A-pillar repair does not qualify as a salvage vehicle. Major salvage vehicle: A major salvage vehicle refers to a car that has been severely collided or impacted and requires repair through methods such as cutting, welding, or panel beating. After severe collision or impact, the longitudinal beams are bent, deformed, or fractured and then repaired; the rear quarter panels are cut or replaced after collision. Automobile repair: A, B, or C pillars severely deformed or bent in a collision and then repaired or replaced; the entire car rolls over in an accident, causing deformation, dents, or fractures to the entire body, which are then repaired. Damage to the outer panels or reinforcement parts does not qualify as a major salvage vehicle.

How to Properly Shift from 3rd Gear to 2nd Gear?

You should be quite familiar with the positions of the gears and the current gear position. For example, the third gear is above the neutral position. Next, observe the speed. Each gear has its own speed range, and the third gear is a transitional gear. When the speed is appropriate, press the clutch pedal all the way down with your left foot. Shift the gear from third to neutral. Master the correct hand posture for shifting, grip the gear lever firmly with all five fingers, and then perform the shift.
