New cars should start maintenance at 3,000 to 5,000 kilometers. The first maintenance includes changing the engine lubricating oil, oil filter, gasoline filter, and air filter. Car maintenance refers to the regular preventive work of inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car. Its purpose is to keep the car clean, maintain normal technical conditions of the vehicle, eliminate hidden dangers, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process of parts, and extend the service cycle. Precautions for maintenance: 1. Avoid running the engine for a long time in an unventilated garage; 2. Avoid sucking the oil pipe with your mouth; 3. Avoid getting carburetor cleaner on the car body.

What is the reason for the reverse radar not displaying images?

When the car is just started, it may interfere with the operation of the reverse camera. You can try restarting to see the situation. The following are related introductions about reversing: 1. Precautions: Whether you are a novice or an experienced driver, this is a must-notice point. Not only should you not step on the accelerator while reversing, but you should also not half-step on the brake, especially for novices who should drive at a speed slower than idle speed. This way, you will have more time to observe the surrounding environment. 2. Basic essentials: When parking in a parking lot, first, visually estimate the width of the parking space, whether there are obstacles behind, whether there are cars parked on both sides, and whether the length is suitable for your car model. If you can't see clearly at night, get out and observe the exact position before reversing.

Can You Continue Driving with a Damaged Tire Tread?

Tire tread damage requires assessment based on the extent of the damage to determine if continued use is possible: If only the outer layer is slightly scratched with surface damage that doesn't affect the tire's structural integrity, it can still be used; however, if the sidewall is scraped with a large area or deep damage, it must not be used further. Continued use in such cases may lead to bulging at the damaged area, significantly increasing the risk of a blowout, which is highly dangerous and necessitates immediate replacement. There are various causes for tire tread scrapes, and the severity of damage varies. Even if the damage appears superficial, it might cause the wheel rim to deform under pressure. Therefore, while driving, pay attention to any unusual noises from the wheels or steering wobble.

How to Determine if the Clutch Plate is Worn Out?

Methods to determine if the clutch plate is worn out: 1. Difficulty in shifting gears, with gear grinding during shifts; 2. The clutch does not disengage properly, feeling weak, or being hard to press or not separating when the clutch pedal is depressed; 3. In severe cases, the car may not engage any gear, rendering it immobile. If the clutch is damaged and not repaired promptly, it can lead to further clutch damage, and in serious cases, the entire clutch assembly may need replacement. Clutch failures are mostly caused by incorrect driving habits. The clutch plate is a wear-prone component in the vehicle's drivetrain, and special attention should be paid to avoid keeping the foot on the clutch pedal while the engine is running.
