Mercedes-Benz E200 dashboard not lighting up may indicate a dashboard malfunction. Dashboard warning lights: Parking brake indicator, brake system fault warning light, steering system fault warning light, tire pressure abnormal warning light, lighting fault warning light, transmission fault warning light, wiper fault warning light, general fault indicator, anti-lock braking system (ABS) indicator, traction control indicator, airbag (SRS) warning light, etc. When the vehicle is started, all lights will illuminate for system self-check and automatically turn off after completion. If any light doesn't illuminate when turning on the ignition, remains lit continuously, or lights up during driving, it indicates a fault in the corresponding system. Solutions for dashboard warning lights: Engine fault light; The engine fault light is yellow. It illuminates during vehicle self-check when the power is on (without starting the engine) and turns off after engine start. If it lights up after starting or during driving, it indicates an engine fault. Stop the vehicle as soon as possible and contact a 4S shop or repair service. Brake system fault light; If the brake system fault light illuminates, first confirm if the parking brake is fully released. If it remains lit after releasing, check if the brake fluid level is normal or if brake pads are too thin. If braking force isn't weakened, drive cautiously and proceed to the nearest repair shop immediately.

Does exceeding the speed at the endpoint of an interval speed measurement count as speeding if the average speed over the interval is not exceeded?

Interval speed measurement only calculates the average speed from the starting point to the endpoint, so exceeding the speed limit at the endpoint does not count as speeding. Below is a detailed introduction to interval speed measurement: 1. Regulations: The management model of interval speed measurement on highways will be fully implemented. Speeding violations recorded by single-point speed measurement devices will be retained but not used as the basis for fines or penalty points, only as evidence for determining liability in traffic accidents. 2. Types: There are three main methods of speed measurement and evidence collection on highways: single-point speed measurement, interval speed measurement, and mobile speed measurement. Single-point speed measurement is mainly used for sections with varying speed limits, complex road conditions, and low safety standards. Due to these objective factors, drivers passing through single-point speed measurement sections tend to focus on avoiding speed traps, often braking abruptly upon seeing speed measurement warning signs. Moreover, speeding violations captured by single-point speed measurement can sometimes be coincidental.

What are the differences between Audi S4 and A4?

Audi S4 and A4 differences: 1. The main differences between Audi A4L and S4 lie in their appearance, driving feel, sound, and space. 2. The 'S' stands for Sport, featuring high-power engine tuning with significantly stronger performance. 3. The Audi S4 model is an upgraded version based on the standard Audi A4 model. In terms of appearance, the Audi S4 largely follows the design of the Audi A4. 4. In terms of driving experience, the Audi S4 is very easy to handle. Equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive system, the S4 can quickly enter corners. Even if the steering wheel is not fully straightened, rapid acceleration won’t cause loss of control. In sport mode, the engine and exhaust sounds are also quite pleasing. 5. In comfort mode, the interior sound of the S4 is almost indistinguishable from a standard A4L, indeed being very quiet. 6. In terms of space, the front row space of the Audi S4 performs quite well. Although the second-row space is not as spacious as the A4L, it is sufficient for daily use.

What specification of engine oil is suitable for BMW 530?

BMW 530 uses fully synthetic 5W-30 engine oil. Below are specific methods for selecting engine oil for vehicles: 1. Performance selection: If you prioritize long-lasting performance of the engine oil, you can choose Mobil engine oil; if you focus on the cleaning effect of the oil on the engine, Shell lubricants can be used; if you need lubricants with strong oil film toughness, Castrol is recommended. 2. Driving conditions: For frequent driving in congested areas, older vehicles, or long-distance heavy-load transportation, the viscosity of the lubricant can be appropriately increased. 3. Engine type: For naturally aspirated engines, mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil can be used. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, turbocharged engines have a more compact structure and operate under harsher conditions, requiring higher-grade lubricants with better fluidity, preferably fully synthetic engine oil.

What is the reason for the car's air conditioning not cooling after passing through a puddle?

It may be due to excessive refrigerant, which leads to a decrease in cooling efficiency. The refrigerant and refrigeration oil contain too many impurities, causing slight blockages and resulting in insufficient cooling capacity. Here is some relevant information: 1. Introduction: Freon is a common refrigerant, with many types, such as R22, R32, R134a, etc. Freon is generally a gas at normal temperature and pressure, with a slight aromatic odor. Under low temperature and high pressure, it appears as a transparent liquid. It can mix with halogenated hydrocarbons, monohydric alcohols, or other organic solvents in any proportion, and different types of Freon can also mix with each other. Due to its strong chemical stability, thermal stability, low surface tension, easy phase change between gas and liquid, non-toxicity, oil affinity, and low cost, Freon is widely used in industries such as refrigeration, foaming, solvents, sprays, and cleaning of electronic components. 2. Classification: Freon is roughly divided into three categories, including chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs).
