Don't worry if your car's electronic key runs out of battery, as there is still a manual key inside the electronic key that can be used to manually unlock the door. Here are the detailed steps: 1. Operation: First, remove the mechanical key from the smart key and use it to open the car door. Then, press the key against the marked side of the ignition to start the vehicle. Finally, remember to replace the battery in the smart key. 2. Replacing the Battery: Remove the mechanical key from the smart key (the L-shaped key). Carefully observe the top of the smart key, which has deep and shallow grooves. Insert the L-shaped key into the shallow groove of the smart key and push it all the way in. You will notice that the back cover of the smart key automatically pops off. Remove the old battery, replace it with a new one, reattach the back cover, and reinsert the mechanical key.

What to Do If There's a Hole Poked in the Side of the Tire?

Solution for a hole poked in the side of the tire: A hole in the side of the tire is relatively troublesome. If it has been punctured through and is leaking air, you should go to a local tire shop for inspection and treatment as soon as possible. Generally, damage to the side of the tire cannot be repaired, and the side is crucial to the overall structural safety of the tire. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery for rolling on the ground. They are often used under complex and harsh conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must have high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance, flex resistance, and low rolling resistance and heat generation.

How often should the transmission fluid in a CRV be changed?

For CRV manual transmission models, the transmission fluid should be changed every 60,000 kilometers. For automatic transmission models, the first change should be at 60,000 kilometers, followed by every 40,000 kilometers thereafter. The automatic transmission models of the CRV are equipped with a CVT transmission, which requires transmission fluid for cooling, so owners need to change the transmission fluid regularly. CVT transmissions are compact, lightweight, and have low manufacturing costs, and this type of transmission is commonly found in many Japanese cars. Most CVT transmissions come with a high-temperature protection system that automatically limits the vehicle's speed when the transmission temperature becomes too high.

What Causes Abnormal Noises from the Chassis After Starting the Car?

If abnormal noises from the chassis after starting the car only occur on bumpy or concrete roads, check for looseness in the shock absorbers, lower control arms, drive shafts, steering linkages, as well as brake calipers and brake pads. There are several aspects to abnormal noises from the chassis: 1. When driving straight at low speeds and suddenly pressing the accelerator, a metallic clanking sound may occur if the inner CV joint is damaged. Since the CV joint transmits power, the damaged part will inevitably produce abnormal noises when the load on the CV joint reaches its limit due to sudden acceleration. 2. In the suspension system, shock absorbers, suspension ball joints, and lower control arms are prone to issues. 3. The shock absorber is a damping component that reduces rapid and intense vibrations from the road into smaller and slower impacts, working in conjunction with suspension springs and rubber buffer elements.

How long before the expiration date should a driver's license be renewed?

Driver's licenses should be renewed 90 days before the expiration date. Key points to note during renewal: 1. The latest renewal can be done within three years after expiration; beyond three years, the license will be permanently revoked. 2. If the renewal period is exceeded by less than one year, the license will be in an 'overdue for renewal' status. The driver can renew it by submitting their ID card, expired driver's license, and a medical fitness certificate from a county-level or military hospital at the regiment level or above to the vehicle management office, without needing to take any tests. 3. If the renewal period is exceeded by one to three years, the license will be in a 'revocable but recoverable' status. Although revoked, it can be reinstated by passing the subject one test at the vehicle management office. 4. If the renewal period is exceeded by more than three years, the license will be in a 'revoked' status, with driving privileges canceled and irrecoverable. The driver must retake all required tests, similar to a new applicant, to obtain a new license.

How to Change the Transmission Oil for Volkswagen Teramont?

Volkswagen Teramont transmission oil change follows the same principle as engine oil change. After loosening the fastening nut at the bottom of the oil pan, the transmission oil will automatically drain from the oil drain hole. While this method is simple, it cannot completely drain the transmission oil. The incomplete drainage is mainly due to mechanical structures having dead corners such as recesses and depressions. The Volkswagen Teramont uses wet dual-clutch transmission oil (DCTFW), which is designed to keep the gear shift system clean, ensuring normal transmission operation and extending the lifespan of the transmission components. The body dimensions of the Volkswagen Teramont are 5039mm in length, 1989mm in width, and 1773mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2980mm.
