Whether replaced parts on a new car can be detected mainly depends on the location of the replacement. If it's in a more concealed area, it may not be noticeable. Below are some precautions for vehicle inspection: 1. Inspect the vehicle's exterior: Park the car in an outdoor area with ample lighting, examine the body paint for scratches or wear, ensure the paint is even, and check if it appears translucent under sunlight reflection. 2. Check the vehicle's identification plate: Open the driver's side door; the plate is usually located near the door or B-pillar, and verify the relevant information on it. 3. Inspect the engine compartment: Open the hood to check if the compartment is clean, free of dirt or dust buildup, and ensure sufficient levels of engine oil and other fluids. 4. Test internal functions: Manually check if the doors open and close smoothly, if the windows roll up and down properly, if there are any strong odors inside the car, if the air conditioning cools effectively, if the windshield wipers function correctly, and if all lights illuminate properly.

Do You Need to Press the Clutch When Decelerating a Manual Transmission Car?

When decelerating a manual transmission car, you do not need to press the clutch. However, during driving, when braking, each gear must ensure it is above the required speed; otherwise, you need to press the clutch to prevent stalling. The functions of the clutch include: 1. Gradually increasing the driving force of the car for a smooth start; 2. Temporarily separating the engine and the gearbox for shifting gears; 3. Preventing overload in the transmission system; 4. Reducing torsional vibration impacts from the engine to prolong the lifespan of transmission gears. The working principle of the clutch is: 1. When the inner ring is fixed, the outer ring can rotate freely clockwise as the wedges do not lock; 2. When the outer ring rotates counterclockwise, the wedges lock, preventing the outer ring from rotating.
