Tire blowouts caused by hitting potholes cannot continue to be used, as the blowout has severely damaged the tire sidewall and compromised the internal structure of the tire. Additionally, it is important to note that such blowouts cannot be repaired. Even if repaired, continued use poses significant safety hazards, and replacement is strongly recommended. Additional information: Other situations where repair is not possible: sidewall damage; puncture holes in the tread exceeding 6mm in diameter; damaged or deformed bead; tread deformation; rubber corroded by chemicals; tire damage from running flat. Precautions: Before setting off, carefully check tire pressure, tread condition, sidewall bulges, and overall tire wear. While driving, avoid speeding or overloading to prevent blowouts due to excessive tire stress. Furthermore, when encountering potholes or uneven road surfaces, try to avoid them if possible; if unavoidable, slow down and proceed with caution.

Does coasting in neutral affect the transmission of an automatic car?

Coasting in neutral does affect the transmission of an automatic car. The reasons are: 1. When idling, the engine's oil pressure output is low, resulting in insufficient lubrication supply, which can easily cause poor lubrication and severe wear of components such as the hydraulic directional valve and planetary gears; 2. It generates a large amount of heat, leading to oil carbonization and sludge formation, which can block oil passages and result in insufficient oil supply and poor lubrication after normal operation. The gear positions of an automatic car are: 1. P (Park) position is for parking and starting; 2. R (Reverse) position is for reversing; 3. N (Neutral) position is for neutral; 4. D (Drive) position is for forward movement, also known as the driving gear; 5. S (Sport) position is for sport mode; 6. L (Low) position is for low speed.

Should the Toyota Camry use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?

Toyota Camry uses 92 octane gasoline. The gasoline grade is divided according to the octane number, which is the ratio of gasoline's anti-knock performance to that of standard gasoline. The higher the grade, the stronger the anti-knock performance, but higher grades are not necessarily better. The appropriate gasoline grade should be selected based on the engine's compression ratio. The Toyota Camry is a mid-size 4-door 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4885mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1455mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2825mm.
