The reasons for steering wheel shaking at 100 km/h: 1. Incorrect front wheel alignment angles, excessive toe-in; 2. Low front tire pressure or tire imbalance caused by repairs; 3. Deformed front wheel rims or unequal number of tire bolts; 4. Loose installation of transmission system components; 5. Bent drive shaft, dynamic imbalance, deformed front axle; 6. Failed shock absorbers, inconsistent stiffness of front leaf springs, deformed frame. When steering wheel shaking occurs at high speeds, first check and optimize tire pressure, then perform four-wheel dynamic balancing, and finally conduct a four-wheel alignment. This will basically solve the problem of steering wheel shaking at high speeds; if the problem persists, it is recommended to go to a 4S shop for a thorough inspection of the chassis, braking system, and engine suspension system.

Is there a difference between the high and low power versions of Volkswagen's 1.4T engine?

Volkswagen's 1.4T high and low power versions differ in terms of price, power, and materials (technology). The specific differences are as follows: 1. In terms of price, the 1.4T high-power version is more expensive than the low-power version. 2. In terms of power, the 1.4T high-power version is stronger than the low-power version. It is important to note that power does not only refer to the 0-100 km/h acceleration time but also includes the car's top speed and whether there is sufficient power at maximum RPM, among other factors. 3. In terms of materials, the 1.4T high-power version has enhanced materials, which are better than those in the low-power version. Additional information: 1. The 1.4T high-power version has a maximum power of 110 KW, maximum horsepower of 150 PS, and maximum torque of 250 N·m. 2. The 1.4T low-power version has a maximum power of 96 KW, maximum horsepower of 131 PS, and maximum torque of 225 N·m.

Why does the antifreeze level decrease during use?

Antifreeze naturally depletes over time, but the rate of decrease is typically slow, usually lasting between six months to a year. During prolonged high-speed driving or frequent long-distance trips, evaporation of antifreeze may occur, but the loss should not be significant. If frequent top-ups are required, potential issues such as pipeline leaks, poor antifreeze circulation leading to overheating, or aging cylinder head gaskets should be considered. Additional information: 1. The full name of antifreeze should be antifreeze coolant, meaning it is a coolant with antifreeze properties. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing in cold winter conditions, which could otherwise cause the radiator to crack or damage the engine block or cylinder head. Antifreeze is a specially formulated coolant primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and resisting scale and corrosion year-round. 2. When adding new coolant, it should be done when the engine is cold. Fill the coolant to the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir, tighten the cap, and start the engine. Let it idle until it reaches normal operating temperature, then turn it off. Once the engine cools down, check that the coolant level in the reservoir remains at the "MAXT" mark. If not, add more coolant until it reaches the required level.

How much fuel is needed to fill up the Audi Q3's fuel tank?

Currently, there are 6 available models of the Audi Q3 on sale. The quattro version has a fuel tank capacity of 62.5 liters, while other versions have a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters. This data is announced by the automobile manufacturer, and owners who have purchased the Audi Q3 can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Audi Q3 requires 95-octane fuel. The quattro version has a fuel consumption of 7.5L per 100 kilometers, allowing it to travel 800KM on a full tank. Other versions have a fuel consumption of 6.7-6.8L per 100 kilometers, enabling them to travel 882-896KM on a full tank. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

What to Do When Turn Signals and Hazard Lights Don't Work?

If both the turn signals and hazard lights are not working, it is recommended to promptly check the vehicle's light switch and wiring harness for any short circuits. If necessary, visit a 4S shop for repairs as soon as possible. The solutions for non-functioning turn signals and hazard lights are as follows: 1. Check if the power line terminal of the flasher relay has electricity. If there is no power, inspect whether there is a break in the line to the power source. 2. If there is power, use a screwdriver to connect the two terminals of the flasher relay. If the turn signals light up, it indicates a fault in the flasher relay, which should be replaced. If they do not light up, inspect the flasher relay. Open the flasher relay cover and check if the coil and resistor are intact. If the resistor heats up and the contacts cannot close, press the movable contact; if the turn signals light up at this point, it indicates a fault in the relay. Adjust the contact gap if it is too large. If the turn signals still do not light up when pressing the movable contact to close the contacts, use a screwdriver to short-circuit the contacts. If the lights turn on, it indicates oxidation of the contacts. 3. If the turn signals do not light up when short-circuiting the two terminals of the flasher relay with a screwdriver, the issue may lie with the turn signal switch. During inspection, use a screwdriver to connect the power line of the turn signal switch to the left and right light line terminals separately. If the lights turn on, it indicates a fault in the turn signal switch, which should be removed for repair or replacement.
