Can the car still be driven when the 'Service Tire Pressure Monitoring System' warning appears?

When the tire pressure check warning appears, the car can still be driven. However, abnormal tire pressure indicates possible issues such as air leakage, overinflation, or underinflation. To ensure driving safety, it is recommended to drive to the nearest tire repair shop for inspection. Standard tire pressure values: The standard tire pressure for normal tires is 2.4-2.5 bar; for reinforced tires, it's 2.8-2.9 bar. The maximum pressure should not exceed 3.5 bar. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure: The system typically alerts when pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In such cases, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring system not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure monitoring system isn't reset promptly, it continues to display the previous data, causing the tire pressure warning light to stay on. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged during driving (e.g., by hitting a curb), it can trigger the tire pressure warning light. In case of sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.

Do new cars still need high-speed running-in?

For new cars requiring high-speed running-in, it should be performed after the first maintenance. Before the first maintenance, avoid high RPM driving, sudden acceleration, and hard braking, keeping the speed below 100km/h. Some manufacturers specify new car usage instructions in the owner's manual. The key to high-speed running-in is increasing engine RPM across all gears, not merely achieving high speeds. This process allows the engine's ECU to record and store data from high-speed operation, benefiting both acceleration performance and fuel efficiency afterward. For vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions or CVTs, high-speed running-in can be conducted using the 3 or 2 gears below D mode.

What Certificates Are Needed for Car Repair?

Opening an auto repair shop requires the following certificates: Auto Repair License, Business License, Organization Code Certificate, Tax Registration Certificate, etc. Below are the relevant details: 1. Considerations: Choose a suitable initial team. Starting an auto repair shop not only requires technical skills but also a team, including sales and administrative staff. A repair shop cannot be fully supported by just one or two people; more team members are needed to work together to help the initial project develop faster. Selecting initial team members also has certain conditions and principles and should not be done blindly. 2. Office Location: Find a suitable office location. An auto repair shop has requirements for space—it cannot be too small, the roads should be accessible, and there should be adequate parking space. Only by meeting these three requirements can the shop attract car owners and generate business. Although the location can be somewhat remote, it should have convenient transportation and be sufficiently large.

Best Adjustment Method for C1 Subject 2 Rearview Mirrors?

First, locate the adjustment lever for the rearview mirrors on the front door of the exam vehicle. Use your thumb and index finger to grip the lever and adjust it up, down, left, or right to the desired position. Before adjusting the rearview mirrors, first adjust the seat to find a comfortable position. Once the seat position is fixed, proceed to adjust the rearview mirrors. Sit upright, tilt your head slightly to the left while focusing on the rearview mirror, and use your left hand to grip the adjustment lever. Directly adjusting to your preferred position might not be smooth. It is recommended to first set the rearview mirrors to a parallel, straight-backward position.

What Are the Reasons for the Dashboard of Geely Cars Not Lighting Up?

Geely car dashboard not lighting up reasons are as follows: Dashboard light damage: If the dashboard lights are damaged, they need to be replaced promptly; Power supply line failure: If the power supply line to the dashboard is damaged, resulting in an open circuit or short circuit, it can also cause the car dashboard not to light up; Fuse damage: If the power supply fuse for the car dashboard is blown, it naturally results in no power supply, and the dashboard will not light up. Battery issues: For example, if the battery has reached the end of its lifespan, or if the battery terminals are loose, making poor contact, or the terminals might be oxidized. Dashboard CPU damage: If all the indicator lights on the dashboard are not lighting up and the car shuts off immediately after starting, it is likely an issue with the dashboard, with a common cause being damage to the dashboard CPU.

Is Idling Warm-Up Necessary?

Modern vehicles do not require idling warm-up. In fact, idling warm-up can harm your car. The reasons are: during idling, the engine oil pressure is relatively low, leading to poorer lubrication conditions. Additionally, unburned fuel washing the cylinder walls or incomplete fuel combustion can easily cause carbon buildup, accelerating wear on moving parts. Below are specific damages caused by idling warm-up: 1. Shortened engine lifespan: During idling, the fuel ignition preparation time is prolonged, and reduced cylinder sealing can easily cause knocking sounds, leading to a shorter engine lifespan. 2. Increased fuel consumption: At low engine speeds, fuel atomization is less effective, resulting in incomplete combustion and poor heat dissipation, which increases fuel consumption. 3. Damage to the catalytic converter: Prolonged idling leads to excessively rich air-fuel mixtures and low oxygen content in the exhaust. If the mixture does not fully burn at the catalytic converter, it can easily overheat and fail.

How Many Kilometers Can You Actually Drive with a 170 km Range?

It depends on the specific vehicle and the driver's operation. With air conditioning on in summer, the range is about 140 km, while in winter without air conditioning, it's around 120 km. Below is some relevant information about vehicle mileage: 1. Odometer Explanation: The vehicle's odometer includes two rolling counters driven by the same flexible shaft, which respectively record the trip mileage and the total mileage. The trip mileage usually has four digits for short-term counting and can be reset; the total mileage has six digits and cannot be reset. 2. Vehicle Mileage Range: The continuous driving distance on certain road conditions with a full tank of fuel, generally 300–500 km for ordinary vehicles, while military vehicles usually achieve 600–800 km.
