The 10th-generation Civic tends to develop severe carbon deposits when using 95-octane gasoline because it is equipped with the Earth Dreams engine, which employs direct fuel injection exclusively. Comparatively, direct injection engines accumulate more carbon deposits in the combustion chamber than multi-point fuel injection engines. Taking the Civic 2016 180TURBO Manual Comfort Edition as an example: this vehicle is manufactured by Dongfeng Honda, classified as a compact car, and runs on gasoline. The car's dimensions are 4649mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1416mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It features a turbocharged intake system, front-wheel drive, and electric power steering.

What Causes the Exclamation Mark Light to Illuminate in a Car?

The reasons for the exclamation mark light illuminating in a car: 1. A red triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle is called a general fault light, which illuminates when the vehicle experiences a fault. Common issues include clutch overheating and fuel supply system malfunctions; 2. A red circular exclamation mark within brackets is the brake system warning light, which turns on when the handbrake is engaged; 3. A yellow exclamation mark with a line underneath within brackets is the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates only when the pressure in the vehicle's four tires is unbalanced or too low; 4. A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark inside is the lighting fault indicator light, indicating a fault in the car's light bulbs when it lights up; 5. A red steering wheel with an exclamation mark next to it is the steering system fault indicator light, which signals issues like power steering system failure, non-operation, or steering wheel lock when illuminated.

What are the 11 items in the Subject 3 simulated lighting test?

Driving at night without streetlights or under poor lighting conditions (headlights), meeting non-motor vehicles on narrow roads at night (low beam), following another vehicle closely in the same direction at night (low beam), meeting motor vehicles at night (low beam). Passing over an arch bridge or pedestrian crossing at night (alternating between high and low beams), navigating sharp turns or slopes at night (alternating between high and low beams), passing through intersections without traffic signals at night (alternating between high and low beams), experiencing a vehicle breakdown on the road at night that obstructs traffic and is difficult to move (parking lights and hazard warning lights), driving in foggy conditions (fog lights and hazard warning lights). Here are some key points: For example, use low beam when meeting or following another vehicle; use high beam when there are no lights or poor lighting conditions; alternate between high and low beams when passing through certain areas. Precautions: Before starting the test, always check the lights, as the previous examinee might not have reset them, which could affect your performance during the test; do not answer too quickly, listen carefully to the instructions, and wait until the voice prompt ends before acting, completing the action within 5 seconds; avoid operating too quickly to prevent the system from failing to detect the light switching signal.

What are the license plate letter codes for each city in Shandong Province?

Shandong Province's city-specific license plate letter codes are as follows: Lu A for Jinan, Lu B for Qingdao, Lu C for Zibo, Lu D for Zaozhuang, Lu E for Dongying, Lu F for Yantai, Lu G for Weifang, Lu H for Jining, Lu J for Tai'an, Lu K for Weihai, Lu L for Rizhao, Lu M for Binzhou, Lu N for Dezhou, Lu P for Liaocheng, Lu Q for Linyi, Lu S for Laiwu, Lu U as a supplementary code for Qingdao, Lu V as a supplementary code for Weifang, Lu W for provincial government agencies, and Lu Y as a supplementary code for Yantai. License plates, commonly referred to as vehicle tags, are plates affixed to the front and rear of vehicles. They are typically made of aluminum, sheet metal, plastic, or paper, and display the vehicle's registration number, registration region, and other relevant information.

Which gear should be used for automatic transmission cars when climbing a slope?

When climbing a slope with an automatic transmission, you should use the D gear or L gear. The L gear stands for low gear, and shifting to L gear locks the transmission in the 1-2 gear range. Climbing a slope requires greater torque to push the car upward and overcome the slope resistance. Owners of mid-to-high-end models prefer using the S gear for climbing slopes. Of course, the S gear provides very strong power, making it effortless for climbing. However, using the S gear for climbing can put the engine under high load, and prolonged use may damage the engine. The M gear is the manual mode for automatic transmission cars. Owners can manually shift up or down using "M+" and "M-", which is a more precise operation for climbing or overtaking based on actual driving conditions. Some models do not have L, D1, D2, M, or S gears. In fact, many modern cars are equipped with a hill-start assist system. Activating this function not only prevents rolling backward but also ensures a more stable start. For automatic transmission cars going downhill, you can use L, M, S, 1/2/3, or +/- gears. The main purpose is to keep the engine at a low speed while achieving a braking effect. Especially during long descents, keeping the car in D gear and continuously pressing the brake can easily cause the brake pads to overheat and lose braking effectiveness, which may seriously affect safety.

What is the starting RPM for an automatic transmission car?

For an automatic transmission car, an engine speed of 1200 to 1500 RPM is appropriate when starting. Since automatic cars already have an idle speed, it's sufficient to keep the RPM below 2000 when starting. When starting an automatic vehicle, especially for heavier models that require more torque to overcome inertia, the 'fixed throttle' method can be used: after engaging the clutch and shifting gears, slightly press the accelerator to stabilize the engine speed around 1500 RPM before gradually releasing the clutch using the 'fast, pause, slow' technique. This method ensures a smoother and more powerful start with reduced noise. When shifting gears in an automatic vehicle, shift to 2nd gear when the speed reaches 20 km/h and the RPM is between 1500-2000. Shift to 3rd gear when the RPM exceeds 2000, which typically corresponds to a speed near 30 km/h. Similarly, shift to 4th gear at 50 km/h. Shifting at 2000 RPM can lead to carbon buildup, so the fuel-efficient RPM range is 1500-2000. For a new automatic car during the initial break-in period, it's advisable not to exceed 2200 RPM. During the mid break-in period, keep the RPM below 3000, and it's also recommended not to exceed 3000 RPM in the later break-in stages.

What are the causes and solutions for icing in car air conditioning evaporators?

Car air conditioning evaporator icing causes and solutions are as follows: Compressor failure due to prolonged use: Reduced compression efficiency or damage to the compressor's gas distribution system can lead to excessively low pressure, causing icing. The icing typically occurs in the front part of the evaporator. Adding some refrigerant can resolve the issue. If the problem persists, the compressor must be replaced. Excessive refrigerant: Some air conditioners are refilled with refrigerant due to relocation or leaks. Improper handling by maintenance personnel may result in overfilling, causing excess refrigerant to flow to the rear part of the evaporator, where it evaporates and causes icing. This type of icing usually occurs in the rear part of the evaporator and around the compressor's return pipe. Releasing the excess refrigerant will resolve the issue. Dirty evaporator: After prolonged use, dust from the air or microorganisms generated by the evaporator can accumulate on the evaporator, obstructing airflow and reducing heat exchange. This leads to excessively low evaporator temperatures and icing. The icing typically occurs in the rear part of the evaporator. After the ice melts, rinse the evaporator with water and gently brush along the fins with a soft brush, being careful not to wet the electrical components. Cleaning thoroughly will resolve the issue.
