Water dripping from the Golf's exhaust pipe occurs because gasoline, after complete combustion, produces water vapor and carbon dioxide. Water vapor is colorless and transparent at high temperatures, but when the temperature drops below 100 degrees, the water vapor condenses into water. Taking the 2021 Golf as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4296mm in length, 1788mm in width, and 1471mm in height, a wheelbase of 2636mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters. The 2021 Golf is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 116 PS, a maximum power of 85 kW, and a maximum torque of 200 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

What does the car light 'a' mean?

The car light indicator with an 'a' means that the engine auto start-stop function is turned off. To activate the engine auto start-stop function, simply press the auto start-stop button. Below are specific details about the engine auto start-stop function: 1. Introduction: The engine auto start-stop function automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (e.g., at a red light) during driving. When it's time to move forward again, the system automatically restarts the engine. The STT intelligent fuel-saving system is a set of controls for engine start and stop. 2. Principle: By installing an enhanced motor with idle start-stop functionality in a traditional engine, the system ensures that the engine completely shuts off when the vehicle meets idle stop conditions. When the vehicle needs to start moving again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's command, rapidly restarting the engine for seamless transition, thereby significantly reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. 3. Control System: The STT intelligent fuel-saving system is a set of controls for engine start and stop. The system uses a computer to determine the vehicle's status, such as when it's stopped at a red light or in traffic congestion. The computer can then control the engine to automatically stop running. During the stop phase, the use of in-car air conditioning, audio, and other equipment is not affected. This technology can save up to 5% of fuel under normal road conditions and up to 15% in congested areas.

Where is the cabin air filter located in a Mercedes-Benz GLK?

Mercedes-Benz GLK cabin air filter is located in the engine compartment. Open the engine hood, locate the cover panel with the Mercedes logo, and after removing it, you will see the cabin air filter. The functions of the cabin air filter are as follows: 1. It can filter dust, pollen, and other particulate impurities from the air; 2. It can absorb moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, etc., providing fresh air inside the car, preventing passengers from inhaling harmful gases, and ensuring driving safety; 3. It can effectively sterilize and deodorize, ensuring clean air in the cabin without bacterial growth.

Where is the cabin air filter located in the Wuling Rongguang Mini Truck?

The cabin air filter of the Wuling Rongguang Mini Truck is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. Below are specific details about the Wuling Rongguang Mini Truck: 1. Powertrain: The vehicle is equipped with a B12 engine. The first gear ratio of the transmission has been increased from 3.769 to 3.857, and the rear axle ratio has been raised from 5.125 to 5.286, resulting in a 5% increase in torque output. This enhances the truck's power performance during low-speed driving and hill climbing. 2. Exterior: The Wuling Rongguang Mini Truck maintains the classic exterior design of the Wuling Rongguang series. Its well-proportioned body and streamlined contours effectively reduce wind resistance. It features European-style three-dimensional wide-angle exterior rearview mirrors that provide a larger rear field of vision. 3. Safety: The safety features of the Wuling Rongguang Mini Truck are derived from the Wuling Rongguang microvan. Building upon the excellent design of the Rongguang, the truck utilizes CAE simulation technology and virtual 3D digital modeling to optimize and improve the front energy-absorbing structure of the passenger compartment, passenger compartment design, and body structure. Compared to traditional micro vehicles, its front energy-absorbing structure is more effective during collisions, reducing potential harm to passengers.

What does it mean when the ECAS warning light is on?

ECAS malfunction indicates a fault in the air suspension system that requires repair. Below is an introduction to ECAS-related content: Air Suspension System: The electronically controlled air suspension system (ECAS) for buses/trucks consists of an ECAS electronic control unit, solenoid valves, height sensors, air springs, and other components. The height sensors are responsible for detecting changes in vehicle height. The electronic control unit receives input information, determines the current vehicle status, and activates the solenoid valves to regulate inflation/deflation of each air spring. ECAS: Introduction to ECAS The traditional air suspension control mode uses mechanical height valves, which maintain constant vehicle ride height by adjusting air spring inflation/deflation through the opening of height valves.

What does D-4ST represent?

D-4ST is a twin-scroll turbocharged engine. Below are relevant details about D-4ST: Introduction: The "D" engine adopts a dual injection system, "4" represents 4-stroke, "S" stands for the enhanced version, and "T" indicates turbocharging. D4S Principle: D4S dual-mode fuel injection. Unlike other manufacturers' pure direct injection, D4S combines both direct injection and port injection designs. During cold starts and low-load conditions, port injection ensures more thorough fuel mixing and cleans the intake tract, preventing carbon buildup and dirt accumulation in the intake tract and valves. At medium loads, direct injection starts to intervene, while under heavy loads, only the direct injection system operates. The two sets of fuel injection systems combine the advantages of both port injection and direct injection.

How to Use Civic's Remote Start?

New Civic's correct remote start operation method is as follows: 1. First press the lock button on the smart key. 2. Then long press the circular button at the bottom left for 5 seconds. When you see the car's turn signals flash, it means the engine has started. The car remote start control system can only be installed on automatic transmission models. The reason is that automatic transmissions are equipped with a TCU control unit, which informs the ECU engine control unit about the gear position. The engine will only start when the vehicle's computer confirms the gear is in the P (Park) position. This is to prevent accidental vehicle movement. Aftermarket installations do not have this protective function.
