Generally, if the tire damage is larger than six millimeters, roughly the width of a little finger visible to the naked eye, then even if the tire is repaired very well, it should not be used on highways due to the relatively high risk of a blowout. Below is the relevant information: Tire Maintenance: After driving a certain distance, the condition of the tires should be checked promptly. If any issues are found, the tire should be repaired or replaced immediately. Before driving on highways, potential tire safety hazards should be eliminated. Advantages of Mushroom Plug Tire Repair: Mushroom plug tire repair is commonly known as the elite of tire repairs, renowned for its high price and excellent results.

How many liters are left when the fuel gauge shows 2 bars?

The fuel gauge showing 2 bars indicates there are approximately 10~12L of fuel remaining in the tank. It is recommended to refuel promptly when the low fuel warning light comes on, as the fuel pump relies on fuel for cooling. Insufficient fuel levels can impair the cooling effect of the fuel pump and may also increase its operational noise. Relevant information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Introduction: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), with a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption in the engine. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. 2. Composition: Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary component, determining the fundamental properties of the lubricant, while additives compensate for and enhance the base oil's performance, imparting new characteristics and playing a vital role in the lubricant's overall effectiveness.

What are the differences between oil-based coolant and water-based coolant?

Water-based antifreeze has lower maintenance costs, while oil-based antifreeze is more expensive. Water-based coolant has some corrosiveness to the cooling system, whereas oil-based coolant is almost non-corrosive. Compared to water-based coolant, oil-based coolant performs better. Unlike water-based coolant, oil-based coolant does not contain water and cannot be mixed with water, giving it more sensitive thermal balance capability and better heat transfer performance. Relevant information about antifreeze is as follows: 1. Introduction: The full name of antifreeze should be antifreeze coolant, meaning it is a coolant with antifreeze properties. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing and cracking the radiator or damaging the engine cylinder block or cylinder head when the vehicle is parked in cold winter conditions. 2. Function: It provides anti-corrosion protection for components of the cooling system; prevents scale formation, avoiding reduced heat dissipation in the radiator; and ensures the engine operates within the normal temperature range.

Can a Car Still Be Driven After Engine Seizure?

After an engine seizure, the car should not continue to be driven. Engine seizure is a serious malfunction, and forcing the engine to start at this time can lead to complete engine failure. When an engine seizure occurs, the car should be promptly pulled over to the roadside, the engine turned off, and a tow truck called as soon as possible. Engine seizure is usually caused by excessive piston expansion due to high temperatures at high engine speeds, which causes the piston to get stuck in the cylinder. In severe cases, the engine may also emit thick smoke. The symptoms of an engine seizure are as follows: 1. Noticeably increased engine noise. During an engine seizure, the overheated and expanded piston will violently rub against the cylinder block, resulting in abnormal engine noises. 2. The engine vibration becomes very noticeable, and in severe cases, black smoke may be emitted. 3. The radiator temperature becomes excessively high.

What to Do If You Keep Crossing the Lines in Subject 2 S-Turn?

Solutions for frequently crossing the lines in Subject 2 S-turn are as follows: 1. During the test, avoid being nervous and keep the vehicle speed slow. Especially when navigating the S-turn, the speed should be even slower. If the speed is too fast and the steering wheel is turned abruptly, significant deviation is likely to occur, inevitably leading to crossing the lines. 2. Excessive speed during the test may result in an invalid score. This is because there are sensors on the road that may fail to detect your performance, which naturally won't count. A speed of 30km/h is most suitable for navigating the S-turn. 3. Once the speed is properly controlled, simply use the hood as a reference and align it with the left and right boundaries of the S-turn. Keep the front of the car tracing along the boundary lines, and avoid making excessively large movements when turning the steering wheel.

How to Open the Door When the Car Battery is Dead and the Door Won't Open?

Solutions for a dead car battery are as follows: 1. If the door can't even be opened in an emergency, you can use jumper cables to connect to someone else's battery and start the car using their battery. 2. Alternatively, remove the battery and take it to a battery shop for charging. Since the battery is completely dead, short-term driving won't fully charge it; a longer charging period is required to restore its capacity. 3. If the car battery is dead and the door can't be opened with the remote, you can also try using the mechanical key to open the door. The working principle of a mechanical door lock involves using the mechanical energy from turning the key to drive the gears and achieve the opening or closing of the door. The basic components of a mechanical door lock mainly include the door lock switch, door lock actuator, and door lock controller.
