Bestune X40 clutch can be adjusted if it's too high. The adjustment steps are: 1. Turn off the engine, pull the handbrake, and shift to neutral; 2. Remove the plastic panel with the light and pull out the light wire; 3. Use an open-end wrench to loosen counterclockwise for adjustment (clockwise lowers it, counterclockwise raises it); 4. Tighten the fixing screw clockwise; 5. Reinstall the plastic panel to its original position. The Bestune X40 is a 5-door, 5-seater compact SUV with body dimensions of 4310mm in length, 1780mm in width, 1680mm in height, a wheelbase of 2600mm, a luggage compartment capacity of 375 liters, and a curb weight of 1290kg.

The clutch pedal of the Besturn X40 is indeed adjustable if it's too high. I've driven this car for two years and encountered the same issue. A high pedal makes driving tiring and gear shifting less smooth. After some research, I found it's mostly cable-operated. Just open the hood, locate the adjustment nut, and loosen it slightly with a wrench. Test driving afterward feels much better. However, be careful not to over-loosen it—keeping the free play around 10-15mm is ideal. Too tight and the clutch disc wears out faster; too loose and it consumes more fuel. After adjustment, driving becomes much easier. I recommend regular checks to prevent potential safety hazards. For those with DIY skills, doing it yourself saves money and isn't too difficult.

Does Using the Car Heater Consume Fuel?

Using the car heater does not consume fuel because the warm air is generated by the engine's cooling system. During the process of cooling the engine, a small fan directs the heat into the cabin. The correct way to use the heater is: 1. Start the engine and let it warm up first. 2. Once the engine temperature gauge reaches the middle position, turn on the heater. 3. Set the air circulation to external to allow the cold air inside the car to be expelled. 4. After 2 to 3 minutes, switch the air circulation to internal. Important notes: 1. Avoid directing the air vents toward people, as this can dry out the skin. 2. It's advisable to slightly open the windows for better air circulation; using a car humidifier can also help maintain moisture inside the cabin.

How Many Liters of Transmission Fluid Should Be Added to a Car?

Approximately 4 liters of transmission fluid should be added to a car. Transmission fluid is a lubricant used to keep the gear system clean, and its functions include: 1. Ensuring the normal operation of the transmission and extending the lifespan of the transmission components; 2. Providing effective lubrication at low temperatures; 3. Reducing fluid loss under harsh operating conditions. The method for replacing car transmission fluid is as follows: 1. Remove the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old fluid; 2. Remove the inner and outer transmission covers; 3. Take out the transmission fluid filter; 4. Remove the oil pan gasket and clean the surrounding stains; 5. Wipe the cleaned transmission fluid filter with cotton thread; 6. Add the new fluid and complete the installation.

What to Do When There's Water Under the Car Floor Mats?

The reasons for water accumulation under the car floor mats are as follows: 1. Check if the sunroof drainage pipe is clogged. Fully open the sunroof, and you will see a groove. Slowly pour water into the groove, which is the sunroof drainage pipe, to see if the water drains out or gets blocked. The outlet of this drainage pipe should be on the A-pillar or C-pillar of the car. 2. Inspect the door drainage pipes. Similarly, open the door, and you will find many small holes at the bottom of the door, which are the drainage holes. Check if they are clogged. 3. If the air conditioning system is damaged, it may leak water into the passenger side footwell.

Can You Continue Driving with Overheated Brake Discs?

You should not continue driving with overheated brake discs. Below are the relevant details: 1. Friction: The working principle of brakes mainly relies on friction, which converts the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into thermal energy through the friction between the brake pads and discs (or drums), as well as between the tires and the ground, thereby stopping the vehicle. Therefore, any abnormal condition of the brake pads must be addressed immediately. 2. Thickness: Under normal driving conditions, the brake pads should be inspected every 5,000 kilometers. This inspection should not only include checking the remaining thickness but also the wear condition of the pads, whether the wear is even on both sides, and whether the pads retract smoothly. Any abnormalities must be dealt with immediately.
