Installing an electric tailgate will not affect the car. The related introduction of the electric tailgate is as follows: Manual and Automatic Opening: The driver or passenger can open or close the tailgate by pressing the tailgate switch on the vehicle, using the remote car key, or by sensing an operation with a hand or any object in the corresponding area of the tailgate. This allows for easy and quick storage of items in the vehicle when hands are full and opening the door is inconvenient. Intelligent Anti-Pinch Function: When closing the tailgate, sensors detect obstacles. If the electric tailgate encounters an obstacle during opening or closing, it will move in the opposite direction, effectively preventing injuries to children or damage to the vehicle. Emergency Lock Function: In case of an emergency requiring immediate closure of the tailgate, the electric tailgate can be stopped at any time during opening or closing by using the remote key or the tailgate switch on the vehicle, allowing for flexible control.

I've modified quite a few vehicle electronic devices myself, and installing a power tailgate does have an impact on the vehicle. First, it increases the burden on the electrical system. The original vehicle circuit design has limitations, and if the wiring is incorrectly connected or has poor contact after modification, it can easily lead to excessive generator load or even short circuits that burn out other components. Once, when I was helping a friend install one, the wiring harness wasn't secured properly, resulting in the tail lights flashing an alarm. Second, there's the issue of long-term reliability. Frequent use of the motor can cause wear and tear, affecting its overall lifespan, and its response slows down in cold weather. However, the benefits are obvious—it makes opening and closing the door much more convenient, especially when shopping or moving, saving a lot of effort. When modifying, it's essential to choose high-quality accessories and reputable shops to avoid cutting corners and losing more than you gain.

Does the Audi A6 not support lossless music?

Audi A6 supports some lossless audio formats, but it may not support the APE format. You can play lossless music using an SD card.

Create a playlist: Download an MP3 format song and place it in the same folder as the music list and the lossless music. The generated playlist must be in the same folder as the songs; otherwise, it cannot be played. Copy the folder: Copy the entire folder to the SD card. Insert the SD card into the car, and it will be read and played normally.

Why does the car air conditioner sometimes blow cold and sometimes hot?

The reasons why the car air conditioner sometimes blows cold and sometimes hot are: 1. Dirty air filter; 2. Damaged blower or air conditioning flap motor; 3. Insufficient refrigerant in the air conditioning system; 4. Dirty radiator or condenser; 5. Faulty air conditioning pressure sensor or evaporator box sensor. The car air conditioning system includes cooling devices, heating devices, and ventilation devices. This combined system makes full use of the limited space inside the vehicle with a simple structure. The car air conditioner is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and air flow inside the car compartment to an optimal state, providing passengers with a comfortable riding environment, reducing travel fatigue, creating good working conditions for the driver, and serving as an important ventilation device for ensuring safe driving.
