Halogen lights cannot be directly replaced with LED bulbs. Replacing halogen lights with LED bulbs requires changing the entire LED light assembly; simply replacing the bulb alone is ineffective. If the original vehicle lacks a lens, it is not recommended to modify the lights, as the improvement in effect will be minimal and may cause driver glare, impairing visibility and posing significant safety risks. LED car lights are suitable for various automotive lighting applications, including headlights (high beam and low beam), fog lights, taillights, brake lights, turn signals, daytime running lights, pedal illumination lights, instrument panel lights, license plate lights, door lights, interior lighting, position lights, navigation, entertainment systems, backlights, and indicator lights.

What does 'Please shift to P gear' mean?

It is continuously displaying 'Please shift to P gear' due to a damaged gear shift switch. Below is relevant information: 1. The function of gear shifting: It is used to change the torque and speed of the engine crankshaft to meet the varying requirements of traction force and speed for the driving wheels under different driving conditions such as starting, accelerating, driving, and overcoming various road obstacles. 2. The functions of other gears: They allow the car to drive at a very low and stable speed, which is difficult to achieve solely by the minimum stable speed of the internal combustion engine; the reverse gear of the transmission enables the car to move backward; the neutral gear allows the car to separate the engine from the transmission system for a long time when starting the engine, parking, or coasting.

How to Use the S Gear in the 2019 Bora?

Usage of the S gear in the 2019 Bora: The S gear is the car's sport mode. In S gear sport mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shift timing is delayed, allowing the engine to maintain high RPM for a longer period. This enables the car to travel at high RPM in lower gears for an extended time, thereby achieving greater torque output and acceleration. While driving, simply push the gear lever into the S gear position. It is typically used for climbing hills and quick overtaking. The Bora is a compact car from FAW-Volkswagen, equipped with a 1.2T 116 horsepower L4 engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The engine has a maximum power of 85 kW and a maximum torque of 200 Nm.

What does BSM mean when displayed on a car?

BSM stands for Blind Spot Monitoring system, also known as Lane Change Assist system. It helps to avoid collisions or scrapes caused by not seeing vehicles approaching from behind when changing lanes during driving. Additional information: 1. Reducing lane-changing safety hazards: The system uses radar sensors hidden inside the left and right sides of the rear bumper to monitor the area up to 20 meters behind the vehicle in real time. If a vehicle or other obstacle is detected within the driver's blind spot, it immediately sends an alert to the receiving device installed on the edge of the rearview mirror, reducing the risk of collisions during lane changes. 2. Reducing judgment uncertainty: The Blind Spot Monitoring system minimizes uncertainty in judgment by allowing the driver to observe the distance between vehicles through the system, thereby enhancing overall vehicle safety.
