Manual transmissions do have a gearbox. The gearbox is a mechanism used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, capable of fixing or changing the gear ratio between the output and input shafts in stages. It can modify the transmission ratio, direction of rotation, and set the neutral position. Types of gearboxes include: 1. Automatic transmission; 2. Semi-automatic transmission; 3. Continuously variable transmission (CVT). Maintenance methods for gearboxes: 1. Regularly check the gearbox oil level; 2. Understand the replacement cycle of gearbox oil; 3. Replace the gearbox oil correctly. The gearbox is not completely sealed, allowing water and dust to enter through air vents, so the transmission requires regular maintenance.

Which part is the wheel hub?

Automobile wheel hubs are mounted on the axles. Here are the relevant introductions: 1. Steel wheel hubs: The biggest advantage of steel wheel hubs is their simple manufacturing process, mostly using casting technology, with relatively low cost and strong resistance to metal fatigue. In summary, they are both cheap and sturdy. The disadvantages are also quite obvious, such as their relatively unattractive appearance, heavier weight, greater inertial resistance, average heat dissipation, and they are very prone to rust. 2. Alloy wheel hubs: Alloy wheel hubs are lighter in weight, have relatively smaller inertial resistance, and higher manufacturing precision. When rotating at high speeds, alloy wheel hubs have less deformation, which helps the car improve its ability to drive straight and can reduce fuel consumption. The heat dissipation of alloy wheel hubs is about three times that of steel wheel hubs, which plays a certain role in improving the car's braking ability. The materials used for alloy wheel hubs are mostly chromium, titanium, etc., and the manufacturing cost is higher.

How often should the engine oil and three filters be replaced?

The engine oil and three filters should generally be replaced every 6 months. Here is some information about engine oil: 1. Introduction: Engine oil, also known as motor oil or engine lubricant, is a substance enhanced with additives in a base oil. 2. Composition: It mainly contains anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade viscosity index improvers. Engine oil is used for lubricating internal combustion engines. 3. Function: The primary functions of engine oil are to reduce friction and wear on moving parts, remove sludge (one of the functions of dispersants) and varnish (detergents) from the engine. It also neutralizes acids produced from fuel and lubricant oxidation (detergents), improves the sealing of piston rings, and cools the engine by carrying away heat from moving parts.

Should You Look Both Ways When Passing Oncoming Vehicles?

When passing oncoming vehicles, you should look to the right. Below are the details about passing oncoming vehicles: 1. Introduction: Passing oncoming vehicles is a traffic term referring to vehicles traveling in opposite directions crossing paths at a certain point. 2. Regulations: (1) On roads without center lines, narrow roads, or narrow bridges, you should slow down, keep to the right, and pay attention to the safety of non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians. If passing is difficult, the party with the right-of-way should yield to the other. (2) On obstructed road sections, the party facing the obstruction should yield. (3) On narrow slopes, the party facing the obstruction should yield. (4) At night on roads without streetlights or with poor lighting, you should switch from high beams to low beams when the oncoming vehicle is 150 meters away. On narrow roads or bridges when passing non-motorized vehicles, continuous use of high beams is prohibited.

What does a Level 5 water-damaged vehicle mean?

Level 5 water-damaged vehicle: The water has completely submerged the engine compartment cover, at which point almost all electrical equipment inside the vehicle will be affected by the water. There are a total of six levels of water damage to vehicles, with the following descriptions: 1. Water damage level 1: The water has just reached the vehicle's chassis, and the vehicle floor may become damp, but the likelihood of significant water ingress is low, and the impact on the electrical equipment inside the vehicle is minimal. 2. Water damage level 2: The water has submerged half of the wheels. Due to the incomplete sealing of the vehicle, water will begin to enter the interior. For lower-bodied sedans, the water level inside may affect the adjustment motors of the vehicle seats as well as electrical components such as heating and ventilation. 3. Water damage level 3: The water has almost completely submerged the tires. At this point, the water level inside the vehicle will completely submerge the seat cushions and the central armrest area, while also affecting a large number of electrical devices.
