7-speed dual-clutch transmission can coast in neutral, here are the detailed explanations: 1. Hazards of coasting in neutral: Coasting in neutral is an extremely unsafe behavior and can also damage the transmission. 2. The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission is a dry clutch system developed based on 6-speed transmission technology: The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission simplifies the related hydraulic system and can be paired with small-displacement engines. The dual clutch is installed in a sealed oil chamber. While the dry friction plates on the driven disc provide direct transmission efficiency, they can only withstand relatively small torque. 3. Dual-clutch transmission vehicles are not recommended to coast in neutral: You can coast in neutral to a complete stop when driving at ultra-low speeds before braking.

Can ETC be installed on the black dotted area of the windshield?

The ETC device can be installed on the black dotted area of the windshield, as long as it does not obstruct the driver's view and can detect the toll station's scanning equipment. However, installing it on the black dotted area has drawbacks, such as reduced solar charging capability, which may lead to the device running out of power over time. For small vehicles, the ETC is generally installed in the upper middle section of the windshield, while for large trucks and buses, it is installed in the lower middle section. The appropriate installation height is between 1.2 meters and 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. If the vehicle has or is later fitted with anti-explosion film, which may interfere with microwave signal transmission, the ETC should be installed in the microwave window strip. Here are some considerations for ETC installation: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have windshields with a steep incline, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. Installing the ETC without considering this may increase blind spots. Installing it behind the rearview mirror on the right side can help avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a built-in solar panel for self-charging. Therefore, avoid installing it on the black dotted area of the windshield or any location that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it arbitrarily: The adhesive button in the middle is an anti-tamper lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield presses the lever in. If removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out, triggering the switch and locking the electronic tag, rendering it unusable. You would then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This feature prevents multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent issues caused by the preceding vehicle's ETC device malfunction, maintain a distance of at least 10 meters to avoid automatic payment for the preceding vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 km/h; driving too fast may result in failed fee deductions due to inability to read the vehicle's device information. If using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause payment failure.

What brand of tires does Jaguar use?

Jaguar tires are from the Pirelli brand. Pirelli tires are products of the Italian company Pirelli. Below is an introduction to tires: 1. Functions of tires: Mainly include dry grip, hydroplaning resistance, providing comfort, reducing driving noise, impact resistance, wet grip, load capacity, handling performance, average wear, and mileage. 2. Tire cross-section structure: Generally, it can be divided into four parts: tread, shoulder, sidewall, and bead. Each part has its own function. The tread mainly contacts the ground, the shoulder and sidewall provide support, and the bead contacts the wheel rim to provide sealing. 3. Internal composition of tires: The inside of the tire is composed of multiple layers of different materials, including tread pattern, overlay, steel belt layer, stress absorption rubber strip, carcass ply layer, and inner liner.

Can You Drive When the Exhaust Pipe Is Submerged in Water?

You cannot drive when the exhaust pipe is submerged in water. Here is an introduction to car exhaust pipe knowledge: 1. Definition: The automobile exhaust corrugated pipe, also known as the automobile exhaust flexible pipe, is installed in the exhaust pipe between the engine exhaust manifold and the muffler. It provides a flexible connection for the entire exhaust system, thereby reducing vibration and noise, facilitating installation, and extending the service life of the exhaust muffler system. 2. Material Selection: Ferritic stainless steel has a small thermal expansion coefficient, high thermal conductivity, excellent high-temperature oxidation resistance under repeated heating and cooling conditions, and good corrosion resistance.

How to remotely open car windows with the car key?

Press and hold the unlock button for about five seconds to open all four door windows and the sunroof. Here is some relevant information about car keys: 1. Key anti-theft code: When a new car leaves the factory, it usually comes with 2 to 3 keys. At the same time, each new car has a configured key anti-theft code. If only one key is provided, the 4S store can query the anti-theft code of the configured key from the database based on the vehicle license and the owner's ID card provided by the owner. After obtaining this code, the 4S store will require the owner to provide the key tooth shape number to configure a new metal key. 2. Lost car key: If you lose your car key, you can call 110 or 114 for help. If you call 110 or 114, they will transfer your call to the corresponding coordination center, which will notify a nearby or on-duty lock and key service company. A professional will immediately contact the owner to help solve the problem.

What are the causes and solutions for engine belt noise?

Mostly due to the aging of various belt groups in the engine, the solution is to replace the belt or lightly sand the contact surface between the pulley and the belt with No. 100 sandpaper (light sanding is sufficient). Here is some related information about engines: 1. Concept: An engine (Engine) is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. For example, internal combustion engines typically convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. 2. Classification: Internal combustion engines, external combustion engines (where fuel burns outside the engine), gas turbines, and jet engines.

What is the reason for the grinding noise when starting and shifting gears in FAW J6P?

Due to the design factors of the vehicle itself. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Synchronizer: The smoothness of gear shifting in a car is largely affected by the clutch and synchronizer. However, some car models do not use synchronizers for first gear and reverse gear, which causes the rotational speed difference between the engine power output shaft and the transmission power output shaft during gear shifting, resulting in abnormal noise. 2. Severe clutch wear: A reduced free travel of the clutch pedal may also cause abnormal noise. During operation, the clutch cannot completely disconnect the power connection between the engine and the transmission, leading to a significant speed difference during gear shifting. This makes it difficult for the two gears to mesh properly, resulting in a grinding noise during gear shifting.
