Manual transmission gear lever becomes loose due to wear of the plastic washer at the linkage joint between the shift lever and the transmission or loose screws. The following are solutions and precautions: Solutions: Disassemble the shift lever, replace the new plastic washer and tighten the screws. If it does not affect daily gear shifting, it can also be left unreplaced. Precautions for manual transmission gear shifting: The clutch pedal should be quickly pressed to the bottom. After shifting gears, the clutch pedal should be lifted quickly at the beginning, and when it reaches the semi-linked state, it should be lifted slowly, and then quickly lifted until released. When shifting gears, master the timing of shifting, the clutch should be pressed to the bottom in one step, and the gear should be shifted in place in one step.

Will the car be damaged if it gets submerged in rain?

Will the car be damaged if it gets submerged in rain? The answer is yes. Here are some relevant introductions about water-damaged vehicles: 1. Concept: A water-damaged vehicle refers to a car that has been soaked in water, usually meaning the engine and transmission have been submerged, with the water level exceeding the wheels and body seats, and the bottom parts of the vehicle have been in prolonged contact with water. Such vehicles pose significant risks, as the electrical circuits are prone to short circuits and even fires. If the system is merely damp or has minor short circuits, generally there is no major issue; the circuits can be dried naturally or with a hairdryer to restart the car. In severe cases, the fuse may need to be replaced. 2. Insurance: There are two types of insurance related to vehicle submersion: the most common is the vehicle damage insurance, and the other is called the engine special loss insurance, commonly known as water submersion insurance.

Does the 2021 Q5L have a particulate filter?

The 2021 Q5L has 8 models. Among them, the 40TFSI models are equipped with particulate filters, while the 45TFSI models are not. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the exhaust system of diesel engines, which captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. It can reduce the soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Working principle of the particulate filter: The diesel particulate filter is coated with metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium. The black smoke containing carbon particles emitted by the diesel engine enters the exhaust particulate filter through a dedicated pipe. After passing through its densely arranged bag-type filter, the carbon particles are adsorbed onto the filter made of metal fiber felt. When the amount of adsorbed particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites and burns, turning the adsorbed carbon particles into harmless carbon dioxide that is then expelled. To check whether the 2021 Q5L is equipped with a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: Check the and to see if they mention the particulate filter function. Additionally, carefully review the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "particulate filter" warning light indicator. Check the label on the oil filler cap. If the cap clearly states the use of 0W-20 grade oil, it indicates the presence of a particulate filter. Look behind the catalytic converter to see if there is an additional cylindrical section on the exhaust pipe. If there is, that is the particulate filter.
