Dash cams do continue recording after the car is turned off, but the recording duration is not very long since the dash cam is not being charged once the vehicle is turned off. There are two types of parking monitoring functions for dash cams: one is continuous recording, and the other only activates short-term recording when the vehicle detects vibration. During the day, dash cams operate using the car's electrical power. When the vehicle is turned off, the dash cam stops functioning. Although many dash cams have built-in batteries, some can only last for four to five hours in standby mode, while others may only sustain recording for about half an hour. Therefore, dash cams cannot continue recording for extended periods after the car is turned off.

How Many Gears Does a Motorcycle Have?

Motorcycles currently have two main types of gear systems: the rotary gear and the sequential gear (also known as the international gear). Here are the relevant details: 1. Gear Introduction: The rotary gear follows a 0-1-2-3-4-5-0 cycle, while the international gear follows a 1-0-2-3-4-5 non-cyclic pattern, with neutral located between 1st and 2nd gear. 2. Starting Method for Clutch-Equipped Bikes: After starting the engine, shift into first gear, gradually release the clutch lever while gently applying throttle. As you feel the bike start to move forward, continue to apply throttle while releasing the clutch, coordinating both actions until you smoothly start moving. Then, gradually shift up to higher gears using the same method. When stopping, first reduce speed, then pull the clutch lever, downshift, and brake. It's best to shift into neutral before turning off the engine.

Can the Catalytic Converter Be Replaced with Just the Inner Core?

The catalytic converter cannot be replaced with just the inner core, as merely changing the inner core will not pass vehicle inspection. Below is an introduction to handling problematic catalytic converters: 1. Common Issue: 'Catalytic converter' clogging is a widespread problem, especially in cities with heavy traffic congestion and regions with poor fuel quality, where this issue is particularly prominent. 2. Hazards of Clogging: A clogged 'catalytic converter' not only significantly increases vehicle fuel consumption, reduces power, and causes exhaust emissions to exceed standards but, more seriously, can cause the exhaust pipe to overheat and potentially lead to vehicle fires. 3. Repair Methods: For a long time, auto repair shops have lacked effective prevention and treatment methods for 'catalytic converter' clogging. Therefore, the recommended approach for a clogged 'catalytic converter' is replacement.

Will using 98 octane gasoline instead of 95 octane harm the car?

It may potentially harm the vehicle. Below are the differences between 95 and 98 octane gasoline: 1. Different octane ratings: The octane number simply indicates the level of octane in the gasoline. The octane rating is determined by comparing the fuel's knock intensity with a standard mixture of isooctane and n-heptane. The percentage of isooctane in the standard fuel that produces the same knock intensity as the sample is the octane rating of the sample. 95 octane gasoline consists of 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane, while 98 octane gasoline consists of 98% isooctane and 2% n-heptane. 2. Different anti-knock combustion capabilities: The higher the octane rating, the better the anti-knock combustion performance. 95 octane gasoline: Moderate anti-knock combustion capability. 98 octane gasoline: Higher anti-knock performance and better power output. 3. Price differences: Generally, the higher the octane rating, the better the quality of the gasoline, and thus the more expensive it is. 95 octane gasoline: Mid-grade fuel. 98 octane gasoline: Higher quality with fewer harmful substances and lower exhaust emissions, hence the higher price.

What is the general replacement interval for antifreeze?

Under normal circumstances, the antifreeze in a car should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers or every 2 years. Here is some relevant information about antifreeze: 1. How antifreeze works: Antifreeze is the primary working medium in a car engine's cooling system, enabling the cooling system to maintain an appropriate operating temperature through forced circulation. 2. Functions of antifreeze: In addition to its antifreeze properties, antifreeze formulated with chemicals such as ethylene glycol not only resists low temperatures but also has excellent high-temperature resistance. 3. Antifreeze needs timely replenishment: Antifreeze evaporates quickly in summer, so it is important to regularly check if the antifreeze level is low. If it is low, replenish it with the same brand of antifreeze promptly, and do not use antifreeze from other brands or water.
