An automatic transmission car can shift directly from D to S gear. The D gear is the normal forward gear of the car, while the S gear is the sport mode. Switching between S and D can be done at any time, but it is not recommended to do so when the engine speed is high. In sport mode (S gear), the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high speeds for a longer time. This allows the car to move at low gears and high speeds for an extended period, resulting in greater torque output and acceleration. Automatic transmission generally refers to the car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the control system of the automatic transmission selects the appropriate gear based on the engine speed and load during driving, replacing the driver's subjective judgment and manual shifting operations.

What is the size of the Magotan's wheel rims?

The wheel rim size of the Magotan is 16 inches. The wheel rim is the central part of the wheel where the axle is installed, commonly referred to as the 'rim' or 'steel rim'. Wheel rims are prone to accumulating dirt, and if not cleaned for a long time, they may corrode and deform, leading to potential safety hazards. Wheel rims are divided into steel rims and alloy rims, with the differences as follows: 1. The main advantage of steel rims is their simple manufacturing process (usually using casting techniques, whereas alloy rims are typically produced using low-pressure casting), relatively lower cost, and strong resistance to metal fatigue. 2. Steel rims are heavier (the same rim made of steel is much heavier than one made of aluminum alloy), have greater inertial resistance, poorer heat dissipation, and are prone to rust. 3. Alloy rims are lighter in weight, have smaller inertial resistance, higher manufacturing precision, and less deformation at high speeds, which helps improve the vehicle's straight-line driving performance, reduces tire rolling resistance, and consequently decreases fuel consumption. 4. The thermal conductivity of alloy materials is about three times that of steel, providing better heat dissipation, which can have a positive effect on the vehicle's braking system, tires, and the thermal attenuation of the braking system.

Where is the Car Tire Pressure Monitoring Located?

Tire pressure monitoring devices can be divided into built-in tire pressure monitoring and external tire pressure monitoring based on the installation position of the sensor. The built-in type has its sensor installed inside the tire, replacing the original valve stem, while the external type adds a sensor outside the valve stem. Tire Pressure Monitoring: Tire pressure monitoring involves real-time automatic monitoring of tire pressure during vehicle operation, alerting drivers to tire leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts when tire pressure is too low or there is a leak. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in faster rotation compared to other wheels. By comparing the rotational speed differences between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure alert systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of tires to monitor pressure. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): TPMS combines the advantages of both systems mentioned above. It equips direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and includes a 4-wheel indirect system. Compared to a full direct system, this hybrid system reduces costs and overcomes the indirect system's inability to detect simultaneous low pressure in multiple tires. However, it still cannot provide real-time pressure data for all four tires as effectively as a direct system.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring on Volkswagen Tayron?

Method to reset the tire pressure light on Volkswagen Tayron: First, turn on the ignition, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "ding" sound, then release. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the warning light on the dashboard will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset. There are three commonly used tire pressure monitoring methods: Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the tire pressure data for each tire. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the air pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that tire to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to the other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between the tires, the system monitors the tire pressure. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): It combines the advantages of both systems mentioned above. Direct sensors are installed in two diagonally opposite tires, and a 4-wheel indirect system is also equipped.

What is the method to reset the tire pressure on the BYD Song?

BYD Song tire pressure needs to be reset, usually due to the following issues. After resolving these issues, driving a few kilometers will automatically reset the tire pressure. The issues are as follows: First: BYD Song tire pressure monitoring alarm. Tire pressure fault warning light: 1. When the 'Start/Stop' button is in the 'ON' position, this light turns on. If the tire pressure monitoring system is functioning normally, the light will turn off after a few seconds. Subsequently, if a system fault occurs, this light will turn on again. 2. When the tire pressure fault warning light turns on or flashes, and the right-side information display shows 'Please check the tire pressure monitoring system' with the tire pressure display interface showing '---', it indicates a fault in the tire pressure system. 3. When the tire pressure fault warning light flashes rapidly, and one or more values on the right-side information display tire pressure interface turn red, it indicates that the corresponding tire is in a rapid air loss state. 4. When the tire pressure fault warning light remains on, and one or more values on the right-side information display tire pressure interface turn yellow, it indicates that the corresponding tire is in an underinflated state. If any of the above situations occur, it is recommended to contact a BYD authorized service center for vehicle inspection. Second: Underinflated tire pressure alarm. 1. When the tire pressure of all four tires is below 75% of the standard tire pressure value and the system is operational, the tire pressure monitoring system will issue a low-pressure alarm signal within 1 minute and indicate the position of the underinflated tire. 2. After the low-pressure alarm, inflate the tire to the standard pressure. When the tire pressure exceeds 90% of the standard pressure, the low-pressure alarm will be canceled. After resolving the above issues, driving a few kilometers will automatically reset the tire pressure.
