is some related information about wheel arches: 1. The function of wheel arches: They are mainly installed for decorative purposes and to meet the personalized needs of the driver. At the same time, from an aerodynamic perspective, wheel arches also conform to fluid dynamics, helping to reduce the drag coefficient. The presence or absence of wheel arches has little impact on the overall fuel consumption of the vehicle. 2. Benefits of replacing with stainless steel wheel arches and tires: (1) More dazzling appearance; (2) Better cornering limits. 3. Drawbacks of replacing with stainless steel wheel arches and tires: (1) Reduced acceleration power; (2) Decreased comfort.

What is the battery model for the 2016 New Passat?

The battery model for the 2016 New Passat is 5K0 915 105C. In low-temperature environments, the battery capacity is significantly lower than at normal temperatures. Conventional Battery: Conventional batteries have plates made of lead and lead oxide, with an electrolyte of sulfuric acid solution. Their main advantages are stable voltage and low cost, while the disadvantages include low specific energy (the amount of electrical energy stored per kilogram of battery), short lifespan, and frequent maintenance. Dry-Charged Battery: The full name is dry-charged lead-acid battery. Its main feature is that the negative plate has a high capacity for storing electricity, retaining the charge for up to two years in a completely dry state. To use, simply add the electrolyte and wait 20-30 minutes. Maintenance-Free Battery: Due to its structural advantages, maintenance-free batteries consume very little electrolyte and generally do not require distilled water refills during their lifespan. They also feature shock resistance, high-temperature tolerance, compact size, and low self-discharge.

Why does the Qashqai's fuel consumption increase over time?

The reasons why the Qashqai's fuel consumption increases over time are as follows: Failure to perform regular maintenance: The vehicle may not have been serviced on time, and components such as the air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, and clutch plates may not have been replaced, leading to higher fuel consumption. Carbon buildup in the control system: Carbon deposits and faults in the electronic control system, such as carbon buildup in the throttle body, idle valve, and fuel injectors, as well as signal malfunctions in the oxygen sensor and coolant temperature sensor, are also factors contributing to increased fuel consumption. Poor driving habits: Driving habits can also increase the vehicle's fuel consumption. Rapid acceleration, sudden braking, and mismatched speed and gear selection are among the reasons for higher fuel usage. Insufficient tire pressure: Insufficient or low tire pressure increases friction between the tires and the ground, resulting in greater resistance and higher fuel consumption. Severe tire wear can also lead to frequent slipping, further increasing fuel consumption.

How to Add Refrigeration Oil to the Air Conditioning Compressor?

There are mainly three methods for adding refrigeration oil to the compressor. The following are the methods for adding refrigeration oil to the compressor: 1. Direct Addition: Add directly from the compressor. First, perform an oil return operation, which means running the compressor at idle speed with the control system set to the coldest and highest fan speed for 20-30 minutes to allow the oil to return to the compressor. Then, turn off the engine, release the refrigerant, remove the compressor from the vehicle, drain the old oil, and directly add or replenish new oil. 2. High-Pressure Side Addition: Add from the high-pressure side. Evacuate to 98 kPa, close the high-pressure side manual valve, and close the compressor service valve. Remove the high-pressure side hose from the pressure gauge head and insert it into the refrigeration oil. Open the service valve, and the refrigeration oil will be drawn into the system. Close the service valve immediately when the oil is almost fully drawn. 3. Low-Pressure Side Addition: No service valve is required. After evacuating to 98 kPa, close the low-pressure side manual valve and continue evacuating with the vacuum pump while keeping the high-pressure side manual valve open. Remove the low-pressure side hose from the pressure gauge head and insert it into the refrigeration oil to draw the oil. After drawing, reattach the hose to its original position, open the low-pressure side manual valve, and continue evacuating. Once evacuation is complete, proceed with the refrigerant charging operation.
