Why is the Tiggo 7's fuel consumption getting higher and higher?

The reasons for the increasing fuel consumption of the Tiggo 7 include aging spark plugs leading to incomplete combustion of gasoline, tire wear and insufficient tire pressure, and aging oxygen sensors. It could also be due to excessive carbon buildup in areas such as the throttle body, idle motor, intake valves, intake pipes, combustion chamber, spark plugs, and fuel injectors. This carbon buildup can block the idle channel, causing the idle motor to stick or exceed its adjustment range, resulting in low idle speed, unstable idle, high fuel consumption, and stalling. Summer air conditioning system check: Air conditioning malfunctions are a significant cause of high fuel consumption. Poor cooling performance forces the system to increase fan speed and lower temperature to achieve a cooling effect. Avoid frequent sudden braking: Frequent sudden braking is a primary reason for persistently high vehicle fuel consumption. While ensuring safe driving, make full use of the vehicle's inertia. Small-displacement vehicles should not use air conditioning too aggressively: For vehicles exposed to the sun, avoid turning on the air conditioning immediately after entering. First, open the windows and set the fan to a higher speed without turning on the air conditioning to expel the hot air inside. Wait until the vehicle has cooled down moderately before turning on the air conditioning.

Is an Electronic Driver's License Valid?

Electronic driver's licenses are valid. Commonly referred to as "e-licenses," the electronic driver's license pilot program was launched on June 1, 2021, in three cities—Tianjin, Chengdu, and Suzhou—to provide drivers with online "license display" and "code verification" services, enhancing convenience for public travel and transactions. The program is set to be fully implemented nationwide by 2022. Driver's License Overview: A driver's license, short for motor vehicle driving license and also known as a "driving permit," is a legal document required for individuals to operate motor vehicles. A driver's license is a form of authorization: Driving a motor vehicle requires specific skills. Without these skills, reckless driving can lead to traffic accidents. Unlicensed drivers are prohibited from operating vehicles on roads. For those who have acquired safe driving skills, the authorization to drive is granted through a "driver's license," making it a "permit." Definition of a Driver's License: Internationally, a driver's license is defined as: "A document issued by competent authorities permitting the holder to drive a motor vehicle." In China, it is defined as: "A motor vehicle driver's license is a legal credential issued by administrative authorities to individuals who, after studying traffic laws and mastering driving skills, pass the required examinations, permitting them to operate specific types of motor vehicles."

Can the Idle Speed of an EFI Motorcycle Be Adjusted?

Currently, domestic EFI motorcycles are divided into two systems: one with adjustable idle speed and one without. For the adjustable type, the idle speed adjustment screw is installed on the air passage next to the throttle body. By adjusting the idle speed screw, the air intake is controlled, thereby adjusting the idle speed. The non-adjustable type is set by the computer program. If there is unstable idle speed, it is definitely caused by a vehicle malfunction. Mechanical faults: Valve leakage, negative pressure pipe leakage, or injector malfunction, resulting in poor atomization. Clogged or leaking fuel injectors causing the mixture to be too lean or too rich. Excessive fuel pressure causing the mixture to be too rich, or insufficient fuel pressure causing the mixture to be too lean. Clogged fuel filter, faulty fuel pressure regulator, etc. Faults due to incorrect sensor signals: Such as throttle position sensor, intake air temperature sensor, intake pressure sensor, oxygen sensor, etc. Damage to the sensor or short circuit/open circuit in the sensor wiring causing incorrect signals. After receiving these incorrect signals, the ECU computer is confused, struggling, and under immense pressure, unable to accurately determine the required fuel injection amount for the current operating condition, resulting in unstable idle speed.

Why does the car horn suddenly keep sounding?

The car horn suddenly keeps sounding because the touch-sensitive chip inside has become loose or detached, coming into contact with the switch, causing it to sound continuously. Generally, when pressing the horn, avoid applying excessive force. Some people develop a habit of pressing too hard, leading to damage. Function of the car horn: The horn is the audio signaling device of a car. During driving, the driver uses it to emit necessary sound signals as required or regulated, warning pedestrians and alerting other vehicles to ensure traffic safety. It is also used for urging movement and transmitting signals. Working principle of the car horn: The car electric horn produces sound through the vibration of a metal diaphragm. It consists of an iron core, magnetic coil, contacts, armature, diaphragm, etc. When the driver presses the horn switch, current flows through the contacts to the coil, generating magnetic force that pulls down the armature, forcing the diaphragm to move. The movement of the armature disconnects the contacts, interrupting the current and causing the magnetic force to disappear. The diaphragm, along with the armature, returns to its original position due to its own elasticity and the spring plate, closing the contacts again and allowing current to flow through the coil to generate magnetic force, repeating the process. This cycle continues, causing the diaphragm to vibrate repeatedly and produce sound. The resonance board, rigidly connected to the diaphragm, ensures smooth vibration and produces a more pleasant sound (i.e., the principle of an electromagnet).

Where to Buy Replacement Glass for an Electric Quadricycle?

If the glass of your electric quadricycle is broken, it is best to consult and purchase from the vehicle's after-sales service shop. This is because the size and specifications of the windshield vary for each vehicle model, and only the original manufacturer's parts can be obtained through the official after-sales service. Below are methods for repairing car glass cracks: Repair with Professional Tools: Short cracks in car glass are typically repaired using specialized repair tools and resin. The resin is injected into the crack using the repair tool, where it solidifies and eliminates the gap, thereby achieving the repair. It is important to note that if a crack appears in the glass, it should be repaired as soon as possible if repairable, or replaced promptly if necessary. This is because, during driving, the windshield is subjected to wind resistance and constant vibrations. Over time, small cracks can gradually extend, lengthen, and expand in area. What might have been a repairable crack could eventually require a full replacement. For Long Cracks, Replacement is Recommended: Long cracks in car glass are difficult to repair effectively. Large cracks often leave noticeable marks after repair, and the strength of the windshield cannot be guaranteed, posing a risk of re-cracking and potential safety hazards. Therefore, replacing the glass is advised. Additionally, glass replacement can be expensive, so it is recommended to utilize insurance coverage if available.

Why Are Sports Cars Naturally Aspirated?

Sports cars are naturally aspirated because their engines have high power and torque, eliminating the need for turbocharging. Below are methods to determine the grade of an engine: Determining by Cylinder Count: Generally, based on different displacement sizes, car engines can be categorized into three-cylinder, four-cylinder, six-cylinder, and eight-cylinder types. Currently, three-cylinder engines are nearly extinct, while L4 (inline four-cylinder engines) and V6 (V-type six-cylinder engines) are the more common types in mainstream mid-to-high-end models. The more cylinders an engine has, the higher the technical requirements, and consequently, the higher the grade of the car it is equipped in. On the other hand, the key factor determining engine performance is still technology. Transmission: Looking at automotive transmission technology, traditional automatic transmissions have begun to evolve from 'stepped' to 'stepless'—this is the 'continuously variable' transmission, also known as 'CVT,' which refers to a transmission system that does not use gears in the speed-changing system, providing smooth and 'stepless' speed ratio conversion. Unlike traditional automatic transmissions, CVT continuously variable transmissions can eliminate the sense of impact during gear shifts and torque transmission, ensuring the engine maintains optimal torque during driving, thereby further enhancing the vehicle's ride comfort.
