Because turbocharged vehicles have a delayed fan shutdown feature. Below is relevant information about the engine compartment: 1. Overview: The engine compartment generally includes components such as the engine, air filter, battery, engine exhaust system, throttle valve, coolant reservoir, relay box, brake booster, throttle cable, windshield washer fluid reservoir, brake fluid reservoir, fuses, etc. 2. Components: Air filter (full name: air cleaner). A car cannot operate without the engine working, and the engine relies on the energy generated by fuel combustion, which requires extremely clean air for combustion. The air filter is the main component that provides clean air to the engine. The lifespan of an air filter is related to usage frequency and environment. Generally, for ordinary family cars, the air filter element should be replaced during each maintenance service.

What causes severe shaking when holding the brake in D gear?

It is most likely caused by damaged engine mounts. Severe clutch wear: When stopping in D gear, slippage can also occur because wear reduces the friction between the two. Sliding friction generates abnormal vibrations and rapidly increases the clutch temperature. Therefore, when stopping in D gear at relatively low temperatures, regular resonance or abnormal noises may occur. Torque converter wear: After severe wear, abnormal slippage cannot be ruled out. Additionally, issues such as worn or loose power output shafts, transmission gear or bearing problems, or engine carbon buildup causing idle shaking may contribute. When in D gear, the engine needs to output power, and the RPM will be slightly higher than idle speed. However, if the throttle, intake/exhaust valves, spark plugs, or fuel injectors have severe carbon buildup, air intake, fuel injection, and combustion efficiency will deteriorate at low RPMs.

Why Does a Manual Transmission Car Jerk When Starting?

Manual transmission cars may jerk when starting due to the following reasons: Improper operation: The jerking sensation during startup could be caused by improper operation. Many people experience a couple of jerks when releasing the clutch after engaging the gear. The most direct reasons are releasing the clutch too quickly or not matching it with the throttle. Spark plugs overdue for replacement: Jerking might also occur if the spark plugs are not igniting smoothly. Spark plugs generally need to be replaced every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometers. Transmission clutch slipping: Slipping of the transmission clutch can also cause jerking during startup. Check if there is a burnt smell or excessive dirt in the transmission, and replace the transmission fluid if necessary.

Can halogen headlights be replaced after three years of use?

Halogen headlights can be replaced after 3 years of use. Service life: Ordinary halogen car headlights typically have a service life of only 500 hours. Replacement cycle: With an average daily usage of 2.5 hours, the replacement cycle for headlights is 200 days. Headlights don't necessarily need to be replaced only when they stop working; they should be replaced when the brightness becomes insufficient or dim. Replacement recommendations: More expensive headlights aren't always better. You should choose models suitable for your vehicle. Additionally, xenon headlight modifications have strict requirements for the lighting system wiring. Poor-quality headlights have a short lifespan and cannot guarantee stable quality. High-quality headlights offer good light distribution and high brightness, while inferior ones lack sufficient brightness, poor focus, and short projection distance.

What is the principle of steering when reversing a car?

The steering principle when reversing a car is that the direction in which the steering wheel is turned is the same as the direction in which the tires turn. Below is relevant information about reversing: Precautions: Whether you're a novice or an experienced driver reversing, this is a crucial point to note. Not only should you avoid pressing the accelerator while reversing, but you should also avoid half-pressing the brake. Especially for novices, reversing should be done at a speed slower than idle speed. This allows more time to observe the surrounding environment. Basic essentials: When parking in a parking lot, first, visually estimate the width of the parking space, check for any obstacles behind, whether there are vehicles parked on either side, and whether the length is suitable for your vehicle model. If visibility is poor at night, get out and observe the exact position before reversing.

When to Use Hill Descent Control?

Hill Descent Control should be used in the following situations: 1. When driving on steep slopes; 2. When driving on long downhill sections; 3. When navigating mountain switchbacks. Also known as a slope control system, Hill Descent Control allows drivers to smoothly descend steep slopes without needing to press the brake pedal. The system automatically applies braking to individual wheels as needed, maintaining a speed slightly faster than walking pace while allowing the driver to focus entirely on steering. The function of Hill Descent Control is to enhance vehicle controllability on steep slopes by applying temporary braking force to the front axle, compensating for engine braking.

Is There a Labor Charge for Tire Replacement?

Is there a labor charge for tire replacement. Tire replacement cost requirements: After replacement, a wheel balance is generally required. "Tire rotation" will incur a portion of the labor charge. Prices may also vary depending on the specific region. Tire prices differ based on the brand. Preparations before tire replacement: Turn off the vehicle and engage the handbrake to prevent the car from rolling. All passengers must exit the vehicle. Cars should have their front and rear tires on the same side swapped approximately every 10,000 kilometers. Most family cars are front-wheel drive, where the front wheels are responsible for both steering and driving the entire vehicle, leading to uneven wear between the front and rear tires. Additionally, tire wear is related to the distribution of the vehicle's weight, and tire rotation greatly helps in achieving even tire wear.
