CVT stands for automatic transmission. Here is an introduction about CVT: 1. Introduction: CVT represents the vehicle's transmission, specifically a continuously variable transmission. The difference between this type of transmission and other automatic transmissions is that the gear ratio is not intermittent but continuous, making it one of many transmission types. 2. Types: The first type is the AT transmission, known as the hydraulic automatic transmission, which was an early form of automatic transmission and is still used in some models today. The second type is the CVT transmission, a mechanical continuously variable automatic transmission, commonly used in Japanese models. The third type is the AMT transmission, an early form of transmission. The fourth type is the dual-clutch transmission, which features two sets of clutches and was first adopted by German vehicles.

What is the cause of P0171-00 fuel trim system lean?

P0171-00 fuel trim system lean fault causes are as follows: 1. Air leak after the mass air flow (MAF) sensor. 2. PCV system leak. 3. Oxygen sensor failure, exhaust leak near oxygen sensor. 4. EGR leak. 5. Mass air flow (MAF) sensor failure. 6. Fuel filter is too dirty, fuel pump supply insufficient. Solutions for P0171-00 fuel trim system lean fault: 1. Check oxygen sensor, inspect throttle intake manifold for leaks. 2. Fuel trim malfunction may cause default operations such as harsh shifting, ABS/traction control system warning light illumination, etc. Perform fuel system maintenance, drive at high speed for several kilometers, finally replace MAF to solve the problem.

What is the introduction of lubricating oil viscosity?

The viscosity grade of engine oil is closely related to the vehicle model and local temperature. Below is an introduction to its connection with vehicle models and local temperatures: 1. Vehicle model: Japanese cars prefer low-viscosity oil, while German cars prefer high-viscosity oil. 2. Local temperature: (1) 0W suitable temperature — -35°C (polar regions) (2) 5W suitable temperature — -30°C (northeast and northwest regions) (3) 10W suitable temperature — -25°C (north-central and southwest regions) (4) 15W suitable temperature — -20°C (north-central and southwest regions) (5) 20W suitable temperature — -15°C (areas south of the Yellow River and north of the Yangtze River) (6) 25W suitable temperature — -10°C (subtropical regions)

What does the P0016 trouble code mean?

P0016 trouble code indicates a fault between the crankshaft position and camshaft position. Generally, it may be caused by an unreasonable intake camshaft position. It is necessary to remove the timing cover and check whether the belt is broken, skipped teeth, or displaced, and then address the issue accordingly. Here are the troubleshooting methods for this fault: 1. After removing the timing cover, connect the engine oil pressure gauge to check whether the oil pressure is normal, whether the oil level is within the normal range, and whether the filter screen is clogged. 2. Use a multimeter to measure whether the VVT adjustment solenoid valve is damaged. Unplug the solenoid valve connector and then use a test light to measure the circuit voltage to detect any wiring issues.

What are the pedals in an automatic car from left to right?

In an automatic car, the pedals from left to right are the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal. Introduction to the Brake Pedal: The brake pedal, as the name suggests, is the pedal that limits power, i.e., the pedal for the foot brake. It is used to slow down or stop the vehicle and is one of the five major controls in car driving. It is used very frequently, and the driver's control over it directly affects driving safety. Situations where the brake pedal should be avoided: For small passenger cars going downhill for a long distance, it is recommended to use a lower gear and rely on engine braking to slow down, avoiding the use of the brake pedal as much as possible. For large vehicles or heavily loaded vehicles going downhill for a long distance, it is crucial not to keep the brake pedal pressed continuously; engine braking must be used instead. The reason for this is to prevent brake failure. Introduction to the Accelerator Pedal: The accelerator pedal, also known as the throttle pedal, is used to control the vehicle's speed. When accelerating or starting the car, it is important to press the accelerator pedal gently to prevent sudden jerks that could pose safety hazards. Precautions for Automatic Transmission Cars: Avoid sudden braking and stopping while driving; maintain a safe following distance, anticipate road conditions, and brake in advance. For automatic transmission models, when waiting at a red light for an extended period, do not keep the car in N (neutral) gear while continuously pressing the brake pedal. Instead, shift to N gear and engage the parking brake.
