Car maintenance is essential. The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent failures, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. Minor maintenance is the most common type, typically performed once or twice a year for basic family cars. Routine minor maintenance includes replacing the oil filter, cabin air filter, air filter, and engine oil, followed by a check of the vehicle's electrical system, tires, and braking system. Car maintenance mainly covers the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and more.

Is Coasting in Neutral or in Gear More Fuel-Efficient?

Coasting in gear is more fuel-efficient. Below are specific details about vehicle coasting: 1. Coasting in Neutral: During coasting in neutral, the vehicle's engine continues to idle, meaning fuel is still required to maintain operation. This indicates that the engine runs for as long as the vehicle coasts in neutral, thus consuming fuel. Moreover, coasting in neutral can lead to inadequate lubrication, accelerating transmission wear. 2. Coasting in Gear: When the vehicle is in motion and the throttle is released to coast in gear, fuel injection decreases, and the engine quickly stops injecting fuel. However, ignition continues, resulting in an instantaneous fuel consumption of "0." Therefore, the farther the coasting distance, the more fuel is saved. Additionally, compared to coasting in neutral, coasting in gear continues ignition, especially in fuel-injected vehicles, leading to greater fuel savings and higher safety.

What is the pinout definition of the OBD diagnostic interface?

The automotive OBD diagnostic interface has a total of 16 pins, each representing different definitions. Generally, pin 2 is the bus positive, pin 4 is chassis ground, pin 5 is signal ground, pin 7 is the K-line, pin 10 is the bus negative, pin 15 is the L-line, and pin 16 is only for power supply or detecting battery voltage and current. The remaining pins are assigned functions by the manufacturer. The following is an introduction to automotive OBD: 1. The automotive instrument OBD is the On-Board Diagnostics system. 2. It allows maintenance personnel to read driving information and vehicle fault information fed back by the engine and other controllers. 3. OBD can store vehicle fault information. When we repair a vehicle and the fault light comes on, maintenance personnel will connect a data transmission cable to the OBD interface to quickly determine the fault and proceed with repairs. 4. It records vehicle driving information, such as engine conditions, oil temperature, water temperature, etc., allowing us to understand the vehicle's status at any time, thereby ensuring greater safety for the vehicle.
